- Add check for header field in BMP decoder. This is needed to distinguish
whether file is indeed BMP image or not.
Without this check Blender could easily crash when it'll try to load
non-BMP image.
Tested with files from own HDD, but all of them has got BM header field,
more testing would be welcome.
- Made Jpeg2000 aware of J2K codec. Originally was needed to verify .j2c
files here in the studio, but having support of this codec would be
nice in general.
Currently supports only reading in this codec, writing would still
using jp2 codec.
- Make FFmpeg initialization called from creator, not from functions
which requires FFmpeg. Makes it easier to follow when initialization
should happen.
- Enable DNxHD codec. It was commented a while ago due to some strange
behavior on some platforms. Re-tested it on Linux and Windows and
it seemd to be working quite nice. Would let it be tested further,
if it wouldn't be stable enough, easy to comment it again.
- Make non-error messages from writeffmpeg.c printed only if ffmpeg
debug argument was passed to blender. Reduces console pollution
with messages which are not useful for general troubleshooting.
Error messages would still be printed to the console.
- Show FFmpeg error message when video stream failed to allocate.
makes it easier to understand what exactly is wrong from Blender
interface, no need to restart blender with FFmpeg debug flag and
check for console messages.
Used custom log callback for this which stores last error message
in static variable. This is not thread safe, but with current
design FFmpeg routines could not be called form several threads
anyway, so think it's fine solution/
This switches some areas of Blender which are related on FFmpeg stuff
from deprecated symbols to currently supported one.
Pretty straightforward changes based on documentation of FFmpeg's
API which symbols should be now used.
This should make Blender compatible with recent FFmpeg 0.11.
Should be no functional changes.
Thanks Lockal for finding faulty stat function which helped a lot.
Now there BLI_stat. I will replace all other stat later.
*** Please use BLI_xxxx() functions ***
for file operations

--debug
--debug-ffmpeg
--debug-python
--debug-events
--debug-wm
This makes debug output easier to read - event debug prints would flood output too much before.
For convenience:
--debug-all turns all debug flags on (works as --debug did before).
also removed some redundant whitespace in debug prints and prefix some prints with __func__ to give some context.
Not all file formats/calls are supported yet. It will be expended.
Please from now on use BLI_fopen, BLI_* for file manipulations.
For non-windows systems BLI_fopen just calls fopen.
For Windows, the utf-8 string is translated to utf-16 string in order to call UTF version of the function.
This patch adds:
* support for proxy building again (missing feature from Blender 2.49)
additionally to the way, Blender 2.49 worked, you can select several
strips at once and make Blender build proxies in the background (using
the job system)
Also a new thing: movie proxies are now build into AVI files, and
the proxy system is moved into ImBuf-library, so that other parts
of blender can also benefit from it.
* Timecode support: to fix seeking issues with files, that have
a) varying frame rates
b) very large GOP lengths
c) are broken inbetween
d) use different time code tracks
the proxy builder can now also build timecode indices, which are
used (optionally) for seeking.
For the first time, it is possible, to do frame exact seeking on
all file types.
* Support for different video-streams in one video file (can be
selected in sequencer, other parts of blender can also use it,
but UI has to be added accordingly)
* IMPORTANT: this patch *requires* ffmpeg 0.7 or newer, since
older versions don't support the pkt_pts field, that is essential
for building timecode indices.
Windows and Mac libs are already updated, Linux-users have to build
their own ffmpeg verions until distros keep up.
Added central compatibility header file, which enables blender to compile
against very old ffmpeg versions as well as very new versions using the
*NEW* API. (Old API functions are simulated using macros and inline functions)
Added a whole lot of additional checks, tested against 6 different versions
down the timeline, hopefully, now finally all is well.
* removed a lot of old cruft code for ancient ffmpeg versions
* made it compile again against latest ffmpeg / libav GIT
(also shouldn't break distro ffmpegs, since those API changes
have been introduced over a year ago. If it nevertheless breaks,
please send me an email)
[#25159] Vertex locations dont read correctly and are not labeled correctly in the properties bar.
- non rna buttons can now have units set.
- calls with invalid units system now raises an assert().
- include .mxf in filter.
replace some long duplicated, ifdef'd if statements for image extension.
- new function: BLI_testextensie_array(), can take an array of extensions.
- define extension arrays: imb_ext_image, imb_ext_movie, imb_ext_sound - we could have more of these.
- removed amiga extensions iff and lbm
* Removed dynamic linking libTIFF code and change it to static linking
(built into the blender executable). Dynamic linking made things a
fair bit more complicated and wasn't working at all before on OS X -
the dylib didn't exist and wasn't being copied. Since TIFF is more heavily
depended upon now in Blender, it makes sense to make it less 'optional'
and more in line with other libraries.
I've updated both CMake and scons, and CMake on OS X/64bit works fine.
It's now up to other platform/build system maintainers to enable this for
their respective platforms (Campbell will check it for linux). For windows,
and non-64bit osx, we need static libtiff libraries in /lib.
I've added options WITH_TIFF for CMake and WITH_BF_TIFF for scons,
so if blender won't build because of this, you should be able to disable
these options until your build system has been updated.
* Bonus feature: while doing this, I added support for loading 16bit and 32bit
per channel TIFFs - they get converted to Blender's float buffers. Handy for
zbrush displacement maps!
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:

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
Very, very last minute patch for Blender on Windows systems:
move blender's internal AVI reader the last try in the list of
codecs, when opening movie files.
Otherwise, it will fail on Movie Maker captured DV-AVI files.
(isavi() seems to mistreat these files as RAW/MJPEG AVI and fails
later on IMB_anim_absolute() )
Support for jpeg2000 and writing DCI Cinema standard files.
Notes
* 12 and 16bit channel depths are converted from/to blenders float buffer.
* Grayscale/RGB with alpha supported.
* Theres an option to save color channels as YCC rather then RGB.
* Quality 100 saves lossless
* The UI is a bit weired because of the DCI standards need to be given to the encoder.
