* Remove win32/qt/xanim/real binary codecs loadingwm42012-08-161-176/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the win32 loader - the win32 emulation layer, as well as the code for using DirectShow/DMO/VFW codecs. Remove loading of xanim, QuickTime, and RealMedia codecs. The win32 emulation layer is based on a very old version of wine. Apparently, wine code was copied and hacked until it was somehow able to load a limited collection of binary codecs. It poked around in the code segment of some known binary codecs to disable unsupported win32 API calls to make them work. Example from module.c: for (i=0;i<5;i++) RVA(0x19e842)[i]=0x90; // make_new_region ? for (i=0;i<28;i++) RVA(0x19e86d)[i]=0x90; // call__call_CreateCompatibleDC ? for (i=0;i<5;i++) RVA(0x19e898)[i]=0x90; // jmp_to_call_loadbitmap ? for (i=0;i<9;i++) RVA(0x19e8ac)[i]=0x90; // call__calls_OLE_shit ? for (i=0;i<106;i++) RVA(0x261b10)[i]=0x90; // disable threads Just to show how utterly insane this code is. You wouldn't want even your worst enemy to have to maintain this. In fact, it seems nobody made major changes to this code ever since it was committed. Most formats can be decoded by libavcodecs these days, and the loader couldn't be used on 64 bit platforms anyway. The same is (probably) true for the other binary codecs. General note about how support for win32 codecs could be added back: It's not possible to replace the win32 loader code by using wine as library, because modern wine can not be linked with native Linux programs for certain reasons. It would be possible to to move DirectShow video decoding into a separate process linked with wine, like the CoreAVC-for-Linux patches do. There is also the mplayer-ww fork, which uses the dshownative library to use DirectShow codecs on Windows.
* Rename get_path.[ch] --> path.[ch].diego2010-03-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | These files now contain different functions related to path handling. git-svn-id: svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk@30943 b3059339-0415-0410-9bf9-f77b7e298cf2
* Move SetCodecPath() from loader to get_path.c and make it unconditional.diego2010-03-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | This fixes compilation with the Win32 loader disabled but other binary codec loaders enabled. git-svn-id: svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk@30942 b3059339-0415-0410-9bf9-f77b7e298cf2

* Replace separate Win32, XAnim and Real codec directories by one global dir.diego2010-03-141-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | Nowadays MPlayer does not use the codecs from other installed programs. A runtime setting will soon take over the rare case that binary codecs should be searched for in non-standard directories. git-svn-id: svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk@30888 b3059339-0415-0410-9bf9-f77b7e298cf2
* Do not cast the results of malloc/calloc/realloc.diego2010-02-261-2/+2
| | | | | | | | These functions return void*, which is compatible with any pointer, so there is no need for casts. git-svn-id: svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk@30744 b3059339-0415-0410-9bf9-f77b7e298cf2

| | | | | | | | We were using an inconsistent mix of the three variants and 'volatile' should be the most correct and portable variant. git-svn-id: svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk@27791 b3059339-0415-0410-9bf9-f77b7e298cf2
