Because we're using .ini format, the translation servies spit out files
with .ini extensions, so this makes it so we don't necessarily have to
rename those files from .ini to .txt before merging.
The status bar now displays:
- Auto-reconnect information (reconnecting and reconnect success)
- Dropped frames (as well as percentage of total video frames)
- Duration of session
- CPU usage of the program
- Kbp/s
The OBSBasic class is getting a bit big, so I separated out the
status bar code to its own class derived from QStatusBar.
Contains Move Up, Move Down, Move to Top, Move to Bottom. Also assigns
Ctrl-Up, Ctrl-Down, Ctrl-Home, Ctrl-End to each action.
This was also added to the right-click context menu popup for sources.
There's no reason to represent this value in terms of scale. Scale is a
useless value for users to use. What are they going to enter, 0.5?
2.0? 0.25?
Even if it can be subject to change by the source itself, and even if
it's still converted to scale internally, having it display the base
source size value is much more ideal for the user.
So, scene editing was interesting (and by interesting I mean
excruciating). I almost implemented 'manipulator' visuals (ala 3dsmax
for example), and used 3 modes for controlling position/rotation/size,
but in a 2D editing, it felt clunky, so I defaulted back to simply
click-and-drag for movement, and then took a similar though slightly
different looking approach for handling scaling and reszing.
I also added a number of menu item helpers related to positioning,
scaling, rotating, flipping, and resetting the transform back to
default.
There is also a new 'transform' dialog (accessible via menu) which will
allow you to manually edit every single transform variable of a scene
item directly if desired.
If a scene item does not have bounds active, pulling on the sides of a
source will cause it to resize it via base scale rather than by the
bounding box system (if the source resizes that scale will apply). If
bounds are active, it will modify the bounding box only instead.
How a source scales when a bounding box is active depends on the type of
bounds being used. You can set it to scale to the inner bounds, the
outer bounds, scale to bounds width only, scale to bounds height only,
and a setting to stretch to bounds (which forces a source to always draw
at the bounding box size rather than be affected by its internal size).
You can also set it to be used as a 'maximum' size, so that the source
doesn't necessarily get scaled unless it extends beyond the bounds.
Like in OBS1, objects will snap to the edges unless the control key is
pressed. However, this will now happen even if the object is rotated or
oriented in any strange way. Snapping will also occur when stretching
or changing the bounding box size.
Implement the 'file path' in output settings, and implement the 'start
recording' button, though for the time being I'm just going to make it
use a directory rather than allow custom file names.
This file output will actually share the video and audio encoder with
the stream.
I don't really know what to do about MP4 -- I don't really like the idea
of saving directly in the program, if you do and the program crashes,
that MP4 file is lost. I'm contemplating making some sort of mp4 output
process stub. So no MP4 file output for the time being.
If you need MP4, just remux it with FFmpeg:
ffmpeg -i flv_file.flv -acodec copy -vcodec copy mp4_file.mp4
Added github gist API uploading to the help menu to help make problems a
bit easier to debug in the future. It's somewhat vital that this
functionality be implemented before any release in order to analyze any
given problem a user may be experiencing.
Add a 'source selection' dialog to replace the 'enter a name' dialog.
This new dialog allows you to make new instances of pre-existing sources
so that you can add a pre-existing source to a different scene, or in to
the same scene more than once.
Also started implementing locale.
Comtemplating switching to JSON-based locale later, so we can add things
like descriptions/disambiguation, and so we can use jansson's built-in
hash table when doing the string lookup.
