image_writer.c has code originating from vf_screenshot.c, vo_jpeg.c, and
potentially others. vo_image.c is based on a bunch of those VOs as well,
and the intention was to replace them with a single codebase.
vo_tga.c was written by someone who was not or not could be contacted,
but it doesn't matter anyway, as no code from that initial patch was
used.
One rather old patch (57f77bb41a) reordered by libjpeg patch API calls,
and the author of the patch was not contacted. But at least with the
smoothing_factor override removed, this pretty much exactly corresponds
to the official libjpeg API example (and might even reflect a change to
those - didn't dig deeper). This removes the -jpeg-smooth option. While
we're at it, remove all the other dropped jpeg options from the manpage
(which was forgotten in past changes).
It was an attempt to move some MPlayer filters (which were removed from
mpv) to external, loadable filters. That worked well, but then the
MPlayer filters were ported to libavfilter (independently), so they're
available again. Also there is a more widely supported and more advanced
loadable filter system supported by mpv: vapoursynth.
In conclusion, vf_dlopen is not useful anymore, confusing, and requires
quite a bit of code (and probably wouldn't survive the rewrite of the
mpv video filter chain, which has to come at some point). It has some
implicit dependencies on internal conventions, like possibly the format
names dropped in the previous commit.
We also deprecated it last release. Drop it.
Before this, options with co->data==NULL (i.e. no storage) were not
added to the bridge (except alias options). There are a few options
which might make sense to allow via the bridge ("profile" and
"include"). So allow them.
In command_init(), we merely remove the co->data check, the rest of the
diff is due to switching the if/else branches for convenience.
We also must explicitly error on M_PROPERTY_GET if co->data==NULL. All
other cases check it in some way.
Explicitly exclude options from the property bridge, which would be
added due this, and the result would be pointless.
Implements JS with almost identical API to the Lua support.
Key differences from Lua:
- The global mp, mp.msg and mp.utils are always available.
- Instead of returning x, error, return x and expose mp.last_error().
- Timers are JS standard set/clear Timeout/Interval.
- Supports CommonJS modules/require.
- Added at mp.utils: getenv, read_file, write_file and few more.
- Global print and dump (expand objects) functions.
- mp.options currently not supported.
See DOCS/man/javascript.rst for more details.
Not all tools apply line breaking. Which is probably good, because you
wouldn't be able to put lines in there which should _not_ be broken.
Don't ask me whether there is an "official" git convention for this.
Sometime earlier, "sub-ass-style-override" was renamed to
"sub-ass-override". The option's documentation was updated to support
this, but not the documentation for the hotkey that toggles this option.
This commit updates the keyboard shortcut documentation to fix that.

I call it `mobius` because apparently the form f(x) = (cx+a)/(dx+b) is
called a Möbius transform, which is the algorithm this is based on. In
the extremes it becomes `reinhard` (param=0.0 and `clip` (param=1.0),
smoothly transitioning between the two depending on the parameter.
This is a useful tone mapping algorithm since the tunable mobius
transform allows the user to decide the trade-off between color accuracy
and detail preservation on a continuous scale. The default of 0.3 is
already far more accurate than `reinhard` while also being reasonably
good at preserving highlights, without suffering from the overall
brightness drop and color distortion of `hable`.
For these reasons, make this the new default. Also expand and improve
the documentation for these tone mapping functions.
List of changes:
1. Rename `signfs` to `scale`, to better match what it actually does
(force --sub-scale to apply to ASS subtitles), and fix the blatantly
wrong documentation (it actually specifically does *not* apply to
signs)
2. Rename `--sub-ass-style-override` to `--sub-ass-override` to help
reduce confusion between it and `--sub-ass-force-style`, as well as
pointing out that it doesn't necessarily actually override styles.
(The new `scale` option, for example, only sets
ASS_OVERRIDE_BIT_FONT_SIZE, but not ASS_OVERRIDE_BIT_STYLE)
3. Mention that `--sub-ass-override` is generally sort of smart about
only overriding dialog, not signs.
In a multi GPU scenario, it may be desirable to use different GPUs
for decode and display responsibilities. For example, if a secondary
GPU has better video decoding capabilities.
In such a scenario, we need to initialise a separate context for each
GPU, and use the display context in hwdec_cuda, while passing the
decode context to avcodec.
Once that's done, the actually hand-off between the two GPUs is
transparent to us (It happens during the cuMemcpy2D operation which
copies the decoded frame from a cuda buffer to the OpenGL texture).
In the end, the bulk of the work is around introducing a new
configuration option to specify the decode device.
Update man page for fonts.conf and subfont.ttf. These are two
undocumented features in mpv. They were only hardcoded into sub/ass_mp.c
and could not be found anywhere else in the entire codebase. Git log
reveals that fonts.conf was added in 2013 while subfont.ttf was brought
in by a ancient patch of mplayer in 2002...
These are two quite useful undocumented features when you do not want to
mess up with global fonts.conf to include more fonts.
Also document ~/.config/mpv/fonts/ directory and suggest using fonts.conf
to include additional fonts.
mpv reads all files in ~/.config/mpv/fonts/ directory into memory. If
there are a lot of fonts in that directory, mpv would use a lot of
memory. Using ~/.config/mpv/fonts.conf to include additional fonts is
more memory-efficent.
af_volume is deprecated, and so are its replaygain sub-options. To make
it possible to use replaygain without deprecated options (and of course
to make it available at all after af_volume is dropped), reintroduce
them as top-level options.
This also means that they are easily changeable at runtime by using them
as properties. Change the "volume" property to use the new update
mechanism as well.
We don't actually bother sharing the implementation between new and
deprecated mechanisms, as the deprecated one will simply be deleted.
For the from_dB() functions, we mention anders' copyright, although I'm
not sure if a mere formula is copyrightable. This will have to be
determined later.
This whole change is mostly untested. Our distributed human CI will take
care of it.
It's all explained in the DOCS changes. Although this option was always
kind of obscure and pointless. Until it is removed, the only reason for
setting it would be to raise the static default limit, so change its
default to INT_MAX so that it does nothing by default.
Instead of pausing if --keep-open is active, stop
at end but continue playing if seeking backwards.
And then stop again when end is reached.

Over the PR, the option was renamed, and the manpage additions were
slightly changed/enhanced.
Also "announce" the plans to undeprecate it with changed semantics
later. The deprecation period is needed to warn script authors and
client API users (etc.) of the change.
This is done because everyone seems to expect --loop to loop the current
file, not the playlist. Even in cases when only 1 file is on the
playlist, the --loop-file semantics seem to be preferred.
Mostly because of ANGLE (sadly).
The implementation became unpleasantly big, but at least it's relatively
self-contained.
I'm not sure to what degree shaders from different drivers are
compatible as in whether a driver would randomly misbehave if it's fed
a binary created by another driver. The useless binayFormat parameter
won't help it, as they can probably easily clash. As usual, OpenGL is
pretty shit here.
Now you can for example do "--vf=hue=h=60" - there is no "hue" filter in
mpv, so libavfilter's will be used.
This has certain caveats (see manpage).
The point of this is providing a relatively smooth transition path to
removing our own filter stuff.
The plan is to nuke the custom filter chain completely. It's not clear
what will happen to the still needed builtin filters (mostly hardware
deinterlacing and vf_vapoursynth). Most likely we'll replace them with
different filter chain concept (whose main purpose will be providing
builtin things and bridging to libavfilter).
The undocumented "warn" options are there to disable deprecation
warnings when the player inserts filter automatically.
The same will be done to audio filters, at a later point.
And also change input.conf to make all screenshots async. (Except the
every-frame mode, which always uses synchronous mode and ignores the
flag.) By default, the "screenshot" command is still asynchronous,
because scripts etc. might depend on this behavior.
This is only partially async. The code for determining the filename is
still always run synchronously. Only encoding the screenshot and writing
it to disk is asynchronous. We explicitly document the exact behavior as
undefined, so it can be changed any time.
Some of this is a bit messy, because I wanted to avoid duplicating the
message display code between sync and async mode. In async mode, this is
called from a worker thread, which is not safe because showing a message
accesses the thread-unsafe OSD code. So the core has to be locked during
this, which implies accessing the core and all that. So the code has
weird locking calls, and we need to do core destruction in a more
"controlled" manner (thus the outstanding_async field).
(What I'd really want would be the OSD simply showing log messages
instead.)
This is pretty untested, so expect bugs.
Fixes#4250.
Obviously, this has no effect on commands which do not support this
explicitly. A later commit will enable this for screenshots.
Also add some wording on mpv_command_async(), which has nothing to do
with this. Having a more elegant, unified behavior would be nice. But
the API function was not created for this - it's merely for running
commands _synchronously_ on the core, but without blocking the client
API caller (if the API user consistently uses only async functions).
for a reason i can just assume some key events can vanish from the
event chain and mpv seems unresponsive.
after quite some testing i could confirm that the events are present at
the first entry point of the event chain, the sendEvent method of the
Application, and that they vanish at a point afterwards. now we use
that entry point to grab keyDown and keyUp events. we also stop
propagating those key events to prevent the no key input' error sound.
if we ever need the key events somewhere down the event chain we need
to start propagating them again. though this is not necessary currently.
"@name:!" becomes simply "@name". This is actually slightly more complex
to parse, but makes for a much simpler syntax and will be less weird to
the user. Suggested by haasn.
The old syntax is now rejected with an error.
Also add some more explicit error checks, instead of e.g. allowing empty
filter names and erroring only when it's not found.
