It appears there's a projection flip that is applied in some situations,
like the preview pane in studio mode, and the shader math fails when
it's active causing the output color to be zero. This fixes the math for
GLSL (with a tiny redundancy penalty to HLSL), and cleans up some
unnecessary code along the way.
Use abs() to avoid zero area in case the OpenGL projection flip is
active. Also simplify the math, and remove the unnecessary sampler
state.
This new scale filter computes pixels by weighing the coverage area of
source pixels over the target pixel. This algorithm works well for both
upsampling and downsampling, but was mainly designed to upscale
high-quality low-resolution sources like RGB/HDMI retro consoles. I've
heard of people using odd workarounds like scaling up to very high
resolutions before scaling back down to preserve pixel shartpness. This
algorithm directly addresses this use-case in a much more direct
fashion.
The Area scale filter does a better job of preserving the thickness of
thin features than the Point filter.
The Area scale filter does not look at source pixels that lie outside
of the target pixel, leading to a much sharper image than Bilinear,
Bicubic, and Lanczos filters.
This filter should interpolate pixels in linear space, but OBS is not
equipped to do that at the moment.
libobs: Add GPU effect, and wire up scene serialization.
obs-filters: Add Area as an option for scale_filter.
UI: Add Area as an option for both scene items, and canvas downscaling.
For those resolutions the last two chroma samples of every other
line would be overwritten by the last chroma samples of the previous
line (depending on sampler used), producing artifacts on the left
edge of the resulting image (e.g. any color present on the right
edge of the image would "bleed" to every other line on
the left edge)
libobs' shader language is basically HLSL, and tex.Load uses an int3 for
2D textures, with texture mipmap index for the last component. This bug
bypassed testing because the front-end automatically switches to OpenGL
if D3D11 initialization fails, and when converted to GLSL, works fine
because texelFetch only requires two components. This also means
there's a bug in GLSL shader conversion code, because it's essentially
ignoring the third component when it shouldn't be.
Eventually, most things should be replaced with Load where applicable
(though in some cases sub-pixel sampling is desired).
This commit also fixes a bug where NV12 async sources wouldn't render
correctly.
This algorithm reduces scaling distortion on the center of the image
when scaling from ultrawide to wide.
(Jim: edited effect files to prevent an impact in performance for
standard scaling. Now effectively generates an extra pixel shader, and
the extra code is only applied to the DrawUndistort technique, while the
original Draw technique is unaffected due to the compiler automatically
removing unused code branches via the hard-coded boolean value)
From jp9000/obs-studio#762
The field orders of retro 2x and linear 2x deinterlace shaders were
inverted. Note that yadif 2x does not act the same in this regard, its
field ordering is correct due to how it operates.
Adds deinterlacing API functions. Both standard and 2x variants are
supported. Deinterlacing is set via obs_source_set_deinterlace_mode and
obs_source_set_deinterlace_field_order.
This was implemented in to the core itself because deinterlacing should
happen before effect filters are processed, but after async filters are
processed. If this were added as a filter, there is the possibility
that a different filter is processed before deinterlacing, which could
mess with the result. It was also a bit easier to implement this way
due to the fact that that deinterlacing may need to have access to the
previous async frame.
Effects were split in to separate files to reduce load time (especially
for yadif shaders which take a significant amount of time to compile).
(Note: This commit also modifies obs-filters and text-freetype2)
This simplifies writing of effects. DrawMatrix is no longer necessary
because there are no sources that require drawing with a color matrix
other than async sources, and async sources are automatically processed
and don't defer their initial render stage to filters.
The bilinear lowres scale effect was using 'output' for a variable,
which is apparently a reserved keyword in GLSL on macs. This slipped
by me due to the fact that this didn't occur with OpenGL on my windows
machine.
When render targets are used, they output to the render target inverted
due to the way that opengl works. This fixes that issue by inverting
the projection matrix so that it renders the image upside down and
inverting the front face from counterclockwise to clockwise.
Refer to https://www.opengl.org/registry/doc/GLSLangSpec.4.10.6.clean.pdf
for a list of current (reserved) keywords.
In the future the shader compiler in libobs-opengl should probably take
care of avoiding those name conflicts (bonus points for transparently
remapping the names of effect parameters)
This adds bicubic and lanczos scaling capability to libobs to improve
scaling quality and sharpness when the output resolution has to be
scaled relative to the base resolution. Bilinear is also available,
although bilinear has rather poor quality and causes scaling to appear
blurry.
If the output resolution is close to the base resolution, then bilinear
is used instead as an optimization, as there's no need to use these
shaders if scaling is not in use.
The Bicubic and Lanczos effects are also exposed via exported function
to allow the ability to use those shaders in plugin modules if desired.
The API change adds a variable 'scale_type' to the obs_video_info
structure that allows the user interface to choose what type of scaling
filter should be used.
Just for a quick background: D3D's fmod intrinsic is very imprecise.
Naturally floating points aren't precise at all, and when the numbers
you're dealing with become very large, it can often be off by 0.1 or
more.
However, apparently 0.1 isn't enough of an offset to ensure a proper
value when using the fmod intrinsic and then flooring the value. 0.2
seems to fix the issue and make the image display properly.
