Telling a user to "Check your driver is up to date" is too open to
interpretation, many users will use Windows Update or Device Manager to
check for updates which doesn't help. Instead, let's explicitly tell
them what is most likely to fix the problem.
- Do not set sample rate (not required here, but can be 24/32 now)
- Only set bit_rate for lossless codecs
- Only set frame_size for codecs using a fixed one
With 5fe417bce1 it became possible to use
Opus in local recordings, this could potentially have the user try to
record Opus in MP4.
FLAC in MP4 was marked as stable in FFmpeg 6.0
Opus in MP4 was marked as stable in FFmpeg 4.3
For Ubuntu 20.04 we still need the latter, for 22.04 (and potentially
other Linux distributions) the former.
While FLAC is not yet implemented, we may want to do that in the near
future so for simplicity just keep it at 6.0.
The empty clause was originally introduced to set a cutoff settings as a
hack at a commit ae862c16a and later removed at a commit a89470d2e. At
this time, the clause became empty but another commit aa58b9cf5 reuse
the clause and finally a commit 9baedb1c6 removes so that the clause is
empty now.
This reverts commit aa58b9cf5f.
FFmpeg has reverted their default AAC encoder from fast to twoloop,
which has much better rate control management, making it closer to CBR,
and it sounds much better.
Also modifies libobs & deps/media-playback.
AV_CODEC_CAP_TRUNCATED was removed in avcodec 60 [1].
We ifdef the code depending on it to allow compilation.

This is an option that while very powerful also provides a footgun for
users if they don't have enough memory. It will be helpful for support
volunteers to be able to see if the option has been enabled.
Stingers -- and especially track matte stingers -- are currently subject
to real time decoding, which can be detrimental in a production
environment where a stinger video may not be able to decode in a timely
fashion.
To remedy this, this change adds an option to fully decode stingers
immediately and cache the decoded video/audio in RAM for playback to
greatly improve stinger performance.
When bitrate is updated, a check against 'lookahead' setting is done.
If 'lookahead' is enabled, the bitrate update is disabled.
We indeed used to observe crashes with nvenc when frequent bitrate
resettings were effected while lookahead option was enabled.
But recent tests have shown that the issue is gone.
As a result this commit allows 'lookahead' with bitrate live update.

FFmpeg wipes priv_data if the encoder fails to start, so we need some
way of knowing if the GPU index was non-zero. This is a bit ugly but the
best way to do it for now.
This writes the result of nvEncGetLastErrorString to the last encoder
error instead of just the log file. This makes it user-visible, which
should help users diagnose and solve the problem.
Also strips off leading colons from NVENC error strings as these can
look odd given our format string. An example of such an error:
::NV_ENC_TWO_PASS_FULL_RESOLUTION is only supported multipass encoding
on this architecture.
The aac spec has a list of default channel layouts that are implemented
by all aac encoders / decoders.
Unfortunately 2.1 is not in that list. When I wrote the surround sound
support into OBS, as a workaround I decided to encode 2.1 as
AV_CH_LAYOUT_SURROUND = FL+FR+FC.
The LFE channel is encoded as a regular audio channel which uses more
bits but this allows compatibility with all aac decoders.
Recently we updated to the new channel layout API of FFmpeg, but the
mapping of 2.1 to AV_CH_LAYOUT_SURROUND was forgotten in the FFmpeg
native aac encoder. This is remedied here.

The `srt_bstats()` function is not guaranteed to zero the stats object
before filling in stats. If a socket was connected, then disconnected,
without any data being sent over it, the stats object would remain
uninitialized, and weird results could occur.
Remove code forcing x264 and ffmpeg aac encoder. People using custom
ffmpeg output should be able to use other video and audio encoders when
streaming with RTMP, given its h264 or aac.
On systems with multiple graphics adapters, one card can be configured
as power saving, and another card can be configured as performance.
Sometimes, OBS and the encoder test subprocesses will not be configured
the same way, so it's necessary to provide adapter order to the encoder
test subprocesses.
This change ensures the adapter order by passing the LUIDs to the test
subprocesses. The adapter indexes will then be updated accordingly.
