size of this;
Finally, the Sequencer audio support and global audio/animation sync stuff!
(See http://intrr.org/blender/audiosequencer.html)
Stuff that has been done:
./source/blender/blenloader/intern/writefile.c
./source/blender/blenloader/intern/readfile.c
Added code to make it handle sounds used by audio strips, and to convert
Scene data from older (<2.28) versions to init Scene global audio settings
(Scene->audio) to defaults.
./source/blender/include/BSE_seqaudio.h
./source/blender/src/seqaudio.c
The main audio routines that start/stop/scrub the audio stream at
a certain frame position, provide the frame reference for the current
stream position, mix the audio, convert the audio, mixdown the audio
into a file.
./source/blender/makesdna/DNA_sound_types.h
Introduced new variables in the bSound struct to accomodate the sample
data after converted to the scene's global mixing format (stream, streamlen).
Also added a new flag SOUND_FLAGS_SEQUENCE that gets set if the Sound
belongs to a sequence strip.
./source/blender/makesdna/DNA_scene_types.h
Added AudioData struct, which holds scene-global audio settings.
./source/blender/makesdna/DNA_sequence_types.h
Added support for audio strips. Some variables to hold Panning/Attenuation
information, position information, reference to the sample, and some flags.
./source/blender/makesdna/DNA_userdef_types.h
./source/blender/src/usiblender.c
Added a "Mixing buffer size" userpref. Made the versions stuff initialize
it to a default for versions <2.28.
./source/blender/makesdna/DNA_space_types.h
./source/blender/src/filesel.c
Added a Cyan dot to .WAV files. Any other suggestions on a better color? :)
./source/blender/src/editsound.c
Changes (fixes) to the WAV file loader, re-enabled some gameengine code that
is needed for dealing with bSounds and bSamples.
./source/blender/src/editipo.c
./source/blender/src/drawseq.c
./source/blender/src/editnla.c
./source/blender/src/space.c
./source/blender/src/drawview.c
./source/blender/src/renderwin.c
./source/blender/src/headerbuttons.c
- Created two different wrappers for update_for_newframe(), one which scrubs
the audio, one which doesn't.
- Replaced some of the occurences of update_for_newframe() with
update_for_newframe_muted(), which doesn't scrub the audio.
- In drawview.c: Changed the synchronization scheme to get the current audio
position from the audio engine, and use that as a reference for setting
CFRA. Implements a/v sync and framedrop.
- In editipo.c: Changed handling of Fac IPOs to be usable for audio strips as
volume envelopes.
- In space.c: Added the mixing buffer size Userpref, enabled audio scrubbing
(update_for_newframe()) for moving the sequence editor framebar.
./source/blender/src/editseq.c
Added support for audio strips and a default directory for WAV files which
gets saved from the last Shift-A operation.
./source/blender/src/buttons.c
Added Scene-global audio sequencer settings in Sound buttons.
./source/blender/src/sequence.c
Various stuff that deals with handling audio strips differently than
usual strips.
This enables Blender to;
- have scenes with different codec settings. (same as avicodec)
- render directly without dialog.
- batch/background render to Quicktime movies.
Only tested on windows. ;)
All modifications are behind compileflag INTERNATIONAL,
and affect these two directories; source/blender/src and
source/blender/ftfont.
Thanks to philipp, a new utf8towchar() function is added
to Shizu's work, which fixes the international support for
OSX. It also makes the iconv library obsolete. This means
all translation files (blender.mo) need to be 'recoded' to
UTF-8, and language support in the fileselect window and
the text editor is not possible. Iconv might be added in
the future to enable these features.
This code allows you to load Quicktime images and movies as textures
and render animations to Quicktime movies.
Note that the selected output codec is *not* saved in the blendfile.
To enable Quicktime functionality you need the SDK from Apple:
OSX: ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Development_Kits/QT6SDK_Mac.hqx
Win: ftp://ftp.apple.com/developer/Development_Kits/QT6SDK_Win.hqx
Add the \QTDevWin\CIncludes and \QTDevWin\Libraries directories
from this SDK to your build environment.
Enable the WITH_QUICKTIME compile flag in the following directories:
bf\blender\source\blender\imbuf
bf\blender\source\blender\src
bf\blender\source\blender\render
bf\blender\source\creator
- drawXXXspace, changeXXXspace, and winqreadXXXspace now receive the area
and spacedata as explicit arguments, allowing them to access private
data w/o going through globals.
- pass the new BWinEvent through to the winqreadXXXspace, allowing future
access to extended event data.
Removed direct calls to winqreadXXXspace to simulate user actions, replaced
by calls to action functions in edit.c or the appropriate handler.
the wireframe after drawing the model in solid/shaded/textured mode.
The user can set this per object using the "Wire" button in the
edit buttons window.
(I noticed its not completely gone yet from the blender/source dir)
But its a big step in the right direction if it doesn't enable
all of the functionatlity already...
(Using cscope for LICENSE_KEY_VALID still turns up some stuff)
