This allows the changing of bideo settings without having to completely
reset all graphics data. Will recreate internal output/conversion
buffers and such and reset the main preview.
Turns out that on some adapters, due to some sort of internal GPU
precision error, fmod(x, y) can return x when x == y, wich is incorrect
(and no, they were actually equal, not off due to precision errors).
This would cause the shader to sample wrong coordinates on the edges
sometimes. Just adding 0.1 to the x value before being put in to fmod
and then flooring the result after fixes the issue.
- Changed glMapBuffer to glMapBufferRange to allow invalidation. Using
just glMapBuffer alone was causing some unacceptable stalls.
- Changed dynamic buffers from GL_DYNAMIC_WRITE to GL_STREAM_WRITE
because I had misunderstood the OpenGL specification
- Added _OPENGL and _D3D11 builtin preprocessor macros to effects to
allow special processing if needed
- Added fmod support to shaders (NOTE: D3D and GL do not function
identically with negative numbers when using this. Positive numbers
however function identically)
- Created a planar conversion shader that converts from packed YUV to
planar 420 right on the GPU without any CPU processing. Reduces
required GPU download size to approximately 37.5% of its normal rate
as well. GPU usage down by 10 entire percentage points despite the
extra required pass.
The API used to be designed in such a way to where it would expect
exports for each individual source/output/encoder/etc. You would export
functions for each and it would automatically load those functions based
on a specific naming scheme from the module.
The idea behind this was that I wanted to limit the usage of structures
in the API so only functions could be used. It was an interesting idea
in theory, but this idea turned out to be flawed in a number of ways:
1.) Requiring exports to create sources/outputs/encoders/etc meant that
you could not create them by any other means, which meant that
things like faruton's .net plugin would become difficult.
2.) Export function declarations could not be checked, therefore if you
created a function with the wrong parameters and parameter types,
the compiler wouldn't know how to check for that.
3.) Required overly complex load functions in libobs just to handle it.
It makes much more sense to just have a load function that you call
manually. Complexity is the bane of all good programs.
4.) It required that you have functions of specific names, which looked
and felt somewhat unsightly.
So, to fix these issues, I replaced it with a more commonly used API
scheme, seen commonly in places like kernels and typical C libraries
with abstraction. You simply create a structure that contains the
callback definitions, and you pass it to a function to register that
definition (such as obs_register_source), which you call in the
obs_module_load of the module.
It will also automatically check the structure size and ensure that it
only loads the required values if the structure happened to add new
values in an API change.
The "main" source file for each module must include obs-module.h, and
must use OBS_DECLARE_MODULE() within that source file.
Also, started writing some doxygen documentation in to the main library
headers. Will add more detailed documentation as I go.
- Implement texture scaling/conversion/downloading for the main view so
we can finally start getting data to output.
Also, redesign how it works a bit, it will now properly wait one full
frame for each step in the process: rendering the main texture,
scaling the main texture to an output texture, staging/downloading the
ouput texture, and then outputting that staged data. This way, the
GPU will have more than enough time to fully complete each step.
- Fix a bug with OpenGL plugin's texture staging function. Was using
glBindBuffer instead of what should have been used: glBindTexture.
- Change the naming scheme of the variables in default.effect. It's now
named with the idea of just "color matrix" in mind instead of "yuv
matrix", and instead of DrawRGBToYUV, it's now just DrawMatrix.
- Move over the last of the original settings dialog code to QT. It was
actually a bit easier to write in the QT version. wxWidgets was
definitely not ideal for that because the pages would fully
create/destroy every time.
- [Win32] Fix os_dlopen so that it only appends .dll if not present
- [MacOS] Fix name dialog text edit widget issue (it would be better if
we could just use the list widget for editing labels, will have to
look in to that in the future)
- Tweak the settings UI a bit more and make 30 FPS default
- Add a macro to convert a QString to a UTF-8 const char * string
- Rename build/plugins to build/obs-plugins
- Remove the last of the wxWidgets code
I added gl-x11 which allows compatibility with X11 (Xlib-based) and GLX.
I also added various functions to handle file finding based on FHS.
Various changes to autotools to both install files correctly and to configure correctly.
