After discussion with Campbell we found much nicer solution which
keeps operation with data much more clear:
- Refresh Sequencer is totally harmless, do not touch actual data
and just removes everything from cache
- Reload Strip will reload data and adjust it's length for all
selected strips without affecting on length of strip itself
- Reload Strip and Adjust length will do the same but will also
adjust length of strip itself.
This adds movieclip input support to the sequencer, thereby making
undistorted and stabilized footage available without a seperate render step.
Also: removes some old cruft code from the sequencer:
* new_tstripdata wasn't used anymore
* StripElems were allocated for SCENE strips on full length, wasting memory
Added a comment, that hopefully makes things a little bit clearer:
StripElems are *only* usefull for MOVIE + IMAGE strips for all other strip
types one can set this pointer to NULL. (If that should cause otherwise
problems, then the code that doesn't check for NULL is to blame!)
added some missing functions too - which are not used yep but should be there for api completeness.
* CDDM_set_mloop
* CDDM_set_mpoly
* BLI_mempool_count
Split proxy build operator into three parts:
- Prepare context (IMB_anim_index_rebuild_context) which prepares all
needed data and stores it in an anonymous structure used by specific
builder lately.
- Build proxies/timecodes into temporary files (IMB_anim_index_rebuild)
This function will build all selected proxies/timecodes into a temporary
files so old proxies will be still available during building.
- Finish building proxies (IMB_anim_index_rebuild_finish) which copies
temporary files over old proxies filed and releases all resources used
by a context.
Context creation and finishing building happens in a main thread so
it's easy and safe to close all opened handles of proxies files and
refresh cache after rebuilding is finished.
This should finally fix#30315: Temporary proxy files are not erased and old proxys are not updated if the proxy is built more then once (windows)
This commit extends limit of ID and objects to 64 (it means 63 meaning
characters and 1 for zero-terminator). CustomData layers names are also
extended.
Changed DNA structures and all places where length constants were hardcoded.
All names which are "generating" from ID block should be limited by MAX_ID_NAME-2,
all non-id names now has got own define called MAX_NAME which should be used all
over for non-id names to make further name migration stuff easier.
All name fields in DNA now have comment with constant which corresponds to
hardcoded numeric value which should make it easier to further update this
limits or even switch to non-hardcoded values in DNA.
Special thanks to Campbell who helped figuring out some issues and helped a lot
in finding all cases where hardcoded valued were still used in code.
Both of forwards and backwards compatibility is stored with blender versions newer
than January 5, 2011. Older versions had issue with placing null-terminator to
DNA strings on file load which will lead to some unpredictable behavior or even
crashes.
"The Blender Foundation also sells licenses for use in proprietary software under the Blender Licens"
also remove NaN references from files that have been added since blender went opensource.
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.
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 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.
* documented and rewrote the render interface of the sequencer.
(now, the geometry / render_type / etc. settings are stored within a
seperate structure called SeqRenderData that is passed within the code.)
* that fixes
* cache problems, since the caching system didn't keep track of
proxy files vs. final renders.
* is a necessary step, to bring back frame blending in speed effect
(the SeqRenderData structure elements are already there)
* will make motion blur render options available within the sequencer!
* this patch also fixes:
* "easy retiming" using speed effects. (in Blender 2.49, you could
add a speed effect and resize the source track to retime it to that
length)
* adds labels for the Original dimensions for Image + Movie tracks
(worked in 2.49, too)
also known as: broken multicam strip caused by other fix.
Calculated render_size where it belongs (within the glow effect) and
restored old functionality.
also: renamed render_size to preview_render_size at all relevant places,
where the naming wasn't used correctly.
Hopefully it's now a little bit more clear.
render_size := render size from scene (just rescales width/height)
preview_render_size := preview render size from sequencer preview,
controls the resolution and the use of sequencer proxy sources
* The logic in some parts of the sequencer code was rather cryptic, so I cleaned it up a bit.
* There should be no functional changes what so ever from these changes.
Some cleanup on effects:
- converted interface to float cfra
- made effects return their own ImBufs, which has the following
advantages:
* code in sequencer.c is a lot more readable.
* multicam saves one memcpy of an image
* prepares things for GPU-rendering
This patch cleans up the sequencer core by replacing the caching system
(TStripElems) with a hash based system, which is:
a) a lot faster
b) a lot more readable
c) a lot more memory conserving
The new caching system is also a good building ground for
a) sub frame precision rendering (even on scene strips)
b) multi core rendering (threaded rendering is still disabled, but can
be extended now to arbitrary core numbers)
I tested the code on an extensive editing session today and had no
crashes during 4 hours of editing. So I consider it very stable.
Bugfix: free_imbuf_seq() was closing IMB anim handles on nearly every
change of RNA variables. This can be *very* slow, if you twiddle with
parameters during playback. Especially multicam editing...
Now: we close IMB anim handles only on refresh_all() and filepath
changes.
- python change, dont import 'bpy' by default, initially I thaught this would make scripting easier but it ends up being annoying when you want to register a script or if you want to import it. (more trouble then its worth to save 1 line, also not very pythonic).
- bugfix for copying a scene with FFMPEG properties set (wasnt copying the ID properties, could crash blender)
- relative path option for adding sequence strips and replaceing images.
- Remove SEQ_DESEL, better not have a flag which includes ~, use ~SEQ_ALLSEL instead.
- Rename recurs_dupli_seq -> seqbase_dupli_recursive
- Rename deep_dupli_seq -> seq_dupli_recursive
