* vo_rpi: update renderer size on display size changes toowm42015-05-011-0/+2
| | | | | | | | (Not sure why it worked without this when I tested the previous changes.) Untested, but should be fine. This is equivalent what is done on e.g. panscan changes.

* vo_rpi: actually draw a black backgroundwm42015-04-301-23/+65
| | | | | | | | Also factor the display size initialization into a separate function. For some reason this seems to work, although setting the background color using this 1x1 pixel bitmap does not work. I blame the RPI beign a terrible piece of hardware with even worse drivers.
* vo_rpi: explicitly reference MMAL VC driverwm42015-04-131-0/+8
| | | | | | | This is optional, but ensures that linking with -Wl,--as-needed does not drop the MMAL VC driver. The driver normally "registers" itself in the library constructor, but since no symbols are explicitly referenced, the linker could remove it with as-needed enabled.
* video/out: fix screenshot image formatswm42015-04-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | Use variants without alpha. I skipped vo_sdl, because format selection seems a bit more complicated here, and nobody cares about vo_sdl anymore.
* RPI supportwm42015-03-291-0/+567
This requires FFmpeg git master for accelerated hardware decoding. Keep in mind that FFmpeg must be compiled with --enable-mmal. Libav will also work. Most things work. Screenshots don't work with accelerated/opaque decoding (except using full window screenshot mode). Subtitles are very slow - even simple but huge overlays can cause frame drops. This always uses fullscreen mode. It uses dispmanx and mmal directly, and there are no window managers or anything on this level. vo_opengl also kind of works, but is pretty useless and slow. It can't use opaque hardware decoding (copy back can be used by forcing the option --vd=lavc:h264_mmal). Keep in mind that the dispmanx backend is preferred over the X11 ones in case you're trying on X11; but X11 is even more useless on RPI. This doesn't correctly reject extended h264 profiles and thus doesn't fallback to software decoding. The hw supports only up to the high profile, and will e.g. return garbage for Hi10P video. This sets a precedent of enabling hw decoding by default, but only if RPI support is compiled (which most hopefully it will be disabled on desktop Linux platforms). While it's more or less required to use hw decoding on the weak RPI, it causes more problems than it solves on real platforms (Linux has the Intel GPU problem, OSX still has some cases with broken decoding.) So I can live with this compromise of having different defaults depending on the platform. Raspberry Pi 2 is required. This wasn't tested on the original RPI, though at least decoding itself seems to work (but full playback was not tested).
