Move all of the channel map retrieval/negotiation code to a separate
file. This will (probably) be helpful when extending
ao_coreaudio_exclusive.c.
Nothing else changes, other than some minor cosmetics and renaming,
and changing some details for decoupling it from the ao_coreaudio.c
internals.
And split the Cocoa and Unix cases. Simplify the Cocoa case slightly by
calling mpv_main directly, instead of passing a function pointer. Also
add a comment explaining why Cocoa needs a special case at all.
This unbreaks compiling command line player and libmpv at the same
time. The problem was that doing so silently disabled the OSX
application thing - but the command line player can not use the
vo_opengl Cocoa backend without it.
The OSX application code is basically dead in libmpv, but it's not
that much code anyway.
If you want a mpv binary that does not create an OSX application
singleton (and creates a menu etc.), you must disable cocoa
completely, as cocoa can't be used anyway in this case.
Somewhat less ifdeffery, higher flexibility. Now there are 3 separate
config file resolvers for 3 platforms (unix, win, osx), and they can
still interact with each other somewhat. For example, OSX for now uses
most of Unix, but adds the OSX bundle path.
This can be extended to resolve very specific platform paths, such as
location of the desktop.
Most of the Unix specific code moves to path-unix.c.
The behavior should be the same - if not, it is likely a bug.
It's entirely useless, especially now that vo.c handles screenshots in a
generic way, and requires no special VO support. There are some
potential weird use-cases, but actually I've never seen it being used.
Add a platform-specific entry-point for Windows. This will allow some
platform-specific initialization to be added without the need for ugly
ifdeffery in main.c.
As an immediate advantage, mpv can now use a unicode entry-point and
convert the command line arguments to UTF-8 before passing them to
mpv_main, so osdep_preinit can be simplified a little bit.
This requires FFmpeg git master for accelerated hardware decoding.
Keep in mind that FFmpeg must be compiled with --enable-mmal. Libav
will also work.
Most things work. Screenshots don't work with accelerated/opaque
decoding (except using full window screenshot mode). Subtitles are
very slow - even simple but huge overlays can cause frame drops.
This always uses fullscreen mode. It uses dispmanx and mmal directly,
and there are no window managers or anything on this level.
vo_opengl also kind of works, but is pretty useless and slow. It can't
use opaque hardware decoding (copy back can be used by forcing the
option --vd=lavc:h264_mmal). Keep in mind that the dispmanx backend
is preferred over the X11 ones in case you're trying on X11; but X11
is even more useless on RPI.
This doesn't correctly reject extended h264 profiles and thus doesn't
fallback to software decoding. The hw supports only up to the high
profile, and will e.g. return garbage for Hi10P video.
This sets a precedent of enabling hw decoding by default, but only
if RPI support is compiled (which most hopefully it will be disabled
on desktop Linux platforms). While it's more or less required to use
hw decoding on the weak RPI, it causes more problems than it solves
on real platforms (Linux has the Intel GPU problem, OSX still has
some cases with broken decoding.) So I can live with this compromise
of having different defaults depending on the platform.
Raspberry Pi 2 is required. This wasn't tested on the original RPI,
though at least decoding itself seems to work (but full playback was
not tested).
With a recent cleanup, rar support was stuffed into demux_playlist.c
(because "opening" rar files pretty much just lists archive contents and
adds them to a playlist using a special rar:// protocol, which will
actually access the rar file contents).
Since demux_playlist.c is probed _after_ demux_lavf.c (and should/must
be), libavformat was given the chance to detect DTS streams embedded
within the rar file. This is not really what we want, and a regression
what happened before rar listing was moved to demux_playlist.c.
Fix it by moving the rar listing into its own pseudo-demuxer, and let ir
probe before demux_lavf.c.
(Yes, this feature still has users.)
Why did this exist in the first place? Other than being completely
useless, this even caused some regressions in the past. For example,
there was the case of a laptop exposing its accelerometer as joystick
device, which led to extremely fun things due to the default mappings of
axis movement being mapped to seeking.
I suppose those who really want to use their joystick to control a media
player (???) can configure it as mouse device or so.
We've been prefering the libavcodec mp3 decoder for half a year now.
There is likely no benefit at all for using the libmpg123 one. It's just
a maintenance burden, and tricks users into thinking it's a required
dependency.
The basic idea is to use dynamically generated shaders instead of a
single monolithic file + a ton of ifdefs. Instead of having to setup
every aspect of it separately (like compiling shaders, setting uniforms,
perfoming the actual rendering steps, the GLSL parts), we generate the
GLSL on the fly, and perform the rendering at the same time. The GLSL
is regenerated every frame, but the actual compiled OpenGL-level shaders
are cached, which makes it fast again. Almost all logic can be in a
single place.
The new code is significantly more flexible, which allows us to improve
the code clarity, performance and add more features easily.
This commit is incomplete. It drops almost all previous code, and
readds only the most important things (some of them actually buggy).
The next commit will complete it - it's separate to preserve authorship
information.
Although the libraries we use for resampling (libavresample and
libswresample) do not support changing sampelrate on the fly, this makes
it easier to make sure no audio buffers are implicitly dropped. In fact,
this commit adds additional code to drain the resampler explicitly.
Changing speed twice without feeding audio in-between made it crash
with libavresample inc ertain cases (libswresample is fine). This is
probably a libavresample bug. Hopefully this will be fixed, and also I
attempted to workaround the situation that crashes it. (It seems to
point in direction of random memory corruption, though.)
Move the implementation, of which most was in tl_cue.c, to demux_cue.c.
Currently, this is illogical, because tl_cue.c still accesses MPContext.
This is going to change, and then it will be better if everything is in
demux_cue.c. This is only a separate commit to distinguish code movement
and actual work; the next commit will do the actual work.
Instead of accessing MPContext in player/timeline/*, create a separate
context struct, which the timeline loaders fill out. It turns out that
there's not much in the way too big MPContext that these need to access.
One major PITA is managing (and closing) the set of open demuxers. The
problem is that we need a list of all demuxers to make sure no unneeded
streams are enabled.
This adds a callback to the demuxer_desc struct, with the intention of
leaving to to the demuxer to call the right loader, instead of
explicitly checking the demuxer type and dispatching manually in common
code. I also considered making the timeline part of the demuxer state,
but decided against: it's too much of a mess wrt. memory management and
threading, and also doesn't make it clear who owns the child demuxers.
With the struct timeline decoupled from the demuxer state, it's at least
somewhat clear that the child demuxers are independent from the "main"
demuxer.
The actual changes to player/timeline/* are separated in the following
commits, because they're quite verbose. Some artifacts will be removed
later as soon as there's only 1 timeline loading mechanism.
Remove the confusing crap that allowed a filter using the libavfilter
bridge to be compiled without libavfilter. Instead, compile the wrappers
only if libavfilter is enabled at compile time.
The only filter which still requires it is vf_stereo3d (unfortunately).
Special-case this one. (The whole filter and how it interacts with lavfi
is pure braindeath anyway.)
If "--af=rubberband" is used, librubberband will be used to speed up or
slow down audio with pitch correction.
This still has some problems: the audio delay is not calculated
correctly, so the audio position jitters around by a few milliseconds.
This will probably ruin video timing.
gl_common.c contained the function loader (which is big) and additional
utility functions (not so big, but will grow when moving more out of
gl_video.c). Just split them. There are no changes other than some
modifications to comments.
This was apparently useful for correct interlaced scaling (although I
don't know anyone who used this). It was rarely used (if at all), had an
inconvenient output format (packed YUV), and now has a better solution
in libavfilter (using the libavfilter "scale" filter via vf_lavfi).
There is no reason to keep this filter any longer.
It's entirely useless. I left it in for a while, because the analog TV
code had a transitional bug that could switch chroma planes, but it was
fixed long ago. It's also available in libavfilter.
Apparently it was completely broken and essentially did nothing. This
was broken sometime in early mpv or mplayer2 times.
Get rid of it. If you _really_ need it, wait until FFmpeg ports it from
MPlayer, which will happen very soon.
The symlink trick made waf go crazy (deleting source files, getting
tangled up in infinite recursion... I wish I was joking). This means we
still can't build the client API examples in a reasonable way using the
include files of the local repository (instead of globally installed
headers). Not building them at all is better than deleting source files.
Instead, provide some manual instructions how to build each example
(except for the Qt examples, which provide qmake project files).
Our own code was introduced when FFmpeg didn't provide this API (or
maybe didn't even have a way to determine the CPU count). But now,
av_cpu_count() is available for all FFmpeg/Libav versions we support,
and there's no reason to have our own code.
libavutil's code seems to be slightly more sophisticated than our's, and
it's possible that the detected CPU count is different on some platforms
after this change.
The examples simple.c and cocoabasic.m can be compiled without
installing libmpv. But also, they didn't use the correct include path
libmpv programs normally use, so they couldn't be built with a properly
installed system-libmpv. That's pretty bad for examples, which are
supposed to show how to use libmpv correctly.
So do some bullshit that symlinks libmpv to a "mpv" include directory
under the build directory. This name-mismatch is a direct consequence of
the bullshit done in 499a6758 (requested in #539 for dumb reasons). (We
don't want to name the client API headers directory "mpv", because that
would be too unspecific, and clashes with having the mpv binary in the
same directory.)
If you have spaces or other "unusual" characters in your paths, the
build will break, because I couldn't find out where waf hides its
function to escape shell parameters (or a way to invoke programs
without involving the shell). Neither does such a thing to be
documented, nor do they seem to have a clear way to do this in
their code.
This also doesn't compile the Qt examples, because everything becomes
even more terrible from there on.
There's no reason why parts of this demuxer would be in a separate
source file. The existence of this code is already somewhat questionable
anyway, so it may as well be dumped into a single file.
Even stranger that demux.c included mf.h for no reason (it was an
artifact from 2002 when the architecture was uncleaner).
Instead of just failing during channel map selection, try to select a close
layout that makes most sense and upmix/downmix to that instead of failing AO
initialization. The heuristic is rather simple, and uses the following steps:
1) If mono is required always prefer stereo to a multichannel upmix.
2) Search for an upmix that is an exact superset of the required channel map.
3) Search for a downmix that is the exact subset of the required channel map.
4) Search for either an upmix or downmix that is the closest (minimum difference
of channels) to the required channel map.
Makes all of overlay_add work on windows/mingw.
Since we now don't explicitly check for mmap() anymore (it's always
present), this also requires us to make af_export.c compile, but I
haven't tested it.
This adds API to libmpv that lets host applications use the mpv opengl
renderer. This is a more flexible (and possibly more portable) option to
foreign window embedding (via --wid).
This assumes that methods like context sharing and multithreaded OpenGL
rendering are infeasible, and that a way is needed to integrate it with
an application that uses a single thread to render everything.
Add an example that does this with QtQuick/qml. The example is
relatively lazy, but still shows how relatively simple the integration
is. The FBO indirection could probably be avoided, but would require
more work (and would probably lead to worse QtQuick integration, because
it would have to ignore transformations like rotation).
Because this makes mpv directly use the host application's OpenGL
context, there is no platform specific code involved in mpv, except
for hw decoding interop.
main.qml is derived from some Qt example.
The following things are still missing:
- a way to do better video timing
- expose GL renderer options, allow changing them at runtime
- support for color equalizer controls
- support for screenshots
This is an ancient filter, and we assume it's not useful anymore.
If you really want this, it's still available in libavfilter (e.g. via
--vf=lavfi=[pp...]). The disadvantage is that mpv doesn't pass through
QP information to libavfilter. (This was probably the reason vf_pp still
was part of mpv - it was slightly easier to pass QP internally.)
This wasn't done before because there was no advantage in "abstracting"
it. This changed, and putting this into its own files is better than
messing it into gl_common.c/h.
The subprocess code was already split into fairly general functions,
separate from the Lua code. It's getting pretty big though, especially
the Windows-specific parts, so move it into its own files.
Implement skeleton IMMNotificationClient to watch for changes in the
sound device. This will make recovery possible from changes shared
mode sample rate, bit depth, "enhancements"/effects and even graceful
device removal.

Use a pseudo-filter when changing speed with resampling, instead of
somehow changing a samplerate somewhere. This uses the same underlying
mechanism, but is a bit more structured and cleaner. It also makes some
of the following changes easier.
Since we now always use filters to change audio speed, move most of the
work set_playback_speed() does to recreate_audio_filters().
No development activity (or even any sign of life) for almost a year.
A replacement based on youtube-dl will probably be provided before the
next mpv release. Ask on the IRC channel if you want to test.
Simplify the Lua check too: libquvi linking against a different Lua
version than mpv was a frequent issue, but with libquvi gone, no
direct dependency uses Lua, and such a clash is rather unlikely.
This provides some helper functions and classes for C++/Qt. As the top
of qthelper.hpp says, this is built on top of the client API, and is a
mere helper provided for convenience.
Maybe this should be a separate library, but on the other hand I don't
see much of a point in that. It's also header-only, but C++ people like
such things. This makes it easier for us, because we don't need to care
about ABI compatibility.
The client API doesn't change, but bump it so that those who are using
this header can declare a proper dependency.
Objective-C categories need special linker flags from the user when statically
linking (-ObjC LDFLAG), so make everyone's life simpler and remove them.
Use libwaio to read from pipes (stdin or named pipes) on Windows. This
liberates us from nasty issues, such as pipes (as created by most
programs) not being possible to read in a non-blocking or event-driven
way. Although it would be possible to do that in a somewhat sane way
on Vista+, it's still not easy, and on XP it's especially hard. libwaio
handles these things for us.
Move pipe.c to pipe-unix.c, and remove Windows specific things. Also
adjust the input.c code to make this work cleanly.
1. Separate buffer and temporary file handling from the vo to make maintenance
and reading code easier
2. Skip resizing as much as possible if back buffer is still busy.
3. Detach and mark osd buffers for deletion if we want to redraw them and they
are still busy. This could be a possible case for the video buffers as
well. Maybe better than double buffering.
All the above steps made it possible to have resizing without any artifacts
even for subtitles. Also fixes dozen of bugs only I knew, like broken subtitles
for rgb565 buffers. I can now sleep at night again.
OSX is POSIX conformant, but it's a sad joke: it provides the
<semaphore.h> prototype as the standard demands, but they're empty
wrappers, and all functions just return ENOSYS.
Emulate them similar to how osdep/io.h emulate filesystem functions on
Windows. By including the header, working sem_* functions become
available.
To make it async-signal safe, use a pipe for wakeup (write() is AS-safe,
but mutexes can't be). Actually I'm not sure anymore if we really need
AS-safety, but for now the emulation can do it.
On Linux, the system provides a far more efficient and robust
implementation. We definitely want to avoid using the emulation if
possible, so this code is active on OSX only. For convenience we always
build the source file though, even if the implementation is disabled and
no actual code is generated.
(Linux provides working semaphores, but is formally not POSIX
conformant. On OSX it's the opposite. Is POSIX a complete joke?)
This was kept in the codebase because it is slightly faster than --vo=opengl
on really old Intel cards (from the GMA era). Time to kill it, and let it rest.
Fixes#1061
bstr.c doesn't really deserve its own directory, and compat had just
a few files, most of which may as well be in osdep. There isn't really
any justification for these extra directories, so get rid of them.
The compat/libav.h was empty - just delete it. We changed our approach
to API compatibility, and will likely not need it anymore.
Abandon the "old" infrastructure for --input-file (mp_input_add_fd(),
select() loop, non-blocking reads). Replace it with something that
starts a reader thread, using blocking input.
This is for the sake of Windows. Windows is a truly insane operating
system, and there's not even a way to read a pipe in a non-blocking
way, or to wait for new input in an interruptible way (like with
poll()). And unfortunately, some want to use pipe to send input to
mpv. There are probably (slightly) better IPC mechanisms available
on Windows, but for the sake of platform uniformity, make this work
again for now.
On Vista+, CancelIoEx() could probably be used. But there's no way on
XP. Also, that function doesn't work on wine, making development
harder. We could forcibly terminate the thread, which might work, but
is unsafe. So what we do is starting a thread, and if we don't want
the pipe input anymore, we just abandon the thread. The thread might
remain blocked forever, but if we exit the process, the kernel will
forcibly kill it. On Unix, just use poll() to handle this.
Unfortunately the code is pretty crappy, but it's ok, because it's late
and I wanted to stop working on this an hour ago.
Tested on wine; might not work on a real Windows.
Since the 'syms' tool is shipped in waf's extras, when using system waf the
default tool overrides our own. Force our syms tool by providing the tooldir.
Fixes#1006
This is probably nicer. The actual version number doesn't change (other
than the minor being incremented).
The "| 0UL" is to make the type unsigned long int, like it was before.
Instead of using a regex to match names to be exported from the libmpv
dynamic shared library, use a libmpv.def file, which lists all exported
functions explicitly.
This reduces the platform specifics in syms.py. I'm not sure if the
separate compile_sym task is still needed (it could probably be
collapsed, which would concentrate the platform specifics into one
place).
Use OPT_KEYVALUELIST() for all places where AVOptions are directly set
from mpv command line options. This allows escaping values, better
diagnostics (also no more "pal"), and somehow reduces code size.
Remove the old crappy option parser (av_opts.c).
Plan 9 has a very interesting synchronization mechanism, the
rendezvous() call. A good property of this is that you don't need to
explicitly initialize and destroy a barrier object, unlike as with e.g.
POSIX barriers (which are mandatory to begin with). Upon "meeting", they
can exchange a value.
This mechanism will be nice to synchronize certain stages of
initialization between threads in the following commit.
Unlike Plan 9 rendezvous(), this is not implemented with a hashtable,
because that would require additional effort (especially if you want to
make it actually scele). Unlike the Plan 9 variant, we use intptr_t
instead of void* as type for the value, because I expect that we will be
mostly passing a status code as value and not a pointer. Converting an
integer to void* requires two cast (because the integer needs to be
intptr_t), the other way around it's only one cast.
We don't particularly care about performance in this case either. It's
simply not important for our use-case. So a simple linked list is used
for waiters, and on wakeup, all waiters are temporarily woken up.
DVD and Bluray (and to some extent cdda) require awful hacks all over
the codebase to make them work. The main reason is that they act like
container, but are entirely implemented on the stream layer. The raw
mpeg data resulting from these streams must be "extended" with the
container-like metadata transported via STREAM_CTRLs. The result were
hacks all over demux.c and some higher-level parts.
Add a "disc" pseudo-demuxer, and move all these hacks and special-cases
to it.
The mplayer1/2/mpv CoreAudio audio output historically contained both usage
of AUHAL APIs (these go through the CoreAudio audio server) and the Device
based APIs (used only for output of compressed formats in exclusive mode).
The latter is a very unwieldy and low level API and pretty much forces us to
write a lot of code for little workr. Also with the widespread of HDMI, the
actual need for outputting compressed audio directly to the device is getting
lower (it was very useful with S/PDIF for bandwidth constraints not allowing
a number if channels transmitted in LPCM).
Considering how invasive it is (uses hog/exclusive mode), the new AO
(`ao_coreaudio_device`) is not going to be autoprobed but the user will have
to select it.
For remarks, pretty much see the manpage additions. Could help with
network streams that require too much seeking (maybe), or might be
extended to help with the use case of watching and downloading a file
at the same time.
In general, it might be a useless feature and could be removed again.
It is reasonably stable, so all further changes will be versioned.
Also change how the libmpv version number is generated. Fix the patch
version number to 0; I don't think we have a use for this. In
particular, the version doesn't version mpv, just the client API.
Does anyone actually use this?
For now, update it, because it's the only case left where an option
points to a global variable (and not a struct offset).
This was never intended to be installed; waf just picked it up
automagically. There's also a closed ticket on github where someone
complains that the program "simple" is installed, and I didn't realize
at this point that it was actually installed by default when enabling
the client API.
If a single person complains, I will readd it. But I don't expect that
this will happen.
The main reason for removing this is that it's some of the most unclean
code remaining, it's unmaintained, and I've never ever heard of someone
using it.
