At the moment, rendering on Android requires ``--vo=opengl-cb`` and
a lot of java<->c++ bridging code to receive the receive and react to
the render callback in java. Performance also suffers with opengl-cb,
due to the overhead of context switching in JNI.
With this patch, Android can render using ``--vo=gpu --gpu-context=android``
(after setting ``--wid`` to point to an android.view.Surface on-screen).
But --msg-level can only raise the log level used for --log-file,
because the original idea with --log-file was that it'd log verbose
messages to disk even if terminal logging is lower than -v or fully
disabled.
- Don't recommend libdvdnav, since DVD support isn't compiled by default
anymore.
- Take advantage of the new $MINGW_PACKAGE_PREFIX and $MSYSTEM_PREFIX
variables to make the build commands independent from the mingw-w64
build environment being used.
- Invoke /usr/bin/python3 directly, since I've heard some packages have
started to depend on mingw-w64 versions of Python, but our build
scripts only work with the MSYS2 version.
- Reword the MSYS2 install instructions to try to prevent common errors.
Changed the reference from --gpu-gamma to --gamma-factor,
and changed the reference from --post-shader to --glsl-shaders,
in order to reflect actual changes to the option names.
Seems to be fixed upstream in the nvidia driver, so it's probably a good
idea to 1. force the layout and 2. remove the warning, as it now
actually works. Users with older drivers would run into errors, but they
can still use shaderc as a replacement. (And it's not like the old
status quo was any better)
This has several advantages:
1. no more redundant texcoords when we don't need them
2. no more arbitrary limit on how many textures we can bind
3. (that extends to user shaders as well)
4. no more arbitrary limits on tscale radius
To realize this, the VAO was moved from a hacky stateful approach
(gl_sc_set_vertex_attribs) - which always bothered me since it was
required for compute shaders as well even though they ignored it - to be
a proper parameter of gl_sc_dispatch_draw, and internally plumbed into
gl_sc_generate, which will make a (properly mangled) deep copy into
params.vertex_attribs.
Apparently this filter is broken in a weird way, which even makes some
libavfilter functions segfault in certain conditions. Don't waste time
with it and just remove the examples.
Also adjust the "life" example description (certainly this filter is
100% worthless, but the example does demonstrate how to use source
filters without any available input).
auto-copy selects more modes than the ones listed. It will always be
outdated anyway.
The GLX vaapi backend is never selected anymore, because it sucks.
In addition to the built-in nvidia compiler, we now also support a
backend based on libshaderc. shaderc is sort of like glslang except it
has a C API and is available as a dynamic library.
The generated SPIR-V is now cached alongside the VkPipeline in the
cached_program. We use a special cache header to ensure validity of this
cache before passing it blindly to the vulkan implementation, since
passing invalid SPIR-V can cause all sorts of nasty things. It's also
designed to self-invalidate if the compiler gets better, by offering a
catch-all `int compiler_version` that implementations can use as a cache
invalidation marker.
This time based on ra/vo_gpu. 2017 is the year of the vulkan desktop!
Current problems / limitations / improvement opportunities:
1. The swapchain/flipping code violates the vulkan spec, by assuming
that the presentation queue will be bounded (in cases where rendering
is significantly faster than vsync). But apparently, there's simply
no better way to do this right now, to the point where even the
stupid cube.c examples from LunarG etc. do it wrong.
(cf. https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Docs/issues/370)
2. The memory allocator could be improved. (This is a universal
constant)
3. Could explore using push descriptors instead of descriptor sets,
especially since we expect to switch descriptors semi-often for some
passes (like interpolation). Probably won't make a difference, but
the synchronization overhead might be a factor. Who knows.
4. Parallelism across frames / async transfer is not well-defined, we
either need to use a better semaphore / command buffer strategy or a
resource pooling layer to safely handle cross-frame parallelism.
(That said, I gave resource pooling a try and was not happy with the
result at all - so I'm still exploring the semaphore strategy)
5. We aggressively use pipeline barriers where events would offer a much
more fine-grained synchronization mechanism. As a result of this, we
might be suffering from GPU bubbles due to too-short dependencies on
objects. (That said, I'm also exploring the use of semaphores as a an
ordering tactic which would allow cross-frame time slicing in theory)
Some minor changes to the vo_gpu and infrastructure, but nothing
consequential.
NOTE: For safety, all use of asynchronous commands / multiple command
pools is currently disabled completely. There are some left-over relics
of this in the code (e.g. the distinction between dev_poll and
pool_poll), but that is kept in place mostly because this will be
re-extended in the future (vulkan rev 2).
The queue count is also currently capped to 1, because of the lack of
cross-frame semaphores means we need the implicit synchronization from
the same-queue semantics to guarantee a correct result.
This never really made sense since the BT.1886 changes. It should get
*brighter* for bright rooms, not darker for dark rooms. Picked some new
values that seemed reasonable-ish.
This is done in several steps:
1. refactor MPGLContext -> struct ra_ctx
2. move GL-specific stuff in vo_opengl into opengl/context.c
3. generalize context creation to support other APIs, and add --gpu-api
4. rename all of the --opengl- options that are no longer opengl-specific
5. move all of the stuff from opengl/* that isn't GL-specific into gpu/
(note: opengl/gl_utils.h became opengl/utils.h)
6. rename vo_opengl to vo_gpu
7. to handle window screenshots, the short-term approach was to just add
it to ra_swchain_fns. Long term (and for vulkan) this has to be moved to
ra itself (and vo_gpu altered to compensate), but this was a stop-gap
measure to prevent this commit from getting too big
8. move ra->fns->flush to ra_gl_ctx instead
9. some other minor changes that I've probably already forgotten
Note: This is one half of a major refactor, the other half of which is
provided by rossy's following commit. This commit enables support for
all linux platforms, while his version enables support for all non-linux
platforms.
Note 2: vo_opengl_cb.c also re-uses ra_gl_ctx so it benefits from the
--opengl- options like --opengl-early-flush, --opengl-finish etc. Should
be a strict superset of the old functionality.
Disclaimer: Since I have no way of compiling mpv on all platforms, some
of these ports were done blindly. Specifically, the blind ports included
context_mali_fbdev.c and context_rpi.c. Since they're both based on
egl_helpers, the port should have gone smoothly without any major
changes required. But if somebody complains about a compile error on
those platforms (assuming anybody actually uses them), you know where to
complain.
This mechanism uses system() and shouldn't even exist. x11_common.c has
its own solution for the original problem (disabling Linux DE
screensavers without MPlayer/mpv having to link a dbus lib). If that is
not sufficient, you can create a simple Lua script.
Incidentally fixes#4888.
This clearly highlights all out-of-gamut/clipped pixels. (Either too
bright or too saturated)
Has some (documented) caveats. Also make TONE_MAPPING_CLIP stop actually
clamping the value range (it's unnecessary and breaks this feature).
Mouse wheel bindings have always been a cause of user confusion.
Previously, on Wayland and macOS, precise touchpads would generate AXIS
keycodes and notched mouse wheels would generate mouse button keycodes.
On Windows, both types of device would generate AXIS keycodes and on
X11, both types of device would generate mouse button keycodes. This
made it pretty difficult for users to modify their mouse-wheel bindings,
since it differed between platforms and in some cases, between devices.
To make it more confusing, the keycodes used on Windows were changed in
18a45a42d5 without a deprecation period or adequate communication to
users.
This change aims to make mouse wheel binds less confusing. Both the
mouse button and AXIS keycodes are now deprecated aliases of the new
WHEEL keycodes. This will technically break input configs on Wayland and
macOS that assign different commands to precise and non-precise scroll
events, but this is probably uncommon (if anyone does it at all) and I
think it's a fair tradeoff for finally fixing mouse wheel-related
confusion on other platforms.
mpv's mouse button numbering is based on X11 button numbering, which
allows for an arbitrary number of buttons and includes mouse wheel input
as buttons 3-6. This button numbering was used throughout the codebase
and exposed in input.conf, and it was difficult to remember which
physical button each number actually referred to and which referred to
the scroll wheel.
In practice, PC mice only have between two and five buttons and one or
two scroll wheel axes, which are more or less in the same location and
have more or less the same function. This allows us to use names to
refer to the buttons instead of numbers, which makes input.conf syntax a
lot easier to remember. It also makes the syntax robust to changes in
mpv's underlying numbering. The old MOUSE_BTNx names are still
understood as deprecated aliases of the named buttons.
This changes both the input.conf syntax and the MP_MOUSE_BTNx symbols in
the codebase, since I think both would benefit from using names over
numbers, especially since some platforms don't use X11 button numbering
and handle different mouse buttons in different windowing system events.
This also makes the names shorter, since otherwise they would be pretty
long, and it removes the high-numbered MOUSE_BTNx_DBL names, since they
weren't used.
Names are the same as used in Qt:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qt.html#MouseButton-enum
This removes all GPL only code from it, and that's the whole purpose.
Also happens to be much simpler.
The "deinterlace" option still sort of exists, but only as runtime
changeable option. The main change in behavior is that the property will
not report back the actual deint state. Or in other words, if inserting
or initializing the filter fails, the deinterlace property will still
return "yes". This is in line with most recent behavior changes to
properties and options.
Both the video equalizer command/option glue, which drives this filter,
as well as the filter itself are slightly GPL contaminated. So it goes.
After this commit, "--vf=eq" will actually use libavfilter's vf_eq (if
FFmpeg was compiled in GPL mode), but it has different options and will
not listen to the equalizer VOCTRLs.
Completely untested (rsound dev libs unavailable on my system). Trivial
enough that it's very likely that it'll just work. No port selection,
but could be added by parsing it as part of the device name.
Should fix#4714.
This adds handling of spherical video metadata: retrieving it from
demux_lavf and demux_mkv, passing it through filters, and adjusting it
with vf_format. This does not include support for rendering this type of
video.
We don't expect we need/want to support the other projection types like
cube maps, so we don't include that for now. They can be added later as
needed.
Also raise the maximum sizes of stringified image params, since they
can get really long.
Tends to be somewhat glitchy if subtitles are enabled, and you enable
and disable tracks.
On error, this will disable --lavfi-complex, which will result in
whatever behavior.
Move multiple GL-specific things from the renderer to other places like
vo_opengl.c, vo_opengl_cb.c, and ra_gl.c.
The vp_w/vp_h parameters to gl_video_resize() make no sense anymore, and
are implicitly part of struct fbodst.
Checking the main framebuffer depth is moved to vo_opengl.c. For
vo_opengl_cb.c it always assumes 8. The API user now has to override
this manually. The previous heuristic didn't make much sense anyway.
The only remaining dependency on GL is the hwdec stuff, which is harder
to change.
Further work removing GL dependencies from the actual video renderer,
and moving them into ra backends.
Use of glInvalidateFramebuffer() falls away. I'd like to keep this, but
it's better to readd it once shader runs are in ra.
This was attempted before in fc9695e63b, but it was reverted in
1b7ce759b1 because it caused conflicts with other software watching
the same keys (See #2041.) It seems like some PCs ship with OEM software
that watches the volume keys without consuming key events and this
causes them to be handled twice, once by mpv and once by the other
software.
In order to prevent conflicts like this, use the WM_APPCOMMAND message
to handle media keys. Returning TRUE from the WM_APPCOMMAND handler
should indicate to the operating system that we consumed the key event
and it should not be propogated to the shell. Also, we now only listen
for keys that are directly related to multimedia playback (eg. the
APPCOMMAND_MEDIA_* keys.) Keys like APPCOMMAND_VOLUME_* are ignored, so
they can be handled by the shell, or by other mixer software.
This currently only works when using lcms-based color management
(--icc-profile-*).
In principle, we could also support using lcms even when the user has
not specified an ICC profile, by generating the profile against a fixed
reference (--target-prim/--target-trc) instead. I still might do that
some day, simply because 3dlut provides a higher quality conversion than
our simple gamut mapping does for stuff like BT.2020, and also because
it's now needed to enable embedded ICC profiles. But that would be a
separate change, so preserve the status quo for now.
(Besides, my opinion is still that you should be using an ICC profile if
you care about colors being accurate _at all_)
