DOCS: add a changelog for option/command/property changes All these make up both user interface and API. It's a good idea to actually keep track of changes to it.

mpv provides access to its internals via the following means:
DOCS: add a changelog for option/command/property changes All these make up both user interface and API. It's a good idea to actually keep track of changes to it.
2015-05-22 19:00:13 +02:00
- options
- commands
- properties
- events
All of these are important for interfacing both with end users and API users
(which include Lua scripts, libmpv, and the JSON IPC). As such, they constitute
a large part of the user interface and APIs.
This document lists changes to them. New changes are added to the top.
Interface changes
=================
::
options: deprecate --heartbeat-cmd It's useless. --heartbeat-interval is also considered deprecated, but this is not made explicit.
2016-06-29 18:10:15 +02:00
--- mpv 0.18.1 ---
- deprecate --heartbeat-cmd
audio: drop --softvol=no and --softvol=auto Drop the code for switching the volume options and properties between af_volume and AO volume controls. interface-changes.rst mentions the changes in detail. Do this because this was exceedingly complex and had other problems as well. It was also very hard to test. It's just not worth the trouble. Some leftovers like AOCONTROL_HAS_PER_APP_VOLUME will be removed at a later point. Fixes #3322.
2016-07-09 18:31:18 +02:00
- remove --softvol=no capability:
- deprecate --softvol, it now does nothing
manpage: minor fix Also fix some other type in interface-changes.rst.
2016-07-10 14:30:02 +02:00
- --volume, --mute, and the corresponding properties now always control
audio: drop --softvol=no and --softvol=auto Drop the code for switching the volume options and properties between af_volume and AO volume controls. interface-changes.rst mentions the changes in detail. Do this because this was exceedingly complex and had other problems as well. It was also very hard to test. It's just not worth the trouble. Some leftovers like AOCONTROL_HAS_PER_APP_VOLUME will be removed at a later point. Fixes #3322.
2016-07-09 18:31:18 +02:00
softvol, and behave as expected without surprises (e.g. you can set
them normally while no audio is initialized)
- rename --softvol-max to --volume-max (deprecated alias is added)
- the --volume-restore-data option and property are removed without
replacement. They were _always_ internal, and used for watch-later
resume/restore. Now --volume/--mute are saved directly instead.
- the previous point means resuming files with older watch-later configs
will print an error about missing --volume-restore-data (which you can
ignore), and will not restore the previous value
- as a consequence, volume controls will no longer control PulseAudio
per-application value, or use the system mixer's per-application
volume processing
- system or per-application volume can still be controlled with the
ao-volume and ao-mute properties (there are no command line options)
DOCS: change version references from 0.17.1 to 0.18.0 0.17.1 was never released, so the actual 0.18.0 release takes its place.
2016-06-25 12:39:08 +02:00
--- mpv 0.18.0 ---
command: if only ab-loop-b is set, loop from start of file Commit 382bafcb changed the behavior for ab-loop-a. This commit changes ab-loop-b so that the behavior is symmetric. Adjust the OSD rendering accordingly to the two changes. Also fix mentions of the "ab_loop" command to the now preferred "ab-loop".
2016-04-21 22:15:17 +02:00
- now ab-loops are active even if one of the "ab-loop-a"/"-b" properties is
unset ("no"), in which case the start of the file is used if the A loop
docs: fix some typos
2016-05-23 18:43:49 +02:00
point is unset, and the end of the file for an unset B loop point
sd_add: replace --sub-ass=no with --ass-style-override=strip --sub-ass=no / --ass=no still work, but --ass-style-override=strip is preferred now. With this change, --ass-style-override can control all the types of style overriding.
2016-04-30 14:25:23 +02:00
- deprecate --sub-ass=no option by --ass-style-override=strip
(also needs --embeddedfonts=no)
command: change some hwdec properties Introduce hwdec-current and hwdec-interop properties. Deprecate hwdec-detected, which never made a lot of sense, and which is replaced by the new properties. hwdec-active also becomes useless, as hwdec-current is a superset, so it's deprecated too (for now).
2016-05-04 16:55:26 +02:00
- add "hwdec-interop" and "hwdec-current" properties
- deprecated "hwdec-active" and "hwdec-detected" properties (to be removed
DOCS: change version references from 0.17.1 to 0.18.0 0.17.1 was never released, so the actual 0.18.0 release takes its place.
2016-06-25 12:39:08 +02:00
in mpv 0.20.0)
client API: access choices as flags if appropriate Options/properties that are choices, and which include "yes" or "no" values (or both) can now be read and written as MPV_FORMAT_FLAG. For write access, rejecting flags in these cases was obnoxiously unintuitive and inconvenient. For read access, the value of this is less convincing, and actually it's a major API change. At this point I probably have to admit that the finer details of the client API are very unstable.
2016-05-04 17:37:54 +02:00
- choice option/property values that are "yes" or "no" will now be returned
as booleans when using the mpv_node functions in the client API, the
"native" property accessors in Lua, and the JSON API. They can be set as
such as well.
vo_opengl: remove non-working rgb/rgba FBO formats Following commit 84ccebd9, the internal helpers don't allow GL_RGB and GL_RGBA as internal formats for FBO attachments anymore. While OpenGL itself is perfectly fine with it, I don't see much of a reason to bother, and mixing sized and unsized internal formats is confusing anyway. Just remove these formats.
2016-05-20 23:21:43 +02:00
- the VO opengl fbo-format sub-option does not accept "rgb" or "rgba"
anymore
vo_opengl: remove prescaling framework with superxbr prescaler Signed-off-by: wm4 <wm4@nowhere>
2016-06-10 14:35:09 +02:00
- all VO opengl prescalers have been removed (replaced by user scripts)
command: export more information under track-list Export a number of container fields, which may or may not be useful in some scenarios. They are explicitly marked as originating from the demuxer, in order to make it explicit that they might be unreliable. I'd actually like to remove all other cases where container information is exported, but those numerous cases are going to be somewhat hard to deprecate. Also, not directly related, export the description of the currently active decoder. (This has been requested before.)
2016-02-29 20:55:44 +01:00
--- mpv 0.17.0 ---
- deprecate "track-list/N/audio-channels" property (use
"track-list/N/demux-channel-count" instead)
command: change stream-pos semantics Changing the byte stream position without cooperation of the demuxer seems a bit insane, and is certainly useless. A user should do factor seeks instead. For formats like ts, this will actually translate to byte seeks, while treating the rest of the playback chain a bit more gracefully. With this argument, remove write access to this property. If someone really complains, proper byte seeks could be added as seek mode (although I'm going to need a convincing argument for this). Read access changes too, but in a more subtle way.
2016-03-09 23:34:04 +01:00
- remove write access to "stream-pos", and change semantics for read access
lua: don't suspend core by default during script execution This changes behavior somewhat. The old behavior can be restored by running "mp.use_suspend=true". It was originally introduced for the OSC, but I can't reproduce whatever misbehavior I was seeing. (See mp.suspend()/resume() for explanations what the suspend mechanism does.)
2016-03-18 22:03:04 +01:00
- Lua scripts now don't suspend mpv by default while script code is run
command: add cache-speed property Should reflect I/O speed. This could go into the terminal status line. But I'm not sure how to put it there, since it already uses too much space, so it's not there yet.
2016-03-20 19:48:55 +01:00
- add "cache-speed" property
DOCS/interface-changes: mention --input-ipc-server change
2016-03-24 19:24:40 +01:00
- rename --input-unix-socket to --input-ipc-server, and make it work on
Windows too
aspect: make video-zoom logarithmic The past behavior was a bit weird, especially when zooming out. There was no simple way to zoom in or out in consistent increments using keybindings alone. The new behavior preserves most of the old behavior's semantics but scales out to infinity better. It coincidentally also makes it really easy to get clean power of 2 ratios (e.g. 2x, 4x, 8x and their inverses). Fixes #3004.
2016-04-03 13:55:37 +02:00
- change the exact behavior of the "video-zoom" property
aspect: rework --video-unscaled In the past, --video-unscaled also disabled zooming and aspect ratio corrections. But this didn't make much sense in terms of being a useful option. The new behavior just sets the initial video size to be unscaled, but it's still affected by zoom commands and aspect ratio corrections. To get the old behavior back, --video-aspect=0 --video-zoom=0 need to be added as well (in the general case). Most of the time it should not make a difference though. Also, there seems to have been some additional dst_rect clamping code inside src_dst_split_scaling that didn't seem to either be necessary nor ever get triggered. (The code immediately above it already makes sure to crop the video if it's larger than the dst_rect) No idea why it was there, but I just removed it.
2016-04-10 17:26:32 +02:00
- --video-unscaled no longer disables --video-zoom and --video-aspect
To force the old behavior, set --video-zoom=0 and --video-aspect=0
audio: change --audio-channels default back to stereo Too many problems. Well, actually it's just Linux audio systems which cause problems, and exclusive audio access on other platforms. In any case, it seems you have to do some manual configuration if you want multichannel audio output.
2016-01-20 17:12:08 +01:00
--- mpv 0.16.0 ---
- change --audio-channels default to stereo (use --audio-channels=auto to
get the old default)
audio: change downmix behavior, add --audio-normalize-downmix This is probably the 3rd time the user-visible behavior changes. This time, switch back because not normalizing seems to be the more expected behavior from users.
2016-01-20 17:14:04 +01:00
- add --audio-normalize-downmix
- change the default downmix behavior (--audio-normalize-downmix=yes to get
the old default)
vo_opengl: rename custom shader entrypoint from sample to sample_pixel "sample" is a reserved identifier at least in GLES ES. Suggestions for a better name than "sample_pixel" are still welcome. Fixes #2733.
2016-01-25 20:24:41 +01:00
- VO opengl custom shaders must now use "sample_pixel" as function name,
instead of "sample"
vo_opengl: default scaler-resizes-only sub-option to yes Often requested. The main argument, that prominent scalers like sharpen change the image even if no scaling happens, disappeared anyway. ("sharpen", unsharp masking, is neither prominent nor a scaler anymore. This is an artifact from MPlayer, which fuses unsharp masking with bilinear scaling in order to make it single-pass, or so.)
2016-01-25 21:35:39 +01:00
- change VO opengl scaler-resizes-only default to enabled
vo_opengl: replace tscale-interpolates-only with interpolation-threshold The previous approach was too naive, and can e.g. ruin playback if scheduling switches e.g. between 1 and 2 vsync per frame.
2016-01-27 21:07:17 +01:00
- add VO opengl "interpolation-threshold" suboption (introduces new default
behavior, which can change e.g. ``--video-sync=display-vdrop`` to the
worse, but is usually what you want)
command: always allow setting volume/mute properties This seems generally easier when using libmpv (and was already requested and implemented before: see commit 327a779a; it was reverted some time later). With the weird internal logic we have to deal with, in particular the --softvol=no case (using system volume), and using the audio API's mixer (--softvol=auto on some systems), we still can't avoid all glitches and corner cases that complicate this issue so much. The API user is either recommended to use --softvol=yes or auto, or to watch the new mixer-active property, and assume the volume/mute properties have significant values if the mixer is active. Remaining glitches: - changing the volume/mute properties has no effect if no internal mixer is used (--softvol=no) and the mixer is not active; the actual mixer controls do not change, only the property values - --volume/--mute do not have an effect on the volume/mute properties before mixer initialization (the options strictly are only applied during mixer init) - volume-max is 100 while the mixer is not active
2016-01-26 15:12:42 +01:00
- make "volume" and "mute" properties changeable even if no audio output is
active (this gives not-ideal behavior if --softvol=no is used)
- add "volume-max" and "mixer-active" properties
input: ignore --input-cursor for events injected by input commands Apparently useful for window embedding. Fixes #2750.
2016-02-04 23:01:15 +01:00
- ignore --input-cursor option for events injected by input commands like
"mouse", "keydown", etc.
vf_yadif: change defaults This is for the sake of command.c and the "deinterlace" option/property. Instead of forcing certain "better" defaults when inserting yadif, change the actual "yadif" defaults. I pondered not changing vf_yadif, and instead adding a trivial "yadif- auto" wrapper filter, which would merely have different defaults. But thinking about it, it doesn't make any sense for "deinterlace" to have different defaults from vf_yadif, with vf_yadif having the "worse" defaults. If someone wants the old behavior, the old behavior can be forced in a backward and forward compatible way by setting the suboptions. Fixes #2539 (kind of).
2015-12-21 22:04:53 +01:00
--- mpv 0.15.0 ---
- change "yadif" video filter defaults
command: add vsync-ratio property This is very "illustrative", unlike the video-speed-correction property, and thus useful. It can also be used to observe scheduling errors, which are not detected by the core. (These happen due to rounding errors; possibly not evne our fault, but coming from files with rounded timestamps and so on.)
2015-11-13 22:48:32 +01:00
--- mpv 0.14.0 ---
DOCS/interface-changes: add some recent changes
2015-11-29 13:07:04 +01:00
- vo_opengl interpolation now requires --video-sync=display-... to be set
- change some vo_opengl defaults (including changing tscale)
- add "vsync-ratio", "estimated-display-fps" properties
player: handle rebasing start time differently Most of this is explained in the DOCS additions. This gives us slightly more sanity, because there is less interaction between the various parts. The goal is getting rid of the video_offset entirely. The simplification extends to the user API. In particular, we don't need to fix missing parts in the API, such as the lack for a seek command that seeks relatively to the start time. All these things are now transparent. (If someone really wants to know the real timestamps/start time, new properties would have to be added.)
2015-11-16 22:47:17 +01:00
- add --rebase-start-time option
This is a breaking change to start time handling. Instead of making start
time handling an aspect of different options and properties (like
"time-pos" vs. "playback-time"), make it dependent on the new option. For
compatibility, the "time-start" property now always returns 0, so code
which attempted to handle rebasing manually will not break.
vo_opengl_cb: make operation more similar to normal VOs vo_opengl_cb is a special case, because we somehow have to render video asynchronously, all while "trusting" the API user to do it correctly. This didn't quite work, and a while ago a compromise using a timeout to prevent theoretically possible deadlocks was added. Make it even more synchronous. Basically, go all the way, and synchronize rendering between VO and user renderer thread to the full extent possible. This means the silly frame queue is dropped, and we event attempt to synchronize the GL SwapBuffer call (via mpv_opengl_cb_report_flip()). The changes introduced with commit dc33eb56 are effectively dropped. I don't even remember if they mattered. In the future, we might make all VOs fetch asynchronously from a frame queue, which would mostly remove the differences between vo_opengl and vo_opengl_cb, but this will take a while (if it will even be done).
2015-11-09 20:49:30 +01:00
--- mpv 0.13.0 ---
- remove VO opengl-cb frame queue suboptions (no replacement)
vo_opengl: remove sharpen scalers, add sharpen sub-option This turns the old scalers (inherited from MPlayer) into a pre- processing step (after color conversion and before scaling). The code for the "sharpen5" scaler is reused for this. The main reason MPlayer implemented this as scalers was perhaps because FBOs were too expensive, and making it a scaler allowed to implement this in 1 pass. But unsharp masking is not really a scaler, and I would guess the result is more like combining bilinear scaling and unsharp masking.
2015-09-23 22:43:27 +02:00
--- mpv 0.12.0 ---
options: remove --use-text-osd
2015-10-24 19:09:35 +02:00
- remove --use-text-osd (useless; fontconfig isn't a requirement anymore,
and text rendering is also lazily initialized)
command: make time properties unavailable if timestamp is unknown Let's hope this doesn't confuse client API users too much. It's still the best solution to get rid of corner cases where it actually return the wrong timestamp on start, and then suddenly jump.
2015-10-16 16:16:10 +02:00
- some time properties (at least "playback-time", "time-pos",
"time-remaining", "playtime-remaining") now are unavailable if the time
is unknown, instead of just assuming that the internal playback position
is 0
audio: add option for falling back to ao_null The manpage entry explains this. (Maybe this option could be always enabled and removed. I don't quite remember what valid use-cases there are for just disabling audio entirely, other than that this is also needed for audio decoder init failure.)
2015-10-05 18:53:02 +02:00
- add --audio-fallback-to-null option
video: replace vf_format outputlevels option with global option The vf_format suboption is replaced with --video-output-levels (a global option and property). In particular, the parameter is removed from mp_image_params. The mechanism is moved to the "video equalizer", which also handles common video output customization like brightness and contrast controls. The new code is slightly cleaner, and the top-level option is slightly more user-friendly than as vf_format sub-option.
2015-09-29 21:12:26 +02:00
- replace vf_format outputlevels suboption with "video-output-levels" global
property/option; also remove "colormatrix-output-range" property
vo_opengl: remove sharpen scalers, add sharpen sub-option This turns the old scalers (inherited from MPlayer) into a pre- processing step (after color conversion and before scaling). The code for the "sharpen5" scaler is reused for this. The main reason MPlayer implemented this as scalers was perhaps because FBOs were too expensive, and making it a scaler allowed to implement this in 1 pass. But unsharp masking is not really a scaler, and I would guess the result is more like combining bilinear scaling and unsharp masking.
2015-09-23 22:43:27 +02:00
- vo_opengl: remove sharpen3/sharpen5 scale filters, add sharpen sub-option
af_lavfi: implement af-metadata property Works like vf-metadata. Unfortunately requires some code duplication (even though it's not much). Fixes #2311.
2015-09-11 23:04:02 +02:00
--- mpv 0.11.0 ---
- add "af-metadata" property
DOCS: cleanup API changes version markers Make it so that they don't need to be edited on release (no change in tense). Also, move the "stray" changes after client API version 1.19 to 1.19 itself.
2015-09-10 14:08:10 +02:00
--- mpv 0.10.0 ---
video: make container vs. bitstream aspect ratio configurable Utterly idiotic bullshit. Fixes #2259.
2015-08-30 23:01:46 +02:00
- add --video-aspect-method option
player: add --playlist-pos option Oddly often requested.
2015-08-22 22:08:17 +02:00
- add --playlist-pos option
player: add display sync mode If this mode is enabled, the player tries to strictly synchronize video to display refresh. It will adjust playback speed to match the display, so if you play 23.976 fps video on a 24 Hz screen, playback speed is increased by approximately 1/1000. Audio wll be resampled to keep up with playback. This is different from the default sync mode, which will sync video to audio, with the consequence that video might skip or repeat a frame once in a while to make video keep up with audio. This is still unpolished. There are some major problems as well; in particular, mkv VFR files won't work well. The reason is that Matroska is terrible and rounds timestamps to milliseconds. This makes it rather hard to guess the framerate of a section of video that is playing. We could probably fix this by just accepting jittery timestamps (instead of explicitly disabling the sync code in this case), but I'm not ready to accept such a solution yet. Another issue is that we are extremely reliant on OS video and audio APIs working in an expected manner, which of course is not too often the case. Consequently, the new sync mode is a bit fragile.
2015-08-10 18:43:25 +02:00
- add --video-sync* options
"display-sync-active" property
"vo-missed-frame-count" property
"audio-speed-correction" and "video-speed-correction" properties
demux: remove options to control minimum packet queue size Remove --demuxer-readahead-packets and --demuxer-readahead-bytes. These were a bit useless. They could force a minimum packet queue size, but controlling the queue size with --demuxer-readahead-secs is much nicer. It's fairly certain nobody ever used these options.
2015-08-05 23:38:23 +02:00
- remove --demuxer-readahead-packets and --demuxer-readahead-bytes
demux: add options to control maximum queue size Add --demuxer-max-packets and --demuxer-max-bytes, which control the maximum size of the packet queue. These can be helpful to avoid excessive memory usage. Memory usage is the reason why there's a limit in the first place. If a file is more or less broken, and audio and video don't line up, the decoders will fill up the packet queue trying to read more audio or video, and the maximum sizes are required to avoid unbounded memory allocation. Being able to override the maximum sizes is useful; either for restricting memory usage further, or enlarging the sizes when attempting to play various broken files.
2015-08-05 23:41:29 +02:00
add --demuxer-max-packets and --demuxer-max-bytes
(the new options are not replacement and have very different semantics)
DOCS: document video-aspect behavior change Forgotten in commit ae2f8fd0.
2015-08-05 21:29:09 +02:00
- change "video-aspect" property: always settable, even if no video is
running; always return the override - if no override is set, return
the video's aspect ratio
player: remove higher-level remains of DVD/BD menu support Nobody wanted to restore this, so it gets the boot. If anyone still wants to volunteer to restore menu support, this would be welcome. (I might even try it myself if I feel masochistic and like wasting a lot of time for nothing.) But if it does get restored, it should be done differently. There were many stupid things about how it was done. For example, it somehow tried to pull mp_nav_events through all the layers (including needing to "buffer" them in the demuxer), which was needlessly complicated. It could be done simpler. This code was already inactive, so this commit actually changes nothing. Also keep in mind that normal DVD/BD playback still works.
2015-08-03 23:33:03 +02:00
- remove disc-nav (DVD, BD) related properties and commands
command: add property indicating per-file options Fixes #2165, more or less.
2015-07-23 22:59:04 +02:00
- add "option-info/<name>/set-locally" property
cache: make backbuffer size configurable Allow setting an arbitrary amount, instead of the fixed 50%. This is nto striclty backwards compatible. The defaults don't change, but the --cache/--cache-default options now set the readahead portion. So in practice, users who configured this until now will see the double amount of cache being used, _plus_ the 75MB default backbuffer will be in use.
2015-07-22 23:38:45 +02:00
- add --cache-backbuffer; change --cache-default default to 75MB
the new total cache size is the sum of backbuffer and the cache size
specified by --cache-default or --cache
command: add track-list/N/audio-channels property Signed-off-by: wm4 <wm4@nowhere> (With some heavy modifications from the original patch.)
2015-07-03 02:33:54 +02:00
- add ``track-list/N/audio-channels`` property
screenshot: don't write PNG colorspace tags by default Generates too much discussion and confusion. Fixes #2051.
2015-07-18 18:33:54 +02:00
- change --screenshot-tag-colorspace default value
sub: add option for stretching image subtitles to screen Probably makes users happy who want bitmap subtitles to show up in the screen margins, and stops them from doing idiotic crap with vf_expand. Fixes #2098.
2015-07-18 14:36:17 +02:00
- add --stretch-image-subs-to-screen
player: parse and expose m3u playlist titles Requested. Closes #2100.
2015-07-10 21:22:35 +02:00
- add "playlist/N/title" property
video: add a way to disable automatic stereo conversion Fixes #2111.
2015-07-10 18:04:34 +02:00
- add --video-stereo-mode=no to disable auto-conversions
player: disable seeking even if the cache is enabled Until now, if a stream wasn't seekable, but the stream cache was enabled (--cache), we've enabled seeking anyway. The idea was that at least short seeks would typically fall within the cache. And if not, the user was out of luck and terrible things happened. In other words, it was unreliable. Be stricter about it and remove this behavior. Effectively, this will for example disable seeking in piped data. Instead of trying to be clever, add an --force-seekable option, which will always enable seeking if the user really wants it.
2015-07-08 22:04:35 +02:00
- add --force-seekable, and change default seekability in some cases
vf_vdpaupp: don't attempt to deinterlace progressive frames
2015-07-08 15:14:38 +02:00
- add vf yadif/vavpp/vdpaupp interlaced-only suboptions
Also, the option is enabled by default (Except vf_yadif, which has
it enabled only if it's inserted by the deinterlace property.)
vo_opengl_cb, vo_opengl: add option for preloading hwdec context See manpage additions. This is mainly useful for vo_opengl_cb, but can also be applied to vo_opengl. On a side note, gl_hwdec_load_api() should stop using a name string, and instead always use the IDs. This should be cleaned up another time.
2015-07-07 14:53:58 +02:00
- add --hwdec-preload
ao_coreaudio: add exclusive suboption
2015-07-03 19:21:22 +02:00
- add ao coreaudio exclusive suboption
DOCS: fix recent typos Pointed out by a certain wiiaboo.
2015-06-28 13:23:16 +02:00
- add ``track-list/N/forced`` property
audio: output human-readable channel layouts too This gets you the "logical" channel layout, instead of the exact thing we're sending to the AO. (Tired of the cryptic shit ALSA gives me.)
2015-06-25 19:10:24 +02:00
- add audio-params/channel-count and ``audio-params-out/channel-count props.
DOCS: document some recent interface additions
2015-06-24 14:40:03 +02:00
- add af volume replaygain-fallback suboption
- add video-params/stereo-in property
command: add keypress, keydown, and keyup commands. These commands are used to simulate keypresses using the key names from input.conf.
2015-06-11 01:56:56 +02:00
- add "keypress", "keydown", and "keyup" commands
audio: add --audio-spdif as new method for enabling passthrough This provides a new method for enabling spdif passthrough. The old method via --ad (--ad=spdif:ac3 etc.) is deprecated. The deprecated method will probably stop working at some point. This also supports PCM fallback. One caveat is that it will lose at least 1 audio packet in doing so. (I don't care enough to prevent this.) (This is named after the old S/PDIF connector, because it uses the same underlying technology as far as the higher level protoco is concerned. Also, the user should be renamed that passthrough is backwards.)
2015-06-05 22:35:43 +02:00
- deprecate --ad-spdif-dtshd and enabling passthrough via --ad
add --audio-spdif as replacement
command: remove deprecated get_property command This command has been deprecated in the 0.8.x and 0.9.x releases - get rid of it. Its only point ever was MPlayer compatibility, which broke years ago anyway.
2015-05-27 18:08:02 +02:00
- remove "get_property" command
options: remove --slave-broken It has been deprecated for ages.
2015-05-27 18:01:26 +02:00
- remove --slave-broken
DOCS: interface-changes: mention recent vo_opengl additions
2015-05-27 11:28:21 +02:00
- add vo opengl custom shader suboptions (source-shader, scale-shader,
pre-shaders, post-shaders)
command: change the hwdec properties Another very minor step towards property/option unification. Not bothering with interface compatibility here.
2015-05-25 21:44:48 +02:00
- completely change how the hwdec properties work:
- "hwdec" now reflects the --hwdec option
- "hwdec-detected" does partially what the old "hwdec" property did
(and also, "detected-hwdec" is removed)
- "hwdec-active" is added
command: add protocol-list property Fixes #1972.
2015-05-23 15:26:55 +02:00
- add protocol-list property
command: deprecate audio-samplerate Also replace their implementation with the recently introduced properties. One significant difference is that audio-channels using OSD formatting does not print the channel layout. The user can just use the replacement property instead.
2015-05-22 20:28:20 +02:00
- deprecate audio-samplerate and audio-channels properties
(audio-params sub-properties are the replacement)
command: add audio-params and audio-out-params properties
2015-05-22 20:23:47 +02:00
- add audio-params and audio-out-params properties
command: rename audio-format property Clashes with the option.
2015-05-22 20:05:04 +02:00
- deprecate "audio-format" property, replaced with "audio-codec-name"
options: rename --media-title option Conflicts with the property.
2015-05-22 20:03:14 +02:00
- deprecate --media-title, replaced with --force-media-title
command: deprecate the "length" property It collides with the --length option.
2015-05-22 20:02:47 +02:00
- deprecate "length" property, replaced with "duration"
DOCS: add a changelog for option/command/property changes All these make up both user interface and API. It's a good idea to actually keep track of changes to it.
2015-05-22 19:00:13 +02:00
- change volume property:
- the value 100 is now always "unchanged volume" - with softvol, the
range is 0 to --softvol-max, without it is 0-100
- the minimum value of --softvol-max is raised to 100
- remove vo opengl npot suboption
- add relative seeking by percentage to "seek" command
- add playlist_shuffle command
- add --force-window=immediate
- add ao coreaudio change-physical-format suboption
- remove vo opengl icc-cache suboption, add icc-cache-dir suboption
- add --screenshot-directory
- add --screenshot-high-bit-depth
- add --screenshot-jpeg-source-chroma
- default action for "rescan_external_files" command changes
DOCS: cleanup API changes version markers Make it so that they don't need to be edited on release (no change in tense). Also, move the "stray" changes after client API version 1.19 to 1.19 itself.
