Replace fixed Arial, 7 px meter scale font with the font used
for VolumeMeter/QWidget. Add qproperties for meter bar thickness and
a scaling factor for the meter scale numbers. If not specified in a
QSS, defaults are 3 pixel bar width and 80% of base font size.
This commit fixes various issues with screen readers in the main OBS
interface. These were tested using NVDA on Windows 10 2004.
Audio track selection in Settings now says Track 1, 2, etc, rather than
just the number.
Various checkboxes that just say "Enable" now have accessible text that
says what the enable is for (since it says "checkbox", the fact it's an
enable should hopefully be clear).
Type in the recording tab of output now has accessible text which says
"Recording Type".
Items in the Advanced Audio Properties window now have accessible text
for what they are for. Currently some do not report correct values, but
that will require an accessible interface in Qt to be written
specifically for that, which will be done at a later date.
Buttons in the filters window now have accessible text for what they do.
All the right side buttons in hotkeys now have tooltips, and by
extension, accessible text.
The VolumeMeter widgets were apparently being drawn as transparent
widgets, which meant that it was necessary to redraw everything under
the widgets in order to properly draw the widgets, so the entire mixer
section of the window was being redrawn every time the meters updated.
This caused a significant perf hit when the only thing wanted/desired
was just to update the meters. This was more noticeable after changing
the audio meter update rate to 60hz from 30hz.
The fix is to simply mark them as opaque widgets, and paint the
background ourselves rather than rely on what's under the window. CPU
perf for painting the main window has been vastly improved because of
this; CPU usage of Qt in the main window is now reduced by at least half
of what it was, if not more.
This reverts commit b5843caa484068d6fcc5f5fe8ee2dc06078500ff.
This breaks some hotkeys because the signals are tied to a signal which
is now triggered because "toggled" is used instead of "clicked", so just
revert it for now for the release and look at it later post-patch.
This commit fixes various issues with screen readers in the main OBS
interface. These were tested using NVDA on Windows 10 1903.
Checkboxes or buttons which toggle, when receiving an activate signal
from the screen reader would visually update, but not perform any
action. This is because they're listening only for clicks. They should
all now be listening for toggles instead.
The screen reader would navigate through the UI in the order that
elements are defined in the .ui XML, and not by their row positions.
The XML has been reordered so that things should be defined in their row
order.
Audio track selection now says Track 1, 2, etc, rather than just the
number. Various checkboxes that just say "Enable" now have accessible
text that says what the enable is for (since it says "checkbox", the
fact it's an enable should hopefully be clear). Type in the recording
tab of output now has accessible text which says "Recording Type".
All the right side buttons in hotkeys now have tooltips, and by
extension, accessible text. Currently it does not yet say what hotkey
the action is in relation to, but that would require more locales.
Code submissions have continually suffered from formatting
inconsistencies that constantly have to be addressed. Using
clang-format simplifies this by making code formatting more consistent,
and allows automation of the code formatting so that maintainers can
focus more on the code itself instead of code formatting.
For the "ignore wheel" widgets, do not leave focus on mouse leave
events. This causes unintended side effects such as not being able to
type in edit boxes, and is very annoying.
This commit fixes the issue of being able to scroll through the mixer
with the mouse wheel without modifying the volume slider. This
functionality can be temporarily restored by holding a click on the
volume meter.
A mono input with surround output is upmixed by swresampler by routing
it to FC (front center) by default which corresponds to third channel
for 3.0, 4.0, 4.1, 5.0, 5.1, 7.1. (The other channels are muted.)
But the volume meters are set to show the first channel for mono sources.
Therefore although audio is processed, it would not show on the meter.
This fixes this display issue.

Add a new algorithm to calculate the true-peak. It implements the
Whittaker- Shannon interpolation from four samples to create 4
intermediate samples (5 x oversampling) inbetween the middle two
samples.
With 4 samples and 4 intermediate samples the algorithm can be
implemented as a 4x4 vector-matrix cross product, which is ideal for
SSE.
I've also replaced the sample-peak algorithm using SSE as well to
improve performance.

Audio controls in OBS Mixer and Advanced Audio Properties window are not
sorted at all. Every time OBS is restarted they get shuffled (Jim note:
This is due to json object hashing). The order of these controls is
additionally not consistent between the mixer and the advanced audio
properties window.

The decay rate of the audio meters can now be selected in the audio
settings. The values are:
- "Fast" (OBS default, 40 dB / 1.7s)
- "Medium" (Type I PPM, 20 dB / 1.7s)
- "Slow" (Type II PPM, 24 dB / 2.8s)
Closesjp9000/obs-studio#1143
Before the new volume meters were implemented, the meter would flash red
if the audio was clipping. This functionality was removed when the
meters were changed, whether intentionally or unintentionally, and this
patch puts that functionality back in. If clipping occurs, the meters
will be fully colored with the foregroundErrorColor value while the
clipping is occurring.
The following features have been added to the audio-meters:
* Stereo PPM-level meter, with 40 dB/1.7s decay rate.
* Stereo VU-level meter, with 300 ms integration time.
* Stereo Peak-hold meter, with 20 second sustain.
* Input peak level color-squares in front of every meter.
* Minor-ticks for each dB.
* Major-ticks for every 5 dB.
* Meter is divided in sections at -20 dB and -9 dB.
The ballistic parameters chosen here where taken from:
* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_programme_meter (SMPTE RP.0155)
* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VU_meter
In the rework I have removed any ballistic calculations from
libobs/obs-audio-controls.c making the calculations here a lot more
simple doing only MAX and RMS calculations for only the samples in
the current update. The actual ballistics are now done by just
the UI/volume-control.cpp because ballistics need to be updated
based on the repaint-rate of the user-interface.
The dB to pixel conversion has been moved from
libobs/obs-audio-controls.c to UI/volume-control.cpp as well to reduce
coupling between these two objects, especially when implementing the
major- and minor-ticks and the sections.
All colors and ballistic parameters are adjustable via QT style sheets.
There are slight differences in colors for each of the themes.
With the addition of the peak volume indicator, themes may wish to change
these colors but there was no way to do so. This change updates the
VolumeControl widget to allow a stylesheet to adjust all possible colors
for the volume bar. In addtion, the Rachni theme is updated to demonstrate
this new capability.
