Add a generic mechanism to the VO to relay "extra" events from VO to
player. Use it to notify the core of window resizes, which in turn will
be used to mark all affected properties ("window-scale" in this case) as
changed.
(I refrained from hacking this as internal command into input_ctx, or to
poll the state change, etc. - but in the end, maybe it would be best to
actually pass the client API context directly to the places where events
can happen.)
So talking to a certain Intel dev, it sounded like modern VA-API drivers
are reasonable thread-safe. But apparently that is not the case. Not at
all. So add approximate locking around all vaapi API calls.
The problem appeared once we moved decoding and display to different
threads. That means the "vaapi-copy" mode was unaffected, but decoding
with vo_vaapi or vo_opengl lead to random crashes.
Untested on real Intel hardware. With the vdpau emulation, it seems to
work fine - but actually it worked fine even before this commit, because
vdpau was written and designed not by morons, but competent people
(vdpau is guaranteed to be fully thread-safe).
There is some probability that this commit doesn't fix things entirely.
One problem is that locking might not be complete. For one, libavcodec
_also_ accesses vaapi, so we have to rely on our own guesses how and
when lavc uses vaapi (since we disable multithreading when doing hw
decoding, our guess should be relatively good, but it's still a lavc
implementation detail). One other reason that this commit might not
help is Intel's amazing potential to fuckup anything that is good and
holy.
Until now, failure to allocate image data resulted in a crash (i.e.
abort() was called). This was intentional, because it's pretty silly to
degrade playback, and in almost all situations, the OOM will probably
kill you anyway. (And then there's the standard Linux overcommit
behavior, which also will kill you at some point.)
But I changed my opinion, so here we go. This change does not affect
_all_ memory allocations, just image data. Now in most failure cases,
the output will just be skipped. For video filters, this coincidentally
means that failure is treated as EOF (because the playback core assumes
EOF if nothing comes out of the video filter chain). In other
situations, output might be in some way degraded, like skipping frames,
not scaling OSD, and such.

Let the VOs draw the OSD on their own, instead of making OSD drawing a
separate VO driver call. Further, let it be the VOs responsibility to
request subtitles with the correct PTS. We also basically allow the VO
to request OSD/subtitles at any time.
OSX changes untested.
mpv supports two hardware decoding APIs on Linux: vdpau and vaapi. Each
of these has emulation wrappers. The wrappers are usually slower and
have fewer features than their native opposites. In particular the libva
vdpau driver is practically unmaintained.
Check the vendor string and print a warning if emulation is detected.
Checking vendor strings is a very stupid thing to do, but I find the
thought of people using an emulated API for no reason worse.
Also, make --hwdec=auto never use an API that is detected as emulated.
This doesn't work quite right yet, because once one API is loaded,
vo_opengl doesn't unload it, so no hardware decoding will be used if the
first probed API (usually vdpau) is rejected. But good enough.
Reduce most dependencies on struct mp_csp_details, which was a bad first
attempt at dealing with colorspace stuff. Instead, consistently use
mp_image_params.
Code which retrieves colorspace matrices from csputils.c still uses this
type, though.
It's not really needed to be public. Other code can just use mp_image.
The only disadvantage is that the other code needs to call an accessor
to get the VASurfaceID.
Although I at first thought it would be better to have a separate
implementation for hwaccels because the difference to software images
are too large, it turns out you can actually save some code with it.
Note that the old implementation had a small memory management bug. This
got painted over in commit 269c1e1, but is hereby solved properly.
Also note that I couldn't test vf_vavpp.c (due to lack of hardware), and
I hope I didn't accidentally break it.
vo->aspdat is basically an outdated version of vo->params, plus some
weirdness. Get rid of it, which will allow further cleanups and which
will make multithreading easier (less state to care about).
Also, simplify some VO code by using mp_image_set_attributes() instead
of caring about display size, colorspace, etc. manually. Add the
function osd_res_from_image_params(), which is often needed in the case
OSD renders into an image.
Do two things:
1. add locking to struct osd_state
2. make struct osd_state opaque
While 1. is somewhat simple, 2. is quite horrible. Lots of code accesses
lots of osd_state (and osd_object) members. To make sure everything is
accessed synchronously, I prefer making osd_state opaque, even if it
means adding pretty dumb accessors.
All of this is meant to allow running VO in their own threads.
Eventually, VOs will request OSD on their own, which means osd_state
will be accessed from foreign threads.
This ended up a little bit messy. In order to get a mp_log everywhere,
mostly make use of the fact that va_surface already references global
state anyway.
PIX_FMT_VDA_VLD and PIX_FMT_VAAPI_VLD were never used anywhere. I'm not
sure why they were even added, and they sound like they are just for
compatibility with XvMC-style decoding, which sucks anyway.
Now that there's only a single vaapi format, remove the
IMGFMT_IS_VAAPI() macro. Also get rid of IMGFMT_IS_VDA(), which was
unused.
This is not needed anymore, because we decided that the PAR of the
decoded video matters, and not the PAR of the filtered video that
arrives at the VO.
This means most code accessing this struct must now include hwdec.h
instead of dec_video.h. I just put it into dec_video.h at first because
I thought a separate file would be a waste, but it's more proper to do
it this way, as there are too many files which include dec_video.h only
to get the mp_hwdec_info definition.
The configure followed 5 different convetions of defines because the next guy
always wanted to introduce a new better way to uniform it[1]. For an
hypothetic feature 'hurr' you could have had:
* #define HAVE_HURR 1 / #undef HAVE_DURR
* #define HAVE_HURR / #undef HAVE_DURR
* #define CONFIG_HURR 1 / #undef CONFIG_DURR
* #define HAVE_HURR 1 / #define HAVE_DURR 0
* #define CONFIG_HURR 1 / #define CONFIG_DURR 0
All is now uniform and uses:
* #define HAVE_HURR 1
* #define HAVE_DURR 0
We like definining to 0 as opposed to `undef` bcause it can help spot typos
and is very helpful when doing big reorganizations in the code.

Before, a VO could easily refuse to respond to VOCTRL_REDRAW_FRAME,
which means the VO wouldn't redraw OSD and window contents, and the
player would appear frozen to the user. This was a bit stupid, and makes
dealing with some corner cases much harder (think of --keep-open, which
was hard to implement, because the VO gets into this state if there are
no new video frames after a seek reset).
Change this, and require VOs to always react to VOCTRL_REDRAW_FRAME.
There are two aspects of this: First, behavior after a (successful)
vo_reconfig() call, but before any video frame has been displayed.
Second, behavior after a vo_seek_reset().
For the first issue, we define that sending VOCTRL_REDRAW_FRAME after
vo_reconfig() should clear the window with black. This requires minor
changes to some VOs. In particular vaapi makes this horribly
complicated, because OSD rendering is bound to a video surface. We
create a black dummy surface for this purpose.
The second issue is much simpler and works already with most VOs: they
simply redraw whatever has been uploaded previously. The exception is
vdpau, which has a complicated mechanism to track and filter video
frames. The state associated with this mechanism is completely cleared
with vo_seek_reset(), so implementing this to work as expected is not
trivial. For now, we just clear the window with black.
Don't allocate a VAImage and a mp_image every time. VAImage are cached
in the surfaces themselves, and for mp_image an explicit pool is
created. The retry loop runs only once for each surface now.
This also makes use of vaDeriveImage() if possible.
The code using FFSWAP was moved from vo_vaapi.c to vaapi.c, which didn't
include libavutil/common.h anymore, just libavutil/avutil.h. The header
avutil.h doesn't include common.h recursively in Libav, so it broke
there.
Add FFSWAP as MPSWAP in mp_common.h (copy pasted from ffmpeg) to make
sure this doesn't happen again. (This kind of stuff happens all too
often, so screw libavutil.)
Merged from pull request #246 by xylosper. Minor cosmetic changes, some
adjustments (compatibility with older libva versions), and manpage
additions by wm4.

mp_image_set_params() doesn't check whether the colorspace parameters
are consistent (e.g. setting YUV colorspaces with RGB formats), and
shouldn't need to.
This reverts commit 689a25003f, with some
adjustments to code that was added after that commit.
I just messed up big time. We don't need this, and in fact the commit
confused straight and premultiplied alpha at one point (just a simple
inverted condition due to an oversight), which is why it looked like
it was working.
In commit 2827295 I wrote:
Also, libva can't decide whether it accepts straight or premultiplied
alpha for OSD sub-pictures [...]
That was just me messing up and being severely confused by my own bugs.
VA API uses premultiplied alpha, which by the way is nice and
thoughtful of the VA API devs.
Well, this was stupid. But in the end, I'm glad that I could actually
reduce codesize by a good amount again.
This is based on the MPlayer VA API patches. To be exact it's based on
a very stripped down version of commit f1ad459a263f8537f6c from
git://gitorious.org/vaapi/mplayer.git.
This doesn't contain useless things like benchmarking hacks and the
demo code for GLX interop. Also, unlike in the original patch, decoding
and video output are split into separate source files (the separation
between decoding and display also makes pixel format hacks unnecessary).
On the other hand, some features not present in the original patch were
added, like screenshot support.
VA API is rather bad for actual video output. Dealing with older libva
versions or the completely broken vdpau backend doesn't help. OSD is
low quality and should be rather slow. In some cases, only either OSD
or subtitles can be shown at the same time (because OSD is drawn first,
OSD is prefered).
Also, libva can't decide whether it accepts straight or premultiplied
alpha for OSD sub-pictures: the vdpau backend seems to assume
premultiplied, while a native vaapi driver uses straight. So I picked
straight alpha. It doesn't matter much, because the blending code for
straight alpha I added to img_convert.c is probably buggy, and ASS
subtitles might be blended incorrectly.
Really good video output with VA API would probably use OpenGL and the
GL interop features, but at this point you might just use vo_opengl.
(Patches for making HW decoding with vo_opengl have a chance of being
accepted.)
Despite these issues, decoding seems to work ok. I still got tearing
on the Intel system I tested (Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-2350M). It was also
tested with the vdpau vaapi wrapper on a nvidia system; however this
was rather broken. (Fortunately, there is no reason to use mpv's VAAPI
support over native VDPAU.)
