* Remove things related to old OSDwm42012-10-241-24/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To ease changing all the VOs to the new OSD rendering, fallbacks, conversions, support code etc. was left all over the code. Now that all VOs have been changed, all that code is inactive. Remove it. Strip down spudec.c. We don't need the old grayscale and scaling stuff anymore. (Not removing spudec itself yet - I'm not confident that the libavcodec DVD sub decoder is sufficient, and it would also require some hacks to get DVD palette and resolution information from libdvdread to libavcodec.) The option --spuaa, --spualign, --spugauss were used with the old sub scaling code, and don't do anything anymore.

| * 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.
| * input: add input test modewm42012-10-141-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In input test mode, key bindings won't be executed, but are shown on the OSD. The OSD includes various information, such as the name of the key, the command itself, whether it's builtin, and the config file location it was defined. The input test mode can be enabled with "--input=test". No effort is spent trying to react to key bindings that normally exit the player; they are treated just like any other binding.
| * core: show quvi page title in window title, clean up libquvi handlingwm42012-10-141-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Clean up handling of libquvi (which resolves URLs of streaming sites into URLs to the actual media playable by mpv). Move the code out of open.c to quvi.c, and invoke it explicitly from mplayer.c, instead of trying to resolve every filename passed to open_stream(). This allows easily passing metadata from the quvi context to the frontend. Expose QUVIPROP_PAGETITLE as "media-title" property, and use that instead of "filename" for the mplayer window title. (For YouTube, this is the video title.) It's cleaner too. Handle a potential reliability issue: check quvi_getprop return values. Since open.c contains barely anything but the open_stream() stub, move that to stream.c and delete open.c.

| | * commands: use "up" and "down" as 2nd argument for cycle commandwm42012-10-121-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Allow the values "up" and "down" as step argument for the cycle input command. Previously, this argument was a float, which specified an arbitrary step value and direction (similar to the add command). Instead of "1" and "-1", "up" and "down" is to be used. Float values are still accepted. That capability might be removed in the future, as there's probably hardly any actual use for arbitrary step values.
| | * commands: add print_text input command to print text on the terminalwm42012-10-121-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In theory, this could take over the role of the get_property slave command, and is more general.
| | * sub: add --ass-style-override option to disable style overrideswm42012-10-122-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are a number of options which modify ASS subtitle rendering. Most of these do things that can interfere with the styling done by subtitle scripts, resulting in incorrect rendering. Add the --ass-style-override option to make it easy to disable all overrides. This helps trouble- shooting, and makes it more practical to use the override features. (You can simply toggle the ass-style-override property at runtime, should one of the style override options break subtitle rendering at a certain point.) This mainly affects whether most --ass-* options are applied, as well as --sub-pos. Some things, like explicit style overrides loaded with --ass-force-style, can't be changed at runtime using the ass-style-override property.
| | * options: add --status-msgwm42012-10-121-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replaces the status line with a custom string. This is probably useful for hacking old slave mode applications into working again. Even if not, this might be generally useful.
| | * manpage: document input.conf related thingswm42012-10-124-17/+367
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This directly corresponds to DOCS/OUTDATED-tech/slave.txt. Changes from the recent commits are included too.
| | * commands: add more property-option bridge uses, rename some optionswm42012-10-122-7/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make more properties use the property-to-option bridge to reduce code size and to enforce consistency. Some options are renamed to the same as the properties (the property names are better in all cases). Do some other minor cleanups. One bigger issue was memory management of strings: M_PROPERTY_TO_STRING assumed the strings were statically allocated, and no dynamic allocations could be returned. Fix this in case the need for such properties arises in the future. Get rid of m_property_string_ro(), because it's not always clear that the "action" parameter is M_PROPERTY_SET and the string argument will be used.
| | * options: accept "yes" and "no" only for flagswm42012-10-121-11/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes the alternative values like "off", "0", "false" etc., and also the non-English versions of these. This is done for general consistency. It's better to have a single way of doing things when multiple ways don't add singificant value. Also update some choices for consistency.
| | * commands: rename "osdlevel" option and property, make it a choicewm42012-10-123-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
| | * commands: replace --hardframedrop, change framedropping propertywm42012-10-122-7/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace --hardframedrop with --framedrop=hard. Rename the framedrop property from "framedropping" to "framedrop" for the sake of making command line options have the same name as their corresponding property. Change the property to accept choice values instead of numeric values. Remove unused/forgotten auto_quality variable.
| * | Rename to "mpv"wm42012-10-128-211/+198
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 -> openglwm42012-10-033-209/+212
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
| * | Remove useless video filterswm42012-10-031-649/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Most of these have very limited actual use, or are even entirely useless. They only serve to bloat the codebase and to make life harder. Drowning users in tons of barely useful filters isn't exactly helpful either. Some of these filters were redundant or marked as obsolete. The dlopen and lua (to be added soon) video filters provide ways to add custom filters. Detailed listing for each filter with reasons (with contributions from divVerent and lachs0r): 1bpp: Replaced by "scale". 2xsai: Pixel art scaling algorithm, useless with lossy video. blackframe: Not very useful. Apparently one use is combining it with scripts, that pass the bmovl: Weirdly complex and insane (using FIFO commands), questionable use. cropdetect: Only sort-of useful when used with scripts, and then it will be very fragile. It's probably better to use the dlopen rectangle filter, or to implement the common use-case in a better way. decimate: Not needed/useful with modern video codecs, is an encoding-only filter. denoise3d: "hqdn3d" is better. detc: Some of the worse deteleciners. dint: Useless, actually crashes. (On an assert in vf.c that is disabled by default in mplayer-svn.) dvbscale: Not even practical, and the same effect can be achieved through other means. eq: Worse/older version of eq2. field: Limited use, available as dlopen filter. fil: Quoting the manpage: This filter is very similar to the il filter but much faster, the main disadvantage is that it does not always work. Especially if combined with other filters it may produce randomly messed up images, so be happy if it works but do not complain if it does not for your combination of filters. filmdint: Kind of redundant with pullup, and slightly worse. fixpts: Never useful. (Most if not all filters have been fixed for PTS.) framestep: Questionable use. For things like creating thumbnails, ffmpeg or --sstep should be used. geq: Limited use, will be redundant with the "lua" filter. halfpack: Useless, probably redundant with "scale". harddup: Useless. hue: Most VOs support this. il: Useless. ivtc: Another of the worse deteleciners. kerndeint: A bad deinterlacer. lavc: For DVB output devices. We removed that support. lavcdeint: A bad deinterlacer, was already deprecated. Still available as --vf=pp=fd. mcdeint: A broken deinterlacer that uses lavc internals. ow: Very slow, barely any quality benefit over "hqdn3d". palette: Done by "scale". perspective: Files with incorrect perspective are extremely rare. About the only real-world use for this is keystone correction, which is usually done in hardware by the projector or by graphics drivers/compositors. pp7: Another useless postprocessing filter with bad and complicated code. Use libpostprocess with "pp" instead. qp: Useless. remove-logo: Redundant with delogo, which is better and more practical. rgbtest: Useless. sab, smartblur, boxblur: Blur filters, redundant to "unsharp". softskip: Does nothing. spp, fspp, uspp: Useless postprocessing filters. "spp" needs ffmpeg internals. "fspp" is the optimized version of the "spp" filter (???), while "uspp" is the slow version (????). Use libpostprocess with "pp" instead. telecine: Evil and useless. Available as dlopen filter for testing purposes. test: Useless. tfields: Useless, probably. tile: Questionable use. Available as dlopen filter. tinterlace: Evil and useless. yuvcsp: Probably useless. yvu9: Redundant with "scale". Also remove the following left-over files: vd_null.c, vqf.h
| * | encode: remove dependency on current ffmpegRudolf Polzer2012-10-011-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Apparently, libav doesn't have the change for the new way to create a libavformat context merged yet. So, we can't use that... Rather, this commit fixes format specific avoptions another way. On the downside, invalid format options are now detected very late, and any attempt to set an option value to +something or -something will append to the previously set option value (this logic can no longer be specific to options of bitflag type, as finding out the option type is what we simply cannot do with this interface).
| * | encode: add options --ovfirst and --oafirstRudolf Polzer2012-09-291-17/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows to define which stream is to be used as first output stream. This is useful because dvdauthor refuses VOB files where the audio stream is the first stream.
