Certain types of sources (display captures, game captures, audio
device captures, video device captures) should not be duplicated. This
capability flag hints that the source prefers references over full
duplication.
Microphones and other input devices can often have bad or erroneous
timestamps. Although we handle bad timestamps much better in
obs-studio, there are still lingering issues that can crop up from time
to time with device QPC timestamps that leads to mic data not playing
back properly. It's best if it be off by default rather than on, which
will now cause it to use system timestamps for input devices by default.
This changes it to the same handling as OBS1 for this case.
API changed from:
obs_source_info::get_name(void)
obs_output_info::get_name(void)
obs_encoder_info::get_name(void)
obs_service_info::get_name(void)
API changed to:
obs_source_info::get_name(void *type_data)
obs_output_info::get_name(void *type_data)
obs_encoder_info::get_name(void *type_data)
obs_service_info::get_name(void *type_data)
This allows the type data to be used when getting the name of the
object (useful for plugin wrappers primarily).
NOTE: Though a parameter was added, this is backward-compatible with
older plugins due to calling convention. The new parameter will simply
be ignored by older plugins, and the stack (if used) will be cleaned up
by the caller.
Hopefully we can get this function merged for mingw-w64 4.1. As for the
4.0 release, adding a new header is a big change, it'll have to wait for
the next version.
Typedef pointers are unsafe. If you do:
typedef struct bla *bla_t;
then you cannot use it as a constant, such as: const bla_t, because
that constant will be to the pointer itself rather than to the
underlying data. I admit this was a fundamental mistake that must
be corrected.
All typedefs that were pointer types will now have their pointers
removed from the type itself, and the pointers will be used when they
are actually used as variables/parameters/returns instead.
This does not break ABI though, which is pretty nice.
This functionality can now be handled automatically because locale can
now be freed seaparately from obs_module_unload with
obs_module_free_locale, which is called automatically when the module is
being freed.
Instead of using strings for setting names, use macros. Macros prevent
mis-spellings, prevent usage of the wrong name, and if you get it wrong,
it will simply fail to compile, helping to ensure that the right setting
value is being used.
The locale parameter was a mistake, because it puts extra needless
burden upon the module developer to have to handle this variable for
each and every single callback function. The parameter is being removed
in favor of a single centralized module callback function that
specifically updates locale information for a module only when needed.
Having the value stored here is somewhat pointless, so this is one step
in fixing the locale handling. Locale should be handled by the modules
themselves with their own loaded locale lookup information.
Character conversion functions did not previously ask for a maximum
buffer size for their 'dst' parameter, it's unsafe to assume some given
destination buffer may have enough size to accommodate a conversion.
Improve the properties API so that it can actually respond somewhat to
user input. Maybe later this might be further improved or replaced with
something script-based.
When creating a property, you can now add a callback to that property
that notifies when the property has been changed in the user interface.
Return true if you want the properties to be refreshed, or false if not.
Though now that I think about it I doubt there would ever be a case
where you would have this callback and *not* refresh the properties.
Regardless, this allows functions to change the values of properties or
settings, or enable/disable/hide other property controls from view
dynamically.
- Add a properties window for sources so that you can now actually edit
the settings for sources. Also, display the source by itself in the
window (Note: not working on mac, and possibly not working on linux).
When changing the settings for a source, it will call
obs_source_update on that source when you have modified any values
automatically.
- Add a properties 'widget', eventually I want to turn this in to a
regular nice properties view like you'd see in the designer, but
right now it just uses a form layout in a QScrollArea with regular
controls to display the properties. It's clunky but works for the
time being.
- Make it so that swap chains and the main graphics subsystem will
automatically use at least one backbuffer if none was specified
- Fix bug where displays weren't added to the main display array
- Make it so that you can get the properties of a source via the actual
pointer of a source/encoder/output in addition to being able to look
up properties via identifier.
- When registering source types, check for required functions (wasn't
doing it before). getheight/getwidth should not be optional if it's
a video source as well.
- Add an RAII OBSObj wrapper to obs.hpp for non-reference-counted
libobs pointers
- Add an RAII OBSSignal wrapper to obs.hpp for libobs signals to
automatically disconnect them on destruction
- Move the "scale and center" calculation in window-basic-main.cpp to
its own function and in its own source file
- Add an 'update' callback to WASAPI audio sources
- Fix a bug where the initial audio data insertion would cause all
audio data to unintentionally clear (mixed up < and > operators, damn
human error)
- Fixed a potential interdependant lock scenario with channel mutex
locks and graphics mutex locks. The main video thread could lock the
graphics mutex and then while in the graphics mutex could lock the
channels mutex. Meanwhile in another thread, the channel mutex could
get locked, and then the graphics mutex would get locked, causing a
deadlock.
The best way to deal with this is to not let mutexes lock within
other mutexes, but sometimes it's difficult to avoid such as in the
main video thread.
- Audio devices should now be functional, and the devices in the audio
settings can now be changed as desired.
- Implement a means of obtaining default settings for an
input/output/encoder. obs_source_defaults for example will return
the default settings for a particular source type.
- Because C++ doesn't have designated initializers, use functions in
the WASAPI plugin to register the sources instead.
