- Update libplacebo to version 3.120.1:
This hotfix release fixes a number of minor issues with the v3.120.0
release, and also modularizes the included demo programs to cut down on
the number of compiled binaries.
Changes:
- hexadecimal strings in custom shaders may now include whitespace
- added 16-bit half float formats to the dummy pl_gpu
- significantly reduced verbosity of the included demo programs
- merged all of the demo program variants into a single binary that
picks the best windowing system / graphical API at runtime
- install `plplay` when demos are enabled
Fixes and performance improvements:
- fixed an integer overflow in a texture bounds check
- fixed a false positive error in the test framework on 32-bit platforms
- fixed some minor issues with various outdated comments
- fixed a potential use-after-free in the `plplay` demo program when
playing files containing embedded ICC profiles
- Update libplacebo to version 3.120.0. (Upstream changelog appended)
- Create a new package `plplay` for the included demo program. This requires
bundling a copy of `nuklear.h`, which is single-header library not included
as part of the libplacebo source distribution.
This is a feature release, introducing frame mixing, DRM format
modifiers, and support for custom LUTs -, while also greatly expanding
the available demo programs, in particular the `plplay` video player.
The main highlight is the new `pl_queue` abstraction living in
. This greatly simplifies the core of a
libplacebo-based video renderer by translating a stream of input frames
into an array of GPU-mapped textures suitable for frame mixing, given a
corresponding vsync timestamp. New frames can be delivered to this API
using a push or pull model, and they are lazily uploaded on an as-needed
basis as well as internally garbage collected when no longer needed.
This abstraction also contains all needed machinery for estimating
source/display framerates by comparing and averaging timestamps, freeing
users from the burden of having to accurately determine this information
a priori.
Also worth mentioning is the addition of support for custom LUTs,
currently only in Adobe's .cube format. They can be applied flexibly at
a number of locations in the video processing pipeline, including as a
replacement for YUV<->RGB conversion or tone/gamut mapping, and fed with
either normalized linear light or native-gamma values.
Among the included demo programs, the `plplay` example video player has
been greatly expanded - adding support for a settings GUI (based on
nuklear), frame timing and mixing, custom shaders, and more. This
example video player now serves as a convenient platform to demonstrate
all of libplacebo's advanced rendering features.
Finally, all of libplacebo now contains only code written entirely from
scratch (rather than deriving from mpv), opening up the possibility to
explore different licenses besides the current LGPLv2.1+. In particular,
permissive (MIT/BSD-style) licenses are being considered.
Additions:
- add asynchronous GPU callbacks, specifically to `pl_tex_transfer`,
allowing for non-blocking host memory transfer operations
- add `pl_shared_mem.stride_w/h` to control dmabuf pitch
- add `pl_render_image_mix` to blend multiple frames into a single
output image, given relative timestamp information
- add the `pl_filter_mitchell_clamp` filter preset
- add `pl_render_params.preserve_mixing_cache` to speed up redraws after
renderer size changes when frame mixing is active
- add to help with Dav1dPicture mapping
- implement `PL_HANDLE_HOST_PTR` for the OpenGL backend
- implement drm format modifiers for vulkan
- add a new field `pl_fmt.modifiers` for DRM format modifier negotiation
- add new header to load custom LUTs
(currently only supporting the .cube format)
- add `index_data/buf` to `pl_pass_run_params`, adding support for
indexed vertex data when dispatching shader passes
- add `pl_dispatch_vertex` to allow dispatching fragment shaders using
a list of custom vertices with custom vertex attributes
- add `pl_frame_recreate_from_avframe` and `pl_download_avframe` to help
downloading GPU textures back into AVFrame form
- add a new header to assist in taking
a stream of (Frame, PTS) pairs as well as a list of VSync times and
turning them into a stream of `pl_frame_mix` structs
- add `pl_white_from_temp` and `pl_color_adjustment.temperature` to
apply white point adjustments between correlated color temperatures (K)
- add `pl_filter_preset.description` containing a longer, human-readable
name for a given filter preset
Changes:
- `pl_3dlut_params` has been renamed `pl_icc_params`
- `pl_render_params.force_3dlut` has been renamed `force_icc_lut`
- `pl_3dlut_update/apply` have been renamed to `pl_icc_update/apply` and
moved to a (conditionally installed) new header
- `pl_upload_plane` no longer initializes `out_plane->shift_x/y` to 0,
instead leaving them unmodified (to avoid clobbering existing shift data)
- `pl_filter_box` has been renamed to `pl_filter_nearest`
- `pl_filter_triangle` has been renamed to `pl_filter_bilinear`
- `pl_render_params.frame_mixer = NULL` now disables frame mixing - to
get back the old behaviour, set this to `&pl_oversample_frame_mixer`.
- `pl_color_map_params.gamut_warning` now highlights out-of-gamut colors
in bright pink, rather than the old (ill-defined) inversion behaviour
- `pl_named_filter_config` has been renamed to `pl_filter_preset`
- `pl_find_named_filter` has been renamed to `pl_find_filter_preset`
- ditto for `pl_named_filter_function` and `pl_filter_function_preset`
