Don't crash if no fallback channel layout could be found (caller can't
handle NULL return from select_chmap()). Apparently this could never
actually happen, though.
Don't treat snd_pcm_hw_params_set_periods_near() failure as fatal error.
Same deal as with snd_pcm_hw_params_set_buffer_time_near().
Actually free channel maps returned by snd_pcm_get_chmap().
Adjust some messages.
No functional changes.
ALSA_PCM_NEW_HW_PARAMS_API was a pre-ALSA 1.0.0 thing and does nothing
with modern ALSA. It stopped being necessary about 10 years ago.
3 functions are moved to avoid forward references.
If ALSA reports a channel map, and it looks like it makes sense (i.e.
could be converted to mpv channel map, and the channel count matches),
then use that instead of the channel map we are assuming.
This is based on code written by lachs0r (alsa_ng branch).
Apparently this can "sometimes" return an error. In my opinion, this
should never return an error: neither the semantics of the function,
nor the ALSA documentation or ALSA sample code seem to indicate that
a failure is to be expected. I'm not perfectly sure about this though
(I blame ALSA being a weird, big, underdocumented API).
Since it causes problems for some users, and since there is really no
reason why we should abort on such an error, turn it into a warning.
Fixes#1231.
Unfortunately, ALSA is particularly bad with this, because mpv has to
add all sorts of magic crap to the device name to make things work. The
device selection overrides this, so explicitly selecting devices will
most likely break your audio. This has yet to be solved.
Before this commit, there was AF_FORMAT_AC3 (the original spdif format,
used for AC3 and DTS core), and AF_FORMAT_IEC61937 (used for AC3, DTS
and DTS-HD), which was handled as some sort of superset for
AF_FORMAT_AC3. There also was AF_FORMAT_MPEG2, which used
IEC61937-framing, but still was handled as something "separate".
Technically, all of them are pretty similar, but may use different
bitrates. Since digital passthrough pretends to be PCM (just with
special headers that wrap digital packets), this is easily detectable by
the higher samplerate or higher number of channels, so I don't know why
you'd need a separate "class" of sample formats (AF_FORMAT_AC3 vs.
AF_FORMAT_IEC61937) to distinguish them. Actually, this whole thing is
just a mess.
Simplify this by handling all these formats the same way.
AF_FORMAT_IS_IEC61937() now returns 1 for all spdif formats (even MP3).
All AOs just accept all spdif formats now - whether that works or not is
not really clear (seems inconsistent due to earlier attempts to make
DTS-HD work). But on the other hand, enabling spdif requires manual user
interaction, so it doesn't matter much if initialization fails in
slightly less graceful ways if it can't work at all.
At a later point, we will support passthrough with ao_pulse. It seems
the PulseAudio API wants to know the codec type (or maybe not - feeding
it DTS while telling it it's AC3 works), add separate formats for each
codecs. While this reminds of the earlier chaos, it's stricter, and most
code just uses AF_FORMAT_IS_IEC61937().
Also, modify AF_FORMAT_TYPE_MASK (renamed from AF_FORMAT_POINT_MASK) to
include special formats, so that it always describes the fundamental
sample format type. This also ensures valid AF formats are never 0 (this
was probably broken in one of the earlier commits from today).
Until now, the audio chain could handle both little endian and big
endian formats. This actually doesn't make much sense, since the audio
API and the HW will most likely prefer native formats. Or at the very
least, it should be trivial for audio drivers to do the byte swapping
themselves.
From now on, the audio chain contains native-endian formats only. All
AOs and some filters are adjusted. af_convertsignendian.c is now wrongly
named, but the filter name is adjusted. In some cases, the audio
infrastructure was reused on the demuxer side, but that is relatively
easy to rectify.
This is a quite intrusive and radical change. It's possible that it will
break some things (especially if they're obscure or not Linux), so watch
out for regressions. It's probably still better to do it the bulldozer
way, since slow transition and researching foreign platforms would take
a lot of time and effort.
IEC 61937 frames should always be little endian (little endian 16 bit
words). I don't see any apparent need why the audio chain should handle
swapped-endian formats.
It could be that some audio outputs might want them (especially on big
endian architectures). On the other hand, it's not clear how that works
on these architectures, and it's not even known whether the current code
works on big endian at all. If something should break, and it should
turn out that swapped-endian spdif is needed on any platform/AO,
swapping still could be done in-place within the affected AO, and
there's no need for the additional complexity in the rest of the player.
Note that af_lavcac3enc outputs big endian spdif frames for unknown
reasons. Normally, the resulting data is just pulled through an auto-
inserted conversion filter and turned into little endian. Maybe this was
done as a trick so that the code didn't have to byte-swap the actual
audio frame. In any case, just make it output little endian frames.
All of this is untested, because I have no receiver hardware.
Round get_space() results in the same way play() rounds the input size.
Some audio APIs do this for various reasons.
This affects only "push" based AOs. Some of these need no change,
because they either do it already right (like ao_openal), or they seem
not to have any such requirements (like ao_pulse).
Needed for the following commit.
Some ALSA plugins take non-interleaved audio, but treat it as
interleaved, which results in various funny bugs. Users keep hitting
this issue, and it just doesn't seem worth the trouble.

Something like "char *s = ...; isdigit(s[0]);" triggers undefined
behavior, because char can be signed, and thus s[0] can be a negative
value. The is*() functions require unsigned char _or_ EOF. EOF is a
special value outside of unsigned char range, thus the argument to the
is*() functions can't be a char.
This undefined behavior can actually trigger crashes if the
implementation of these functions e.g. uses lookup tables, which are
then indexed with out-of-range values.
Replace all <ctype.h> uses with our own custom mp_is*() functions added
with misc/ctype.h. As a bonus, these functions are locale-independent.
(Although currently, we _require_ C locale for other reasons.)
While I'm not very fond of "const", it's important for declarations
(it decides whether a symbol is emitted in a read-only or read/write
section). Fix all these cases, so we have writeable global data only
when we really need.
Apparently this can happen. So actually only return from waiting if ALSA
excplicitly signals that new output is available, or if we are woken up
externally.
In general, we don't need to have a large hw audio buffer size anymore,
because we can quickly fill it from the soft buffer.
Note that this probably doesn't change much anyway. On my system (dmix
enabled), the buffer size is only 170ms, and ALSA won't give more. Even
when using a hardware device the buffer size seems to be limited to
341ms.
This AO pretended to support volume operations when in spdif passthrough
mode, but actually did nothing. This is wrong: at least the GET
operations must write their argument. Signal that volume is unsupported
instead.
This was probably a hack to prevent insertion of volume filters or so,
but it didn't work anyway, while recovering after failed volume filter
insertion does work, so this is not needed at all.
It is possible to have ao->reset() called between ao->pause() and
ao->resume() when seeking during the pause. If the underlying PCM
supports pausing, resuming an already reset PCM will produce an error.
Avoid that by explicitly checking PCM state before calling
snd_pcm_pause().

Until now, this was always conflated with uninit. This was ugly, and
also many AOs emulated this manually (or just ignored it). Make draining
an explicit operation, so AOs which support it can provide it, and for
all others generic code will emulate it.
For ao_wasapi, we keep it simple and basically disable the internal
draining implementation (maybe it should be restored later).
Tested on Linux only.
We want to move the AO to its own thread. There's no technical reason
for making the ao struct opaque to do this. But it helps us sleep at
night, because we can control access to shared state better.
This could output additional, potentially useful error messages. But the
callback is global and not library-safe, and would require us to add
additional state. Remove it, because it's obviously too much of a pain.
Also, it seems ALSA prints stuff to stderr 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.
This partially reverts commit 7d152965. It turns out that at least some
ALSA drivers (at least snd-hda-intel) report incorrect audio delay with
non-native sample rates, even if the sample rate is only very slightly
different from the native one.
For example, 48000Hz is fine on my hda-intel system, while both 8000Hz
and 47999Hz lead to a delay off by 40ms (according to mpv's A/V
difference display), which suggests that something in ALSA is
calculating the delay using the wrong sample rate.
As an additional problem, with ALSA resampling enabled, using
48001Hz/float/2ch fails, while 49000Hz/float/2ch or 48001Hz/s16/2ch
work. With resampling disabled, all these cases work obviously, because
our own resampler doesn't just refuse any of these formats.
Since some people want to use the ALSA resampler (because it's highly
configurable, supports multiple backends, etc.), we still allow enabling
ALSA resampling with an ao_alsa suboption.
Resampling with non-ancient ALSA setups works fine, so there is no
need to keep this around. Furthermore, as of writing, the default
builtin resampler used by many ALSA setups (taken from libspeex)
actually has higher quality than the default resampling modes of
avresample and swresample.
ALSA supports non-interleaved audio natively using a separate API
function for writing audio. (Though you have to tell it about this on
initialization.) ALSA doesn't have separate sample formats for this,
so just pretend to negotiate the interleaved format, and assume that
all non-interleaved formats have an interleaved companion format.
This comes with two internal AO API changes:
1. ao_driver.play now can take non-interleaved audio. For this purpose,
the data pointer is changed to void **data, where data[0] corresponds to
the pointer in the old API. Also, the len argument as well as the return
value are now in samples, not bytes. "Sample" in this context means the
unit of the smallest possible audio frame, i.e. sample_size * channels.
2. ao_driver.get_space now returns samples instead of bytes. (Similar to
the play function.)
Change all AOs to use the new API.
The AO API as exposed to the rest of the player still uses the old API.
It's emulated in ao.c. This is purely to split the commits changing all
AOs and the commits adding actual support for outputting N-I audio.
No AO can handle these, so it would be a problem if they get added
later, and non-interleaved formats get accepted erroneously. Let them
gracefully fall back to other formats.
Most AOs actually would fall back, but to an unrelated formats. This is
covered by this commit too, and if possible they should pick the
interleaved variant if a non-interleaved format is requested.
I have no idea what these do, but apparently they are needed to inform
ALSA about spdif configuration. First, replace the literal constant "6"
for the AES0 parameter with the symbolic constants from the ALSA
headers (the final value is the same). Second, copy paste some funky
looking parameter setup from VLC's alsa output for setting the AES1,
AES2, AES3 parameters. (The code is actually not literally copy-pasted,
but does exactly the same.)
My small but non-zero hope is that this could make DTS-HD work, or at
least work into that direction. I can't test spdif stuff though, and
for DTS-HD not even opening the ALSA device succeeds on my system.
Using spdif with alsa requires adding magic parameters to the device
name, and the existing code tried to deal with the situation when the
user wanted to add parameters too.
Rewrite this code, in particular remove the duplicated parameter string
as preparation for the next commit. The new code is a bit stricter, e.g.
it doesn't skip spaces before and after '{' and '}'. (Just don't add
spaces.)
It's true that ALSA uses alloca() in some of its API functions, but
since this is hidden behind macros in the ALSA headers, we have no
reason to include alloca.h ourselves.
Might help with portability (FreeBSD).
