- Added some code for FFmpeg output that I'm still playing around with.
Right now I'm just trying to get it to output to file and try to
understand the FFmpeg/libav APIs. Hopefully in the future this plugin
can be used for any sort of output to FFmpeg.
- Fixed a cast warning in audio-io.c with size_t -> uint32_t
- Renamed the 'video_info' and 'audio_info' structures to
'video_conver_info' and 'audio_convert_info' to better represent their
actual purpose, and to avoid confusion with 'audio_output_info' and
'video_output_info' structures.
- Removed a few macros from obs-def.h that were at one point going to be
used but no longer going to be used (at least for now)
Completely revamped the entire media i/o data and handlers. The
original idea was to have a system that would have connecting media
inputs and outputs, but at a certain point I realized that this was an
unnecessary complexity for what we wanted to do. (Also, it reminded me
of directshow filters, and I HATE directshow with a passion, and
wouldn't wish it upon my greatest enemy)
Now, audio/video outputs are connected to directly, with better callback
handlers, and will eventually have the ability to automatically handle
conversions such as 4:4:4 to 4:2:0 when connecting to an input that uses
them. Doing this will allow the video/audio i/o handlers to also
prevent duplicate conversion, as well as make it easier/simple to use.
My true goal for this is to make output and encoder plugins as simple to
create as possible. I want to be able to be able to create an output
plugin with almost no real hassle of having to worry about image
conversions, media inputs/outputs, etc. A plugin developer shouldn't
have to handle that sort of stuff when he/she doesn't really need to.
Plugins will be able to simply create a callback via obs_video() and/or
obs_audio(), and they will automatically receive the audio/video data in
the formats requested via a simple callback, without needing to do
almost anything else at all.
