* options: remove M_SETOPT_RUNTIMEwm42019-11-101-9/+6
| | | | | | | Used to contain flags for "save" setting of options at runtime. Now there is nothing special needed anymore and it's 0. So drop it completely, and remove anything that distinguishes between runtime and initialization time.
* stats, demux: log byte level stream seekswm42019-11-071-0/+1

* img_format: remove some unused format flagswm42019-11-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | They were used at some point, but then fell into disuse. In general, these old flags are all a bit fuzzy, so it's a good idea to remove them as much as possible. The comment about MP_IMGFLAG_PAL isn't true anymore. The old meaning was deprecated at some point, and the flag was removed from "pseudo paletted" formats. I think mpv at one point changed its own flag from AV_PIX_FMT_FLAG_PSEUDOPAL to AV_PIX_FMT_FLAG_PAL, when the former was deprecated, and it became unnecessary to allocate a palette for non-paletted formats. (The one who deprecated in FFmpeg was me, if you wonder.) MP_IMGFLAG_PLANAR was used in command.c, use a relatively similar flag as replacement.
* command: remove some unused property metadatawm42019-10-251-16/+2
| | | | Also add an OSD entry for the video aspect.
* options: rename --video-aspect to --video-aspect-overrideNiklas Haas2019-10-041-2/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | The justification for this is the fact that the `video-aspect` property doesn't work well with `cycle_values` commands that include the value "-1". The "video-aspect" property has effectively no change in behavior, but we may want to make it read-only in the future. I think it's probably fine to leave as-is, though. Fixes #6068.
* stream_dvb: Allow actual zapping of channels again.Oliver Freyermuth2019-10-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is realized by dvbin-channel-switch-offset, which is a numeric offset on the channel initially tuned to. Since the channel list is kept in the stream alone depending on detected hardware and chosen card, and no available backchannel to the player, there's no direct property which could be switched. Using input.conf like: H cycle dvbin-channel-switch-offset up K cycle dvbin-channel-switch-offset down Q set dvbin-prog "ZDF HD" allow fast and reliable channel switching again.
* player: Add mp_property_dvb_channel helper.Oliver Freyermuth2019-10-021-0/+17
| | | | | | | Reinitializes the player as is needed when tuning to a new DVB channel. Currently triggered when dvbin-prog is written to, i.e. when the user explicity switches to a channel by name.
* command: fix bitrate rounding errorStefan Pöschel2019-09-261-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When the (float) bitrate is returned, it is implicitely converted to an int64 value, merely discarding the fractional part. However the bitrate of a CBR track can vary a bit due to timestamp precision loss after clock conversion (this can affect MPEG-TS audio tracks). So a bitrate like 191999.999... results in 191999 when being returned - instead of 192000. To fix this, apply proper rounding, as already done for the "old" case. Hereby refactoring the "old" case to also use `llrint`.
* command: add expand-path to expand mpv pathsNicolas F2019-09-221-0/+12
| | | | | | | The question came up on how a client would figure out where screenshot-directory saved its screenshots if it contained mpv-specific expansions. This command should remedy the situation by providing a way for the client to ask mpv to do an expansion.
* command: add sub-start & sub-end propertiesStefano Pigozzi2019-09-221-0/+34
| | | | | These properties contain the current subtitle's start and end times. Can be useful to cut sample audio through the scripting interface.

* command: drop removed cache properties from cache update eventswm42019-09-201-2/+2
| | | | These did nothing anymore, maybe made it slightly slower.
* command: make vf-metadata/af-metadata somewhat observablewm42019-09-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | Until now they weren't observable and never reported any updates. Apply a shitty hack to make them mostly-observable. It relies on the "idle" event, which is basically triggered on every frame displayed, or similar. This can lead to property change notifications not being sent quickly enough. The cleaner solution would be adding a notification mechanisms from filters, but I'm too lazy for that.
* command: make vf-metadata/af-metadata not query metadata twicewm42019-09-191-7/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | For simplicity, these properties usually query the metadata from the filter twice, even if it's not technically needed at all. The reason for this is mostly the horrible (and legacy) sub-path access (which is why tag_property() is so complex). But for simple cases, we can easily avoid double querying, so do that. The benefit is performance (well, won't matter), and supporting filters that reset information on query (for later).
* command: don't add deprecated CLI aliases to property listwm42019-09-191-0/+12
| | | | | | | A dumb thing that the cursed property-option bridge accidentally did. Normal deprecated options on the other hand are fine in the property list, because they're wanted for compatibility.
* command, demux: add AB-loop keyframe cache align commandwm42019-09-191-0/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Helper for the ab-loop-dump-cache command, see manpage additions. This is kind of shit. Not only is this a very "special" feature, but it also vomits more messy code into the big and already bloated demux.c, and the implementation is sort of duplicated with the dump-cache code. (Except it's different.) In addition, the results sort of depend what a video player would do with the dump-cache output, or what the user wants (for example, a user might be more interested in the range of output audio, instead of the video). But hey, I don't actually need to justify it. I'm only justifying it for fun.
* command: shuffle cache-dump start messagewm42019-09-191-2/+2
| | | | This is better?
* demux, command: add a third stream recording mechanismwm42019-09-191-1/+111
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | That's right, and it's probably not the end of it. I'll just claim that I have no idea how to create a proper user interface for this, so I'm creating multiple partially-orthogonal, of which some may work better in each of its special use cases. Until now, there was --record-file. You get relatively good control about what is muxed, and it can use the cache. But it sucks that it's bound to playback. If you pause while it's set, muxing stops. If you seek while it's set, the output will be sort-of trashed, and that's by design. Then --stream-record was added. This is a bit better (especially for live streams), but you can't really control well when muxing stops or ends. In particular, it can't use the cache (it just dumps whatever the underlying demuxer returns). Today, the idea is that the user should just be able to select a time range to dump to a file, and it should not affected by the user seeking around in the cache. In addition, the stream may still be running, so there's some need to continue dumping, even if it's redundant to --stream-record. One notable thing is that it uses the async command shit. Not sure whether this is a good idea. Maybe not, but whatever. Also, a user can always use the "async" prefix to pretend it doesn't. Much of this was barely tested (especially the reinterleaving crap), let's just hope it mostly works. I'm sure you can tolerate the one or other crash?
* screenshot: move message showing to common codewm42019-09-191-0/+18
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The screenshot command has this weird behavior that it shows messages both on terminal and OSD by default, but that a command prefix can be used to disable the OSD message. Move this mechanism to common code, and make this available to other commands too (although as of this commit only the screenshot commands use it). This gets rid of the weird screenshot_ctx.osd field too, which was sort of set on a command, and sometimes inconsistently restored after the command.
* demux: add a on-disk cachewm42019-09-191-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Somewhat similar to the old --cache-file, except for the demuxer cache. Instead of keeping packet data in memory, it's written to disk and read back when needed. The idea is to reduce main memory usage, while allowing fast seeking in large cached network streams (especially live streams). Keeping the packet metadata on disk would be rather hard (would use mmap or so, or rewrite the entire demux.c packet queue handling), and since it's relatively small, just keep it in memory. Also for simplicity, the disk cache is append-only. If you're watching really long livestreams, and need pruning, you're probably out of luck. This still could be improved by trying to free unused blocks with fallocate(), but since we're writing multiple streams in an interleaved manner, this is slightly hard. Some rather gross ugliness in packet.h: we want to store the file position of the cached data somewhere, but on 32 bit architectures, we don't have any usable 64 bit members for this, just the buf/len fields, which add up to 64 bit - so the shitty union aliases this memory. Error paths untested. Side data (the complicated part of trying to serialize ffmpeg packets) untested. Stream recording had to be adjusted. Some minor details change due to this, but probably nothing important. The change in attempt_range_joining() is because packets in cache have no valid len field. It was a useful check (heuristically finding broken cases), but not a necessary one. Various other approaches were tried. It would be interesting to list them and to mention the pros and cons, but I don't feel like it.
* command: show number of hidden items in OSD listswm42019-09-191-6/+12
| | | | Affects the "classic" OSD rendering of some properties, like playlists.
* options: rename --play-direction to --play-dirwm42019-09-191-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | And add simpler aliases for the modes. I'm not sure how to name things, and the option list is in general full of different conventions. Some names are shortened, some are explicit and long. I guess options that have a chance to be used normally (i.e. not obscure tuning or debugging) should have a short and convenient names. In this specific case, play-direction is like a mixture of both. It should be either playback-direction or play-dir, not shorten one word but not the other. The convenience aliases are because I got sick of typing out "backward". I guess "back" would also do it, but there's no proper antonym (and maybe it's "wrong" in the strict sense of the word).
* player: modify/simplify AB-loop behaviorwm42019-09-191-7/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes the behavior of the --ab-loop-a/b options. In addition, it makes it work with backward playback mode. The most obvious change is that the both the A and B point need to be set now before any looping happens. Unlike before, unset points don't implicitly use the start or end of the file. I think the old behavior was a feature that was explicitly added/wanted. Well, it's gone now. This is because of 2 reasons: 1. I never liked this feature, and it always got in my way (as user). 2. It's inherently annoying with backward playback mode. In backward playback mode, the user wants to set A/B in the wrong order. The ab-loop command will first set A, then B, so if you use this command during backward playback, A will be set to a higher timestamps than B. If you switch back to forward playback mode, the loop would stop working. I want the loop to just continue to work, and the chosen solution conflicts with the removed feature. The order issue above _could_ be fixed by also switching the AB-loop user option values around on direction switch. But there are no other instances of option changes magically affecting other options, and doing this would probably lead to unexpected misery (dying from corner cases and such). Another solution is sorting the A/B points by timestamps after copying them from the user options. Then A/B options set in backward mode will work in forward mode. This is the chosen solution. If you sort the points, you don't know anymore whether the unset point is supposed to signify the end or the start of the file. The AB-loop code is slightly better abstracted now, so it should be easy to restore the removed feature. It would still require coming up with a solution for backwards playback, though. A minor change is that if one point is set and the other is unset, I'm rendering both the chapter markers and the marker for the set point. Why? I don't know. My test file had chapters, and I guess I decided this looked better. This commit also fixes some subtle and obvious issues that I already forgot about when I wrote this commit message. It cleans up some minor code duplication and nonsense too. Regarding backward playback, the code uses an unsanitary mix of internal ("transformed") and user timestamps. So the play_dir variable appears more than usual. To mention one unfixed issue: if you set an AB-loop that is completely past the end of the file, it will get stuck in an infinite seeking loop once playback reaches the end of the file. Fixing this reliably seemed annoying, so the fix is "just don't do this". It's not a hard freeze anyway.
* Implement backwards playbackwm42019-09-191-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | See manpage additions. This is a huge hack. You can bet there are shit tons of bugs. It's literally forcing square pegs into round holes. Hopefully, the manpage wall of text makes it clear enough that the whole shit can easily crash and burn. (Although it shouldn't literally crash. That would be a bug. It possibly _could_ start a fire by entering some sort of endless loop, not a literal one, just something where it tries to do work without making progress.) (Some obvious bugs I simply ignored for this initial version, but there's a number of potential bugs I can't even imagine. Normal playback should remain completely unaffected, though.) How this works is also described in the manpage. Basically, we demux in reverse, then we decode in reverse, then we render in reverse. The decoding part is the simplest: just reorder the decoder output. This weirdly integrates with the timeline/ordered chapter code, which also has special requirements on feeding the packets to the decoder in a non-straightforward way (it doesn't conflict, although a bugmessmass breaks correct slicing of segments, so EDL/ordered chapter playback is broken in backward direction). Backward demuxing is pretty involved. In theory, it could be much easier: simply iterating the usual demuxer output backward. But this just doesn't fit into our code, so there's a cthulhu nightmare of shit. To be specific, each stream (audio, video) is reversed separately. At least this means we can do backward playback within cached content (for example, you could play backwards in a live stream; on that note, it disables prefetching, which would lead to losing new live video, but this could be avoided). The fuckmess also meant that I didn't bother trying to support subtitles. Subtitles are a problem because they're "sparse" streams. They need to be "passively" demuxed: you don't try to read a subtitle packet, you demux audio and video, and then look whether there was a subtitle packet. This means to get subtitles for a time range, you need to know that you demuxed video and audio over this range, which becomes pretty messy when you demux audio and video backwards separately. Backward display is the most weird (and potentially buggy) part. To avoid that we need to touch a LOT of timing code, we negate all timestamps. The basic idea is that due to the navigation, all comparisons and subtractions of timestamps keep working, and you don't need to touch every single of them to "reverse" them. E.g.: bool before = pts_a < pts_b; would need to be: bool before = forward ? pts_a < pts_b : pts_a > pts_b; or: bool before = pts_a * dir < pts_b * dir; or if you, as it's implemented now, just do this after decoding: pts_a *= dir; pts_b *= dir; and then in the normal timing/renderer code: bool before = pts_a < pts_b; Consequently, we don't need many changes in the latter code. But some assumptions inhererently true for forward playback may have been broken anyway. What is mainly needed is fixing places where values are passed between positive and negative "domains". For example, seeking and timestamp user display always uses positive timestamps. The main mess is that it's not obvious which domain a given variable should or does use. Well, in my tests with a single file, it suddenly started to work when I did this. I'm honestly surprised that it did, and that I didn't have to change a single line in the timing code past decoder (just something minor to make external/cached text subtitles display). I committed it immediately while avoiding thinking about it. But there really likely are subtle problems of all sorts. As far as I'm aware, gstreamer also supports backward playback. When I looked at this years ago, I couldn't find a way to actually try this, and I didn't revisit it now. Back then I also read talk slides from the person who implemented it, and I'm not sure if and which ideas I might have taken from it. It's possible that the timestamp reversal is inspired by it, but I didn't check. (I think it claimed that it could avoid large changes by changing a sign?) VapourSynth has some sort of reverse function, which provides a backward view on a video. The function itself is trivial to implement, as VapourSynth aims to provide random access to video by frame numbers (so you just request decreasing frame numbers). From what I remember, it wasn't exactly fluid, but it worked. It's implemented by creating an index, and seeking to the target on demand, and a bunch of caching. mpv could use it, but it would either require using VapourSynth as demuxer and decoder for everything, or replacing the current file every time something is supposed to be played backwards. FFmpeg's libavfilter has reversal filters for audio and video. These require buffering the entire media data of the file, and don't really fit into mpv's architecture. It could be used by playing a libavfilter graph that also demuxes, but that's like VapourSynth but worse.
* command: put seek ranges at the end of outputwm42019-09-191-12/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a minor benign hack that reorders the MPV_FORMAT_NODE output. The order of members is not supposed to matter, but it's how the OSD renders them as raw output. Normally this isn't used, but demuxer-cache-state is a "prominent" case. Moving the seek ranges to the end avoids that the more important other fields are not cut off by going out of the screen on the bottom. Also output the seek ranges in reverse. The order doesn't matter either (as declared by input.rst). Currently, the demuxer orders them by least recent use. Reversing it makes the most recently used range (the current range) show up on top. In other words, this commit does basically nothing but fudge stuff in a cosmetic way to make debugging easier for me, and you've wasted your time reading this commit message and the diff. Good.

| | | | | | | | Instead of going through those weird DEMUXER_CTRLs, query this information directly. I'm not sure which kind of brain damage made me use CTRLs for these. Since there are no other DEMUXER_CTRLs that make sense for the frontend, remove the remaining infrastructure for them too.
* demux: return stream file size differently, rip out stream ctrlswm42019-09-191-3/+1
| | | | | | | The stream size return was the only thing that still required doing STREAM_CTRLs from frontend through the demuxer layer. This can be done much easier, so rip it out. Also rip out the now unused infrastructure for STREAM_CTRLs via demuxer layer.

| | | | Useful for ytdl.
* command, demux: remove program propertywm42019-09-131-58/+0
| | | | | | | | | The "program" property could switch between TS programs. It was rather complex and rather obscure (even if you deal with TS captures, you usually don't need it). If anyone actually needs it (did anyone ever attempt to even use it?), it should be rewritten. The demuxer should export a program list, and the frontend should handle the "cycling" logic.
* Remove classic Linux analog TV support, and DVB runtime controlswm42019-09-131-185/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linux analog TV support (via tv://) was excessively complex, and whenever I attempted to use it (cameras or loopback devices), it didn't work well, or would have required some major work to update it. It's very much stuck in the analog past (my favorite are the frequency tables in frequencies.c for analog TV channels which don't exist anymore). Especially cameras and such work fine with libavdevice and better than tv://, for example: mpv av://v4l2:/dev/video0 (adding --profile=low-latency --untimed even makes it mostly realtime) Adding a new input layer that targets such "modern" uses would be acceptable, if anyone is interested in it. The old TV code is just too focused on actual analog TV. DVB is rather obscure, but has an active maintainer, so don't remove it. However, the demux/stream ctrl layer must go, so remove controls for channel switching. Most of these could be reimplemented by using the normal method for option runtime changes.
* Remove optical disc fancification layerswm42019-09-131-145/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This removes anything related to DVD/BD/CD that negatively affected the core code. It includes trying to rewrite timestamps (since DVDs and Blurays do not set packet stream timestamps to playback time, and can even have resets mid-stream), export of chapters, stream languages, export of title/track lists, and all that. Only basic seeking is supported. It is very much possible that seeking completely fails on some discs (on some parts of the timeline), because timestamp rewriting was removed. Note that I don't give a shit about optical media. If you want to watch them, rip them. Keeping some bare support for DVD/BD is the most I'm going to do to appease the type of lazy, obnoxious users who will care. There are other players which are better at optical discs.
