This is made by possible by 96e1f1dfa5 standardizing --gpu-context's
help output. This changes the check to complete any Object settings list
so it will automatically work with future options of this kind.
Debanding is an inherently destructive process. It is not needed for
most high-quality sources and only produces an adverse smoothing effect
when applied to fine-detailed content, removing detail. It should only
be applied when necessary, either manually with the `b` keybind or with
an automatic profile.
Additionally, it is quite computationally heavy with no real benefit for
high-quality content.
By default, and especially in the high-quality profile, mpv should
preserve source detail and quality as much as possible. Additional
processing should be opt-in.
There are good reasons to bind Ctrl+WHEEL_UP/WHEEL_DOWN to video-zoom:
- They are ubiquitous and familiar key bindings to represent zooming
operations, which are used in all popular web browsers, document viewers,
and document editors.
- Because WHEEL_UP/WHEEL_DOWN are scaled with high-resolution scrolling
input devices like touchpads, this allows smooth zooming.
- This makes "pinch to zoom" with touchpads and touchscreens work out of
box on Windows, since by default applications receive these key inputs
for pinch gesture.
- It had been considered to bind these keys to window-scale instead.
However, this results in horrible UX as the keybinds work only when the
mouse pointer is over the mpv window, and if the window shrinks during
this operation, the window below mpv now receives these keybinds,
resulting in unwanted zooming for that window, which violates the principle
of least surprise.
Deinterlacing required that the user set it on/off themselves, but we
actually have handy flags for detecting if a frame is interlaced. So
it's pretty simple to make an auto option using that. Unfortunately,
life is not quite that simple and there are known cases of false
positives from the ffmpeg flags so we can't make auto the default value.
However, it still may have some utility for some people, and the
detection could potentially be improved upon later. Closes#10358.
Peak detection greatly increases HDR experience. Performance hit of
non-delayed detection is not that significant and is in line with
current default settings.
Remove keybindings for properties that have been removed because they
can no longer be used even if you restore them.
Replace dvb-channel-name with dvbin-channel-switch-offset.
Fix the L keybinding: it was bound to cycle-values loop when loop was an
alias for loop-playlist, but now it's an alias for loop-file.
"osd" was a command that cycles osd-level from 0 to 3.
Keep only the newest I show-text "${filename}" from mpv 0.26, the mpv
0.5 line for it is a mistake because it was bound to that in input.conf
from a749c61437 (2012) until 2e84934be7 (2017), while mpv 0.5 is from
2014.
I removed the previous WHEEL_UP and WHEEL_DOWN bindings because they are
duplicate, and it appears that they were already bound to seek 10 before
7897f79217.
There was a discrepancy in what the keybind was advertised to do in the
manual, and what the comment in input.conf described it to be doing. It
makes very little sense to add a keybind that changes the default and
doesn't allow you to get back to the default. This keybind is much more
useful if it toggles between yes/force instead of no/force.
ac725764ec originally added these to
prevent those profiles from having auto as a value. However the auto
value was removed in 53d032374d later. So
having these lines here no longer serves any purpose since the default
value for slang is NULL once again (vlang/alang were never needed here).
The goal is to provide simple to understand quality/performance level
profiles for the users.
Instead of default and gpu-hq profile. There main profiles were added:
- fast: can run on any hardware
- default: balanced profile between quality and performance
- high-quality: out of the box high quality experience. Intended
mostly for dGPU.
Summary of three profiles, including default one:
[fast]
scale=bilinear
cscale=bilinear (implicit)
dscale=bilinear
dither=no
correct-downscaling=no
linear-downscaling=no
sigmoid-upscaling=no
hdr-compute-peak=no
[default] (implicit mpv defaults)
scale=lanczos
cscale=lanczos
dscale=mitchell
dither-depth=auto
correct-downscaling=yes
linear-downscaling=yes
sigmoid-upscaling=yes
hdr-compute-peak=yes
[high-quality] (inherits default options)
scale=ewa_lanczossharp
cscale=ewa_lanczossharp (implicit)
hdr-peak-percentile=99.995
hdr-contrast-recovery=0.30
allow-delayed-peak-detect=no
deband=yes
scaler-lut-size=8
We were over-enthusiastic when introducing --no-config into the
autocompletions. When autocompleting profiles, you actually need the
config, because that's where the profiles come from.
zsh is untested - I don't use it.
Prevents transient brightness spikes on scene transitions at the cost of
sometimes forcing an extra indirect pass (in particular, when
downscaling). But on GPUs powerful enough to run gpu-hq, the extra
indirect pass shouldn't matter too much. This option mostly exists for
weak iGPUs.
Wheel being seek by default is very unintuitive and surprising to a lot
of users. It seems to be one of the things most consistently complained
about in the default UI. I change this on all of my devices, and so do
many others.
It's trivial for users who like the old behavior to change it back.
The old name is pretty bad and users mistakenly think it has something
to do with selecting forced subtitles (that would be
--subs-fallback-forced). Instead of giving it such a generic name, make
it clearer that this has to do specifically with forced sub events
which is only relevant for a small minority of subtitles.
This is higher quality but comes with a slight performance hit,
especially for weaker iGPUs, so I don't want to enable it out of the box
even when --hdr-compute-peak=auto.
This only existed as essentially a workaround for meson's behavior and
to maintain compatibility with the waf build. Since waf put everything
in a generated subdirectory, we had to put make a subdirectory called
"generated" in the source for meson so stuff could go to the right
place. Well now we don't need to do that anymore. Move the meson.build
files around so they go in the appropriate place in the subdirectory of
the source tree and change the paths of the headers accordingly. A
couple of important things to note.
1. mpv.com now gets made in build/player/mpv.com (necessary because of
a meson limitation)
2. The macos icon generation path is shortened to
TOOLS/osxbundle/icon.icns.inc.
Reading the config when we're just interested in the option list
(not sure why mpv does that anyway) only has the potential to mess
this process up when it prints errors or the user has funny options
like msg-level or log-file set, so avoid doing so.
It has been odd that ctrl+h toggles `auto` for hwdecs even though we
always recommend people start with `auto-safe`, and `auto` will attempt
various hwdecs that can fail so badly we can't fall back to software
decoding.
With the change to more exhaustively attempt to use hwdecs, it is now
easier to get into situations where these fragile hwdecs will get
attempted in basic scenarios, like pressing ctrl+h.
So it is high time to default to `auto-safe`.
Treat them as http:// and https:// respectively. This allows to play files
on webdav archives directly on KDE, avoiding the (extremely slow) local
copying performed by kio.
This reverts commit 04f0b0abe4.
It's not a good idea to unify the names only for visibility, while
keeping secondary-* for everything else.
This needs a bit more thought before we allow secondary sub to be
visible on its own.
Adds --sub-visibility choices 'primary-only' for only displaying the
primary subtitle track, and 'secondary-only' for only displaying
secondary subtitle track.
Removes --secondary-sub-visibility and displays a message telling the
user to use --sub-visibility=yes/primary-only instead.
These changes make it so that the default 'sub-visibility' bind 'v'
cycles through all the 'sub-visibility' choices, 'no', 'yes',
'primary-only', and 'secondary-only'.
If bash_completion wasn't installed, _filedir wouldn't be defined which
led to all filename-based completions to error out. Specifically
autocompletion would fail when a filename was expected and when
bash_completion wasn't installed. Now we fall back to `compgen -f` if
_filedir fails. According to _filedir's comments, compgen doesn't
handle files with spaces well, but it is still better to complete most
files than none.
Without this entry, when starting mpv as a flatpak application on
elementaryOS, the Dock icon would get duplicated, as if the application
was detached from its launcher. This entry fixes that by allowing the
dock to associate the app's window with the desktop entry.
