'camera' Object pointer of TimeMarkers is a 'temp' hack since Durian project...
Would need to be either made definitive now, or removed/reworked/whatever.
But since we intend to use that object pointer for other needs, and current code
could lead to crashing .blend files, for now let's fix that mess (was missing
some bits in read code, and also totally ignored in libquery code).
Should be safe for 2.78a.
Regression caused rBbcc863993ad, write code was assuming dw->ob was always valid,
wich is no more the case right after reading file e.g.
Another good example of how bad it is to use 'hidden' dependencies between datablocks. :(
And another fix to be backported to 2.78a. :(((
WARNING! Full build is broken, alembic has not been merged in correctly and has some references to particle stuff.
Don't have time to tackle this now (and probably would be better if someone knowing what he's doing does it anyway).

Current approach uses view aligned slicing to generate polygons for GL
texturing such that the generated polygons are always facing the view
plane. Now it is also possible to use object aligned slicing, which
creates polygons by slicing the object perpendicular to whichever axis
is facing the most the view plane. It is also possible to create a
single slice for inspecting the volume, or for 2D rendering effects.
Settings for this, along with a density multiplier setting, are to be
found in a newly added "Smoke Display Settings" panel in the smoke
domain properties tab.

This patch changes a couple of things in the video output encoding.
{F362527}
- Clearer separation between container and codec. No more "format", as this is
too ambiguous. As a result, codecs were removed from the container list.
- Added FFmpeg speed presets, so the user can choosen from the range "Very
slow" to "Ultra fast". By default no preset is used.
- Added Constant Rate Factor (CRF) mode, which allows changing the bit-rate
depending on the desired quality and the input. This generally produces the
best quality videos, at the expense of not knowing the exact bit-rate and
file size.
- Added optional maximum of non-B-frames between B-frames (`max_b_frames`).
- Presets were adjusted for these changes, and new presets added. One of the
new presets is [recommended](https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Encode/VFX#H.264)
for reviewing videos, as it allows players to scrub through it easily. Might
be nice in weeklies. This preset also requires control over the
`max_b_frames` setting.
GUI-only changes:
- Renamed "MPEG" in the output file format menu with "FFmpeg", as this is more
accurate. After all, FFmpeg is used when this option is chosen, which can
also output non-MPEG files.
- Certain parts of the GUI are disabled when not in use:
- bit rate options are not used when a constant rate factor is given.
- audio bitrate & volume are not used when no audio is exported.
Note that I did not touch `BKE_ffmpeg_preset_set()`. There are currently two
preset systems for FFmpeg (`BKE_ffmpeg_preset_set()` and the Python preset
system). Before we do more work on `BKE_ffmpeg_preset_set()`, I think it's a
good idea to determine whether we want to keep it at all.
After this patch has been accepted, I'd be happy to go through the code and
remove any then-obsolete bits, such as the handling of "XVID" as a container
format.

See commit's comments for details, but this boils down to: do not try to use
purely runtime cache data as a 'real' ID pointer in readcode, it's likely
doomed to fail in some cases, and is bad practice in any case!
Thix fix implies dupliweight's object will be invalid until first scene update
(i.e. first particles evaluation).
Includes:
- Version bump to 2.78
- Doxy file update
- New splash screen
- Wrapped some do_versions with version check
- Updated template to use proper font
After poking around a lot it seems Droid Sans was used during 2.7x series.
(or at least difference between using this font and comparing to previous
splash screens gives none visible difference).
Assigning NULL to scopes' data pointer in 'non-UI readfile' context was terribly wrong for sure,
if we'd really want to reset them here we should freed them first.
But we can rather just ignore them here, those are purely runtime data managed by image editor,
no need to touch them here.
It is common in blender to use 1-based counting for
frame sequences (while 0-based is allowed). Thus
initializing to use frame 1 as reference for stabilization
is likely to produce smooth start values in most cases
values > 1 will zoom in and values < 1 zoom out
Rationale: the changed orientation is more natural
from a user POV and doing it this way is also more
consistent with the calculation of the other
target_* parameters.
Compatibility: This will break *.blend files saved
with the previous version of this patch from the
last days (test period). It will *not* break any
old/migrated files: Previously, the DNA field "scale"
was only used to cache autoscale. Only with the
Stabilisator rework, "scale" becomes a first class
persistent DNA field. There is migration code to
init this field to 1.0

This function is only really secure in a very limited amount of cases,
and can especially bite you later if you change some buffer sizes...
So not worth bothering with it, just always use BLI_strncpy instead.
For now simply reshuffle option so they keep proper dependency flow.
Benefits:
- Has an ability to hide tracks lists to work with other sliders around.
Could be really handy to quickly get rid of lenghty lists.
- From a feedback seems to be fitting workflow better.
Things to doublecheck on:
- Feels a bit misordered: first you define whether one want to have
rotation stabilized, then have tracks, then scale options.
While this follows dependency flow (which is really good and which
we should not violate) it has weird feeling on whether things are
really where they have to be.
- Autoscale controls visibility of max-scale, can we just make it
active/inactive instead?
- Autoscale replaces slider with label. Can it be disabled slider
instead to reduce visual jumping (disabled slider prevents user
input)
Hopefully we'll still want to have collapsable box after re-iterating
over this points, so we don't waste bits in DNA.

This proposal attempts to improve usability of Blender's image stabilization
feature for real-world footage esp. with moving and panning camera. It builds
upon the feature tracking to get a measurement of 2D image movement.
- Use a weighted average of movement contributions (instead of a median).
- Allow for rotation compensation and zoom (image scale) compensation.
- Allow to pick a different set of tracks for translation and for
rotation/zoom.
- Treat translation / rotation / zoom contributions systematically in a
similar way.
- Improve handling of partial tracking data with gaps and varying
start / end points.
- Have a user definable anchor frame and interpolate / extrapolate data to
avoid jumping back to "neutral" position when no tracking data is available.
- Support for travelling and panning shots by including an //intended//
position/rotation/zoom ("target position"). The idea is for these parameters
to be //animated// by the user, in order to supply an smooth, intended
camera movement. This way, we can keep the image content roughly in frame
even when moving completely away from the initial view.
A known shortcoming is that the pivot point for rotation compensation is set to
the translation compensated image center. This can produce spurious rotation on
travelling shots, which needs to be compensated manually (by animating the
target rotation parameter). There are several possible ways to address that
problem, yet all of them are considered beyond the scope of this improvement
proposal for now.
Own modifications:
- Restrict line length, it's really handy for split-view editing
- In motion tracking we prefer fully human-readable comments, meaning we
don't use doxygen with it's weird markup and comments are supposed to
start with capital and end with a full stop,
- Add explicit comparison of pointer to NULL.

GPencil conversion would just always run for file version 2.77.3. This wasn't an issue in master, but possibly for other branches that used the 2.77.3 block.
Wasn't aware that you have to add the asterisk for pointers either, this is kinda weird. Anyway, it's running correctly now.
New dependency graph puts materials to the graph in order to deal with animation
assigned to them and things like that. This leads us to a requirement to update
relations when slots changes.
This fixes: T49075 Assignment of a keyframed material using the frame_change_pre handler
doesn't update the keyframe using the new dependency graph
All in all, this patch adds an Alembic importer, an Alembic exporter,
and a new CacheFile data block which, for now, wraps around an Alembic
archive. This data block is made available through a new modifier ("Mesh
Sequence Cache") as well as a new constraint ("Transform Cache") to
somewhat properly support respectively geometric and transformation data
streaming from alembic caches.
A more in-depth documentation is to be found on the wiki, as well as a
guide to compile alembic: https://wiki.blender.org/index.php/

Many thanks to everyone involved in this little project, and huge shout
out to "cgstrive" for the thorough testings with Maya, 3ds Max, Houdini
and Realflow as well as @fjuhec, @jensverwiebe and @jasperge for the
custom builds and compile fixes.

Initial report/patch by Alexander Gavrilov (@angavrilov), found more on the road.
Nice demo of why we should use libquery ID looper in read code too - but that's for another day
(also because read code needs to take care of some deprecated pointers sometimes)...
The flatten brush depended on accumulate being disabled,
Adding dynotopo support for accumulate caused problems for this tool (see T44390).
Enable for existing files.
- icon_id from ID and PreviewImage were not guaranteed to be in sync.
- PreviewImage one was not reset on file read.
- Through RNA e.g., it was possible to ensure an ID icon via its preview image,
which was running code designed for custom previews/icons system, instead
of generating correct 'auto ID icon'.
