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.
This enables Blender to;
- have scenes with different codec settings. (same as avicodec)
- render directly without dialog.
- batch/background render to Quicktime movies.
Only tested on windows. ;)
#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
