* vd_lavc, vdpau, vaapi: restore emulated API avoidancewm42017-12-021-0/+2
| | | | | | This code is for trying to avoid using an emulation layer when using auto probing, so that we end up using the actual API the drivers provide. It was destroyed in the recent refactor.
* video: refactor hw device creation for hwdec copy modeswm42017-12-011-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Lots of shit code for nothing. We probably could just use libavutil's code for all of this. But for now go with this, since it tends to prevent stupid terminal messages during probing (libavutil has no mechanism to selectively suppress errors specifically during probing). Ignores the "emulated" API flag (for avoiding vaapi/vdpau wrappers), but it doesn't matter that much for -copy anyway.
* vdpau: remove some more dead codewm42017-10-161-3/+0

* Add checks for HAVE_GPL to various GPL-only source fileswm42017-10-101-0/+5
| | | | | | | | This should actually cover all of them, if you take into account that some unchanged GPL source files include header files with such checks. Also this was done already for the libaf derived code. This is only for "safety" and to avoid misunderstandings.
* vdpau: support new vdpau libavcodec decode APIwm42017-03-231-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new API works like the new vaapi API, using generic hwaccel support. One minor detail is the error message that will be printed if using non-4:2:0 surfaces (which as far as I can tell is completely broken in the nVidia drivers and thus not supported by mpv). The HEVC warning (which is completely broken in the nVidia drivers but should work with Mesa) had to be added to the generic hwaccel code. This also trashes display preemption recovery. Fuck that. It never really worked. If someone complains, I might attempt to add it back somehow. This is the 4th iteration of the libavcodec vdpau API (after the separate decoder API, the manual hwaccel API, and the automatic vdpau hwaccel API). Fortunately, further iterations will be generic, and not require much vdpau-specific changes (if any at all).
* vdpau: use libavutil for surface allocation during decodingwm42017-01-171-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use the libavutil vdpau frame allocation code instead of our own "old" code. This also uses its code for copying a video surface to normal memory (used by vdpau-copy). Since vdpau doesn't really have an internal pixel format, 4:2:0 can be accessed as both nv12 and yuv420p - and libavutil prefers to report yuv420p. The OpenGL interop has to be adjusted accordingly. Preemption is a potential problem, but it doesn't break it more than it already is. This requires a bug fix to FFmpeg's vdpau code, or vdpau-copy (as well as taking screenshots) will fail. Libav has fixed this bug ages ago.
* vdpau: get surface data as nv12 if possiblewm42016-06-211-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For now, this affects taking screenshots only. If the video mixer is actually needed, we want to go through the video mixer for screenshots too - which is why this function simply always used the video mixer, and then copied the surface to RAM as RGBA. Add reading the surface as nv12 if possible. If the format is correct, and no special video processing (like deinterlacing) is used, then it's read directly without going through the video mixer. There's no particular reason for doing this, other than avoiding the video mixer (like vo_opengl can do it now). Also, the next commit will make use of this in vf_vdpaurb.c.
* vdpau: force driver to report preemption earlywm42016-01-251-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Another fix for the crazy and insane nvidia preemption behavior. This time, the situation is that we are using vo_opengl with vdpau interop, and that vdpau got preempted in the background while mpv was sitting idly. This can be e.g. reproduced by using: --force-window=immediate --idle --hwdec=vdpau and switching VTs. Then after switching back, load a video file. This will not let mp_vdpau_handle_preemption() perform preemption recovery, simply because it will do so only once vdp_decoder_create() has been called. There are some other API calls which trigger preemption, but many don't. Due to the way the libavcodec API works, vdp_decoder_create() is way too late. It does so when get_format returns. It notices creating the decoder fails, and continues calling get_format without the vdpau format. We could perhaps force it to reinit again (by adding a call to vdpau.c, that checks for preemption, and sets hwdec_request_reinit), but this seems too much of a mess. Solve it by calling API in mp_vdpau_handle_preemption() that empirically does trigger preemption: output_surface_put_bits_native(). This call is useless, and in fact should be doing nothing (empty update VdpRect). There's the slight chance that in theory it will slow down operation, but in practice it's bound to be harmless. It's the likely cheapest and simplest API call I've found that can trigger the fallback this way. (The driver is closed source, so it was up to trial & error.) Also, when initializing decoding, allow initial preemption recovery, which is needed to pass the test mention above.
* video: reduce error message when loading hwdec backend failswm42015-06-201-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using --hwdec=auto, about half of all systems will print: "[vdpau] Error when calling vdp_device_create_x11: 1" this happens because usually mpv will be linked against both vdpau and vaapi libs, but the drivers are not necessarily available. Then trying to load a driver will fail. This is a normal part of probing, but the error messages were printed anyway. Silence them by explicitly distinguishing probing. This pretty much goes through all the layers. We actually consider loading hw backends for vo_opengl always "auto probed", even if a hw backend is explicitly requested. In this case vd_lavc will print a warning message anyway (adjust this message a bit).
* video: handle hwdec screenshots differentlywm42015-01-221-2/+8
| | | | | | | | Instead of converting the hw surface to an image in the VO, provide a generic way to convet hw surfaces, and use this in the screenshot code. It's all relatively straightforward, except vdpau is being terrible. It needs a huge chunk of new code, because copying back is not simple.
* video: have a generic context struct for hwdec backendswm42015-01-221-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | Before this commit, each hw backend had their own specific struct types for context, and some, like VDA, had none at all. Add a context struct (mp_hwdec_ctx) that provides a somewhat generic way to pass the hwdec context around. Some things get slightly better, some slightly more verbose. mp_hwdec_info is still around; it's still needed, but is reduced to its role of handling delayed loading of the hwdec backend.
* vdpau/GLX: don't access VO backendwm42014-12-031-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | Same as with the previous commits. In theory, vdpau/x11 GL interop doesn't assume GLX. It could use EGL as well. But since it's always GLX in practice, so we're fine with this. Remove the gl_hwdec.mpgl field - it's unused now.
* vdpau: allocate surfaces by agewm42014-08-111-0/+2
| | | | | Whether this helps is probably questionable and depends on the GPU. But the vaapi code does it too.
* video: warn if an emulated hwdec API is usedwm42014-05-281-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | mpv supports two hardware decoding APIs on Linux: vdpau and vaapi. Each of these has emulation wrappers. The wrappers are usually slower and have fewer features than their native opposites. In particular the libva vdpau driver is practically unmaintained. Check the vendor string and print a warning if emulation is detected. Checking vendor strings is a very stupid thing to do, but I find the thought of people using an emulated API for no reason worse. Also, make --hwdec=auto never use an API that is detected as emulated. This doesn't work quite right yet, because once one API is loaded, vo_opengl doesn't unload it, so no hardware decoding will be used if the first probed API (usually vdpau) is rejected. But good enough.
* vdpau: move RGB surface management out of the VOwm42014-05-221-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | Integrate it with the existing surface allocator in vdpau.c. The changes are a bit violent, because the vdpau API is so non-orthogonal: compared to video surfaces, output surfaces use a different ID type, different format types, and different API functions. Also, introduce IMGFMT_VDPAU_OUTPUT for VdpOutputSurfaces wrapped in mp_image, rather than hacking it. This is a bit cleaner.
* vdpau: make mp_vdpau_ctx thread-safewm42014-05-101-5/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Preparation so that various things related to video can run in different threads. One part to this is making the video surface pool safe. Another issue is the preemption mechanism, which continues to give us endless pain. In theory, it's probably impossible to handle preemption 100% correctly and race-condition free, unless _every_ API user in the same process uses a central, shared mutex to protect every vdpau API call. Otherwise, it could happen that one thread recovering from preemption allocates a vdpau object, and then another thread (which hasn't recovered yet) happens to free the object for some reason. This is because objects are referenced by integer IDs, and vdpau will reuse IDs invalidated by preemption after preemption. Since this is unreasonable, we're as lazy as possible when it comes to handling preemption. We don't do any locking around the mp_vdpau_ctx fields that are normally immutable, and only can change when recovering from preemption. In practice, this will work, because it doesn't matter whether not-yet-recovered components use the old or new vdpau function pointers or device ID. Code calls mp_vdpau_handle_preemption() anyway to check for the preemption event and possibly to recover, and that function acquires the lock protecting the preemption state. Another possible source of potential grandiose fuckup is the fact that the vdpau library is in fact only a tiny wrapper, and the real driver lives in a shared object dlopen()ed by the wrapper. The wrapper also calls dlclose() on the loaded shared object in some situations. One possible danger is that failing to recreate a vdpau device could trigger a dlclose() call, and that glibc might unload it. Currently, glibc implements full unloading of shared objects on the last dlclose() call, and if that happens, calls to function pointers pointing into the shared object would obviously crash. Fortunately, it seems the existing vdpau wrapper won't trigger this case and never unloads the driver once it's successfully loaded. To make it short, vdpau preemption opens up endless depths of WTFs. Another issue is that any participating thread might do the preemption recovery (whichever comes first). This is easier to implement. The implication is that we need threadsafe xlib. We just hope and pray that this will actually work. This also means that once vdpau code is actually involved in a multithreaded scenario, we have to add XInitThreads() to the X11 code.
* vo_vdpau, vo_opengl: handle vdpau preemption differentlywm42014-05-101-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use the newly provided mp_vdpau_handle_preemption() function, instead of accessing mp_vdpau_ctx fields directly. Will probably make multithreaded access to the vdpau context easier. Mostly unrelated to the actual changes, I've noticed that using hw decoding with vo_opengl sometimes leads to segfaults inside of nvidia's libGL when doing the following: 1. use hw decoding + vo_opengl 2. switch to console (will preempt on nvidia systems) 3. switch back to X (mpv will recover, switches to sw decoding) 4. enable hw decoding again 5. exit mpv Then it segfaults when mpv finally calls exit(). I'll just blame nvidia, although it seems likely that something in the gl_hwdec_vdpau.c preemption handling triggers corner cases in nvidia's code.
* vdpau: handle display preemption during decodingwm42014-05-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | This was broken for some time, and it didn't recover correctly. Redo decoder display preemption. Instead of trying to reinitialize the hw decoder, simply fallback to software decoding. I consider display preemption a bug in the vdpau API, so being able to _somehow_ recover playback is good enough. The approach taking here will probably also make it easier to handle multithreading.
* vdpau: deduplicate video surface upload codewm42014-05-041-0/+3
| | | | | | | This was a minor code duplication between vf_vdpaupp.c and vo_vdpau.c. (In theory, we could always require using vf_vdpaupp with vo_vdpau, but I think it's better if vo_vdpau can work standalone.)
* vdpau: remove pointer indirection for a fieldwm42014-03-191-1/+1
| | | | There's no reason to. This is basically a cosmetic change.
* vdpau: remove legacy pixel formatswm42014-03-171-2/+2
| | | | | | They were used by ancient libavcodec versions. This also removes the need to distinguish vdpau image formats at all (since there is only one), and some code can be simplified.

* vdpau: move device and video surface management from vo_vdpau.c to vdpau.cwm42013-11-051-4/+23
| | | | | The goal is being able to use vdpau decoding independently from vo_vdpau.c.
* core: move contents to mpvcore (2/2)Stefano Pigozzi2013-08-061-1/+1
| | | | Followup commit. Fixes all the files references.
* build: fix build with vdpau, simplifywm42013-07-291-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of generating vdpau_template.c with a Perl script, just include the generated file in git. This is ok because it changes very rarely, and the script is larger than the output it generates. It also simplify the Makefile, and fixes the build. The problem was that transitive dependencies do not work with generated files: there is no dependency information yet when building it the first time. I overlooked this because I didn't delete the .d files for testing (which contained the correct dependencies, but only _after_ a first successful build).
* vdpau: split off decoder parts, use "new" libavcodec vdpau hwaccel APIwm42013-07-281-0/+55
Move the decoder parts from vo_vdpau.c to a new file vdpau_old.c. This file is named so because because it's written against the "old" libavcodec vdpau pseudo-decoder (e.g. "h264_vdpau"). Add support for the "new" libavcodec vdpau support. This was recently added and replaces the "old" vdpau parts. (In fact, Libav is about to deprecate and remove the "old" API without deprecation grace period, so we have to support it now. Moreover, there will probably be no Libav release which supports both, so the transition is even less smooth than we could hope, and we have to support both the old and new API.) Whether the old or new API is used is checked by a configure test: if the new API is found, it is used, otherwise the old API is assumed. Some details might be handled differently. Especially display preemption is a bit problematic with the "new" libavcodec vdpau support: it wants to keep a pointer to a specific vdpau API function (which can be driver specific, because preemption might switch drivers). Also, surface IDs are now directly stored in AVFrames (and mp_images), so they can't be forced to VDP_INVALID_HANDLE on preemption. (This changes even with older libavcodec versions, because mp_image always uses the newer representation to make vo_vdpau.c simpler.) Decoder initialization in the new code tries to deal with codec profiles, while the old code always uses the highest profile per codec. Surface allocation changes. Since the decoder won't call config() in vo_vdpau.c on video size change anymore, we allow allocating surfaces of arbitrary size instead of locking it to what the VO was configured. The non-hwdec code also has slightly different allocation behavior now. Enabling the old vdpau special decoders via e.g. --vd=lavc:h264_vdpau doesn't work anymore (a warning suggesting the --hwdec option is printed instead).
