The comment was outdated:
- the "meta" header is now always present (not only when recording is
enabled);
- it is not only used for the video stream, but also for the audio
stream.
On initial connection, scrcpy sent some device metadata:
- the device name (to be used as window title)
- the initial video size (before any frame or even SPS/PPS)
But it is better to provide the initial video size as part as the video
stream, so that it can be demuxed and exposed via AVCodecContext to
sinks.
This avoids to pass an explicit "initial frame size" for the screen, the
recorder and the v4l2 sink.
By default, scrcpy mirrors only the video when audio capture fails on
the device. Add an option to force scrcpy to fail if audio is enabled
but does not work.
PR #3757 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/pull/3757>
When audio capture fails on the device, scrcpy continues mirroring the
video stream. This allows to enable audio by default only when
supported.
However, if an audio configuration occurs (for example the user
explicitly selected an unknown audio encoder), this must be treated as
an error and scrcpy must exit.
PR #3757 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/pull/3757>
By default, audio is enabled (--no-audio must be explicitly passed to
disable it).
However, some devices may not support audio capture (typically devices
below Android 11, or Android 11 when the shell application is not
foreground on start).
In that case, make the server notify the client to dynamically disable
audio forwarding so that it does not wait indefinitely for an audio
stream.
Also disable audio on unknown codec or missing decoder on the
client-side, for the same reasons.
PR #3757 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/pull/3757>
For video streams (at least H.264 and H.265), the config packet
containing SPS/PPS must be prepended to the next packet (the following
keyframe).
For audio streams (at least OPUS), they must not be merged.
PR #3757 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/pull/3757>
When a call to a packet or frame sink fails, do not log the error on the
caller side: either the "failure" is expected (explicitly stopped) or it
must be logged by the packet or frame sink implementation.
Use av_packet_ref() to reference the packet without copy.
This also simplifies the logic, by making the "offset" variable and the
memcpy() call local to the if-block.
A special PTS value was used to encode a config packet.
To prepare for adding more flags, use the most significant bits of the
PTS field to store flags.
