* vo_opengl: remove osdcolor suboptionwm42012-11-161-6/+0
| | | | | | This wasn't actually used since the old gray-alpha OSD rendering has been removed. Removing the documentation for the vo_opengl_old osdcolor suboption was forgotten as well.
* manpage: various fixeswm42012-11-161-8/+7

* vo_opengl: disable extended downscaling by defaultwm42012-11-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | | To simplify implementation, the same filter kernel was used for both directions, even when the scaling factors were different. It turns out that people actually did this, and that the resulting rendering errors were rather visible. Disable this feature by default, as fixing it would require structural changes, and it's a useless anyway.
* manpage: vo_opengl: document that srgb subopt changes gammawm42012-11-111-1/+2

* manpage: cleanupwm42012-10-241-2/+5
| | | | | Removing text about things that have been removed from the code long ago, other fixes.
* VO, sub: refactorwm42012-10-241-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove VFCTRL_DRAW_OSD, VFCAP_EOSD_FILTER, VFCAP_EOSD_RGBA, VFCAP_EOSD, VOCTRL_DRAW_EOSD, VOCTRL_GET_EOSD_RES, VOCTRL_QUERY_EOSD_FORMAT. Remove draw_osd_with_eosd(), which rendered the OSD by calling VOCTRL_DRAW_EOSD. Change VOs to call osd_draw() directly, which takes a callback as argument. (This basically works like the old OSD API, except multiple OSD bitmap formats are supported and caching is possible.) Remove all mentions of "eosd". It's simply "osd" now. Make OSD size per-OSD-object, as they can be different when using vf_sub. Include display_par/video_par in resolution change detection. Fix the issue with margin borders in vo_corevideo.
* manpage: improvements to vo_opengl documentationwm42012-10-151-7/+19
| | | | | | | | Mention the FBO format chaos. Some other things were not entirely correct anymore. Also update the "builtin" documentation in vo_opengl.c.

| * commands: rename "osdlevel" option and property, make it a choicewm42012-10-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Rename both the option and property to "osd-level", which fits a bit better with the general naming scheme. Make it a choice instead of an integer range. I failed to come up with good names for the various levels, so leave them as-is. Remove the useless property handler for the "loop" property too.
* | Rename to "mpv"wm42012-10-121-6/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.)
* | vo_opengl: change default FBO formatwm42012-10-031-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GL_RGB16 doesn't seem to work universally (e.g. Intel). Use GL_RGB by default, and use GL_RGB16 for "opengl-hq" only. This may require users of Intel GPUs to manually experiment with the fbo-format suboption when using "opengl-hq", as GL_RGB16 doesn't seem to work there in some cases (black screen).
* | vo_opengl: use PBOs by default with opengl-hqwm42012-10-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's not really known whether PBO use causes problems of any kind (most likely not). They should slightly increase performance. Use them by default with "opengl-hq". Even though PBOs don't have anything to do with rendering quality, "opengl-hq" provides a test bed for features that should be enabled by default, but aren't out of fear for regressions.
* | vo_opengl: use low quality default settings, add opengl-hq aliaswm42012-10-031-10/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change the default settings for vo_opengl to highest performance and compatibility, but lowest quality. Use bilinear as default scaler. Add "opengl-hq" as alias for high quality settings. This alias uses exactly the same settings as vo_opengl did before this commit.
* | VO: actually rename VOs gl -> opengl-old, gl3 -> openglwm42012-10-031-206/+209
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This renames vo_gl3 to vo_opengl, and makes it the default. The old vo_gl is still available under "opengl-old". We keep "gl3" as alias to "opengl" for short-term compatibility. For OSX/Cocoa, the autoprobe order changes (prefer the "opengl" over "opengl-old"). Remove "gl_nosw". This was a compatibility alias for "opengl-old", and there's no point in keeping it.
* | vo_gl3: make it work on OpenGL 2.1wm42012-10-031-8/+10
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now vo_gl3 should work with standard OpenGL 2.1, as long as the GL_ARB_texture_rg extension is available. Optional features, which require features that are always in OpenGL 3.0, but are available as extensions only in OpenGL 2.1, are automatically disabled. The force-gl2 suboption, which was an unreliable hack to run vo_gl3 in an OpenGL 2.1 context, is removed. Significant changes are done to the extension loader to make it easier to identify optional OpenGL features. Context creation is a bit changed to simplify the code and to handle the fallback better if OpenGL 3 context creation fails, and creating an OpenGL legacy context is attempted. Based on the initial work by Rudolf Polzer <divverent@xonotic.org>, which included making the shader GLSL 1.20 compatible, and more.

* VO: remove vo_directfb2 and vo_directxwm42012-08-161-30/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | While being able to play videos on a framebuffer device would be nice, I didn't need it, and couldn't even test it (buggy nvidia binary drivers that disable framebuffers, buggy DirectFB that crashes when using the X11 backend). It's just dead weight, get rid of it. vo_directx was very horrible, and by today it's mostly useless. I didn't remove it, because there was that-guy who told me in amazement how awesome mplayer was, because it was the only video player fast enough for fast playback on his system when using vo_directx. Sorry, that-guy.
* vo_sharedbuffer: remove this VOStefano Pigozzi2012-08-151-11/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since slave mode is not planned to be kept, this VO is useless and I'm removing it. This VO was useful for OSX GUIs. Since in cocoa you can't embed views in windows from other processes, this VO was writing to a sharedbuffer with mmap. The OSX GUIs would then read from the buffer and render the image with an external renderer. If in the future we will want to support GUIs we will need to reasearch the IOSurface framework. This allows to share kernel managed image data across processes and integrates well with OpenGL.
* manpage: document gl3, direct3d, portaudio, remove v4l2wm42012-08-081-15/+299
| | | | | | | | | The documentation is mostly taken from the help text embedded in the code of each output driver. vo_v4l2 and ao_v4l2 have been removed. Minor modifications to vo_xv, vo_directx and vo_gl.

* VO: remove VO direct renderingwm42012-08-021-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was disabled by default, and could be enabled with -dr. It was disabled by default because it was buggy: there were issues with OSD corruption. It wasn't entirely sane for OpenGL based VOs either. OpenGL can chose to drop mapped pixel buffer objects, requiring the application to map and fill the buffer again. But there was no mechanism in mplayer to fill the lost buffer again. (It seems this rarely happened in practice, though.) On the other side, users liked the --dr flag, because it promised them more speed. I'm not sure if it actually helped with speed, but it's unlikely it had any real advantages on modern systems. In order to evade the --dr cargo culting in mplayer config files, it's best to get rid of it.

* manpage: merge new manpagewm42012-08-021-0/+731
About a year ago, ubitux converted most of the old manpage from the hard to maintain nroff format to reStructuredText. This was not merged back into the master repository immediately. The argument was that the new manpage still required work to be done. However, progress was very slow. Even worse: the old manpage wasn't updated, because it was scheduled for deletion, and updating it would have meant useless work. Now the situation is that the new manpage still isn't finished, and the old manpage is grossly out of sync with the player. This is not helpful for users. Additionally, keeping the new manpage in a separate branch, while the normal development repository for code had the old manpage, was very inconvenient, because you couldn't just update the documentation in the same commit as the code. Even though the new manpage isn't finished yet, merging it now seems to be the best course of action. Squash-merge the manpage development branch [1], revision e89f5dd3f2, which branches from the mplayer2 master branch after revision 159102e0cb. Committers: * Clément Bœsch <ubitux@gmail.com> (Initial conversion to RST.) * Uoti Urpala <uau@mplayer2.org> (Many updates.) * Myself (Minor edits.) Most text of the manpage has been directly taken from the old manpage, because this is a conversion, not a complete rewrite. [1] http://git.mplayer2.org/uau/mplayer2.git/log/?h=man
