The current URI handling only removes the file: prefix, but we also need
to consider the case of percent encoding.
Percent encoding can happen with non-ASCII characters in the path.
I hit this through mpv with vobsub subtitles when dragging subtitles
onto the player using the mouse.
Vobsub uses two files: an .idx file and a .sub file. mpv decodes the
file path for direct inputs to mpv (the .idx file here), so that's why
mpv works for most things today.
When passed the .idx file from a mouse-drag, mpv calls the FFmpeg mpeg
demuxer which then tries to find the corresponding .sub file in
vobsub_read_header.
However, mpv does not decode the path for the vobsub track name, which
FFmpeg uses to find the sub file,
so open() was receiving the path with "file:" removed but still had the
percent encoding, so it obviously failed.
I have a similar patch for mpv to make mpv decode the vobsub sub file
name before passing to
FFmpeg as well, but I have received feedback from multiple mpv
developers that this is also a
FFmpeg issue, so hopefully we can fix it in both places.

NAK, this is a huge compatibility break.
But this fix is necessary, you are right.
What needs to happen to handle this correctly:
- Introduce a “fs:” protocol as a synonym to file:.
- Change “file:” (but not “fs:”!) to detect if the rest of the path
looks like a real file URL or a raw file path.
- If it looks like a real file URL, de-percent-escape it.
- If it looks like a raw file path, treat it the legacy way after
printing a warning.
- In a few years, remove the heuristics and always handle “file:” in the
standards-compliant way.
I believe we can ignore incomplete / relative file:// URLs in the
transition period. The triple / would be a very reliable way of
identification.
Regards,

Okay, thanks. I tried asking if this patch would be accepted in IRC
before posting this to prevent this kind of situation but nobody responded.
I don't know enough about the codebase to implement the suggested
solution, so I'll let you all decide if you want to do it.
