No wonder wm4 wanted to get rid of this. This option requires touching a
bunch of crap in the core player code. --stream-record works perfectly
fine and is a lot nicer so there's no need for this to exist anymore.
A bit different from the OPT_REPLACED/OPT_REMOVED ones in that the
options still possibly do something but they have a deprecation
message. Most of these are old and have no real usage. The only
potentially controversial ones are the removal of --oaffset and
--ovoffset which were deprecated years ago and seemingly have no real
replacement. There's a cryptic message about --audio-delay but who
knows. The less encoding mode code we have, the better so just chuck
it.
We've got an ungodly amount of OPT_REPLACED and OPT_REMOVED sitting
around in the code. This is harmless, but the vast majority of these are
ancient. 26f4f18c06 is the last commit
that touched the majority of these and of course that only changed how
options were declared so all of this stuff was deprecated even before
that. No use in keeping these, so just delete them all. As an aside,
there was actually a cocoa_opts but it had only a single option which
was replaced by something else and empty otherwise. So that entire thing
was just simply removed. OPT_REPLACED/OPT_REMOVED declarations that were
added in 0.35 or later were kept as is.
The defaults were awful and horribly regressed many files while also not
fixing banding on files that actually needed it, sometimes even
*increasing* banding due to the low threshold.

This probably makes `vo_gpu` tone mapping worse, or something, but who
cares. The status quo for a while now has been to use `vo_gpu_next` if
you care about HDR rendering at all.

This new filter is slightly sharper, and significantly faster, than
mitchell. It also tends to preserve detail better. All in all, there is
no reason not to use it by default, especially from a performance PoV.
(In vo_gpu_next, hermite is implemented efficiently using hardware
accelerated bilinear interpolation)

It can hurt people's feelings to refer to scalers as "high quality" and
"low quality", when it is so subjective.
I decided to preserve the lanczos sections at least because it's mostly
talking about the difference between EWA Lanczos and Lanczos, which is
less controversial than the difference between, say, Lanczos and
Catmull.
The goal is to provide simple to understand quality/performance level
profiles for the users.
Instead of default and gpu-hq profile. There main profiles were added:
- fast: can run on any hardware
- default: balanced profile between quality and performance
- high-quality: out of the box high quality experience. Intended
mostly for dGPU.
Summary of three profiles, including default one:
[fast]
scale=bilinear
cscale=bilinear (implicit)
dscale=bilinear
dither=no
correct-downscaling=no
linear-downscaling=no
sigmoid-upscaling=no
hdr-compute-peak=no
[default] (implicit mpv defaults)
scale=lanczos
cscale=lanczos
dscale=mitchell
dither-depth=auto
correct-downscaling=yes
linear-downscaling=yes
sigmoid-upscaling=yes
hdr-compute-peak=yes
[high-quality] (inherits default options)
scale=ewa_lanczossharp
cscale=ewa_lanczossharp (implicit)
hdr-peak-percentile=99.995
hdr-contrast-recovery=0.30
allow-delayed-peak-detect=no
deband=yes
scaler-lut-size=8
After fixing the B and C params for bcspline, it ended up being the same
thing as bicubic. There's no reason to have two names for the same
filter, so remove bcspline and keep bicubic to match libplacebo.
No need for this since it's entirely redundant with just changing the
filter radius directly. In fact, that's the whole *point* of the filter
radius - it does not modify the filter, it modifies the scaling of the
window.
Of course, this does not work for non-resizable kernels. But, really,
who cares?
And make it the default. In libplacebo, this uses internal heuristics to
pick a good size based on the actual ICC characteristics. This is
significantly less wasteful than always generating a 64x64x64 3DLUT (the
old status quo).
In vo_gpu, for simplicity, just default to 65x65x65. Note that this
provides slightly better accuracy than the old default of 64x64x64 for
technical reasons, and matches what libplacebo defaults to for typical
display profiles.
Adds catmull_rom as an example for --scale in the user manual, alongside
a brief description of the filter.
catmull_rom was only exposed to users as an available filter through
--scale=help. However, catmull_rom is very often aliased as "Bicubic" in
other applications such as GIMP and VapourSynth, and is a relatively
popular resizing filter. The documentation lacked any description of
catmull_rom, outside of a brief mention of it in the --tscale section.
While this resolves limitations of lavc decoder crop, it also introduces
artifacts with some of the source files or hwdec.
Depending on chroma sampler it is possible to sample outside the decoder
crop area, pulling dirty pixels into the image. Some decoders left them
zeroed, not black. To fix that we would need specifc solution during
mapping of avframes.
As most of the files require the crop only in bottom/right area, the
AVCodecContext::apply_cropping works ok for those.
For all other cases that require more fancy cropping like 1440x1080+240+0
user can manually set `--vd-apply-cropping=no`.
Limitations of the lavc crop are explained here:

In the never ending quest of trying to satisfy every possible user
request for subtitle autoselection, I ended up redoing how
--subs-fallback-forced works. The old behavior had it as strictly a
fallback-type option when there were no lang matches, but now we can
make it an active part of compare_track and it works along with slang to
select the desired track. Since it's a three state option, the no option
still works to avoid selecting any forced subtitle tracks. The meaning
of always slightly changes to mean "only select forced subtitle tracks"
and yes remains essentially the same (no special priority given besides
the audio matching subtitle language case).
Cropping by decoder has limitations with regards to aligment and hwdec.
It doesn't work to offset top left corner with hwdec and even with
software decoding it don't crop fully when resulting data would not be
aligned.
VO cropping is way more robust.
Setting `--video-crop=0x0+0+0` applies full frame crop, ignoring the
container one. Setting --video-crop=0 disables manual crop and restores
container one if it is available.
This makes it easier to apply crops without need to manually calc the
offset. I wanted for it to be top-left corner based, but maybe it was
not that good idea in retrospect.
Also rename scrw/scrh, since they don't refer to screen. It was copied
form m_geometry apply.
Third try is the charm? I stupidly missed that this option already
existed in my previous commits. Instead, add an auto value to it and
enable it by default for sd_lavc but not sd_ass. On my limited samples,
it seems to fix the gaps issue that can occur but without regressing
some duration timings for sub_lavc subtitles. Well hopefully anyway.
Fixes#12327.
We currently only allow specifying the Vulkan device to use by name. We
did this to avoid confusion around devices being enumerated in an
unpredictable order. However, there is a valid edge case where a system
may contain multiple devices of the same type - which means they will
have the same name, and so you can't control which one is used.
This change implements picking devices by UUID so that if names don't
work, you have some option available. As Vulkan 1.1 is a hard
requirement for libplacebo, we can just use UUIDs without conditional
checks.
Fixes#10898
The old mplayer / zap style format is not fully standardized across
channel scanners, so autodetection may fail if the file name
does not indicate the delivery system.
This is similar to DVB-T, but requires slightly different treatment
as there is no T/T2 differentiation.
Use a new channels.conf.isdbt file as channels config file.
There are way too many preexisting scripts that rely on this behavior
for video panning, like for example scripts that allow you to use mpv as
an image viewer. If this behavior is desired then it may be better to
add a new option for panning relative to the destination instead.
The restriction of video-pan-x/y being clamped to {-3, 3} also results
in the video being impossible to pan if it was zoomed in beyond a
certain degree.
This reverts commit 7d6f9e3739.
`--vo=gpu-next` no longer uses this option, being replaced entirely by a
luminance-based approach internally. And even for `--vo=gpu`, the values
other than 'hybrid' are universally inferior in quality.
In the interest of gradually reducing the amount of option bloat here,
remove this mostly-pointless option.
64959c450d solved the problems with resuming playback, so default to
--directory-mode=lazy because it's faster, especially on slow drives,
and results in smaller playlists.
If --slang was set to some language and it matched the subtitle track,
then --no-subs-with-matching-audio would do nothing. Fix the logic by
doing the --no-subs-with-matching-audio step at the end to ensure that
it always "wins" over whatever --slang or --subs-fallback has set.
Clarify the docs a bit to make it clearer that this is the intended
behavior. Fixes fbe8f99194.
The old name is pretty bad and users mistakenly think it has something
to do with selecting forced subtitles (that would be
--subs-fallback-forced). Instead of giving it such a generic name, make
it clearer that this has to do specifically with forced sub events
which is only relevant for a small minority of subtitles.
First of all, this never worked. Or if it ever did, it was in some
select few scenarios. c9474dc9ed is what
originally added support for the auto choice. However, that commit
worked by propagating a value to a fake option used internally. This
shouldn't have ever worked because the underlying m_config_cache was
never updated so the value shouldn't have been preserved when accessed
in sd_lavc. And indeed with some testing, the value there is always 0
unsurprisingly.
This was later rewritten in ba7cc07106
along with a lot of other sub changes, but with that, it was still
mostly broken. The reason is because one of the key parts of having to
hit this logic (prefer_forced) required `--no-subs-with-matching-audio`
to be set. If the audio language matches the subtitle language (the
requirement also excludes forced subs), the option makes no subtitle
selection in the first place so pick->forced_only_def is not set to true
and nothing even happens. Another way around this would be to attempt to
change your OS language (like with the LANG environment variable) so
that the subtitle track gets selected but then audio_matches mistakenly
becomes false because it compares the OS language to the audio language
which then make preferred_forced 0, so nothing happens. I don't think
there's a scenario where pick->forced_only_def is actually set to true
(thus meaning `auto` is useless), but maybe someone could contrive
something very strange. Regardless, it's definitely not something even
remotely common.
fbe8f99194 changed track selection again
but didn't consider this particular case. The net result is that DVD/PGS
subs become equivalent to --sub-forced-only being yes, so this a change
in behavior and probably not a good one. Note that I wasn't able to
actually observe any difference in a PGS sample. It still displayed
subtitles fine but that sample probably didn't have the right flags to
hit the sub-forced-only logic.
Anyways, the auto feature is extremely questionable at best and in my
view, not actually worth it. It is meant to be used with
`--no-subs-with-matching-audio` to display forced pictures in subtitle
tracks that are not marked as forced, but that contradicts that
particular option's purpose and description in the manual (secretly
selecting a track under certain conditions even though it says not to).
Instead of trying to shove all this logic into select_default_track
which is already insanely complicated as it is, recognize that this is a
trivial lua script. If you absolutely want to turn --sub-forced-only on
under these certain conditions (DVD/PGS subtitles, matching audio and
subtitle languages, etc.), just look at the current-tracks property and
do your thing. The very, very niche behavior that this option tried to
accomplish basically never worked, no user even knows what this option
does, and well it's just not worth supporting in core mpv code. Drop
all this code for sanity's sake and change --sub-forced-only back to a
bool.
In general, forced tracks should only be shown if they match the
language of the audio. However some people do want them no matter what,
so add an always option to this so such tracks are always selected.
This is the replacement for the previous auto option for slang. It
behaves similar however it never overrides slang if that is set and will
instead try to pick the subtitle that matches the user's language if
appropriately flagged by the file.
This proved to be too problematic. Depending on the value of
--subs-with-matching-audio, you could either end up with cases where
--slang wasn't respected and users didn't get subtitles or alternatively
cases where subtitles were given and the user didn't ask for them.
Fundamentally, the OS language functionality doesn't really map well to
slang (and for alang/vlang it makes zero sense; not that anyone actually
used it). Instead of trying to shove it in an option where it doesn't
belong, we should split this off into something else. So for now, just
remove the special handling of "auto" and flip slang back to NULL.
--audio-file-auto, --cover-art-auto, and --sub-auto all work by using an
internally hardcoded list that determine what file extensions get
recognized. This is fine and people periodically update it, but we can
actually expose this as a stringlist option instead. This way users can
add or remove any file extension for any type. For the most part, this
is pretty pretty easy and involves making sub_exts, etc. the defaults
for the new options (--audio-file-auto-exts, --cover-art-auto-exts, and
--sub-auto-exts). There's actually one slight complication however. The
input code uses mp_might_be_subtitle_file which guesses if the file drag
and dropped file is a subtitle. The input ctx has no access to mpctx so
we have to be clever here.
For this, the trick is to recognize that we can leverage the
m_option_change_callback. We add a new flag, UPDATE_SUB_EXTS, which
fires when the player starts up. Then in the callback, we can set the
value of sub_exts in external_files to opts->sub_auto_exts. Whenever the
option updates, the callback is fired again and sub_exts updates. That
way mp_might_be_subtitle_file can just operate off of this global
variable instead of trying to mess with the core mpv state directly.
Fixes#12000.
1fa6669bc0 misinterpreted the example and
changed the pixel value from 128 to 168 (thinking that it meant pixels
after scaling), but likely the original calculation was correct because
the line specifically says "of the source video". This is just confusing
not really useful information so instead change the example to a more
common resolution (1920x1080) and remove any references to the source
video resolution. Also mention video-pan-y while we're at it.
It makes it more usable to virtually move dst rect instead of scaled
src.
The issue with the latter is that it is affected by video-zoom
paramters. For example if we do `--video-pan-x=-0.5` in normal case it
will move video -50%, but if we apply video-zoom/scale the video will
float towards the middle in unintuitive way. Extreme case is when one do
--video-zoom-x=0.01, now it is impossible to move video unless you
specify huge video-pan-x value, but it is limited to [-3, 3]. So you
cannot do anything.
With this changes regardless of video scale/zoom, video-pan will keep
center of scaled video in one place.
