This covers source files which were added in mplayer2 and mpv times
only, and where all code is covered by LGPL relicensing agreements.
There are probably more files to which this applies, but I'm being
conservative here.
A file named ao_sdl.c exists in MPlayer too, but the mpv one is a
complete rewrite, and was added some time after the original ao_sdl.c
was removed. The same applies to vo_sdl.c, for which the SDL2 API is
radically different in addition (MPlayer supports SDL 1.2 only).
common.c contains only code written by me. But common.h is a strange
case: although it originally was named mp_common.h and exists in MPlayer
too, by now it contains only definitions written by uau and me. The
exceptions are the CONTROL_ defines - thus not changing the license of
common.h yet.
codec_tags.c contained once large tables generated from MPlayer's
codecs.conf, but all of these tables were removed.
From demux_playlist.c I'm removing a code fragment from someone who was
not asked; this probably could be done later (see commit 15dccc37).
misc.c is a bit complicated to reason about (it was split off mplayer.c
and thus contains random functions out of this file), but actually all
functions have been added post-MPlayer. Except get_relative_time(),
which was written by uau, but looks similar to 3 different versions of
something similar in each of the Unix/win32/OSX timer source files. I'm
not sure what that means in regards to copyright, so I've just moved it
into another still-GPL source file for now.
screenshot.c once had some minor parts of MPlayer's vf_screenshot.c, but
they're all gone.
MPlayer traditionally always used the display aspect ratio, e.g. 16:9,
while FFmpeg uses the sample (aka pixel) aspect ratio.
Both have a bunch of advantages and disadvantages. Actually, it seems
using sample aspect ratio is generally nicer. The main reason for the
change is making mpv closer to how FFmpeg works in order to make life
easier. It's also nice that everything uses integer fractions instead
of floats now (except --video-aspect option/property).
Note that there is at least 1 user-visible change: vf_dsize now does
not set the display size, only the display aspect ratio. This is
because the image_params d_w/d_h fields did not just set the display
aspect, but also the size (except in encoding mode).
This was required by vf_pp, which was just removed.
vf_dlopen has this stuff in its API. This API is considered stable, so
the related fields are not removed from it. But the fields are always 0
now, so there's no point in keeping the example program around.
vf_pullup.c did some extremely awkward passthrough of this information,
but didn't actually use it.
Until now, failure to allocate image data resulted in a crash (i.e.
abort() was called). This was intentional, because it's pretty silly to
degrade playback, and in almost all situations, the OOM will probably
kill you anyway. (And then there's the standard Linux overcommit
behavior, which also will kill you at some point.)
But I changed my opinion, so here we go. This change does not affect
_all_ memory allocations, just image data. Now in most failure cases,
the output will just be skipped. For video filters, this coincidentally
means that failure is treated as EOF (because the playback core assumes
EOF if nothing comes out of the video filter chain). In other
situations, output might be in some way degraded, like skipping frames,
not scaling OSD, and such.
Functions whose return values changed semantics:
mp_image_alloc
mp_image_new_copy
mp_image_new_ref
mp_image_make_writeable
mp_image_setrefp
mp_image_to_av_frame_and_unref
mp_image_from_av_frame
mp_image_new_external_ref
mp_image_new_custom_ref
mp_image_pool_make_writeable
mp_image_pool_get
mp_image_pool_new_copy
mp_vdpau_mixed_frame_create
vf_alloc_out_image
vf_make_out_image_writeable
glGetWindowScreenshot
These suffixes are annoying when they're redundant, so strip them
automatically. On little endian machines, always strip the "le" suffix,
and on big endian machines vice versa (although I don't think anyone
ever tried to run mpv on a big endian machine).
Since pixel format strings are returned by a certain function and we
can't just change static strings, use a trick to pass a stack buffer
transparently. But this also means the string can't be permanently
stored by the caller, so vf_dlopen.c has to be updated. There seems
to be no other case where this is done, though.
Or in other words, add support for properly draining remaining frames
from video filters. vf_yadif is buffering at least one frame, and the
buffered frame was not retrieved on EOF.
For most filters, ignore this for now, and just adjust them to the
changed semantics of filter_ext. But for vf_lavfi (used by vf_yadif),
real support is implemented. libavfilter handles this simply by passing
a NULL frame to av_buffersrc_add_frame(), so we just have to make
mp_to_av() handle NULL arguments.
In load_next_vo_frame(), we first try to output a frame buffered in the
VO, then the filter, and then (if EOF is reached and there's still no
new frame) the VO again, with draining enabled. I guess this was
implemented slightly incorrectly before, because the filter chain still
could have had remaining output frames.
Since m_option.h and options.h are extremely often included, a lot of
files have to be changed.
Moving path.c/h to options/ is a bit questionable, but since this is
mainly about access to config files (which are also handled in
options/), it's probably ok.
All filters now either use the generic option parser, or don't have
options. This finally finishes a transition started in 2003 (see git
commit 33b62af947).
Why are MPlayer devs so monumentally lazy? Sorry, but this takes the
cake. You had 10 years.
For some reason, both m_config and m_struct are somewhat similar, except
that m_config is much more powerful. m_config is used for VOs and some
other things, so to unify them. We plan to kick out m_struct and use
m_config for everything. (Unfortunately, m_config is also a bit more
bloated, so this commit isn't all that great, but it will allow to
reduce the option parser mess somewhat.)
This commit also switches all video filters to use the option macros.
One reason is that m_struct and m_config, even though they both use
m_option, store the offsets of the option fields differently (sigh...),
meaning the options defined for either are incompatible. It's easier to
switch everything in one go.
This commit will allow using the -vf option parser for other things,
like VOs and AOs.
According to DOCS/OUTDATED-tech/colorspaces.txt, the following formats
are supposed to be palettized:
IMGFMT_BGR8
IMGFMT_RGB8,
IMGFMT_BGR4_CHAR
IMGFMT_RGB4_CHAR
IMGFMT_BGR4
IMGFMT_RGB4
Of these, only BGR8 and RGB8 are actually treated as palettized in some
way. ffmpeg has only one palettized format (AV_PIX_FMT_PAL8), and
IMGFMT_BGR8 was inconsistently mapped to packed non-palettized RGB
formats too (AV_PIX_FMT_BGR8). Moreover, vf_scale.c contained messy
hacks to generate a palette when AV_PIX_FMT_BGR8 is output. (libswscale
does not support AV_PIX_FMT_PAL8 output in the first place.)
Get rid of all of this, and introduce IMGFMT_PAL8, which directly maps
to AV_PIX_FMT_PAL8. Remove the palette creation code from vf_scale.c.
IMGFMT_BGR8 maps to AV_PIX_FMT_RGB8 (don't ask me why it's swapped),
without any palette use. Enabling it in vo_x11 or using it as vf_scale
input seems to give correct results.
Remove mp_image.width/height. The w/h members are the ones to use.
width/height were used internally by vf_get_image(), and sometimes for
other purposes.
Remove some image flags, most of which are now useless or completely
unused. This includes VFCAP_ACCEPT_STRIDE: the vf_expand insertion in
vf.c does nothing.
Remove some other unused mp_image fields.
Some rather messy changes in vo_opengl[_old] to get rid of legacy
mp_image flags and fields. This is left from when vo_gl supported DR.
Change the entire filter API to use reference counted images instead
of vf_get_image().
Remove filter "direct rendering". This was useful for vf_expand and (in
rare cases) vf_sub: DR allowed these filters to pass a cropped image to
the filters before them. Then, on filtering, the image was "uncropped",
so that black bars could be added around the image without copying. This
means that in some cases, vf_expand will be slower (-vf gradfun,expand
for example).
Note that another form of DR used for in-place filters has been replaced
by simpler logic. Instead of trying to do DR, filters can check if the
image is writeable (with mp_image_is_writeable()), and do true in-place
if that's the case. This affects filters like vf_gradfun and vf_sub.
Everything has to support strides now. If something doesn't, making a
copy of the image data is required.
Finish renaming directories and moving files. Adjust all include
statements to make the previous commit compile.
The two commits are separate, because git is bad at tracking renames
and content changes at the same time.
Also take this as an opportunity to remove the separation between
"common" and "mplayer" sources in the Makefile. ("common" used to be
shared between mplayer and mencoder.)
Tis drops the silly lib prefixes, and attempts to organize the tree in
a more logical way. Make the top-level directory less cluttered as
well.
Renames the following directories:
libaf -> audio/filter
libao2 -> audio/out
libvo -> video/out
libmpdemux -> demux
Split libmpcodecs:
vf* -> video/filter
vd*, dec_video.* -> video/decode
mp_image*, img_format*, ... -> video/
ad*, dec_audio.* -> audio/decode
libaf/format.* is moved to audio/ - this is similar to how mp_image.*
is located in video/.
Move most top-level .c/.h files to core. (talloc.c/.h is left on top-
level, because it's external.) Park some of the more annoying files
in compat/. Some of these are relicts from the time mplayer used
ffmpeg internals.
sub/ is not split, because it's too much of a mess (subtitle code is
mixed with OSD display and rendering).
Maybe the organization of core is not ideal: it mixes playback core
(like mplayer.c) and utility helpers (like bstr.c/h). Should the need
arise, the playback core will be moved somewhere else, while core
contains all helper and common code.
