* options: add --http-proxyGravatar wm42018-05-31
| | | | Often requested, trivial.
* stream_lavf: remove deprecated hls protocol from whitelistGravatar wm42018-01-25
| | | | | | The use of the FFmpeg hls protocol (as opposed to demuxer) is "discouraged", and probably only causes additional potential security problems at best, so drop it.
* stream: use native libavformat reconnection featureGravatar wm42018-01-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Remove our own hacky reconnection code, and use libavformat's feature for that. It's disabled by default, and until recently it did not work too well. This has been fixed in recent ffmpeg git master[1], so there's no reason to keep our own code. [1] FFmpeg/FFmpeg@8a108bdea06fac43af9f44b6d2538f357451167a We set "reconnect_delay_max" to 7, which limits the maximum time it waits. Since libavformat doubles the wait time on each reconnect attempt (starting with 1), and stops trying to reconnect once the wait time is over the reconnect_delay_max value, this allows for 4 reconnection attempts which should add to 11 seconds maximum wait time. The default is 120, which seems too high for normal playback use. (The user can still override these parameters with --stream-lavf-o.)
* stream_lavf: minor fixes to HTTP reconnection supportGravatar wm42018-01-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't drop the stream buffers, because the read call (that must have been failing) might try to extend an existing read buffer in the first place. Just move the messy seek logic to stream_lavf.c. (In theory, stream_lavf should probably make libavformat connect at the correct offset instead of using a seek to reconnect it again. This patch doesn't fix it, but at least it's a good argument to have the messing with the position not in the generic code.) Also update the comment about avio not supporting reconnecting. It has that feature now. Maybe we should use it, but only after it gets fixed.
* stream_lavf: use avio_read_partial()Gravatar wm42017-09-01
| | | | Possibly improves latency and such things.
* stream_lavf: change license to LGPLGravatar wm42017-06-16
| | | | | | | | | | All authors agreed. The author of 1ee8ce75 did not respond, but it was a mpv pull request, and at this time DOCS/contribute.md and the "Copyright" file stated that all contributions must include LGPL relicensing permission. But you could claim that this was too "hidden". Sort of a corner case, I guess, but not my problem.
* stream_lavf: add support for data URIsGravatar Ricardo Constantino2017-01-25
| | | | | | | Only FFmpeg supports them and they need to be in the format data:// like other protocols or prefixed with ffmpeg:// or lavf://. Closes #4058
* stream_lavf: check seekable flag correctlyGravatar wm42016-09-27
| | | | | | AVIOContext.seekable is actually a bitfield. Currently, it has only AVIO_SEEKABLE_NORMAL defined, but it might be extended with a hint for non-byte seekability. Thus we should check it correctly.
* stream_lavf: fix determining seekabilityGravatar wm42016-09-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | demux_lavf.c forces seek to being determined as supported if STREAM_CTRL_HAS_AVSEEK is returned as success. But it always succeeds with current FFmpeg versions. (Seems like Libav commit cae448cf broke this in early 2016.) Now we can't determine via private API whether the underlying protocol supports read_seek anymore. The affected protocols (mostly rtmp) also set seekable=0, meaning they signal they're not seekable, even though read_seek would work. (My guess is that this can't be fixed because even though seekable is in theory a combination of elaborate flags [of which only 1 is defined, AVIO_SEEKABLE_NORMAL], a seekable!=0 always means it's byte-seekable in some way.) So the FFmpeg API is being garbage _again_, and all what we can do is determining this via protocol name and a whitelist. Should fix the behavior reported in #1701.
* stream/stream_lavf: user-agent option is deprecatedGravatar RiCON2016-09-18
| | | | | | There was both user-agent and user_agent options, the former is deprecated in FFmpeg/FFmpeg@27714b462 master. Libav uses both forms. This avoids constant `[ffmpeg] http: the user-agent option is deprecated, please use user_agent option` warnings using ytdl_hook.
* demux: do not access global optionsGravatar wm42016-09-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't access MPOpts directly, and always use the new m_config.h functions for accessing them in a thread-safe way. The goal is eventually removing the mpv_global.opts field, and the demuxer/stream-layer specific hack that copies MPOpts to deal with thread-safety issues. This moves around a lot of options. For one, we often change the physical storage location of options to make them more localized, but these changes are not user-visible (or should not be). For shared options on the other hand it's better to do messy direct access, which is worrying as in that somehow renaming an option or changing its type would break code reading them manually, without causing a compilation error.
* mpv_talloc.h: rename from talloc.hGravatar Dmitrij D. Czarkoff2016-01-11
| | | | This change helps avoiding conflict with talloc.h from libtalloc.
* stream_lavf: remove tabsGravatar wm42015-12-22
| | | | Death to tabs.
* options: add support for client certificate authenticationGravatar Joschka Tillmanns2015-10-20
| | | | | | | | Client certificates are supported by ffmpeg as documented here: > https://www.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-protocols.html#tls Signed-off-by: wm4 <wm4@nowhere>
* stream: minor cleanup to verbose loggingGravatar wm42015-09-30
| | | | | | Don't print the URL that is opened twice. stream.c and stream_lavf.c each printed it once. Remove the logging from stream_lavf.c, and move the log call to a more interesting point.
* Update license headersGravatar Marcin Kurczewski2015-04-13

* stream_lavf: workaround broken rtmp "timeout" optionGravatar wm42015-03-19
| | | | | | | | | | The libavformat rtmp protocol's "timeout" option has two problems: 1) Unlike all other protocols, it's in seconds and not microseconds 2) It enables "listen" mode, which breaks playback Make the --network-timeout do nothing in the rtmp case. Fixes #1704.
* stream: minor cleanupsGravatar wm42015-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix return types and return values to make them more consistent. Some reformatting and making code more concise. In stream_reconnect(), avoid the additional mp_cancel_test() call by moving the "connection lost" message below the mp_cancel_wait() call, which effectively leads to the same behavior when the stream was already canceled. (The goal is not to show the message in this case.) Merge stream_seek_long() into stream_seek(). It was the only caller. Always clear the eof flag on seeks. Reduce access to stream internals in cache.c and stream_lavf.c.
* stream_lavf: fix build with LibavGravatar wm42015-02-06
| | | | | | The API function used is FFmpeg-only. Sigh...
* options: add --network-timeoutGravatar wm42015-02-06
| | | | | | Not quite sure if this actually works as intended. Fixes #1566.
* stream_lavf: escape disallowed characters in http URLsGravatar wm42015-01-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In my opinion, libavformat should be doing this. But a patch handling a very safe case rejected, so I suppose we have to do it manually. (This patch was only escaping spaces, which can never work because they break the basic syntax of the HTTP protocol.) This commit attempts to do 2 things: - Try to guess whether libavformat will use the URL for http. This is not always trivial, because some protocols will recursively pass part of the user URL to http in some way. - Try to fix invalid URLs. We fix only the simplest case: only characters that are never valid are escaped. This excludes invalid escape codes, which happen with freestanding '%' characters. Fixes #1495.
* demux_lavf, stream_lavf: drop local buffers on time-seeksGravatar wm42014-10-30
| | | | | There was chance that some data was left in various local buffers after time-seeks. Probably doesn't actually matter.
* demux_lavf: mark as seekable if protocol supports seeking by timeGravatar wm42014-10-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | Basically, this will mark the demuxer as seekable with rtmp* and mmsh protocols. These protocols have network-level time seeking, and whether you can seek on the byte level does not matter. Until now, seeking was typically only enabled because of the cache, and a (nonsensical) warning was shown accordingly. It still could happen that the server doesn't actually support thse requests (or simply rejects them), so this is somewhat imperfect.
* demux_lavf: set stream network options if applicableGravatar wm42014-10-14
| | | | | | | | | | | Normally, we pass libavformat demuxers a wrapped mpv stream. But in some cases, such as HLS and RTSP, we let libavformat open the stream itself. In these cases, set typical network properties like useragent according to the mpv options. (We still don't set it for the cases where libavformat opens other streams on its own, e.g. when opening the companion .sub file for .idx files - not sure if we maybe should always set these options.)
* stream_lavf: expose concat://Gravatar wm42014-10-14
| | | | | | | Apparently there's an use for this; see #1178. I won't redocument obscure FFmpeg features, so add a hint to the manpage that some protocols are documented in FFmpeg instead.
* stream: redo playback abort handlingGravatar wm42014-09-13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This mechanism originates from MPlayer's way of dealing with blocking network, but it's still useful. On opening and closing, mpv waits for network synchronously, and also some obscure commands and use-cases can lead to such blocking. In these situations, the stream is asynchronously forced to stop by "interrupting" it. The old design interrupting I/O was a bit broken: polling with a callback, instead of actively interrupting it. Change the direction of this. There is no callback anymore, and the player calls mp_cancel_trigger() to force the stream to return. libavformat (via stream_lavf.c) has the old broken design, and fixing it would require fixing libavformat, which won't happen so quickly. So we have to keep that part. But everything above the stream layer is prepared for a better design, and more sophisticated methods than mp_cancel_test() could be easily introduced. There's still one problem: commands are still run in the central playback loop, which we assume can block on I/O in the worst case. That's not a problem yet, because we simply mark some commands as being able to stop playback of the current file ("quit" etc.), so input.c could abort playback as soon as such a command is queued. But there are also commands abort playback only conditionally, and the logic for that is in the playback core and thus "unreachable". For example, "playlist_next" aborts playback only if there's a next file. We don't want it to always abort playback. As a quite ugly hack, abort playback only if at least 2 abort commands are queued - this pretty much happens only if the core is frozen and doesn't react to input.
* stream_lavf: assume icy title data is terminated with ';'Gravatar wm42014-09-06
| | | | Should fix #1071.
* player: don't allow remote playlists to load local filesGravatar wm42014-09-01
| | | | | | | | Because that might be a bad idea. Note that remote playlists still can use any protocol marked with is_safe and is_network, because the case of http-hosted playlists containing URLs using other streaming protocols is not unusual.
* player: always load playlistsGravatar wm42014-08-31
| | | | | | | | | Until now, you had to use --load-unsafe-playlists or --playlist to get playlists loaded. Change this and always load playlists by default. This still attempts to reject unsafe URLs. For example, trying to invoke libavdevice pseudo-demuxer is explicitly prevented. Local paths and any http links (and some more) are always allowed.
* Move compat/ and bstr/ directory contents somewhere elseGravatar wm42014-08-29
| | | | | | | | | bstr.c doesn't really deserve its own directory, and compat had just a few files, most of which may as well be in osdep. There isn't really any justification for these extra directories, so get rid of them. The compat/libav.h was empty - just delete it. We changed our approach to API compatibility, and will likely not need it anymore.
* stream: tweaks to network reconnection codeGravatar wm42014-08-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Don't reconnect to the cache (since the cached stream already handles reconnection). This is necessary, because since commit 0b428e44 the "streaming" field (which also controls whether attempting to reconnect makes sense at all) is inherited to the cache stream wrapper. Also, let the stream reset its own position on reconnect. This removes some assumptions and messy handling from the reconnect function. Make sure the cache is dropped on reconnect. This takes care of readjusting the stream position if necessary. (Also drop the cache on DVB channel switching commands.)
* Improve setting AVOptionsGravatar wm42014-08-02
| | | | | | | | Use OPT_KEYVALUELIST() for all places where AVOptions are directly set from mpv command line options. This allows escaping values, better diagnostics (also no more "pal"), and somehow reduces code size. Remove the old crappy option parser (av_opts.c).
* stream: hack-fix rtmp-level seekingGravatar wm42014-07-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This didn't work, because the timebase was wrong. According to the ffmpeg doxygen, if the stream index is -1 (which is what we used), the timebase is AV_TIME_BASE. But this didn't work, and it really expected the stream's timebase. Quite "surprising", since this feature (avio_seek_time) is used by rtmp only. Fixing this properly is too hard, so hack-fix our way around it. STREAM_CTRL_SEEK_TO_TIME is also used by DVD/BD, so a new STREAM_CTRL_AVSEEK is added. We simply pass-through the request verbatim.
* stream_lavf: allow setting AVOptions with --stream-lavf-oGravatar wm42014-07-30
| | | | | This commit also creates a private option struct for stream_lavf.c, but since I'm lazy, I'm not moving any existing options to it.
* demux, stream: change metadata notificationGravatar wm42014-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | (Again.) This time, we simply make it event-based, as it should be. This is done for both demuxer metadata and stream metadata. For some ogg-over-icy streams, 2 updates are reported on stream start. This is because libavformat reports an update right on start, while including the same info in the "static" metadata. I don't know if that's a bug or a feature.
* Add more constGravatar wm42014-06-11
| | | | | | | While I'm not very fond of "const", it's important for declarations (it decides whether a symbol is emitted in a read-only or read/write section). Fix all these cases, so we have writeable global data only when we really need.
* stream: remove chaos related to writeable streamsGravatar wm42014-05-24
| | | | | | | | | | For some reason, we support writeable streams. (Only encoding uses that, and the use of it looks messy enough that I want to replace it with FILE or avio today.) It's a chaos: most streams do not actually check the mode parameter like they should. Simplify it, and let streams signal availability of write mode by setting a flag in the stream info struct.
* stream_lavf: remove redundant message prefixesGravatar wm42014-05-24
|
* stream: don't use end_posGravatar wm42014-05-24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Stop using it in most places, and prefer STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE. The advantage is that always the correct size will be used. There can be no doubt anymore whether the end_pos value is outdated (as it happens often with files that are being downloaded). Some streams still use end_pos. They don't change size, and it's easier to emulate STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE using end_pos, instead of adding a STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE implementation to these streams. Make sure int64_t is always used for STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE (it was uint64_t before). Remove the seek flags mess, and replace them with a seekable flag. Every stream must set it consistently now, and an assertion in stream.c checks this. Don't distinguish between streams that can only be forward or backwards seeked, since we have no such stream types.
* stream: use libavformat interrupt callbackGravatar wm42014-04-25
| | | | | | This will allow to cancel opening slow/stuck network streams faster. How well his work probably depends on the protocol implementation in libavformat.
* Remove some more unneeded version checksGravatar wm42014-03-16
| | | | | All of these check against things that happened before the latest supported FFmpeg/Libav release.
* stream_lavf: prefix icy metadata with "icy-"Gravatar wm42014-02-06
| | | | | ICY metadata is not always of good quality, and especially if there are proper tags. We don't want the ICY metadata override the tags.
* stream: minor cookie cleanupGravatar wm42013-12-22
| | | | | Avoid global state (reload cookie file every time), actually free loaded cookies, use mp_get_user_path() for cookie file.
* options: move network related options to MPOptsGravatar wm42013-12-22
|
* stream: mp_msg conversionsGravatar wm42013-12-21
| | | | We also drop some slave mode stuff from stream_vcd.
* Split mpvcore/ into common/, misc/, bstr/Gravatar wm42013-12-17
|
* Merge mp_talloc.h into ta/ta_talloc.hGravatar wm42013-12-17
|
* Move options/config related files from mpvcore/ to options/Gravatar wm42013-12-17
| | | | | | | | | 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.
* stream_lavf: fix a small memory leakGravatar wm42013-11-21
| | | | Also add an explanation why this special code path for rtsp is needed.
* stream_lavf: don't duplicate list of rtmp protocolsGravatar wm42013-11-04
| | | | Assume a rtmp prefix means rtmp instead.
