* replace by BLI_snprintf in various places, note _snprintf on windows
does not properly null terminate the string.
* fix overflow in sequencer proxy code due to buffer being smaller than
specified size.
* fix some usage of snprintf as strcpy, this is will go wrong if the
string contains % characters.
* remove BLI_dynstr_printf function in gpu module, use BLI_dynstr_appendf
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.
* Pepper depends on ffmpeg 0.7.1 or higher now, windows and mac build systems set to ffmpeg-0.8
* Fixed orientation retrieval in OpenAL device code.
* Added stopAll() method to AUD_IDevice (also for Python) and call it on BGE exit
* Changed BGE to use audaspace via native C++ instead over the C API.
* Made AUD_SequencerFactory and AUD_SequencerEntry thread safe.
* Changed sound caching into a flag which fixes problems on file loading, especially with undo.
* Removed unused parameter from sound_mute_scene_sound
* Fixed bug: changing FPS didn't update the sequencer sound positions.
* Fixed bug: Properties of sequencer strips weren't set correctly.
* Minor warning fixes.
Implemented basic audio animation.
* AnimatableProperty: Propper cache writing and spline interpolation for reading (the solution for stair steps in audio animation)
* Animatable properties so far are: volume, pitch, panning
* Users note: Changing the pitch of a sound results in wrong seeking, due to the resulting playback length difference.
* Users note: Panning only works for mono sources, values are in the range [-2..2], this basically controls the angle of the sound, 0 is front, -1 left, 1 right and 2 and -2 are back. Typical stereo panning only supports [-1..1].
* Disabled animation of audio related ffmpeg output parameters.
* Scene Audio Panel: 3D Listener settings also for Renderer, new Volume property (animatable!), Update/Bake buttons for animation problems, moved sampling rate and channel count here
Main: Complete rewrite of the sequencer related audio code to support 3D Audio objects later and especially adressing the animation system problems (see mailing list if interested).
Note: Animation is not working yet, so with this commit volume animation doesn't work anymore, that's the next step.
Minor things:
* Changed AUD_Reference behaviour a little to be more usage safe.
* Fixed bug in AUD_I3DHandle: Missing virtual destructor
* Fixed enmus in AUD_Space.h
* Fixed a warning in rna_scene.c
* Removed an unneeded call in rna_sound.c
This fixes bug #26764 and several others like it, where modifier
properties (and others, but most visibly modifiers) would not do
anything when animated or driven, as modifier properties require the
RNA update calls to tag the modifiers to get recalculated.
While just adding a call to RNA_property_update() could have gotten
this working (as per the Campbell's patch attached in the report, and
also my own attempt #25881). However, on production rigs, the
performance cost of this is untenatable (on my own tests, without
these updates, I was getting ~5fps on such a rig, but only 0.9fps or
possibly even worse with the updates added).
Hence, this commit adds a property-update caching system to the RNA
level, which aims to reduce to the number of times that the update
functions end up needing to get called.
While this is much faster than without the caching, I also added an
optimisation for pose bones (which are numerous in production rigs) so
that their property updates are skipped, since they are useless to the
animsys (they only tag the depsgraph for updating). This gets things
moving at a more acceptable framerate.
This commit adds an experimental effect strip to the sequencer: "Title
Card".
This is useful for adding simple one-line text section headers or
"title cards" (i.e. title + author/contact details) to video clips,
which is often seen in demo videos accompanying papers and/or
animation tests.
See http://aligorith.blogspot.com/2011/06/gsoc11-simple-title-
cards.html for some more details on usage.
Code notes:
- There are a few things I've done here which will probably need
cleaning up. For instance, the hacks to get threadsafe fonts for
rendering, and also the way I've tried to piggyback the backdrop
drawing on top of the Solid Colour strips (this method was used to
keep changes here minimal, but is quite fragile if things change).
This fixes one part of [#27353] VSE crashes on large M4V
StripData was alloced in full length for MOVIE and SOUND-tracks, which only
use the first element for filename storage. (StripData as an array is only
used in IMAGE strips).
Fixed the crash and documented accordingly.
This patch adds adjustment layer tracks to the sequencer and does some cleaning
up of the code.
What's an adjustment layer?
Think of it as an effect track, which takes no explicit input, but alters
the output of everything down the layer stack.
So: you can add several stages of color correction with it.
And: you can even use it with metastrips to group several adjustments together.
Fixes Fix for [#25713] VSE shows and renders wrong straight alpha gradient even after convert to pr
(see revision: 34540, fix by Janne)
By not breaking the seqcache interface API.
Added comments to header file, so that it is easier to understand, how the
cache API is supposed to work.
was not recursively restoring sound strips on paste.
also found many duplicate functions were defining the transform mode as in int but getting as an enum, use enum for both now.
we cant ensure that a requested buffer can be allocated so report opengl errors when failing to allocate the buffer (rather then printing to console).
this is common enough and generic error isn't too helpful to users.
Was trying to free audio data from sequencer strips that don't even have audio. Corrected the error in several ways so this will definitely not happen again :-)
- use NULL rather then 0 where possible (makes code & function calls more readable IMHO).
- set static variables and functions (exposed some unused vars/funcs).
- use func(void) rather then func() for definitions.
* Caching of the start and end stills were just referencing the original imbuf (which got premultiplied after the caching), so as a result most of the time the premul was applied twice.
* Now the start and end stills are stored in the cache as duplicates of the original (non modified) imbuf.
