* options: win32: ignore and deprecate --fit-borderAvi Halachmi (:avih)2021-04-231-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The accurate description of this option was: - fit-border is enabled by default. When disabled, it adds a bug where if the window has borders and mpv shrinks it to fit the desktop, then the calculation ignores the borders and adds incorrect video crop. The option was added at commits 70f64f3c and 949247d6, in order to solve an issue (#2935) where if mpv wanted to display a video with size WxH, then w32_common.c incorrectly set the window to WxH, while down-scaling the video slightly to fit (even with small sizes). It was addressed with a new option which is enabled by default, but does the right thing (sets the client area to WxH) only when disabled, so that everyone who prefers their video slightly downscaled could keep their default behavior. (#2935 also addressed an off-by-one issue, fixed before fit-border) While disabling the option did avoid unnecessary downscaling, it also added a bug when disabled: the borders are no longer taken into account when the size is too big for the desktop. Most users don't notice and are unaffected as it's enabled by default. Shortly later (981048e0) the core issue is fixed, and now the client area is correctly set to WxH instead of the window (and together with the three following commits which center the video, adds a new bug where the window title can be outside the display - addressed next). However, fit-border remained, now without any effect, except that it still has the same bug when disabled and the window is too big. Later code changes and refactoring preserved this issue with great attention to details, and it remained in identical form until now. Simply rip out fit-border.
* options: Add validation macro for int typePhilip Langdale2021-03-281-0/+8

* demux: Move demuxer help to new standard mechanismPhilip Langdale2021-03-281-3/+4
| | | | | Previously, demux help was handled as a special case in main.c and this is no longer necessary.
* options: Make validation and help possible for all option typesPhilip Langdale2021-03-282-16/+48
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Today, validation is only possible for string type options. But there's no particular reason why it needs to be restricted in this way, and there are potential uses, to allow other options to be validated without forcing the option to have to reimplement parsing from scratch. The first part, simply making the validation function an explicit field instead of overloading priv is simple enough. But if we only do that, then the validation function still needs to deal with the raw pre-parsed string. Instead, we want to allow the value to be parsed before it is validated. That in turn leads to us having validator functions that should be type aware. Unfortunately, that means we need to keep the explicit macro like OPT_STRING_VALIDATE() as a way to enforce the correct typing of the function. Otherwise, we'd have to have the validator take a void * and hope the implementation can cast it correctly. For help, we don't have this problem, as help doesn't look at the value. Then, we turn validators that are really help generators into explicit help functions and where a validator is help + validation, we split them into two parts. I have, however, left functions that need to query information for both help and validation as single functions to avoid code duplication. In this change, I have not added an other OPT_FOO_VALIDATE() macros as they are not needed, but I will add some in a separate change to illustrate the pattern.
* player: add --screen-name and --fs-screen-nameDudemanguy2020-12-062-0/+4
| | | | | | Simple groundwork for adding a couple of user options that allow selecting the screen with a string name. The next two commits implements these options for xorg and wayland.
* Revert "options: disable vsfilter blur compat by default"rcombs2020-11-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This reverts commit 3d17e19c2c5ca80f916411e7e61126cac8443baa. The effect of turning off this setting is that mpv doesn't tell libass what the video stream's resolution is. This happens to result in some files having their transforms scaled in ways that give higher performance (as described in #7435) because libass happened to guess a video resolution that resulted in transforms yielding smaller bitmaps, but it's just as easy for the opposite to happen depending on the resolutions and effects involved. The option's name is also somewhat misleading: setting the storage size affects blur, but it also affects stroke (which is far more important for the vast majority of scripts) and 3D transforms (which look very screwy when done wrong).
* path: do not use old_home for win32 exe dirwm42020-11-161-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Apparently mpv supports loading config files from the same directory as the mpv.exe. This is a fallback of some sort. It used the old_home mechanism. I want to add a warning if old_home exists, but that would always show the warning on win32. Obviously we don't want that. Add a separate exe_dir entry to deal with that. Untested, but probably works. Mistakenly reverted as part of the default configuration directory location switch-back in aa18a8e1cde663caeabd93af7d57a745c1a76af6. Separation of the mpv executable directory from old_path is a good change now that we warn about the old_config directory also existing. Fixes #8232 Fixes #8244 Fixes #8262
* Revert "path: do not use old_home for win32 exe dir"Philip Langdale2020-10-161-1/+0
| | | | This reverts commit c3694f0acb7f71daac7606fafbadcb7b500ca35e.
* screenshot: add --screenshot-sw optionwm42020-10-052-0/+2
| | | | | Probably worthless. As usual, the manpage dumps all the subtle differences due to implementation details on the user.
* options: fix --cover-art-file typoGuido Cella2020-09-301-1/+1
| | | | ...which makes it not work.
* player: add automatic loading of external cover art fileswm42020-09-282-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Picks up files like "cover.jpg". It's made part of normal external file loading, so I'm adding 3 new options that are direct equivalents for the options that control loading of external subtitle and audio files. Even though I bet nobody wants them and they just increase confusion... I guess the world is actually hell, so this outcome should be fine. It prefers non-specific external files like "cover.jpg" over embedded cover art. Not sure if that's wanted or unwanted. There's some pain over explicitly marking such files as external pictures. This is basically an optimization: in most cases, a heuristic would treat an image file loaded with --external-file the same (it's a heuristic because ffmpeg can't tell us whether something is an image or a video). However, even with this heuristic, it would decode the cover art picture again on each seek, which would essentially slow down seeking in audio files. This bothered me greatly, which is why I'm adding these additional options at all, and bothered with the previous commit. Fixes: #3056
* mac: add an option to prevent focusing of the window on opender richter2020-09-252-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | on macOS 10.15 setting the activation policy behaves quite weirdly. the call changes the current active App to a nameless process, which probably also the reason that prevents the not focusing to work. a workaround for that, is to refocus the previous active app. Fixes #7725
* mac: add ontop window level for desktopder richter2020-09-201-2/+2

* options: do not accept ":" as separator anymore in key/value listswm42020-08-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Accepting ":" in addition to "," seems confusing and dumb. It only causing problems when you want to pass a value that contains ":". Remove support for ":", it is now treated like any other normal character. This affects all options that are listed as "Key/value list" in the option list. It's possible that this breaks for someone who happened to use ":" as separator. But this was undocumented, and never recommended. Originally, the option treated many other characters in a special way, but this was changed in commit a3d561f950e74fe. I'm, not sure why ":" was explicitly included. Maybe because -the absurd -vf/--af syntax uses ":" as list separator. But "," was always recommended and used in examples for key/value options. Fixes: #8021 (if you consider it a bug)
* player: add --subs-with-matching-audio optionrcombs2020-08-192-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | This allows users to control whether full dialogue subtitles are displayed with an audio track already in their preferred subtitle language. Additionally, this improves handling for the forced flag, automatically selecting between forced and unforced subtitle streams based on the user's settings and the selected audio.
* wayland: expose wayland-app-id as a user optionDudemanguy2020-08-142-0/+2
| | | | | This is extremely similar to x11's WM_CLASS. This commit allows users to set mpv's app-id at runtime for any of the wayland backends.
* sub: extend range of --sub-pos optionwm42020-08-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Seems like this is requested all the time. It seems libass allows out of range values, but does allows the subtitle to go out of the screen at the bottom (only when moving it to the top it's "clamped"). Too bad, don't do that then. The bitmap sub rendering code on the other hand is under our control, and will not move a subtitle out of the screen. Fixes: #7986
* sd_ass: force full reinit if certain options change at runtimewm42020-08-122-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | Options like --sub-ass-force-style and others could not be changed at runtime (the changes didn't take any effect). Fix this by using the brutal approach, and completely reinit the subtitle state when this happens. Maybe a bit clunky, but for now I'd rather not put more effort into this. Fixes: #7689
* options: add some way to more or less "unapply" profileswm42020-08-073-55/+124
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Make it possible to restore from profiles by backing up the option values before profile application. This is sort of like unapplying a profile. Since there might be multiple ways to do this, a profile needs to explicitly provide the "profile-restore" option, which specifies how exactly this should be done. This is a big mess. There is not natural way to do this. Profile application is "destructive" and simply changes the values of the options. Maybe one could argue that the option system should have hierarchical "overlays" of profiles instead, where unset options will use the value of the lower profiles. Options set interactively by the user would be the top profile. Default values would be in the lowest profile. You could unapply a profile by simply removing it from this overlay stack. But uh, let's not, so here's something stupid. It reuses some code used for file local options to reduce code size. At least the overlay idea would still be possible in theory, and could be added as another profile-restore mode. This is used by the following commit.
* auto_profiles: add this scriptwm42020-08-055-0/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is taken from a somewhat older proof-of-concept script. The basic idea, and most of the implementation, is still the same. The way the profiles are actually defined changed. I still feel bad about this being a Lua script, and running user expressions as Lua code in a vaguely defined environment, but I guess as far as balance of effort/maintenance/results goes, this is fine. It's a bit bloated (the Lua scripting state is at least 150KB or so in total), so in order to enable this by default, I decided it should unload itself by default if no auto-profiles are used. (And currently, it does not actually rescan the profile list if a new config file is loaded some time later, so the script would do nothing anyway if no auto profiles were defined.) This still requires defining inverse profiles for "unapplying" a profile. Also this is still somewhat racy. Both will probably be alleviated to some degree in the future.
* x11: add option to make window appear on a specific workspacewm42020-07-122-2/+14
| | | | | | | | | Mess this into the --geometry option, because I like to be irresponsible. I considered adding a separate option, but at least this allows me to defer the question how the hell this should work as property (geometry simply and inherently does not). Tested on IceWM only. Option equality test and string output not tested.
* path: fix broken exe-dir[/mpv] config locationsAvi Halachmi (:avih)2020-07-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | This is a regression since c3694f0, at least on Windows. Fixes #7889 Fixes #7881
* path: do not use old_home for win32 exe dirwm42020-06-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Apparently mpv supports loading config files from the same directory as the mpv.exe. This is a fallback of some sort. It used the old_home mechanism. I want to add a warning if old_home exists, but that would always show the warning on win32. Obviously we don't want that. Add a separate exe_dir entry to deal with that. Untested, but probably works.
* options: add --video-scale-x/ywm42020-06-032-0/+5
| | | | | | Requested. Fixes: #6303
* player: add --term-title optionwm42020-05-252-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This simply printf()s a concatenation of the provided string and the relevant escape sequences. No idea what exactly defines this escape sequence (is it just a xterm thing that is now supported relatively widely?), and this simply uses information provided on the linked github issue. Not much of an advantage over --term-status-msg, though at least this can have a lower update frequency. Also I may consider setting a default value, and then it shouldn't conflict with the status message. Fixes: #1725
* player: remove some display-adrop leftoverswm42020-05-232-4/+0
| | | | | Forgotten in one of the previous commits. Also undeprecates display-adrop since it's out of sight now.
* options: add option to control display-sync factorwm42020-05-232-0/+3
| | | | | | | | Can be useful to force it to adapt to extreme speed changes, while a higher limit would just use a fraction closer to the original video speed. Probably useful for testing only.
* options: update OSD when writing some OSD-related optionswm42020-05-091-9/+9
| | | | | | Just the usual change notification mess. Fixes: #7697
* options: don't trigger bool "compact" path for --loop-filewm42020-05-061-2/+2
| | | | | | | In theory an incompatible change, but I think it's for the better. Impact should be relatively low. I hope. Fixes: #7676
* player: slightly improve use of secondary track selection limitswm42020-04-151-0/+1
| | | | | | Apparently, this was a bit of a mess, which caused the bug fixed by commit ec7f2388af2df. Try to improve this, and only use track selection entries that exist.
* options: cleanup .min use for OPT_CHANNELSwm42020-04-092-5/+4
| | | | | | | | Replace use of .min==1 with a proper flag. This is a good idea, because it has nothing to do with numeric limits (also see commit 9d32d62b61547 for how this can go wrong). With this, m_option.min/max are strictly used for numeric limits.
* options: make imgfmt options always accept "no"wm42020-04-091-5/+2
| | | | | | | | This was optional, with the intention that normally such options require a valid format. But there is no reason for this (at least not anymore), and it's actually more logical to accept "no" in all situations this option type is used. This also gets rid of the weird min field special use.
* options: fix ab-loop-* propertieswm42020-04-093-4/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | These used ".min = MP_NOPTS_VALUE" to indicate certain exceptions. This broke with the recent change to how min/max are handled, which made setting min or max mean that a value range is used, thus setting max=0. Fix this by not using magic a value in .min; replace it with a proper flag. Fixes: #7596
* ipc: add --input-ipc-client optionwm42020-04-092-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | While --input-file was removed for justified reasons, wanting to pass down socket FDs this way is legitimate, useful, and easy to implement. One odd thing is that Fixes: #7592
* input: remove deprecated --input-file optionwm42020-03-282-3/+0
| | | | | This was deprecated 2 releases ago. The deprecation changelog entry says that there are no plans to remove it short-term, but I guess I lied.
* options: fix OPT_BYTE_SIZE upper limitswm42020-03-181-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As an unfortunate disaster, min/max values use the type double, which causes tons of issues with int64_t types. Anyway, OPT_BYTE_SIZE is often used as maximum for size_t quantities, which can have a size different from (u)int64_t. OPT_BYTE_SIZE still uses in64_t, because in theory, you could use it for file sizes. (demux.c would for example be capable of caching more than 2GB on 32 bit platforms if a file cache is used. Though for some reason the accounting code still uses size_t, so that use case is broken. But still insist that it _could_ be used this way.) There were various inconsistent attempts to set m_option.max to a value such that the size_t/int64_t upper limit is not exceeded. Due to the double max field, this didn't really work correctly. Try to fix this with the M_MAX_MEM_BYTES constant. It's a good approximation, because on 32 bit it should allow 2GB (untested, also would probably exhaust address space in practice but whatever), and something "high enough" in 64 bit. For some reason, clang 11 still warns. But I think this might be a clang bug, or I'm crazy. The result is correct anyway.
* m_option: attempt to fix two rounding issueswm42020-03-181-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | Since double has a mantissa too small to hold INT64_MAX in full precision, converting INT64_MAX to double rounds up. Insert some casts to silence corresponding warnings (as shown by clang 11). Also, the comparison in multiply_int64() was incorrect (I think...), because if v==(double)INT64_MAX, then v==(1<<64), which cannot be represented as int64_t. There are probably better ways to solve this.
* options: change option macros and all option declarationswm42020-03-182-672/+651
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Change all OPT_* macros such that they don't define the entire m_option initializer, and instead expand only to a part of it, which sets certain fields. This requires changing almost every option declaration, because they all use these macros. A declaration now always starts with {"name", ... followed by designated initializers only (possibly wrapped in macros). The OPT_* macros now initialize the .offset and .type fields only, sometimes also .priv and others. I think this change makes the option macros less tricky. The old code had to stuff everything into macro arguments (and attempted to allow setting arbitrary fields by letting the user pass designated initializers in the vararg parts). Some of this was made messy due to C99 and C11 not allowing 0-sized varargs with ',' removal. It's also possible that this change is pointless, other than cosmetic preferences. Not too happy about some things. For example, the OPT_CHOICE() indentation I applied looks a bit ugly. Much of this change was done with regex search&replace, but some places required manual editing. In particular, code in "obscure" areas (which I didn't include in compilation) might be broken now. In wayland_common.c the author of some option declarations confused the flags parameter with the default value (though the default value was also properly set below). I fixed this with this change.
* m_option: remove debug codewm42020-03-141-3/+0
| | | | | | | Forgot to remove this. Here you see my confusion and realization how casting INT64_MAX to double becomes INT64_MAX+1 (due to mantissa precision and rounding), so some things seemed not to make sense at first.
* options: introduce bool option type, use it for --fullscreenwm42020-03-144-9/+78
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The option code is very old and was added to MPlayer in the early 2000s, when C99 was still new. MPlayer did not use the "bool" type anywhere,l and the logical option equivalent to bool, the "flag" option type, used int, with the convention that only the values 0 and 1 are allowed. mpv may have hammered many, many additional tentacles to the option code, but some of the basics never changed, and m_option_type_flag still uses int. This seems a bit weird, since mpv uses bool for booleans. So finally introduce an m_option_type_bool. To avoid duplicating too much code, change the flag code to bool, and "reimplement" m_option_type_flag on top of m_option_type_bool. As a "demonstration", change the --fullscreen option to this new type. Ideally, all options would be changed too bool, and m_option_type_flag would be removed. But that is a lot of monotonous thankless work, so I'm not doing it, and making it a painful years long transition. At the same time, I'm introducing a new concept for option declarations. Instead of OPT_BOOL(), which define the full m_option struct contents, there's OPTF_BOOL(), which only takes the option field name itself. The name is provided via a normal struct field initializer. Other fields (such as flags) can be provided via designated initializers. The advantage of this is that we don't need tons of nested vararg macros. We also don't need to deal with 0-sized varargs being a pain (and in fact they are not a thing in standard C99 and probably C11). There is no need to provide a mandatory flags argument either, which is the reason why so many OPT_ macros are used with a "0" argument. (The flag argument seems to confuse other developers; they either don't immediately recognize what it is, and sometimes it's supposed to be the option's default value.) Not having to mess with the flag argument in such option macros is also a reason for the removal of M_OPT_RANGE etc., for the better or worse. The only place that special-cased the _flag option type was in command.c; change it to use something effectively very similar that automatically includes the new _bool option type. Everything else should be transparent to the change. The fullscreen option change should be transparent too, as C99 bool is basically an integer type that is clamped to 0/1 (except in Swift, Swift sucks).
* command: disable edition switching if there are no editionswm42020-03-141-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 8d965a1bfb3 changed option/property min/max handling. As a consequence, ranges that contain only 1 or 0 elements are not possible anymore. Normally that's fine, because it makes no sense to have an option that has only one or none allowed value (statically). But edition switching used some sort of mechanism where the property can return a different, dynamically decided range at runtime. That meant that if there were <2 editions, edition switching with the "cycle" command would always pick the same value. But with the recent commit, this changed to having "no range set" and would cycle through all integer values. Work this around with a simple change. Now, edition switching on a file without editions shows "edition: auto" instead of "edition: 0", which may appear odd. But the former is the --edition default value, and previous mpv versions rendered the edition property like this when not using switching. (Who the fuck uses editions?)
* options: change how option range min/max is handledwm42020-03-134-78/+103
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before this commit, option declarations used M_OPT_MIN/M_OPT_MAX (and some other identifiers based on these) to signal whether an option had min/max values. Remove these flags, and make it use a range implicitly on the condition if min<max is true. This requires care in all cases when only M_OPT_MIN or M_OPT_MAX were set (instead of both). Generally, the commit replace
