Use ffmpeg (stream_lavf) instead of internal mms support (asf_streaming.c)
for mms://, mmsh://, mmst:// URLs.
The old implementation is available under mp_mms:// etc.
There are some caveats with this:
- mms:// now always maps to mmsh://. It won't try mmst://. (I'm not sure
if mms:// URLs really can use the mmst protocol, though.)
- MMS streams under the http:// prefix are not handled. (ffmpeg ticket
#2001.) (Was already broken in mpv since c02f25.)
- It downloads all video streams now. MMS streams often have redundant
video streams, which encode the main stream at different quality. The
client is supposed to select one according to its bandwidth
requirements. (Explicit MMS stream selection has been broken in mpv
for a while, because MPOpts.vid maps to the stream number, not the
demuxer's stream ID - but the old logic doesn't work anyway when
using demuxer_lavf as opposed to demux_asf.)
stream ftp: Pass full buffer size to snprintf
Previously the buffer size was always passed as one less than
the underlying buffer's size. This is not using the underlying
buffer to its full potential according to the C99 standard. The
last byte of the buffers were never used.
No vulnerabilities should have been caused by this mistake because
the strings stored in the buffers were zero terminated at all
times. Neither were out-of-array writes nor reads possible.

When the cache fill status goes below a certain threshold, automatically
pause the player. When the cache is filled again, unpause again.
This is intended to help with streaming from http. It's better to pause
a while, rather than exposing extremely crappy behavior when packet
reads during decoding block the entire player.
In theory, we should try to increase the cache if underruns happen too
often. Unfortunately, changing the cache implementation would be very
hard, because it's insane code (forks, uses shared memory and "volatile"
etc.). So for now, this just reduces the frequency of the stuttering if
the network is absolutely too slow to play the stream in realtime.
The internal mplayer http implementation is terrible and old. Try to use
ffmpeg instead. Enable ffmpeg https as well (we don't have native
support for it and never will).
Enable the cache for ffmpeg streams. In theory, we want to enable the
cache for network streams only (or at least, not enable it for files),
but there doesn't seem to be any way to query this. ffmpeg has its own
read-cache, but apparently it doesn't get filled asynchronously (only
to the degree internal socket/kernel buffers do).
Should it turn out that the mplayer implementation is better than
ffmpeg's in some way (unlikely), this commit might be reverted until
ffmpeg is ready. So far, the ffmpeg implementation seems to work very
well though.
The original mplayer stream implementation is made available under
"mp_http://" and "mp_http_proxy://". This is for testing, until the
http implementation is completely removed. Note that this is unlikely
to happen soon: ffmpeg doesn't support Microsoft streaming, while
mplayer has some support. This code has dependencies on http.
Note: "http_proxy://" doesn't work anymore. Use "httpproxy://" to get
the ffmpeg implementation of it.
Using https requires enabling OpenSSL in ffmpeg by adding
the --enable-openssl switch to ffmpeg's configure.
This commit is separate from the previous one to separate our own
changes from changes merged from mplayer2 (as far as that was possible).
Make it easier for stream implementations to request being cached. Set
a default cache size in stream.c, and remove them from various stream
implementations. Only MS streaming support sets a meaningful cache size.
Make querying cache size saner. This reduces the amount of #ifdefs
needed.
Code enabling the cache by default for network streams did that by
modifying the value of the "cache" option. This wasn't sane, as
multiple streams may be created and all share the same options. Change
the code to not modify options but store data in the stream instance
instead.

Merged from mplayer2 commit e26070. Note that this doesn't solve any
actual bug, as the playlist crashing bug has been fixed before.
Since the global cache size option value is not overwritten anymore, the
option doesn't need to be restored on end of playback (M_OPT_LOCAL).
libavdevice supports various "special" video and audio inputs, such
as screen-capture or libavfilter filter graphs.
libavdevice inputs are implemented as demuxers. They don't use the
custom stream callbacks (in AVFormatContext.pb). Instead, input
parameters are passed as filename. This means the mpv stream layer has
to be disabled. Do this by adding the pseudo stream handler avdevice://,
whose only purpose is passing the filename to demux_lavf, without
actually doing anything.
Change the logic how the filename is passed to libavformat. Remove
handling of the filename from demux_open_lavf() and move it to
lavf_check_file(). (This also fixes a possible bug when skipping the
"lavf://" prefix.)
libavdevice now can be invoked by specifying demuxer and args as in:
mpv avdevice://demuxer:args
The args are passed as filename to libavformat. When using libavdevice
demuxers, their actual meaning is highly implementation specific. They
don't refer to actual filenames.
Note:
libavdevice is disabled by default. There is one problem: libavdevice
pulls in libavfilter, which in turn causes symbol clashes with mpv
internals. The problem is that libavfilter includes a mplayer filter
bridge, which is used to interface with a set of nearly unmodified
mplayer filters copied into libavfilter. This filter bridge uses the
same symbol names as mplayer/mpv's filter chain, which results in symbol
clashes at link-time.
This can be prevented by building ffmpeg with --disable-filter=mp, but
unfortunately this is not the default.
This means linking to libavdevice (which in turn forces linking with
libavfilter by default) must be disabled. We try doing this by compiling
a test file that defines one of the clashing symbols (vf_mpi_clear).
To enable libavdevice input, ffmpeg should be built with the options:
--disable-filter=mp
and mpv with:
--enable-libavdevice
Originally, I tried to auto-detect it. But the resulting complications
in configure did't seem worth the trouble.

Remove the code that attempted to read cookie files from well-known
browser locations. This code was written for ancient browsers, and only
knew about Mozilla and Netscape. While it's possible that these browsers
are still alive and still use the same config locations and cookie file
formats, the only Mozilla-based browser that still matters is Firefox.
Firefox uses a sqlite database for cookies, located in a slightly
different config path.
Just remove this code.
The function fixup_network_stream_cache() accesses stream->opts, which
is NULL in some cases when loading playlists. stream->opts is a pointer
to the global MPOpts struct. For simplicity, this parameter is left
NULL in some cases. Usually, this doesn't matter, because barely
anything in stream/ uses MPOpts anyway.
Hack-fix this for now by not accessing MPOpts and disabling the stream
cache in this case. Calling open_stream() with options==NULL now
basically means: do not use cache settings.
Finish renaming directories and moving files. Adjust all include
statements to make the previous commit compile.
The two commits are separate, because git is bad at tracking renames
and content changes at the same time.
Also take this as an opportunity to remove the separation between
"common" and "mplayer" sources in the Makefile. ("common" used to be
shared between mplayer and mencoder.)
Tis drops the silly lib prefixes, and attempts to organize the tree in
a more logical way. Make the top-level directory less cluttered as
well.
Renames the following directories:
libaf -> audio/filter
libao2 -> audio/out
libvo -> video/out
libmpdemux -> demux
Split libmpcodecs:
vf* -> video/filter
vd*, dec_video.* -> video/decode
mp_image*, img_format*, ... -> video/
ad*, dec_audio.* -> audio/decode
libaf/format.* is moved to audio/ - this is similar to how mp_image.*
is located in video/.
Move most top-level .c/.h files to core. (talloc.c/.h is left on top-
level, because it's external.) Park some of the more annoying files
in compat/. Some of these are relicts from the time mplayer used
ffmpeg internals.
sub/ is not split, because it's too much of a mess (subtitle code is
mixed with OSD display and rendering).
Maybe the organization of core is not ideal: it mixes playback core
(like mplayer.c) and utility helpers (like bstr.c/h). Should the need
arise, the playback core will be moved somewhere else, while core
contains all helper and common code.
Found by clang analyzer. This called strlen(NULL), if the uri field

Make stream_ffmpeg handle rtsp:// URLs by default, without requiring
ffmpeg://rtsp://. Previously (after removal of other rtsp
implementations) rtsp:// fell back to using HTTP, which was unlikely
to work.
Also add lavf:// as an alternative to ffmpeg:// to force the stream
implementation. Since libavformat can come from Libav rather than
FFmpeg, using the ffmpeg name in the prefix is misleading.
open_stream() and open_output_stream() checked for filename==NULL, and
if true, printed an error message asking to report this as bug.
Internal logic errors should just crash. Use assert() instead.
Clean up handling of libquvi (which resolves URLs of streaming sites
into URLs to the actual media playable by mpv). Move the code out of
open.c to quvi.c, and invoke it explicitly from mplayer.c, instead of
trying to resolve every filename passed to open_stream().
This allows easily passing metadata from the quvi context to the
frontend. Expose QUVIPROP_PAGETITLE as "media-title" property, and use
that instead of "filename" for the mplayer window title. (For YouTube,
this is the video title.) It's cleaner too.
Handle a potential reliability issue: check quvi_getprop return values.
Since open.c contains barely anything but the open_stream() stub, move
that to stream.c and delete open.c.
This changes the name of this project to mpv. Most user-visible mentions

Previously, Matroska source files other than the initially opened one
were always accessed without caching. Enable cache for extra files
too. A separate cache process/thread is started for each file, which
is less than optimal but probably better than no caching if the user
explicitly enabled cache. This commit only implements caching for
Matroska ordered chapters (not for EDL timeline).
To build the timeline we need to demux the files in the current
directory to look for segments with matching uuid. This first demux is
done with no cache since we don't need to read a lot of the stream. If
the file is recognized as one of the needed sources it's reopened with
cache enabled.
Also move the stream_cache_size global variable to the options struct.

Add all subtitle tracks as reported by libdvdread at playback start.
Display language for subtitle and audio tracks. This commit restores
these features to the state when demux_mpg was default for DVD playback,
and makes them work with demux_lavf and the recent changes to subtitle
selection in the frontend.
demux_mpg, which was the default demuxer for DVD playback, reordered
the subtitle streams according to the "logical" subtitle track number,
which conforms to the track layout reported by libdvdread, and is what
stream_dvd expects for the STREAM_CTRL_GET_LANG call. demux_lavf, on
the other hand, adds the streams in the order it encounters them in
the MPEG stream. It seems this order is essentially random, and can't
be mapped easily to what stream_dvd expects.
Solve this by making demux_lavf hand out the MPEG stream IDs (using the
demuxer_id field). The MPEG IDs are mapped by mplayer.c by special
casing DVD playback (map_id_from/to_demuxer() functions). This mapping
is essentially the same what demux_mpg did. Making demux_lavf reorder
the streams is out of the question, because its stream handling is
already messy enough.
(Note that demux_lavf doesn't export stream IDs for other formats,
because most time libavformat demuxers do not set AVStream.id, and we
don't know which demuxers do. But we know that MPEG is safe.)
Another major complication is that subtitle tracks are added lazily, as
soon as the demuxer encounters the first subtitle packet for a given
subtitle stream. Add the streams in advance. If a yet non-existent
stream is selected, demux_lavf must be made to auto-select that subtitle
stream as soon as it is added. Otherwise, the first subtitle packet
would be lost. This is done by DEMUXER_CTRL_PRESELECT_SUBTITLE.
demux_mpg didn't need this: the frontend code could just set ds->id to
the desired stream number. But demux_lavf's stream IDs don't map
directly to the stream number as used by libdvdread, which is why this
hack is needed.
af_format.h declares some symbols which are defined in format.c. The
fact that af_format.c is a completely unrelated file is rather
confusing. Having the header and implementation file use the same base
name is more uniform. (af_format.c is the audio conversion filter, while
af_format.h and format.c are about audio formats and their properties.)
Also fix all source files which include this file.
The <libavutil/avutil.h> stopped including <libavutil/common.h>
recursively in recent ffmpeg/libav git revisions. As a result, some
files no longer got needed definitions, causing a build failure.
Modify #include lines in various files to fix build with the latest
versions of ffmpeg/libav headers.
The main excuse for removing this is that LIVE555 deprecated the API
the mplayer implementation was using. The old API still seems to be
somewhat supported, but must be explicitly enabled at LIVE555
compilation, so mplayer won't always work on any user installation.
The implementation was also very messy, in C++, and FFmpeg support is
available as alternative.
Remove it completely.
libavformat replaces demux_audio completely. I don't know/care what
vivo (demux_viv) is. libavformat has a Real demuxer; it seems it works
slightly better, with a different set of bugs.
When the internal mplayer MPEG demuxer was removed (commit 1fde09db),
the default demuxer when using dvdnav was set to libavformat. Now it
turns out that this doesn't work with libavformat. It will terminate
playback right after the audio runs out (instead of looping it like the
video, or whatever it's supposed to do). I'm not sure what exactly the
problem is, but since 1. even mplayer-svn can't handle DVD menus
directly (missing highlights), 2. DVD menus are essentially worthless,
and 3. I don't directly watch DVDs, don't bother with it and remove it.
For basic playback, there's still libdvdread support.
Also, use pkg-config for libdvdread, and drop support for in-tree
libdvdread. Remove support for in-tree libdvdcss as well.
Remove the win32 loader - the win32 emulation layer, as well as the
code for using DirectShow/DMO/VFW codecs. Remove loading of xanim,
QuickTime, and RealMedia codecs.
The win32 emulation layer is based on a very old version of wine.
Apparently, wine code was copied and hacked until it was somehow able
to load a limited collection of binary codecs. It poked around in the
code segment of some known binary codecs to disable unsupported win32
API calls to make them work. Example from module.c:
for (i=0;i<5;i++) RVA(0x19e842)[i]=0x90; // make_new_region ?
for (i=0;i<28;i++) RVA(0x19e86d)[i]=0x90; // call__call_CreateCompatibleDC ?
for (i=0;i<5;i++) RVA(0x19e898)[i]=0x90; // jmp_to_call_loadbitmap ?
for (i=0;i<9;i++) RVA(0x19e8ac)[i]=0x90; // call__calls_OLE_shit ?
for (i=0;i<106;i++) RVA(0x261b10)[i]=0x90; // disable threads
Just to show how utterly insane this code is. You wouldn't want even
your worst enemy to have to maintain this. In fact, it seems nobody
made major changes to this code ever since it was committed.
Most formats can be decoded by libavcodecs these days, and the loader
couldn't be used on 64 bit platforms anyway. The same is (probably)
true for the other binary codecs.
General note about how support for win32 codecs could be added back:
It's not possible to replace the win32 loader code by using wine as
library, because modern wine can not be linked with native Linux
programs for certain reasons. It would be possible to to move DirectShow
video decoding into a separate process linked with wine, like the
CoreAVC-for-Linux patches do. There is also the mplayer-ww fork, which
uses the dshownative library to use DirectShow codecs on Windows.
stream_file always printed "File not found" if it could not open a
file, even though this could be due to other reasons such as
permission problems. Print strerror() information instead. This
changes the output for "mplayer /etc/shadow" from
File not found: '/etc/shadow'
to
Cannot open file '/etc/shadow': Permission denied
The commit 74df1d8e05 (and f752212c62) replaced the configure
endian check with byte order macros defined by standard headers. It
turns out that MinGW-w64 actually doesn't define these macros in the
sys/types.h system header. (I assumed it does, because a quick test
seemed to work. But that was because gcc -W -Wall doesn't warn against
undefined macros. You need -Wundef for that.) MinGW-w64 has a
sys/params.h header defining these macros, but sys/types.h doesn't
include it, so it's useless without special casing the mplayer code.
Add a hack top configure instead. Define the macros directly, and
assume MinGW-w64 only works on little endian machines.
The other changes are basically random typos and superficial oversights.
Options parsing used to be ambiguous, as in the splitting into option
and values pairs was ambiguous. Example:
-option -something
It wasn't clear whether -option actually takes an argument or not. The
string "-something" could either be a separate option, or an argument
to "-option". The code had to call the option specific parser function
to resolve this.
This made everything complicated and didn't even have a real use. There
was only one case where this was actually used: string lists
(m_option_type_string_list) and options based on it. That is because
this option type actually turns a single option into a proxy for several
real arguments, e.g. "vf*" can handle "-vf-add" and "-vf-clr". Options
suffixed with "-clr" are the only options of this group which take no
arguments.
This is ambiguous only with the "old syntax" (as shown above). The "new"
option syntax always puts option name and value into same argument.
(E.g. "--option=--something" or "--option" "--something".)
Simplify the code by making it statically known whether an option takes
a parameter or not with the flag M_OPT_TYPE_OLD_SYNTAX_NO_PARAM. If it's
set, the option parser assumes the option takes no argument.
The only real ambiguity left, string list options that end on "-clr",
are special cased in the parser.
Remove some duplication of the logic in the command line parser by
moving all argument splitting logic into split_opt(). (It's arguable
whether that can be considered code duplication, but now the code is a
bit simpler anyway. This might be subjective.)
Remove the "ambiguous" parameter from all option parsing related code.
Make m_config unaware of the pre-parsing concept.
Make most CONF_NOCFG options also CONF_GLOBAL (except those explicitly
usable as per-file options.)
