* manpage: lua: clarify OSD differences between mp.command/mp.commandvGravatar wm42015-05-16
| | | | | | Conflicts: player/audio.c player/video.c
* video: add hevc to whitelist of hwdec codecsGravatar wm42015-05-14
| | | | | This means if --hwdec is used, and hardware decoding is supported for HEVC, it's actually used.
* vo_opengl: change user options for requesting GLESGravatar wm42015-05-14
| | | | | | | | Instead of having separate backends, make use of GLES a flag. This reduces the number of backends and the resulting annoyances. Also, nobody cares about using GLES, so there's no backward compatibility either.
* manpage: explain some property expansion restrictionsGravatar wm42015-05-13

* manpage: remove stray newlineGravatar wm42015-05-13

* vo_opengl_cb: add a "block" framedrop mode and make it defaultGravatar wm42015-05-12
| | | | | | | | | (I have no idea why there are different modes.) Instead of risking to drop frames too early, give it some margin. Since there are situations this could deadlock, wait with a timeout. This can happen if e.g. the API user is refusing to render anything, or if uninitialization is happening.
* Always block SIGPIPE globallyGravatar wm42015-05-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OpenSSL and GnuTLS are still causing this problem (although FFmpeg could be blamed as well - but not really). In particular, it was happening to libmpv users and in cases the pseudo-gui profile is used. This was because all signal handling is in the terminal code, so if terminal is disabled, it won't be set. This was obviously a questionable shortcut. Avoid further problems by always blocking the signal. This is done even for libmpv, despite our policy of not messing with global state. Explicitly document this in the libmpv docs. It turns out that a version bump to 1.17 was forgotten for the addition of MPV_FORMAT_BYTE_ARRAY, so document that change as part of 1.16.
* DOCS/man/options.rst: Remove trailing whitespacesGravatar rrooij2015-05-10
|
* DOCS/man/opions.rst: Elaborate on --no-videoGravatar rrooij2015-05-10
| | | | | When --no-video is set, the ytdl-format is set to "bestaudio/best". This wasn't documented in the man page yet.
* player: add --force-window=immediate modeGravatar wm42015-05-08
| | | | | | | This creates the window before the first file is loaded. This was requested a bunch of times, but on the other hand a change to make this behavior the default was reverted some time ago, because other users hated it.
* DOCS: add a link to LIRC wiki entryGravatar wm42015-05-07
|
* manpage: do not use deprecated syntax in exampleGravatar wm42015-05-06
|
* vo_opengl: change default FBO formatGravatar wm42015-05-05
| | | | | | | | Reduces (but likely does not remove) the danger of rounding intermediate values down to 8 bit. This is important for cscale, or any other processing that might store raw YUV values in framebuffers. Fixes #1918.
* manpage: fix typoGravatar wm42015-05-05
|
* ao_coreaudio: add an option for changing the physical formatGravatar wm42015-05-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | ao_coreaudio uses AudioUnit - the OSX software mixer. In theory, it supports multichannel audio just fine. But in practice, this might be disabled by default, and the user is supposed to select a multichannel base format in the "Audio MIDI Setup" utility. This option attempts to change this setting automatically. Some possible disadvantages and caveats are listed in the manpage additions. It is off by default, since changing this might be rather bad behavior for a normal application.
* path: start special espansion with ~~name instead of ~nameGravatar wm42015-05-03
| | | | | | | Since commit 7381db60, strings like "~desktop/" were expanded as platform-specific paths by mpv. Apparently this similarity to standard Unix shell expansion caused confusion, so change it to "~~desktop/". The shell doesn't expand this, so it should be better.
* options: remove --leak-reportGravatar wm42015-05-02
| | | | Use the environment variable instead.
* screenshots: create screenshot dirGravatar wm42015-05-02
| | | | Minor user convenience.
* manpage: fix typoGravatar wm42015-05-01

* vo_opengl: gl_lcms: replace icc-cache by icc-cache-dirGravatar Niklas Haas2015-05-01
| | | | | | | | | | This now stores caches for multiple ICC profiles, potentially all the user has ever used. The big use case for this is for users with multiple monitors. The old logic would mandate recomputing the LUT and discarding the cache whenever dragging mpv from one screen to another. This also avoids having to save and check the ICC profile itself, since the file name already uniquely determines it.
* screenshots: change default directory in pseudo-gui mode to desktopGravatar wm42015-05-01
| | | | | | | | This should take care of the endless complaints about the default location for screenshots (and will of course create new ones). If the screenshot-template is set to an absolute path, the directory won't be used. So this should be reasonably compatible.
* screenshots: prefix default template with "mpv-"Gravatar wm42015-05-01
| | | | | | So that the user realizes where they come from, or can find them at all. This was a common complaint, and this is the most lazy solution. Better suggestions for a default template are welcome.
* path: add resolving desktop path to platform-specific pathsGravatar wm42015-05-01
| | | | | | | | | win32 has a special function for this. I'm not sure about OSX - it seems ~/Desktop can be hardcoded, and the OSX GUI actually localizes the _displayed_ path in its UI. For Unix, there is not much to be done, or is there.
* path: expose platform-specific path resolversGravatar wm42015-05-01
|
* screenshots: add --screenshot-directory optionGravatar wm42015-05-01
| | | | | The plan is to use this to change the screenshot default location in pseudo-gui mode.
* screenshots: add option to prevent 16 bit outputGravatar wm42015-04-29
| | | | That's what it's usually about (again).
* screenshots: add option to disable JPEG 4:4:4 outputGravatar wm42015-04-29
| | | | That's what it's usually about.
* manpage: put explicit links to config file path detailsGravatar wm42015-04-28
| | | | | It seems users still have trouble finding the exact paths, especially on Windows. Maybe this helps.
* command: change the default action for rescan_external_filesGravatar wm42015-04-28
| | | | | | | | Now the rescan_external_files command will by default reselect the audio and subtitle streams. This should be more intuitive. Client API users and Lua scripts might break, but can be fixed in a backward-compatible way by setting the mode explicitly.
* input.conf: map L to toggle infinite loopingGravatar wm42015-04-27
|
* ao_null: add an option for testing channel layout selectionGravatar wm42015-04-27
|
* manpage: update mpv IRC channelsGravatar Niklas Haas2015-04-27
| | | | | Moved to #mpv and #mpv-devel, respectively. Travis details were also updated.
* manpage: update colormatrix property descriptionGravatar wm42015-04-27
|
* DOCS/client-api-changes: fix release markerGravatar wm42015-04-25
| | | | | The release was pushed back and now actually happened; the marker became incorrect.
* manpage: move --autosync descriptionGravatar wm42015-04-24
| | | | | | This was in the "Window" section. It has absolutely nothing to do with windows. Move it to the "Miscellaneous" section instead. The "--mc" option, which has a similar function, was already there.
* player: add --window-scale optionGravatar wm42015-04-24
| | | | Requested. Works similar to the property with the same name.
* man: fix PDF buildGravatar Martin Herkt2015-04-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The build failed because rst2pdf apparently has problems with page breaks. In this case, the link to the ALSA upmix guide was causing a page break in an admonition block. My guess is that rst2pdf screws up when it can’t fill at least one line of text following a page break, so I worked around this by making that paragraph a little longer. Seems to do the trick. I also shortened the URL using GitHub’s service because it was causing some rather unsightly formatting in the manpage output. Maybe we should just build HTML instead of a PDF.
* DOCS/mplayer-changes: Eleborate on joystick inputGravatar robin007bond2015-04-23
| | | | | | | | | | Since joystick support was removed and is a difference from mplayer, it should be included in the document with the mplayer changes. It will help new users who were using mplayer's joystick support to seek alternatives when switching to mpv. It will also be helpful for people that had problems with the joystick support in mplayer (for example, by incorrectly recognizing other input devices as joystick) to know that those problems won't persist in mpv.
* manpage: document ff-index sub-propertyGravatar wm42015-04-23

* demux_mkv: limit timestamp fixing to 1ms maxGravatar wm42015-04-23
| | | | | And also fix the description. It didn't actually reflect what the code did.
* demux_mkv: attempt to fix rounded timestampsGravatar wm42015-04-23
| | | | | There is some potential for breakage. If it happens, this might have to be disabled by default.
* lua: add utils.format_json() functionGravatar wm42015-04-22
| | | | Requested. Why not.
* command: demuxer-cache-time propertyGravatar xylosper2015-04-21
| | | | | | | | Approximate time of video buffered in the demuxer, in seconds. Same as `demuxer-cache-duration` but returns the last timestamp of bufferred data in demuxer. Signed-off-by: wm4 <wm4@nowhere>
* client API: add a screenshot_raw commandGravatar wm42015-04-20
| | | | | | | | | Requested. The wild code for setting up the mpv_node probably deserves to be cleaned up later. Fixes #1800.
* client API: add MPV_FORMAT_BYTE_ARRAY typeGravatar wm42015-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | This will be used in the following commit, which adds screenshot_raw. The reasoning is that this will be better for binding scripting languages. One could special-case the screenshot_raw commit and define fixed semantics for passing through a pointer using the current API, like formatting a pointer as string. But that would be ridiculous and unclean.
* player: change video-bitrate and audio-bitrate propertiesGravatar wm42015-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove the old implementation for these properties. It was never very good, often returned very innaccurate values or just 0, and was static even if the source was variable bitrate. Replace it with the implementation of "packet-video-bitrate". Mark the "packet-..." properties as deprecated. (The effective difference is different formatting, and returning the raw value in bits instead of kilobits.) Also extend the documentation a little. It appears at least some decoders (sipr?) need the AVCodecContext.bit_rate field set, so this one is still passed through.
* command: disc-mouse-on-button propertyGravatar xylosper2015-04-21
| | | | | This property indicates whether mouse cursor is located on button or not for disc naviation.
* manpage: fix typoGravatar wm42015-04-19
|
* options: change [...] to balanced quotesGravatar wm42015-04-19
| | | | | | | | Useful for dealing with libavfilter's terrible graph syntax. Not strictly backwards compatible (for example "[a[b]" fails now - the "[" within the quote is interpreted now). But hopefully it's obscure enough not to warrant any kind of compatibility hacks.
* demuxer_lavf: add an option for disabling hacksGravatar wm42015-04-17
