The "cbr" setting has been deprecated, so if the user is using that
setting for any of the encoders, convert it to set "rate_control" to
"CBR".
Additionally, if an encoder is using x264 with VBR and the buffer size
is set to 0, change the rate control mode to CRF.
This reverts commit cb24080d76.
This commit is being reverted due to the fact that it breaks common
dialogs such as the open/save file dialogs, the dialogs would cause the
UI thread to lock up.
The plugin that required this will have to be modified to accommodate
this situation.
Maps specifiers and accepts ones that work across multiple OSes.
On some systems, depending on locale, the specifier may resolve to an
empty string or nothing. GenerateSpecifiedFilename will avoid
conversion of the specifier if this happens, to help guard against this.
Implements transitions, and introduces "Studio Mode" which allows live
editing of the same or different scenes while preserving what's
currently being displayed.
Studio Mode offers a number of new features:
- The ability to edit different scenes or the same scene without
modifying what's currently being displayed (of course)
- The ability to set up "quick transitions" with a desired transition
and duration that can be assigned hotkeys
- The option to create full copies of all sources in the program scene
to allow editing of source properties of the same scene live without
modifying the output, or (by default) just use references. (Note
however that certain sources cannot be duplicated, such as capture
sources, media sources, and device sources)
- Swap Mode (enabled by default) which swaps the program scene with
the preview scene when a transition completes
Currently, only non-configurable transitions (transitions without
properties) are listed, and the only transitions available as of this
writing are fade and cut. In future versions more transitions will be
added, such as swipe, stingers, and many other various sort of
transitions, and the UI will support being able to add/configure/remove
those sort of configurable transitions.
OSX has an annoying feature called "BeamSync", which on later versions
of OSX is always on. For whatever reason, Apple devs decided to force
this feature to always be on, so applications must always render with
v-sync regardless of what they set their swap interval to.
This issue would cause syncing to the vertical refresh for each
additional active display, and wouldn't allow rendering above the
current refresh rate. This caused major rendering stalls and prevented
video frame timing from being accurate.
This fixes the issue by using an undocumented set of functions to
disable BeamSync. Note that because this is an undocumented method of
working around the issue, its existence cannot be guaranteed. If the
functions no longer exist for whatever reason, it will safely do
nothing.
Having sleep or screensavers inhibited at all times was causing some
annoyances for people. Sleep/screensavers are now only inhibited when
the program is active or when a projector is open.
This is mostly just to remove the unnecessary clutter from the output
sections. The reconnect settings are generally rarely modified by users
as it is.
Limits similar log entries (determined by a simple hash function that
sums the characters) to certain number of lines in a row. When a
different log entry occurs, it resets the repeat check and logs how many
times the last message was repeated.
API Changed:
---------------------------
From:
- bool obs_startup(const char *locale, profiler_name_store_t *store);
To:
- bool obs_startup(const char *locale, const char *module_config_path,
profiler_name_store_t *store);
Summary:
---------------------------
This allows plugin modules to store plugin-specific configuration data
(rather than only allowing objects to store configuration data). This
will be useful for things like caching data, for example looking up and
storing ingests from remote (rather than storing locally), or caching
font data (so it doesn't have to build a font cache each time), among
other things.
Also adds a module-specific directory for the UI
If a user was using FFmpeg output before pathc 0.12.0, they had to type
in the full file name to the FFmpeg output URL/Path box, which isn't
exactly compatible with the new settings.
This changes each profile's config file so that the FFmpeg output
detects whether files are used, and then extracts the file's directory
and extension and sets them accordingly to make it compatible with the
new FFmpeg file output handling.
Due to all the threads in libobs it wouldn't be safe to make that
parameter reconfigurable after libobs is initialized without adding
even more synchronization. On the other hand, adding a function to set
the name store before calling obs_startup would solve the problem of
passing a name store into libobs, but it can lead to more complicated
semantics for obs_get_profiler_name_store (e.g., should it always return
the current name store even if libobs isn't initialized until someone
calls set_name_store(NULL)? should obs_shutdown call
set_name_store(NULL)? Passing it as obs_startup parameter avoids
these (and hopefully other) potential misunderstandings
Now that we aren't dependent upon a window for our context, we can
safely move the obs context creation/destruction to obs-app.cpp, and use
the OBSContext helper class to automatically shut down obs.
Adds setting profiles to the basic user interface. For each profile, a
subdirectory for the profile will be created in
[config_dir]/obs-studio/basic/profiles which will contain the settings
data for each profile.
Adds scene collections to the menu bar, which allows you to duplicate,
rename, remove, or add clean new scene collections.
Scene files are now stored in ./obs-studio/basic/scenes directory with
filesystem-safe names.
Portable mode can be enabled via command line options (--portable or -p)
or by having any of the following files present in the base directory of
a portable install:
portable_mode
obs_portable_mode
portable_mode.txt
obs_portable_mode.txt
Portable mode is omitted when obs is built with a unix program
structure.
NoFocusFrameStyle was meant to disable focus frames around the scenes/sources
list (on OSX); unfortunately it also removed focus frames from controls that
should have focus frames like input boxes in the settings window
