# RotoCanvasPaint Development
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
You can feel free to use the code according to the license, but the project has been replaced by:
|
||||
|
||||
[rotocanvas](https://github.com/poikilos/rotocanvas)).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Known Issues
|
||||
* Audit & test `getLayerImagePathMostRecent`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Low-priority Known Issues
|
||||
* drawLineTo (this is used for painting) should draw line instead of
|
||||
last point
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Developer Notes
|
||||
The RotoCanvas class is modular, with hopes that it can be used by
|
||||
various video editing applications in the future. The recommended use
|
||||
of RotoCanvas in a video editing application is for applying effects
|
||||
(primarily manual rotoscoping) to source videos (as frame sequences) as
|
||||
a preprocessing step before they are trimmed or other effects are
|
||||
added, since rotoscoping is highly dependent on the source frame (base
|
||||
layer) remaining the same. Using the RotoCanvas as a post-processing
|
||||
effect is possible, but accurate frame seeking must be assured somehow
|
||||
(such as by a frame-accurate video editing engine), and further edits
|
||||
to the previous layers will in some cases cause the rotoscoped parts
|
||||
(parts of the image edited by RotoCanvas) to no longer make sense (such
|
||||
as, if a lens pinch effect is added to a scene where there was a layer
|
||||
order error that has been rotoscoped out, instead of the error being
|
||||
rotoscoped out, there will be both the error and a corrected blotch
|
||||
that is the error's original position & shape), which in such cases
|
||||
would require redoing the rotoscoping.
|
||||
|
||||
### Alternate names
|
||||
See "~/Nextcloud/d.cs/RotoCanvas/1.RotoCanvas (SEE GitHub instead).txt".
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### RotoCanvas Paint Notes
|
||||
* The save method is used by both the Save and the Save As actions. The
|
||||
save sender is pre-programmed with the format property
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Notes on Other Programs
|
||||
* In some programs, ss;ff denotes drop frame, and ss:ff denotes NON-drop
|
||||
frame.
|
||||
* mplayer is included in megui in the mencoder folder
|
||||
* Change aspect ratio flag:
|
||||
Use DVD Patcher, then test the result by dropping into Sony DVD
|
||||
Architect Studio to and playing (will play at specified aspect ratio)
|
||||
|
||||
### Get CLI Video Utilities on Windows
|
||||
(Command-line Interface)
|
||||
#### ffmpeg
|
||||
* Install WinFF and add C:\Program Files (x86)\WinFF\ffmpeg.exe to the
|
||||
PATH variable, or whatever path to which you installed it.
|
||||
- Or, download gui4ffmpeg and unzip it to C:\PortableApps\Video, and
|
||||
add C:\PortableApps\Video\gui4ffmpeg to your PATH variable.
|
||||
|
||||
#### mplayer & mencoder
|
||||
* Get **MPlayer for Windows** and add the MPlayer directory to your PATH
|
||||
variable. (If you have IntegratorEduImport, you can add
|
||||
`%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Projects\IntegratorEduImport\bin\MPlayer`
|
||||
to your PATH).
|
||||
- or download and unzip **megui** to `C:\PortableApps\Video` and add
|
||||
`C:\PortableApps\Video\megui\tools\mencoder` to your PATH.
