Don't print the error message, as it isn't very useful. If there is no Quicktime in Blender GUI in a build that has support enabled, it means that the user hasn't installed Quicktime.
Was trying to decode an image when quicktime wasn't initialized.
There are a few other reports on windows about thumbnails crashing which this probably fixes.
This also fixes a bug where DisposeHandle wasn't called if decode was called with a NULL pointer.
tile cache code in imbuf, but it is not hooked up to the render engine.
Imbuf module: some small refactoring and removing a lot of unused or old code
(about 6.5k lines).
* Added a ImFileType struct with callbacks to make adding an file format type,
or making changes to the API easier.
* Move imbuf init/exit code into IMB_init()/IMB_exit() functions.
* Increased mipmap levels from 10 to 20, you run into this limit already with
a 2k image.
* Removed hamx, amiga, anim5 format support.
* Removed colormap saving, only simple colormap code now for reading tga.
* Removed gen_dynlibtiff.py, editing this is almost as much work as just
editing the code directly.
* Functions removed that were only used for sequencer plugin API:
IMB_anim_nextpic, IMB_clever_double, IMB_antialias, IMB_gamwarp,
IMB_scalefieldImBuf, IMB_scalefastfieldImBuf, IMB_onethird, IMB_halflace,
IMB_dit0, IMB_dit2, IMB_cspace
* Write metadata info into OpenEXR images. Can be viewed with the command
line utility 'exrheader'
For the image tile cache code, see this page:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:2.5/Source/Imaging/ImageTileCache
* added some new variables (mostly the same as with scons):
- USE_COCOA: use Cocoa for ghost (defaults to true)
- MACOSX_ARCHITECTURE: can be ppc, ppc64, i386, x86_64. By default this is the host architecture
(ppc for PowerPC Macs, i386 for Intel Macs). In theory this allows to cross compile blender for
a different architecture, though cross compilation only works on Intel Macs, because makesdna
and makesrna are built for the target architecture.
For a 64 bit build, set MACOSX_ARCHITECTURE to x86_64 (Intel) or ppc64 (PowerPC).
- MACOSX_MIN_VERS: minimum OS X version to run blender on (10.4 for 32 bit builds, 10.5 for 64 bit builds)
- MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET: needed by the linker to create an Application targeted for a specific
OS version (defaults to 10.4 for 32 bit builds, 10.5 for 64 bit builds)
- MACOSX_SDK: path to a specific SDK. currently not used
- USE_QTKIT: use QTKit instead of QuickTime (defaults to true for 64 bit builds, as using QTKit
is mandatory in that case))
* use the same compiler flags as scons
* default compiler now is gcc-4.0 when building for 10.4 and gcc-4.2 when building for 10.5
* extract $(LCGDIR)/release/python_$(MACOSX_ARCHITECTURE).zip to Application bundle. This might
break building on 10.4, to fix that, rename $(LCGDIR)/release/python.zip
When compiling blender, only MACOSX_ARCHITECTURE might be of interest, as it allows doing 64 bit
builds (or 32 bit PowerPC builds on Intel). All other variables are then set to reasonable defaults.
For current users of the Makefile system, this commit shouldn't change much.
This makes quicktime import (.mov & quicktime handled image files such as .gif) available also for 64bit OSX
Unfortunately, Apple currently incomplete implementation of QTKit has much lower performance than old Carbon Quicktime.
FYI, it spawns a 32bit process "QTKitserver" to place calls to Quicktime 7.
So this is mostly meant as a "backup" for 64bit OSX builds, until Apple releases full Quicktime X.
Export part will come just after.
CMake scripts updated: set WITH_QUICKTIME and USE_QTKIT to ON
Initial commit of imagebrowser in trunk.
BIG COMMIT!
Main changes:
* completely reworked imasel space
* creation and storage of the preview images for materials, textures, world and lamp
* thumbnails of images and movie files when browsing in the file system
* loading previews from external .blend when linking or appending
* thumbnail caching according to the Thumbnail Managing Standard: http://jens.triq.net/thumbnail-spec/
* for now just kept imasel access mostly as old imgbrowser (CTRL+F4, CTRL+F1) a bit hidden still.
* filtering of file types (images, movies, .blend, py,...)
* preliminary managing of bookmarks ('B' button to add, XKEY while bookmark active to delete)
More detailed info which will be updated here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Elubie/PreviewImageBrowser
Places that need special review (and probably fixes):
* BLO_blendhandle_get_previews in readblenentry
* readfile.c: do_version and refactorings of do_library_append
* UI integration
TODO and known issues still:
* Accented characters do not display correctly with international fonts
* Crash was reported when browsing in directory with movie files
* Bookmark management still needs some UI work (second scrollbar?), feedback here is welcome!

Many thanks to everyone who gave feedback and helped so far!
When the Quicktime movie output path lacks any path indication, the movie is created in the
executable directory.
Also new, when the Quicktime output movie isn't created for some reason, the rendering will
stop and give an error message (in the console).
Raw fix for the drive letter issue with Quicktime/Windows filenames.
When a drive letter is missing in a filename, it'll use the drive where the executable is.
Fix might be useful for Yafray too, because the extern char bprogname[]; doesn't return
a full path when Blender is started from the console.
Under Windows, Quicktime images with a depth < 32 didn't
show up in the sequence editor. To fix this a non transparent layer was added to them. (bf227-bf232)
I now have disabled this trick for GIF images, so the transparency is preserved. But this is a quick fix and
should be replaced by a transparency check function.
#include <QuickTime/Movies.h> instead of #include <Movies.h> on OS X to
avoid having to specify the full path to the QT headers in the Makefiles
#undef NDEBUG on OS X to avoid errors about ID being declared twice
enable support for QuickTime in the original Makefiles on OS X
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
