MediaCodec errors always trigger IllegalStateException or a subtype
(like MediaCodec.CodecException).
In practice, this avoids to retry if the error is caused by an
IOException when writing the video packet to the socket.
The purpose of automatic downscaling on error is to make mirroring work
by just starting scrcpy without an explicit -m value, even if the
encoder could not encode at the screen definition.
It is only useful when we detect an encoding failure before the first
frame. Downsizing later could be surprising, so disable it.
PR #2947 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/pull/2947>
Now that scrcpy attempts with a lower definition on any MediaCodec
error (or the user explicitly requests to disable auto-downsizing), the
suggestion is unnecessary.
PR #2947 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/pull/2947>
Some devices are not able to encode at the device screen definition.
Instead of just failing, try with a lower definition on any MediaCodec
error.

A scroll event might be produced when a mouse button is pressed (for
example when scrolling while selecting a text). For consistency, pass
the actual buttons state (instead of 0).
In practice, it seems that this use case does not work properly with
Android event injection, but it will work with HID mouse.
If --no-control is enabled, then it is not necessary to create a second
communication socket between the client and the server.
This also facilitates the use of the server alone (without the client)
to receive only the raw video stream.
Expose the inject input event mode so that it is possible to wait for
the events to be "finished". This will be necessary to read the
clipboard content only after the COPY or CUT key event is handled.
PR #2834 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/pull/2834>
The options values to configure the server were identified by their
command-line argument index. Now that there are a lot of arguments, many
of them being booleans, it became unreadable and error-prone.
Identify the arguments by a key string instead, and make them optional.
This will also simplify running the server manually for debugging.
Cleanup is used for some options like --show-touches to restore the
state on exit.
If the configuration fails, do not crash the whole process. Just log an
error.
PR #2802 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/pull/2802>
Before Android 8, executing the "settings" command from a shell was
very slow (~1 second), because it spawned a new app_process to execute
Java code. Therefore, to access settings without performance issues,
scrcpy used private APIs to read from and write to settings.
However, since Android 12, this is not possible anymore, due to
permissions changes.
To make it work again, execute the "settings" command on Android 12 (or
on previous version if the other method failed). This method is faster
than before Android 8 (~100ms).

Settings read/write errors were silently ignored. Report them via a
SettingsException so that the caller can handle them.
This allows to log a proper error message, and will also allow to
fallback to a different settings method in case of failure.
PR #2802 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/pull/2802>
Until now, the code that needed to read/write the Android settings had
to explicitly open and close a ContentProvider.
Wrap these details into a Settings class.
This paves the way to provide an alternative implementation of settings
read/write for Android >= 12.
PR #2802 <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/pull/2802>
Remove useless intermediate method with a "mode" parameter (it's always
called with the same mode).
This also avoids the need for a specific injectEventOnDisplay() method,
since it does not conflict with another injectEvent() method anymore.
Add a new mode to the --lock-video-orientation option, to lock the
initial orientation of the device.
This avoids to pass an explicit value (0, 1, 2 or 3) and think about
which is the right one.
The collapsing action collapses any panels.
By the way, the Android method is named collapsePanels().

The shortcut "back on screen on" is a bit special: the control is
requested by the client, but the actual event injection (POWER or BACK)
is determined on the device.
To properly inject DOWN and UP events for BACK, transmit the action as
a control parameter.
If the screen is off:
- on DOWN, inject POWER (DOWN and UP) (wake up the device immediately)
- on UP, do nothing
If the screen is on:
- on DOWN, inject BACK DOWN
- on UP, inject BACK UP
A corner case is when the screen turns off between the DOWN and UP
event. In that case, a BACK UP event will be injected, so it's harmless.
As a consequence of this change, the BACK button is now handled by
Android on mouse released. This is consistent with the keyboard shortcut
(Mod+b) behavior.
