* libarchive: some shitty hack to make opening slightly fasterwm42020-01-041-0/+20
| | | | | | | | See manpage additions. The libarchive behavior mentioned in the last paragraph there is technically unrelated, but makes this new option mostly pointless. See: #7182
* stream_libarchive: some more hacks to improve multi-volume archiveswm42020-01-041-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | Instead of opening every volume on start just to see if it's there, all all volumes that could possibly exist, and "handle" it on opening. This requires working around some of libarchive's amazing stupidity and using some empirically determined behavior. Will possibly break if libarchive changes some of this behavior. See: #7182
* playlist: change from linked list to an arraywm42019-12-281-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Although a linked list was ideal at first, there are cases where it sucks, and became increasingly awkward (with the mpv command API preferring integer indexes to access the list). In future, we probably want to add more playlist-related functionality, so better change it to an array now. An array isn't always ideal either. Since playlist entries are still separate objects (because in some cases you need a stable "iterator" to it), but you still need to efficiently get the next/previous playlist entry, there's a pl_index field, that needs to be maintained. E.g. adding an entry at the start of the playlist => update the pl_index field for all other entries. Well, it's not really worth to do something more complicated to avoid these things. This commit is probably buggy as shit. It's not like I bothered to test everything. That's _your_ role.
* stream, demux: redo origin policy thingwm42019-12-201-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mpv has a very weak and very annoying policy that determines whether a playlist should be used or not. For example, if you play a remote playlist, you usually don't want it to be able to read local filesystem entries. (Although for a media player the impact is small I guess.) It's weak and annoying as in that it does not prevent certain cases which could be interpreted as bad in some cases, such as allowing playlists on the local filesystem to reference remote URLs. It probably barely makes sense, but we just want to exclude some other "definitely not a good idea" things, all while playlists generally just work, so whatever. The policy is: - from the command line anything is played - local playlists can reference anything except "unsafe" streams ("unsafe" means special stream inputs like libavfilter graphs) - remote playlists can reference only remote URLs - things like "memory://" and archives are "transparent" to this This commit does... something. It replaces the weird stream flags with a slightly clearer "origin" value, which is now consequently passed down and used everywhere. It fixes some deviations from the described policy. I wanted to force archives to reference only content within them, but this would probably have been more complicated (or required different abstractions), and I'm too lazy to figure it out, so archives are now "transparent" (playlists within archives behave the same outside). There may be a lot of bugs in this. This is unfortunately a very noisy commit because: - every stream open call now needs to pass the origin - so does every demuxer open call (=> params param. gets mandatory) - most stream were changed to provide the "origin" value - the origin value needed to be passed along in a lot of places - I was too lazy to split the commit Fixes: #7274
* libarchive: prefix entry names in archive URLs with '/'wm42019-12-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | This has the advantage that playlists within the archive will work as expected, because demux_playlist will correctly join the archive base URL and entry name. Before this change, it could skip before the "|", resulting in a broken URL.
* stream: turn into a ring buffer, make size configurablewm42019-11-061-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In some corner cases (see #6802), it can be beneficial to use a larger stream buffer size. Use this as argument to rewrite everything for no reason. Turn stream.c itself into a ring buffer, with configurable size. The latter would have been easily achievable with minimal changes, and the ring buffer is the hard part. There is no reason to have a ring buffer at all, except possibly if ffmpeg don't fix their awful mp4 demuxer, and some subtle issues with demux_mkv.c wanting to seek back by small offsets (the latter was handled with small stream_peek() calls, which are unneeded now). In addition, this turns small forward seeks into reads (where data is simply skipped). Before this commit, only stream_skip() did this (which also mean that stream_skip() simply calls stream_seek() now). Replace all stream_peek() calls with something else (usually stream_read_peek()). The function was a problem, because it returned a pointer to the internal buffer, which is now a ring buffer with wrapping. The new function just copies the data into a buffer, and in some cases requires callers to dynamically allocate memory. (The most common case, demux_lavf.c, required a separate buffer allocation anyway due to FFmpeg "idiosyncrasies".) This is the bulk of the demuxer_* changes. I'm not happy with this. There still isn't a good reason why there should be a ring buffer, that is complex, and most of the time just wastes half of the available memory. Maybe another rewrite soon. It also contains bugs; you're an alpha tester now.
* demux: sort filenames naturally when playing a directory / archivePhilip Sequeira2019-09-291-1/+2

* stream: create memory streams in more straightforward waywm42019-09-191-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of having to rely on the protocol matching, make a function that creates a stream from a stream_info_t directly. Instead of going through a weird indirection with STREAM_CTRL, add a direct argument for non-text arguments to the open callback. Instead of creating a weird dummy mpv_global, just pass an existing one from all callers. (The latter one is just an artifact from the past, where mpv_global wasn't available everywhere.) Actually I just wanted a function that creates a stream without any of that bullshit. This goal was slightly missed, since you still need this heavy "constructor" just to setup a shitty struct with some shitty callbacks.
* demux: change hack for closing subtitle files earlywm42019-09-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Subtitles (and a few other file types, like playlists) are not streamed, but fully read on opening. This means keeping the file handle or network socket open is a waste of resources and could cause other weird behavior. This is why there's a hack to close them after opening. Change this hack to make the demuxer itself do this, which is less weird. (Until recently, demuxer->stream ownership was more complex, which is why it was done this way.) There is some evil shit due to a huge ownership/lifetime mess of various objects. Especially EDL (the currently only nested demuxer case) requires being careful about mp_cancel and passing down stream pointers. As one defensive programming measure, stop accessing the "stream" variable in open_given_type(), even where it would still work. This includes removing a redundant line of code, and removing the peak call, which should not be needed anymore, as the remaining demuxers do this mostly correctly.
* demux, stream: add option to prevent opening referenced fileswm42016-12-041-0/+3
| | | | Quite irresponsibly hacked together. Sue me.
* libarchive: unify entry iteration between stream/demux layerswm42016-07-181-16/+3
| | | | No really good reason to duplicate this.
* libarchive: remove redundant log prefixKevin Mitchell2015-11-091-1/+1
| | | | "libarchive:" is already added by the logging system
* demux_libarchive: don't allow probing to read unlimited datawm42015-08-241-5/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead, allow reading 2KB only. This seems to be sufficient for libarchive to recognize zip, 7z, rar, tar. Good enough. This is implemented by creating an in-memory stream with a copy of the file header. If libarchive succeeds opening this, the actual stream is opened. Allowing unlimited reading could break unseekable streams, such as playing from http servers with no range request support or pipes. Also, we try not to read too much data in the first probe pass. Some slow network streams like shoutcast services could make probing much slower if we allow it to read too much. In the second probing pass, actually allow 200KB.
* demux_libarchive: reject 0-sized fileswm42015-08-181-0/+3
| | | | libarchive does strange things with them.
* demux_libarchive: open flat compressed fileswm42015-08-171-1/+4
| | | | | | | | Things like .gz etc., which have no real file header. A mixed bag, because it e.g. tends to misdetect mp3 files as compressed files or something (of course it has no mp3 support - I don't know as what it detects them). But requested by someone (or maybe not, I'm not sure how to interpret that).
* stream: libarchive wrapper for reading compressed archiveswm42015-08-171-0/+88
This works similar to the existing .rar support, but uses libarchive. libarchive supports a number of formats, including zip and (most of) rar. Unfortunately, seeking does not work too well. Most libarchive readers do not support seeking, so it's emulated by skipping data until the target position. On backwards seek, the file is reopened. This works fine on a local machine (and if the file is not too large), but will perform not so well over network connection. This is disabled by default for now. One reason is that we try libarchive on every file we open, before trying libavformat, and I'm not sure if I trust libarchive that much yet. Another reason is that this breaks multivolume rar support. While libarchive supports seeking in rar, and (probably) supports multivolume archive, our support of libarchive (probably) does not. I don't care about multivolume rar, but vocal users do.
