* msg: remove the useless trailing comment from stats dumpingwm42015-10-141-4/+2
| | | | | The origin of the stats line was added as a comment (starting with '#'). It was useless and just blowing up file sizes.
* client API: allow using msg-level option for log messageswm42015-06-201-11/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Client API users can enable log output with mpv_request_log_messages(). But you can enable only a single log level. This is normally enough, but the --msg-level option (which controls the terminal log level) provides more flexibility. Due to internal complexity, it would be hard to provide the same flexibility for each client API handle. But there's a simple way to achieve basically the same thing: add an option that sends log messages to the API handle, which would also be printed to the terminal as by --msg-level. The only change is that we don't disable this logic if the terminal is disabled. Instead we check for this before the message is output, which in theory can lower performance if messages are being spammed. It could be handled with some more effort, but the gain would be negligible.

* options: remove unneeded hack from command line parserwm42015-04-231-10/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was traditionally needed to silence terminal output from errors during command line parsing preparsing. Preparsing is done so that options controlling the terminal and config files are parsed and applied first, with a second command line parsing pass applying all other options, _and_ printing error messages for the preparsed ones. But the hack silencing log output during the preparse pass is actually not needed anymore, since the terminal is enabled only after preparsing is finished. update_logging() in main.c does this. So as long as update_logging() is called before m_config_preparse_command_line(), this will work.

* msg: use relaxed atomics for log level testwm42015-03-021-1/+4
| | | | | | This should be sufficient. If stdatomic.h is not available, we make no difference.
* options: change --msg-level optionwm42015-02-061-31/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make it accept "," as separator, instead of only ":". Do this by using the key-value-list parser. Before this, the option was stored as a string, with the option parser verifying that the option value as correct. Now it's stored pre-parsed, although the log levels still require separate verification and parsing-on-use to some degree (which is why the msg-level option type doesn't go away). Because the internal type changes, the client API "native" type also changes. This could be prevented with some more effort, but I don't think it's worth it - if MPV_FORMAT_STRING is used, it still works the same, just with a different separator on read accesses.
* msg: add --log-file optionwm42015-01-261-0/+22
| | | | | | | | | This allows getting the log at all with --no-terminal and without having to retrieve log messages manually with the client API. The log level is hardcoded to -v. A higher log level would lead to too much log output (huge file sizes and latency issues due to waiting on the disk), and isn't too useful in general anyway. For debugging, the terminal can be used instead.
* command: make the "run" command work on Windows toowm42015-01-011-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | Do so by using mp_subprocess(). Although this uses completely different code on Unix too, you shouldn't notice a difference. A less ncie thing is that this reserves an entire thread while the command is running (which wastes some memory for stack, at least). But this is probably still the simplest way, and the fork() trick is apparently not implementable with posix_subprocess().
* Add some missing "const"swm42014-10-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | The one in msg.c was mistakenly removed with commit e99a37f6. I didn't actually test the change in ao_sndio.c (but obviously "ap" shouldn't be static).

* msg: fix unwanted blank lineswm42014-10-081-1/+3
| | | | Was broken in a commit earlier this day.
* client API: introduce numeric log levelswm42014-10-081-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Maybe using strings for log levels was a mistake (too broad and too impractical), so I'm adding numeric log level at least for the receiver side. This makes it easier to map mpv log levels to other logging systems. I'm still too stingy to add a function to set the log level by a numeric value, though. The numeric values are not directly mapped to the internal mpv values, because then almost every file in mpv would have to include the client API header. Coalesce this into API version 1.6, since 1.6 was bumped just yesterday.
* msg, client API: buffer partial lineswm42014-10-081-61/+73
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The API could return partial lines, meaning the message could stop in the middle of a line, and the next message would have the rest of it (or just the next part of it). This was a pain for the user, so do the nasty task of buffering the lines ourselves. Now only complete lines are sent. To make things even easier for the API user, don't put multiple lines into a single event, but split them. The terminal output code needed something similar (inserting a prefix header on start of each line). To avoid code duplication, this commit refactors the terminal output so that lines are split in a single place.
* msg, client API: never send the status line as log messagewm42014-10-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The status line is a bit special; for example it uses special control codes by design and is not terminated with a newline character in order to update it on the terminal without scrolling. It's not helpful for client API users either, and would require special-casing them (emulating aspects of a terminal?). Also, the status line code is explicitly disabled on osd.c unless the --terminal option is enabled, so there was no good way to even enable the status line for the API. Just pretend that the status line does not exist as far as the client API is concerned. It won't be sent as MPV_EVENT_LOG_MESSAGE.
* msg: set an explicit overflow messagewm42014-10-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | So client API users don't have to worry about this specifically. Also document the overflow case. (Not sure if we really need to do this; maybe it'd be better not to, since this just adds more noise to the docs.)
* Move compat/ and bstr/ directory contents somewhere elsewm42014-08-291-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | bstr.c doesn't really deserve its own directory, and compat had just a few files, most of which may as well be in osdep. There isn't really any justification for these extra directories, so get rid of them. The compat/libav.h was empty - just delete it. We changed our approach to API compatibility, and will likely not need it anymore.
* posix: use STD*_FILENO constantsBen Boeckel2014-08-281-2/+2
| | | | | Rather than "magic" numbers, use meaningful constant names provided by unistd.h.
* msg: allow duplicating a mp_logwm42014-08-251-15/+20
| | | | Trivial; this is mostly just reindenting the normal codepath.
* win32: emulate some ANSI terminal escape codeswm42014-08-211-12/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We already redirect all terminal output through our own wrappers (for the sake of UTF-8), so we might as well use it to handle ANSI escape codes. This also changes behavior on UNIX: we don't retrieve some escape codes per terminfo anymore, and just hardcode them. Every terminal should understand them. The advantage is that we can pretend to have a real terminal in the normal player code, and Windows atrocities are locked away in glue code.
* Remove the last remains of slave modewm42014-08-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Almost nothing was left of it. The only thing this commit actually removes is support for reading input commands from stdin. But you can emulate this via: --input-file=/dev/stdin --input-terminal=no However, this won't work on Windows. Just use a named pipe.
* build: allow compilation without any atomicswm42014-07-051-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Not all compilers on all platforms have atomics available (even if they could, technically speaking). We don't use atomics that much, only the following things rely on it: 1. the audio pull code, and all audio outputs using it 2. updating global msg levels 3. reading log messages through the client API Just disable 1. and 3. if atomics are not available. For 2., using fake- atomics isn't too bad; at worst, message levels won't properly update under certain situations (but most likely, it will work just fine). This means if atomics are not available, the client API function mpv_request_log_messages() will do nothing. CC: @mpv-player/stable
* Add more constwm42014-06-111-1/+1
| | | | | | | While I'm not very fond of "const", it's important for declarations (it decides whether a symbol is emitted in a read-only or read/write section). Fix all these cases, so we have writeable global data only when we really need.
* client API: call wakeup callback if there are new messageswm42014-06-061-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Listening on messages currently uses polling (every time mpv_wait_event() has no new events, the message buffer is polled and a message event is possibly created). Improve this situation a bit, and call the user-supplied wakeup callback. This will increase the frequency with which the wakeup callback is called, but the client is already supposed to be able to deal with this situation. Also, as before, calling mpv_wait_event() from the wakeup callback is forbidden, so the client can't read new messages from the callback directly. The wakeup pipe is written either. Since the wakeup pipe is created lazily, we can't access the pipe handle without creating a race condition or a deadlock. (This is actually very silly, since in practice the race condition won't matter, but for now let's keep it clean.)
* atomics: switch to C11 stdatomic.hwm42014-05-211-17/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In my opinion, we shouldn't use atomics at all, but ok. This switches the mpv code to use C11 stdatomic.h, and for compilers that don't support stdatomic.h yet, we emulate the subset used by mpv using the builtins commonly provided by gcc and clang. This supersedes an earlier similar attempt by Kovensky. That attempt unfortunately relied on a big copypasted freebsd header (which also depended on much more highly compiler-specific functionality, defined reserved symbols, etc.), so it had to be NIH'ed. Some issues: - C11 says default initialization of atomics "produces a valid state", but it's not sure whether the stored value is really 0. But we rely on this. - I'm pretty sure our use of the __atomic... builtins is/was incorrect. We don't use atomic load/store intrinsics, and access stuff directly. - Our wrapper actually does stricter typechecking than the stdatomic.h implementation by gcc 4.9. We make the atomic types incompatible with normal types by wrapping them into structs. (The FreeBSD wrapper does the same.) - I couldn't test on MinGW.
* options: remove deprecated --identifyMartin Herkt2014-05-041-8/+3
| | | | | | | Also remove MSGL_SMODE and friends. Note: The indent in options.rst was added to work around a bug in ReportLab that causes the PDF manual build to fail.
* terminal: fix printing of prefixwm42014-04-231-2/+3
| | | | This was subtly change in 5cfb18. Revert the change.
* player: add a --dump-stats optionwm42014-04-171-2/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This collects statistics and other things. The option dumps raw data into a file. A script to visualize this data is included too. Litter some of the player code with calls that generate these statistics. In general, this will be helpful to debug timing dependent issues, such as A/V sync problems. Normally, one could argue that this is the task of a real profiler, but then we'd have a hard time to include extra information like audio/video PTS differences. We could also just hardcode all statistics collection and processing in the player code, but then we'd end up with something like mplayer's status line, which was cluttered and required a centralized approach (i.e. getting the data to the status line; so it was all in mplayer.c). Some players can visualize such statistics on OSD, but that sounds even more complicated. So the approach added with this commit sounds sensible. The stats-conv.py script is rather primitive at the moment and its output is semi-ugly. It uses matplotlib, so it could probably be extended to do a lot, so it's not a dead-end.

* msg: add --msgtime option to add timestamps to each output messagewm42014-02-281-2/+9
| | | | | | | Will be helpful to track down strange wait times and such issues, as well when you have develop something timing related. (Then you may print timestamps in your debug output, and the --msgtime timestamps will help giving context.)
* options: add --no-terminal switchwm42014-02-101-13/+21
| | | | | Mostly useful for internal reasons. This code will be enabled by default if mpv is started via the client API.
* msg: clear lines by printing spaces on MS Windowswm42014-02-091-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On Windows, no ANSI control sequences are available, so we can't easily clear lines, move the cursor, etc. It's yet to be decided how this should be handled (emulate ANSI escapes in osdep/terminal-win.c, or provide abstracted terminal API functions to unify the Linux and Windows code). For now, this fixes the regression that was introduced earlier by the status line rewrite. It doesn't fix all aspects of status line and terminal OSD handling, as can be clearly seen by the unconditional use of terminal_erase_to_end_of_line further down the changed code. Fixes github issue #499 (sort of).
* msg: don't clear the status line if new and previous status was emptywm42014-01-291-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This avoids stray newlines when: 1. Some (non-status line) text was output 2. Then an empty status line is output According to the logic, 2. should print an empty line to show the blank status line. Don't do that, and instead output nothing in this case. This caused problems with mpv_identify.sh, and also looked ugly when using --quiet.
* msg: expose log level nameswm42014-01-161-3/+3

* msg: add a mechanism to output messages to a ringbufferwm42014-01-161-18/+140
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now, mp_msg output always went to the terminal. There was no way to grab the stream of output messages. But this will be needed by various future changes: Lua scripts, slave mode, client library... This commit allows registering a ring buffer. A callback would be more straight-forward, but since msg.c sits at the bottom of the lock hierarchy (it's used by virtually everything), this would probably be a nightmare. A ring buffer will be simpler and more predictable in the long run. We allocate new memory for each ringbuffer entry, which is probably a bit expensive. We could try to be clever and somehow pack the data directly into the buffer, but I felt like this wouldn't be worth the complexity. You'd have to copy the data a bunch of times anyway. I'm hoping that we can get away with using the ringbuffer mechanism for low frequency important messages only (and not e.g. for high volume debug messages), so the cost doesn't matter that much. A ringbuffer has a simple, single log level. I considered allowing --msglevel style per-prefix configuration for each ringbuffer, but that would have been pretty complicated to implement, and wouldn't have been that useful either.
* msg: move special declarations to msg_control.hwm42014-01-161-1/+2
| | | | | While almost everything uses msg.h, the moved definitions are rarely needed by anything.
* msg: print module prefixes even if message contains newlineswm42014-01-161-12/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This makes mp_msg(x, y, "a\nb\n") behave the same as mp_msg(x, y, "a\n") mp_msg(x, y, "b\n") which is probably what one would expect. Before this commit, the "b" line didn't have a prefix when using ths single mp_msg call.

* msg: terminal OSD uses stderr, not stdoutwm42014-01-151-1/+1
| | | | | | This is more correct. E.g. if you do "mpv file.mkv > /dev/null", stdout will not be a terminal, but stderr (used by terminal OSD and status line) is.

* player: redo terminal OSD and status line handlingwm42014-01-131-14/+78
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The terminal OSD code includes the handling of the terminal status line, showing player OSD messages on the terminal, and showing subtitles on terminal (the latter two only if there is no video window, or if terminal OSD is forced). This didn't handle some corner cases correctly. For example, showing an OSD message on the terminal always cleared the previous line, even if the line was an important message (or even just the command prompt, if most other messages were silenced). Attempt to handle this correctly by keeping track of how many lines the terminal OSD currently consists of. Since there could be race conditions with other messages being printed, implement this in msg.c. Now msg.c expects that MSGL_STATUS messages rewrite the status line, so the caller is forced to use a single mp_msg() call to set the status line. Instead of littering print_status() all over the place, update the status only once per playloop iteration in update_osd_msg(). In audio- only mode, the status line might now be a little bit off, but it's perhaps ok. Print the status line only if it has changed, or if another message was printed. This might help with extremely slow terminals, although in audio+video mode, it'll still be updated very often (A-V sync display changes on every frame). Instead of hardcoding the terminal sequences, use terminfo/termcap to get the sequences. Remove the --term-osd-esc option, which allowed to override the hardcoded escapes - it's useless now. The fallback for terminals with no escape sequences for moving the cursor and clearing a line is removed. This somewhat breaks status line display on these terminals, including the MS Windows console: instead of querying the terminal size and clearing the line manually by padding the output with spaces, the line is simply not cleared. I don't expect this to be a problem on UNIX, and on MS Windows we could emulate escape sequences. Note that terminal OSD (other than the status line) was broken anyway on these terminals. In osd.c, the function get_term_width() is not used anymore, so remove it. To remind us that the MS Windows console apparently adds a line break when writint the last column, adjust screen_width in terminal- win.c accordingly.

| | | | | | | I don't know under which circumstances this can error (other than a broken format string). It seems it won't return an error code on I/O errors, so maybe broken format strings are the only case. Either way, don't continue if an error is returned.
* msg: use a global lock to synchronize printingwm42013-12-201-4/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | We have certain race conditions coming from doing multiple fprintf() calls (setting up colors etc.). I'm not sure whether it would be worth changing to code such that we do only one fprintf() call (and assume this synchronizes access), but considering it would be hard to do (Windows compatibility, ...), and that stdio uses per FILE locks anyway, this is simpler and probably not less efficient. Also, there's no problem handling the weird statusline special case this way. Note that mp_msg_* calls which are silent won't acquire the lock, and acquiring the lock happens on actual output only (which is slow and serialized anyway).
* msg: change --msglevel, reduce legacy gluewm42013-12-201-25/+112
| | | | | | | | | | | | Basically, reimplement --msglevel. Instead of making the new msg code use the legacy code, make the legacy code use the reimplemented functionality. The handling of the deprecated --identify switch changes. It temporarily stops working; this will be fixed in later commits. The actual sub-options syntax (like --msglevel-vo=...) goes away, but I bet nobody knew about this or used this anyway.
