Will be helpful to track down strange wait times and such issues, as
well when you have develop something timing related. (Then you may print
timestamps in your debug output, and the --msgtime timestamps will help
giving context.)
M_OPT_PARSE_ESCAPES was pretty stupid, and broke the (useful) assumption
that string variables contain exactly the same value as set by the
option. Simplify it, and move escape handling to the place where it's
used.
Escape handling itself is not terribly useful, but still allows useful
things like multiline custom OSD with "\n".
The values set by this new option can be queried by Lua scripts using
the mp.getopt() function. The function takes a string parameter, and
returns the value of the first key that matches. If no key matches, nil
is returned.
The terminal OSD code includes the handling of the terminal status line,
showing player OSD messages on the terminal, and showing subtitles on
terminal (the latter two only if there is no video window, or if
terminal OSD is forced).
This didn't handle some corner cases correctly. For example, showing an
OSD message on the terminal always cleared the previous line, even if
the line was an important message (or even just the command prompt, if
most other messages were silenced).
Attempt to handle this correctly by keeping track of how many lines the
terminal OSD currently consists of. Since there could be race conditions
with other messages being printed, implement this in msg.c. Now msg.c
expects that MSGL_STATUS messages rewrite the status line, so the caller
is forced to use a single mp_msg() call to set the status line.
Instead of littering print_status() all over the place, update the
status only once per playloop iteration in update_osd_msg(). In audio-
only mode, the status line might now be a little bit off, but it's
perhaps ok.
Print the status line only if it has changed, or if another message was
printed. This might help with extremely slow terminals, although in
audio+video mode, it'll still be updated very often (A-V sync display
changes on every frame).
Instead of hardcoding the terminal sequences, use
terminfo/termcap to get the sequences. Remove the --term-osd-esc option,
which allowed to override the hardcoded escapes - it's useless now.
The fallback for terminals with no escape sequences for moving the
cursor and clearing a line is removed. This somewhat breaks status line
display on these terminals, including the MS Windows console: instead of
querying the terminal size and clearing the line manually by padding the
output with spaces, the line is simply not cleared. I don't expect this
to be a problem on UNIX, and on MS Windows we could emulate escape
sequences. Note that terminal OSD (other than the status line) was
broken anyway on these terminals.
In osd.c, the function get_term_width() is not used anymore, so remove
it. To remind us that the MS Windows console apparently adds a line
break when writint the last column, adjust screen_width in terminal-
win.c accordingly.
Doesn't make any sense anymore. X11 (which was mentioned in the manpage)
autodetects it, and everything else ignored the option values.
Since for incomprehensible reasons the backends and vo.c still need to
exchange information about the screensize using the option fields,
they're not removed yet.
This basically reverts the default as set by commit 812798c5. This seems
to be a matter of taste, but personally I think keeping the pause
setting is better.
Set the flag CODEC_FLAG_OUTPUT_CORRUPT by default. Note that there is
also CODEC_FLAG2_SHOW_ALL, which is older, but this seems to be ffmpeg
only.
Note that whether you want this enabled depends on the user. Some might
prefer that only good frames are output, while others want the decoder
to try as hard as possible to output _anything_. Since mplayer/mpv is
rather the kind of player that tries hard instead of being "clever", set
the new default to override libavcodec's default.
A nice way to test this is switching video tracks. Since mpv doesn't
wait for the next key frame, it'll start feeding the decoder with a
packet from the middle of the stream.
Also, make sure that a track can't be selected twice. While this might
work in some situations, it certainly won't work with subtitles demuxed
from a stream.
Fixes#425.
This is relatively hacky, but it's Christmas, so it's ok. This does two
things: 1. allow selecting two subtitle tracks, and 2. include a hack
that renders the second subtitle always as toptitle. See manpage
additions how to use this.
I find this annoying. It's the reason common/version.c exists at all.
options.c did this for the user agent, which contains the version
number. Because not including version.h means you can't build the user
agent and use it in mp_default_opts anymore, do something rather awkward
in main.c to initialize the default user agent.
Always pass around mp_log contexts in the option parser code. This of
course affects all users of this API as well.
In stream.c, pass a mp_null_log, because we can't do it properly yet.
This will be fixed later.
Until now, there were two functions to add input sources (stuff like
stdin input, slave mode, lirc, joystick). Unify them to a single
function (mp_input_add_fd()), and make sure the associated callbacks
always have a context parameter.
Change the lirc and joystick code such that they take store their state
in a context struct (probably worthless), and use the new mp_msg
replacements (the point of this refactoring).
Additionally, get rid of the ugly USE_FD0_CMD_SELECT etc. ifdeffery in
the terminal handling code.
Basically, reimplement --msglevel. Instead of making the new msg code
use the legacy code, make the legacy code use the reimplemented
functionality.
The handling of the deprecated --identify switch changes. It temporarily
stops working; this will be fixed in later commits.
The actual sub-options syntax (like --msglevel-vo=...) goes away, but I
bet nobody knew about this or used this anyway.
Since m_option.h and options.h are extremely often included, a lot of
files have to be changed.
Moving path.c/h to options/ is a bit questionable, but since this is
mainly about access to config files (which are also handled in
options/), it's probably ok.
