This commit adds new timecode type which counts frames in gapless mode (counting
actually decoded frames instead of using pts to find frame number) which might
resolve issues with files which have got broken or incorrect base time value stored
in the header.
This timecode allows to deal with movies from #29388: Abnormal frame length on MP4 files
- Display running job template in all sequencer modes
It was displayed only for sequencer mode without preview.
- Fixed proxy rebuild progress indicator
It was alsways zero because of incorrect rounding.
- Fixed timecode saving on windows (and probably some other platforms)
It was caused by incorrect opening file for writting -- it should
be opened in binary format "wb". This error caused incorrect
movie duration detection on windows.
- Fixed movie resolution detection for some movies.
In file attached to report, Blender detected resolution 1920x1088
instead of 1920x1080. Not sure if this fix is correct or it's
issue in FFmpeg, but it's something what mplayer using: store
width/height before running avcodec_open().
- Fixed frame number calculation when building timecodes.
It was rounding error caused some frames be positioned incorrect
in several cases (that each 6th frame rendered as next frame
from report).
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.
