Instead of having ffmpeg-mux stored in a data directory, install it to
the primary binary directory. On windows, this fixes ffmpeg-mux
potentially accessing the wrong FFmpeg libraries (some programs install
them to system32, foolishly), and instead ensures that it uses the ones
that come with the program. On Linux, ensures that a binary is in its
appropriate directory (/usr/bin or /usr/local/bin rather than a subset
of /usr/share or /usr/local/share).
(This commit also modifies the following modules: UI,
deps/media-playback, coreaudio-encoder, decklink, linux-alsa,
linux-pulseaudio, mac-capture, obs-ffmpeg, obs-filters, obs-libfdk,
obs-outputs, win-dshow, and win-wasapi)
Adds surround sound audio support to the core, core plugins, and user
interface.
Compatible streaming services: Twitch, FB 360 live
Compatible protocols: rtmp / mpeg-ts tcp udp
Compatible file formats: mkv mp4 ts (others untested)
Compatible codecs: ffmpeg aac, fdk_aac, CoreAudio aac,
opus, vorbis, pcm (others untested).
Tested streaming servers: wowza, nginx
HLS, mpeg-dash : surround passthrough
Html5 players tested with live surround:
videojs, mediaelement, viblast (hls+dash), hls.js
Decklink: on win32, swap channels order for 5.1 7.1
(due to different channel mapping on wav, mpeg, ffmpeg)
Audio filters: surround working.
Monitoring: surround working (win macOs linux (pulse-audio)).
VST: stereo plugins keep in general only the first two channels.
surround plugins should work (e.g. mcfx does).
OS: win, macOs, linux (alsa, pulse-audio).
Misc: larger audio bitrates unlocked to accommodate more channels
NB: mf-aac only supports mono and stereo + 5.1 on win 10
(not implemented due to lack of usefulness)
Closesjp9000/obs-studio#968
(This commit also modifies the deps/media-playback, obs-ffmpeg, and
win-dshow modules)
More fixes due to ffmpeg renaming some constants and deprecating
AVFMT_RAWPICTURE and AV_PIX_FMT_VDA_VLD.
Latter replaced by AV_PIX_FMT_VIDEOTOOLBOX per ffmpeg dev advice.
Closesjp9000/obs-studio#1061
On windows, if you were saving a file name or directory with characters
that are not of the current windows character set, it could cause the
file saving process to fail. This fixes it so that on windows it uses
wmain and converts the unicode command line to a UTF-8 command line,
which works with FFmpeg.
