This should get rid of some flickering. Since this actually skips all
the wacky fullscreening code on startup, this might lead to certain
wacky features to stop working. In this case, you'll have to use the
--x11-fstype option, and disable _NETWM_STATE_FULLSCREEN usage.
vo_x11_map_window() was attempting to clear the window on map. However,
it did so immediately after the map request. It probably assumed that
the drawing calls for clearing the window would be queued along with the
map request, and then executed in the right order. However, this
assumption was wrong - the map request first has to go to the window
manager (I guess?), so a lot of things happen before the window is even
mapped.
Fix this by moving the call to the MapNotify message handler, when the
window (apparently) becomes really visible.
I also tried to set CWBackPixel to black instead, but this seemed to
result in flickering on manual resizing.
This blocks everything, until the window is actually reported as mapped.
This fixes the race condition between VO initialization and mapping the
window, which resulted in possibly different window sizes, leading to an
immediate redraw, visible as flashing.
Note that if the map event never comes for some reason, we're out of
luck and will block forever.
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.
Until recently, the VO was an unavoidable part of the seeking code path.
This was because vdpau deinterlacing could double the framerate, and hr-
seek and framestepping etc. all had to "see" the additional frames. But
we've removed the frame doubling from the vdpau VO and moved it into a
video filter (vf_vdpaupp), and there's no reason left why the VO should
participate in seeking.
Instead of queuing frames to the VO during seek and skipping them
afterwards, drop the frames early.
This actually might make seeking with vo_vdpau and software decoding
faster, although I haven't measured it.
It doesn't look like vo_wayland_config() necessarily sets this flag, so
it seems safer to trigger an explicit resize. This accounts for the case
when playing a new file with different size than the one before.
Currently, vo_reconfig() calculates the requested window size and sets
the vo->dwidth/dheight fields _if_ VOCTRL_UPDATE_SCREENINFO is
implemented by the VO or the windowing backend. The window size can be
different from the display size if e.g. the --geometry option is used.
It will also set the vo->dx/dy fields and read vo->xinerama_x/y.
It turned out that this is very backwards and actually requires the
windowing backends to workaround these things. There's also
MPOpts.screenwidth/screenheight, which used to map to actual options,
but is now used only to communicate the screen size to the vo.c code
calculating the window size and position.
Change this by making the window geometry calculations available as
separate functions. This commit doesn't change any VO code yet, and just
emulates the old way using the new functions. VO code will remove its
usage of VOCTRL_UPDATE_SCREENINFO and use the new functions directly.
Commit 433161 actually broke vo_opengl (and maybe others), because
config_ok is not necessarily set correctly yet _during_ reconfig. So a
vo_get_src_dst_rects() call during reconfig did nothing.
When the VO was not initialized with vo_reconfig(), or if the last
vo_reconfig() failed, changing panscan would cause a crash due to
vo_get_src_dst_rects() dereferencing vo->params (NULL if not
configured).
Just do nothing if that happens, as there is no video that could be
displayed anyway.
Doesn't really seem to be much of use. Get rid of the remaining uses of
it.
Concerning vo_opengl_old, it seems uninitGl() works fine even if called
before initialization.
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.)
Change how the video decoding loop works. The structure should now be a
bit easier to follow. The interactions on format changes are (probably)
simpler. This also aligns the decoding loop with future planned changes,
such as moving various things to separate threads.
Remove the special casing of vo_vdpau vs. other VOs. Replace the
complicated interaction between vo.c and vo_vdpau.c with a simple queue
in vo.c. VOs other than vdpau are handled by setting the length of the
queue to 1 (this is essentially what waiting_mpi was).
Note that vo_vdpau.c seems to have buffered only 1 or 2 frames into the
future, while the remaining 3 or 4 frames were past frames. So the new
code buffers 2 frames (vo_vdpau.c requests this queue length by setting
vo->max_video_queue to 2). It should probably be investigated why
vo_vdpau.c kept so many past frames.
The field vo->redrawing is removed. I'm not really sure what that would
be needed for; it seems pointless.
Future directions include making the interface between playloop and VO
simpler, as well as making rendering a frame a single operation, as
opposed to the weird 3-step sequence of rendering, drawing OSD, and
flipping.
The previous commits changed vo_vdpau so that these options are set by
vf_vdpaupp, and the corresponding vo_vdpau were ignored. But for
compatibility, keep the "old" options working.
The value of this is questionable - maybe the vo_vdpau options should
just be removed. For now, at least demonstrate that it's possible.
The "deint" suboption still doesn't work, because the framerate doubling
logic required for some deint modes was moved to vf_vdpaupp. This
requires more elaborate workarounds.
This is slightly incomplete: the mixer options, such as sharpen and
especially deinterlacing, are ignored. This also breaks automatic
enabling of interlacing with 'D' or --deinterlace. These issues will be
fixed later in the following commits.
Note that we keep all the custom vdpau queue stuff. This will also be
simplified later.
This uses mp_vdpau_mixer_render(). The benefit is that it makes vdpau
deinterlacing just work. One additional minor advantage is that the
video mixer creation code is factored out (although that is a double-
edged sword).
In theory, returning the screenshot with original pixel aspect would
allow avoiding scaling them with image formats that support non-square
pixels, but in practice this isn't used anyway (nothing seems to
understand e.g. jpeg aspect ratio tags).
This extracts the scheduling logic to a single function which is nicer to keep
it consistent.
Additionally make sure we don't schedule sync operations from a sync operation
itself since that could cause deadlocks (even if it should not be happening
with the current code).
Previously the window could be made to completly exit the screen with a
combination or moving it close to an edge and halving it's size (via cmd+0).
This commit address the problem in the most simple way possibile by
constraining the window to the closest edge in these edge cases.
