From 58d196c07e4faae0e9e7c03c64029c5c36e03c9a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: wm4 Date: Tue, 11 Dec 2012 18:16:42 +0100 Subject: video: different way to enable hardware decoding, add software fallback Deprecate the hardware specific video codec entries (like ffh264vdpau). Replace them with the --hwdec switch, which requests that a specific hardware decoding API should be used. The codecs.conf entries will be removed at a later time, but for now they are useful for testing and compatibility. Instead of --vc=ffh264vdpau, --hwdec=vdpau should be used. Add a fallback if hardware decoding fails. Most hardware decoders (including vdpau) support only a subset of h264, and having such a fallback is supposed to enable a better user experience. --- core/cfg-mplayer.h | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) (limited to 'core/cfg-mplayer.h') diff --git a/core/cfg-mplayer.h b/core/cfg-mplayer.h index 8ddf4616a0..9627a25140 100644 --- a/core/cfg-mplayer.h +++ b/core/cfg-mplayer.h @@ -467,6 +467,12 @@ const m_option_t common_opts[] = { {"ac", &audio_codec_list, CONF_TYPE_STRING_LIST, 0, 0, 0, NULL}, {"vc", &video_codec_list, CONF_TYPE_STRING_LIST, 0, 0, 0, NULL}, + OPT_CHOICE("hwdec", hwdec_api, 0, + ({"no", 0}, + {"vdpau", 1}, + {"vda", 2}, + {"crystalhd", 3})), + // postprocessing: {"pp", &divx_quality, CONF_TYPE_INT, 0, 0, 0, NULL}, #ifdef CONFIG_LIBPOSTPROC -- cgit v1.2.3
