Yesterday, I updated hwswskin to 1.3, but it still isn't downloadable. Is the generation of the skin download tarballs working? Ingo

[PATCH] mencoder slang vobsub fix
by Edward Batutis 09 Sep '14

09 Sep '14

Hi, This is my very first patch for mplayer/mencoder. This patch allows mencoder -slang <lang> <some video file> -vobsub <some sub/idx path> ... to select a language from a SUB/IDX combination. For example: mencoder -slang en /movie/my.avi -vobsub /movie ... where /movie contains a my.sub and my.idx. This will select language 'en' from the idx/sub. Without this patch you always get subtitle zero, whatever it may be. Why this wasn't fixed long ago - who knows. Mplayer does the right thing. Not mencoder. =Ed

Danish translation ought to be renamed
by Ingo Brückl 14 Aug '14

14 Aug '14

Does anyone mind me renaming the Danish translation from help_mp-dk.h to help_mp-da.h and protocolling this in the Changelog? (AFAICS, there are no dependencies to be considered.) There is no ISO 639-1 language code "dk", Danish is "da". Ingo

[PATCH] use correct type of timestamps when recording from v4l2, fix #2176
by Jarek Czekalski 10 Jun '14

10 Jun '14

Mencoder should detect whether timestamps used by v4l2 come from monotonic or realtime clock. This is important for Linux kernels >=3.10. Details in bug report #2176 [1] Patch for stream/tvi_v4l2.c against r36970 attached. [1] https://trac.mplayerhq.hu/ticket/2176

[patch] RT subtitle timestamp parsing buggy
by hhaamu＠gmail.com 27 May '14

27 May '14

Hi The subtitle parser for .rt subtitles fails on hh:mm:ss and hh:mm:ss.ff type of timestamps and generally thinks they should all be displayed on the 0-second mark. This only happens when there is no 'end' attribute for the subtitles. For example, the following lines <time begin="01:39.40"/><clear/> It's different now. <time begin="00:02:14.7"/><clear/> Look... parse to [1]: 01:01:39.04 01:01:41.01 {~} It's different now. 00:00:02.00 00:00:08.00 {~} Look... The code is a long chain of sscanf() functions. There are two issues at play here: 1) sscanf sets a1, a2 etc even when the whole line does not match. The lines that try to parse begin/end tags will partially match and set those variables, leading to faulty timestamps. The variables should be reset to zero after each match attempt. 2) The line that tries matching for mm:ss timestamps actually matches more than it is supposed to. The mm:ss.ff and hh:mm:ss.ff lines are never run. Attached is a minimal patch that fixes these two issues. (It moves the problematic match downwards and resets the variables as necessary.) Other concerns relating to the surrounding code: 1) the 'len' variable sits completely unused and can be removed. 2) the timestamp calculation lines (a1*360000+a2*6000+a3*100+a4/10) assume that the fourth value parsed (a4) is in milliseconds. This assumption does not hold: the subtitle files I have are marked in tenths of a second. I'm not sure it can be fixed without rewriting the parsing code. [1] Incidentally, the -dumpjacosub option creates a dumpsub.jss file rather than the dumpsub.js file promised on the man page.

[PATCH] GUI: Implement a true rotary potmeter
by Hans-Dieter Kosch 12 Apr '14

12 Apr '14

The 'potmeter' currently responds only to horizontal mouse coordinates. This is especially confusing when the pot does not rotate in the expected direction depending on the quadrants of pot and mouse positions. Attached patch implements a true rotary pot. You can click on an angular position and rotate by circular mouse movement. And it has stop points like its mechanical counterpart. Tested with the volume pot of default skin 'Blue'. The patch is quite big due to the code redundancy in the files. Perhaps outsourcing and reusing common code? Hans-Dieter

[PATCH] add support for synopsys design-ware ARC processors
by Wayne Ren 06 Apr '14

06 Apr '14

Hi This patch is used to add support for synopsys design-ware ARC processors. With this patch mplayer is compiled and linked successfully with arc-linux-uclibc toolchain in buildroot. The mplayer is tested in arc linux and on the hardware board of arc770 processors. Best wishes!

[PATCH] GUI: Potmeter button corrections
by Hans-Dieter Kosch 01 Apr '14

01 Apr '14

Hi Ingo, while coding the rpotmeter, I came across the following: 1) When rendering the [hv]potmeter, the button width/height is regarded, so that the button doesn't exceed the potmeter edges. However, the counterpart in the mouse handling doesn't do the exact inverse calculation. The button is drifting under the mouse pointer from its one edge to its other when moving it from one end of the potmeter to the other. Only in the middle of the pot, the button is centered under the mouse. The attached 'potmeter_button_adjust.patch' corrects the mouse calculations to keep the button always centered under the mouse (like one might expect). The coming rpotmeter button will have the same behaviour (inherent by design). 2) The WIN32 GUI checks that the rendered potmeter button doesn't exceed the bounds. This seems not necessary as the item value is already limited. The GTK GUI doesn't do this check neither. The attached 'potmeter_button_cleanup.patch' removes those checks, simplifying the code.

GUI: Test skin for rpotmeter
by Hans-Dieter Kosch 31 Mar '14

31 Mar '14

Hi Ingo, attached a patch to create a test skin for rpotmeter: Take the old 'default' skin, apply 'skin.diff' and add 'volbtn.png'. Then, the volume poti is a rpotmeter with a new tri-state button plus the already existing phase image. Hans-Dieter
