Bug#905050: mpv: why does mpv tell it's built on unknown [PATCH]

2020-12-24 Thread Richard Noble
Control: tags -1 + patch

[resending as debbugs seems to have ignored my first attempt]

One way of fixing this bug is to set the BUILDDATE variable
based on the timestamp of the most recent debian changelog entry.

That way BUILDDATE contains a sane date instead of "UNKNOWN",
but the build is reproducible (all builds from the same source
package version will have the same date).

Patch attached below. In order for it to take effect, it is
necessary to remove --disable-build-date option in debian/rules,
i.e. revert the patch from https://bugs.debian.org/784267

Can you try playing the file with ffplay? If you get the same warning
then at least it's nothing to do with mpv.

=

Incidentally I notice this upstream PR which would remove the "built on
UNKNOWN" line and therefore fix the first part of the bug report:
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/pull/6046

Maybe they saw this bug :P

With quite a few more media files than I care to admit. It could be
something that a newer encoder could fix when encoding a media file,
dunno what. I'll try to see if somebody knows  a better de-bugging way
so I know what's missing or broken and try to see if there is
something that needs fixing.

Please share if anybody from the debian-multimedia can help in
identifying what could be done or info. found out .

This is because we build mpv with --disable-build-date for reproducible
builds so the build date is "UNKNOWN". Probably it would be nicer if
that line was completely omitted.

Probably a broken input file. Does this only happen for some files?

what kinda stuck me mpv saying -

[cplayer]  built on UNKNOWN and that info. seems to indicate something
is wrong.

At times when I'm running a video, I get this ffmpeg warning -

[ffmpeg] NULL: Failed to parse extradata

and have no idea why that error triggrs.

While the video works and everything, I am put off by that message and
dunno who is to blame, either mpv, ffmeg or something else ?

FWIW, the video and the sub. play right.
