* DOCS: remove en/ sub-directorywm42014-06-201-720/+0
| | | | | This additional sub-directory doesn't serve any purpose anymore. Get rid of it.
* manpage: explicitly document protocolswm42014-06-201-12/+79
|
* stream: remove VCD supportwm42014-06-011-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | 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.
* manpage: mention bdnav://wm42014-05-201-2/+2

* etc/input.conf: add example how to change window size by key bindingwm42014-05-181-0/+2
| | | | Also drop a vague hint how to do it in the manpage.

* Remove radio://wm42014-04-131-1/+0
| | | | | It was disabled by default, works only for analogue radio, and I bet nobody uses it.
* manpage: remove author fieldwm42014-03-161-1/+0
| | | | | | There's already a more detailed "AUTHORS" section. Closes #647.
* lua: add option to disable auto-loading of lua scriptswm42014-02-281-1/+2
|
* manpage: remove unused environment variablewm42014-02-251-3/+0
| | | | We removed gettext (which was disabled by default) a while ago.
* lua: auto-load scripts from ~/.mpv/lua/wm42014-02-141-0/+5
| | | | This is like passing them to --lua.
* Switch PDF manual generation to rst2pdfMartin Herkt2014-01-081-5/+0
| | | | | | | This finally gets rid of the LaTeX dependency. We should actually be using docultils directly here, but I didn't do this because of all the potential Python 2/3 breakage.
* Allow some options taking filenames to refer to mpv config dirwm42013-12-141-0/+22
| | | | | | | | | | Add the mp_get_user_path() function, and make it expand special path prefixes. Use it for some things in mpv which take filenames (--input-config, --screenshot-template, opengl icc-profile suboption). This allows accessing files in the mpv config dir without hardcoding the config path by prefixing the path with ~~/. Details see manpage additions.
* dvdnav: select longest title by defaultwm42013-12-141-0/+1
| | | | This way we probably do the right thing, and avoid all the menu shit.
* manpage: remove some --flip leftoverswm42013-12-071-1/+1

* manpage: document , mapping (frame_back_step)enkore2013-11-221-0/+4
| | | | See #356
* timeline: add edl:// URIswm42013-11-191-0/+1
| | | | | Questionable change from user perspective, but internally needed to implement the next commit. Also useful for testing timeline stuff.
* docs: Add osc.rst to mpv.rstChrisK22013-10-151-3/+2
| | | | Also moved OPTIONS headline into options.rst
* Copyright, LICENSE: switch to GPL version 2 or laterwm42013-10-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that talloc has been removed, the license can be switched back to GPLv2+. Actually, there never was a GPLv2+ licensed MPlayer (fork or not) until now, but removal of some GPLv2-only code makes this possible now. Rewrite the Copyright file to explain the reasons for the licenses MPlayer and forks use. The old Copyright file didn't contain anything interesting anymore, and all information it contained is available at other places in the source tree. The reason for the license change itself is that it should improve interoperability with differently licensed code in general. This essentially reverts commit 1752808.
* Add initial Lua scripting supportwm42013-09-261-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is preliminary. There are still tons of issues, and any aspect of scripting may change in the future. I decided to merge this (preliminary) work now because it makes it easier to develop it, not because it's done. lua.rst is clear enough about it (plus some sarcasm). This requires linking to Lua. Lua has no official pkg-config file, but there are distribution specific .pc files, all with different names. Adding a non-pkg-config based configure test was considered, but we'd rather not. One major complication is that libquvi links against Lua too, and if the Lua version is different from mpv's, you will get a crash as soon as libquvi uses Lua. (libquvi by design always runs when a file is opened.) I would consider this the problem of distros and whoever builds mpv, but to make things easier for users, we add a terrible runtime test to the configure script, which probes whether libquvi will crash. This is disabled when cross-compiling, but in that case we hope the user knows what he is doing.

* manpage: remove version and date fieldswm42013-09-151-2/+0
| | | | | | | | These would have to be updated manually all the time. Replacing them automatically would be possible, but additional work, and would force regeneration of the manpage way too often. We decided that we don't need these fields.
* manpage: various improvementswm42013-09-101-27/+7
| | | | Took a superficial look at the manpage, and fixed whatever I spotted.
* Add PDF manual targetMartin Herkt2013-09-091-6/+5
| | | | | | This builds a PDF version of the manpage using rst2latex and pdflatex, and installs it to PREFIX/share/doc/mpv by default.
* Manpage: Fix formatting (mostly for PDF output)Martin Herkt2013-09-081-2/+2

* command: more intuitive chapter seek behaviorPhilip Sequeira2013-08-171-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | If close to chapter start, skipping back goes to previous chapter (no change). If more than <threshold> seconds in, skipping back will now go to the beginning of the current chapter instead. The threshold is set by the new option --chapter-seek-threshold and defaults to 5 seconds. A negative value disables the new functionality.
* stream: redo URL parsing, replace m_struct usage with m_configwm42013-08-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the URL parsing code from m_option.c to stream.c, and simplify it dramatically. This code originates from times when http code used this, but now it's just relict from other stream implementations reusing this code. Remove the unused bits and simplify the rest. stream_vcd is insane, and the priv struct is different on every platform, so drop the URL parsing. This means you can't specify a track anymore, only the device. (Does anyone use stream_vcd? Not like this couldn't be fixed, but it doesn't seem worth the effort, especially because it'd require potentially touching platform specific code.)

* Remove some leftovers from network removalwm42013-07-071-2/+2
| | | | | | | | stream_vstream.c in particular was actually dependent on the network code, and didn't compile anymore. Cleanup the protocol list in mpv.rst, and add some missing ones supported by libavformat to stream_lavf.c.

* core: add playback resume feature (manual/opt-in)wm42013-05-051-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A "watch later" command is now mapped to Shift+Q. This quits the player and stores the playback state in a config file in ~/.mpv/watch_later/. When calling the player with the same file again, playback is resumed at that time position. It's also possible to make mpv save playback state always on quit with the --save-position-on-quit option. Likewise, resuming can be disabled with the --no-resume-playback option. This also attempts to save some playback parameters, like fullscreen state or track selection. This will unconditionally override config settings and command line options (which is probably not what you would expect, but in general nobody will really care about this). Some things are not backed up, because that would cause various problems. Additional subtitle files, video filters, etc. are not stored because that would be too hard and fragile. Volume/mute state are not stored because it would mess up if the system mixer is used, or if the system mixer was readjusted in the meantime. Basically, the tradeoff between perfect state restoration and complexity/fragility makes it not worth to attempt to implement it perfectly, even if the result is a little bit inconsistent.
* input.conf: change default bindings of 5/6 from hue to gammawm42013-03-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | I doubt anyone needs to adjust hue on a frequent basis, and gamma is much more useful. Suggestions for more radical changes of key bindings are welcome (there's a lot of useless crap mapped).
* manpage: remove reference to subtitle alignmentwm42013-03-011-3/+0

* options: drop --opt:subopt option nameswm42013-02-231-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For all suboptions, "flat" options were available by separating the parent option and the sub option with ":", e.g. "--rawvideo:w=123". Drop this syntax and use "-" as separator. This means even suboptions are available as normal options now, e.g. "--rawvideo-w=123". The old syntax doesn't work anymore. Note that this is completely separate from actual suboptions. For example, "-rawvideo w=123:h=123" still works. (Not that this syntax is worth supporting, but it's needed anyway, for for other things like vf and vo suboptions.) As a consequence of this change, we also have to add new "no-" prefixed options for flag suboptions, so that "--no-input-default-bindings" works. ("--input-no-default-bindings" also works as a consequence of allowing "-input no-default-bindings" - they are handled by the same underlying option.) For --input, always use the full syntax in the manpage. There exist suboptions other than --input (like --tv, --rawvideo, etc.), but since they might be handled differently in the future, don't touch these yet. M_OPT_PREFIXED becomes the default, so remove it. As a minor unrelated cleanup, get rid of M_OPT_MERGE too and use the OPT_SUBSTRUCT() macro in some places. Unrelated: remove the duplicated --tv:buffersize option, fix a typo in changes.rst.
* manpage: improve configuration file section a bitwm42013-02-171-14/+37

* options: unify single dash and double dash optionswm42013-02-091-23/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There were two option syntax variations: "old": -opt value "new": --opt=value "-opt=value" was invalid, and "--opt value" meant "--opt=" followed by a separate option "value" (i.e. interpreted as filename). There isn't really any reason to do this. The "old" syntax used to be ambiguous (you had to call the option parser to know whether the following argument is an option value or a new option), but that has been removed. Further, using "=" in the option string is always unambiguous. Since the distinction between the two option variants is confusing, just remove the difference and allow "--opt value" and "-opt=value". To make this easier, do some other cleanups as well (e.g. avoid having to do a manual lookup of the option just to check for M_OPT_PRE_PARSE, which somehow ended up with finally getting rid of the m_config.mode member). Error reporting is still a mess, and we opt for reporting too many rather than too few errors to the user. There shouldn't be many user-visible changes. The --framedrop and --term-osd options now always require parameters. The --mute option is intentionally made ambiguous: it works like a flag option, but a value can be passed to it explicitly ("--mute=auto"). If the interpretation of the option is ambiguous (like "--mute auto"), the second string is interpreted as separate option or filename. (Normal flag options are actually ambiguous in this way too.)

* screenshot: minor simplification, prefer VF over VOwm42013-01-301-13/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove screenshot_force and associated logic. Always try to use the screenshot video filter before trying taking screenshots with the VO, which means that --vf=screenshot now takes the role of --vf=screenshot_force. (To make this clear, not adding a video filter is still the recommended way to take screenshots; we just change how VF screenshots are forced.) Preferring VO over VF and having --vf=screenshot_force used to make sense when not all VOs supported screenshots, and some VOs had somewhat broken screenshots (like vo_xv taking screenshots with OSD in it). But all these issues are fixed now, so just get rid of the cruft.
* manpage: mark HTTP related options as deprecated/brokenwm42012-12-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Commit c02f25 switched the "http://" protocol to use ffmpeg's HTTP implementation (stream_lavf.c), instead of the mplayer internal one (http.c). Unfortunately, it turns out that there are some network related options that are not respected by stream_lavf.c, and consequently do not work anymore for "http://" URLs. This might be fixed later. Mark them as deprecated for now, as it might take arbitrarily long until this is taken care of.
* demux_lavf: add support for libavdevicewm42012-12-031-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | libavdevice supports various "special" video and audio inputs, such as screen-capture or libavfilter filter graphs. libavdevice inputs are implemented as demuxers. They don't use the custom stream callbacks (in AVFormatContext.pb). Instead, input parameters are passed as filename. This means the mpv stream layer has to be disabled. Do this by adding the pseudo stream handler avdevice://, whose only purpose is passing the filename to demux_lavf, without actually doing anything. Change the logic how the filename is passed to libavformat. Remove handling of the filename from demux_open_lavf() and move it to lavf_check_file(). (This also fixes a possible bug when skipping the "lavf://" prefix.) libavdevice now can be invoked by specifying demuxer and args as in: mpv avdevice://demuxer:args The args are passed as filename to libavformat. When using libavdevice demuxers, their actual meaning is highly implementation specific. They don't refer to actual filenames. Note: libavdevice is disabled by default. There is one problem: libavdevice pulls in libavfilter, which in turn causes symbol clashes with mpv internals. The problem is that libavfilter includes a mplayer filter bridge, which is used to interface with a set of nearly unmodified mplayer filters copied into libavfilter. This filter bridge uses the same symbol names as mplayer/mpv's filter chain, which results in symbol clashes at link-time. This can be prevented by building ffmpeg with --disable-filter=mp, but unfortunately this is not the default. This means linking to libavdevice (which in turn forces linking with libavfilter by default) must be disabled. We try doing this by compiling a test file that defines one of the clashing symbols (vf_mpi_clear). To enable libavdevice input, ffmpeg should be built with the options: --disable-filter=mp and mpv with: --enable-libavdevice Originally, I tried to auto-detect it. But the resulting complications in configure did't seem worth the trouble.

* video/filter: rename vf_eq2 to vf_eqwm42012-11-161-2/+2
| | | | | vf_eq was deleted earlier, which makes the name vf_eq2 even more awkward.

* screenshot: change "screenshot" input commandwm42012-10-241-2/+3
| | | | | | | "screenshot" now maps to "screenshot subtitles" by default, instead of "screenshot video". Swap the argument order: the more useful argument should come first. Remove the compatibility aliases for numeric choices (e.g. "screenshot 1 0" won't work anymore).

* Rename to "mpv"wm42012-10-121-0/+676
This changes the name of this project to mpv. Most user-visible mentions of "MPlayer" and "mplayer" are changed to "mpv". The binary name and the default config file location are changed as well. The new default config file location is: ~/.mpv/ Remove etc/mplayer.desktop. Apparently this was for the MPlayer GUI, which has been removed from mplayer2 ages ago. We don't have a logo, and the MS Windows resource files sort-of require one, so leave etc/mplayer.ico/.xpm as-is. Remove the debian and rpm packaging scripts. These contained outdated dependencies and likely were more harmful than useful. (Patches which add working and well-tested packaging are welcome.)
