We have callbacks for that, they also do some checks and help ensure things are done
correctly. Only place where this is assumed not true is blenloader (since here we
may affect refcount of library IDs as well...).
ImBuf types were getting stored as bitflags in a 32bit integer which had
already run out of space. Solved the problem by separating file type to
an ftype enum, and file specific options to foptions.

This commit makes it so CameraIntrinsics is no longer hardcoded
to use the traditional polynomial radial distortion model. Currently
the distortion code has generic logic which is shared between
different distortion models, but had no other models until now.
This moves everything specific to the polynomial radial distortion
to a subclass PolynomialDistortionCameraIntrinsics(), and adds a
new division distortion model suitable for cameras such as the
GoPro which have much stronger distortion due to their fisheye lens.
This also cleans up the internal API of CameraIntrinsics to make
it easier to understand and reduces old C-style code.
New distortion model is available in the Lens panel of MCE.
- Polynomial is the old well-known model
- Division is the new one which s intended to deal better with huge
distortion.
Coefficients of this model works independent from each other
and for division model one probably want to have positive values
to have a barrel distortion.
This gives a huge speedup gain for cases when you've got
rather huge markers on a byte images.
Done by skipping IMB_float_from_rect()/IMB_rect_from_float()
for such cases. We can sample the buffers without color space
conversion.
Basically proxy colorspace didn't work well enough.
It is still a bit weird and mainly:
- Proxies for image sequences are built in the image color space.
- Proxies for movies are built in the movie color space.
This could be unified but would need some work in proxy build
to make it not just pipe frames from one FFmpeg context to
another but also apply OCIO on it.
Issue was caused by NULL-pointer de-reference when post-processing
the frame without putting the frame to movie cache.

Previously this only worked for some datablocks relevant to rendering, now it
can be used to detect if any type of datablock was added or removed (but not
yet to detect if it was modified, we need many more depsgraph tags for that).
Most of the changes are some function parameter changes, the important parts
are the DAG_id_type_tag calls.

existing code was very stupid.
- all ID pointers for clipboard strips are handled uniformly.
- clipboard stores a duplicate ID pointer which are restored on paste.
- restoring pointers...
-- use ID's that are still in the database (copy&paste within the same file).
-- fallback to name lookup.
-- fallback to loading them from the original filepath (movie-clip and sound only).
also fix bug pasting where initialing the sound wasn't done if there was no frame-offset.
- Display additional information about channels
and buffer type (float/byte).
- Don't show frame number beyong sequence length.
- Also fixed issues with footage length calculation,
so it's pronbably will be needed to reload some
of existing footages.
- Nearest interpolation was always used when there's
no rotation for stabilization. Was a failure of
optimization heuristic.
- Made 2d stabilization frame acquiring threaded.
This function is only used for display and sequencer
which will only benefit of threads here.
- Fixed bug introduced in r48749 which lead to
re-making stable frame on every redraw.
- When changing clip in clip editor, remove all frames
from it's cache to free memory for new clip.
- When changing proxy render settings, free cache as well.
Made it an operator instead of automatic prefetching.
Filling the whole memory with frames is not always
desired behavior.
Now prefetching is available via P-key, or from Clip
panel in toolbox or from Clip menu.
Also enabled prefetching for non-proxied movies.
When trying to load file below actual sequence range
(like trying to load file for scene frame 10 when clip's
start frame is 20) first frame from file sequence is used.
Before this change first file used to be loaded for every
scene frame below start frame, which polluted memory with
unwanted data.
Now first frame would be loaded only once in this case.
This commit basically implements frames prefetching for
movie clip datablock.
Number of frames to be prefetched is controlled in User
Preferences, System tab, Prefetch Frames option.
Currently prefetching is destructive-less for movie cache,
meaning mo frames will be removed from the cache when while
prefetching. This is because it's half of simplier to
implement, but it also makes sense from tracking point of
view -- we could want to playback in both directions and
removing frames from behind time cursor is not always a
good idea.
Anyway, smarter prefetching strategy could be developed
later.
Some implementation notes:
- Added MEM_CacheLimiter_get_memory_in_use function to get
memory usage of specified memory limiter.
- Fixed prototype of MEM_CacheLimiter_get_maximum which
was simply wrong (used wrong data type for output).
- Added some utility functions to movie clip and movie
cache for direct cache interaction and obtaining cache
statistics.
- Prefetching is implemented using general jobs system.
which is invoking from clip draw function.
- Prefetcing will stop as soon other job or playback starts.
This is done from performance point of view. Jobs will
likely require lots of CPU power and better to provide
whole CPU to it.
Playback is a bit more complicated case. For jpeg sequence
playback prefetching while paying back is nice. But trying
to prefetch heavy exr images and doing color space
conversion slows down both playback and prefetching.
TODO:
- Think of better policy of dealing with already cached frames
(like when cached frames from other clips prevents frames
from current clip to be prefetched)
- Currently a bit funky redraw notification happens from
prefetch job. Perhaps own ND_ is better to have here.
- Hiding clip while prefetch is active in theory shall stop
prefetching job.
- Having multiple clips opened on file load will prefetch
frames for only one of them.
PyNodes opens up the node system in Blender to scripters and adds a number of UI-level improvements.
=== Dynamic node type registration ===
Node types can now be added at runtime, using the RNA registration mechanism from python. This enables addons such as render engines to create a complete user interface with nodes.
Examples of how such nodes can be defined can be found in my personal wiki docs atm [1] and as a script template in release/scripts/templates_py/custom_nodes.py [2].
=== Node group improvements ===
Each node editor now has a tree history of edited node groups, which allows opening and editing nested node groups. The node editor also supports pinning now, so that different spaces can be used to edit different node groups simultaneously. For more ramblings and rationale see (really old) blog post on code.blender.org [3].
The interface of node groups has been overhauled. Sockets of a node group are no longer displayed in columns on either side, but instead special input/output nodes are used to mirror group sockets inside a node tree. This solves the problem of long node lines in groups and allows more adaptable node layout. Internal sockets can be exposed from a group by either connecting to the extension sockets in input/output nodes (shown as empty circle) or by adding sockets from the node property bar in the "Interface" panel. Further details such as the socket name can also be changed there.

Handle sequences in a special case for dealing with
sequence sources.
Namely handle separate frames in separate threads,
but do disk read from a critical section since HDD
is not so friendly with lots threads requesting for
data from it.
Makes proxy building much faster than it was before.
This commit implements multi-threaded calculation of frames
when building proxies. Both scaling and undistortion steps
are now threaded.
Frames and proxy resolution are still handled one-by-one,
saving files after every single step. So if HDD is not so
fast, this commit could have not so much benefit.
Internal changes:
- Added IMB_scaleImBuf_threaded which scales given image
buffer in multiple threads and uses bilinear filtering.
- libmv's camera intrinsics now have SetThreads() method
which is used to specify how many OpenMP threads to use
for buffer distortion/undistortion.
And yeah, this code is using OpenMP for threading.
- Reshuffled a bit libmv-capi calls and added function
BKE_tracking_distortion_set_threads to specify number
of threads used by intrinscis.
Issue happened for scene. movie clip and mask strips, which contains
pointers to datablocks which are freeing on loading new file.
Also, scene strip would crash when pasted from clipboard after scene
was unlinked from file.
Such kind of image sequences wouldn't be displayed still
and supporting them would take some additional time, but
for now it'll be no memory leak on attempt opening such
images.
