Allows a properties view control to be created only with an identifier
string instead of only being created with a pointer to an object. This
way, we don't necessarily have to have an object for some arbitrary
settings we want the user to be able to modify.
I feel like due to lack of user understanding, it's important to specify
that the higher the preset is (veryfast/superfast/ultrafast) the less
CPU that the encoder will use
I didn't think it would ever need to be exported, but this function is
actually useful for applying settings to properties (to call all of
their update callbacks based upon the settings) without necessarily
having to have an object associated with it.
Add CBR, CRF to properties so that it can be changed by the user. If
CBR is on, CRF will be disabled. Also added a 'Use Custom Buffer Size'
option to make it so that the buffer size will automatically be set to
the bitrate if its value is false. This is primarily a convenience
feature for users.
Certain RTMP services will support multi audio tracks via RTMP. This
updates librtmp with custom code that enables multiple streams per
connection to be used; each subsequent stream typically containing extra
audio tracks. The audio encoder names are used to indicate the names of
tracks, and the name of the tracks are used for the stream keys for
those subsequent tracks.
This makes FFmpeg usable as an output, and removes or changes most of
the code that was originally intended for testing purposes.
Changes the settings for the FFmpeg output to the following:
* url: Sets the output URL or file path
* video_bitrate: Sets the video bitrate
* audio_bitrate: Sets the audio bitrate
* video_encoder: Sets the video encoder (by name, blank for default)
* audio_encoder: Sets the audio encoder (by name, blank for default)
* video_settings: Sets custom video encoder FFmpeg settings
* audio_settings: Sets custom audio encoder FFmpeg settings
* scale_width: Image scale width (0 if none)
* scale_height: Image scale height (0 if none)
The reason why scale_width and scale_height are provided is because it
may internally convert formats, and it may be a bit more optimal to use
that scaler instead of the pre-output scaler just in case it already has
to convert formats internally anyway (though you can do it either way
you wish).
Video format handling has also changed; it will now attempt to use the
closest format to the current format if available for a given video
codec.
Implement the signals for the mixer checkboxes in the advanced audio
control so that it properly relays the values to/from the source when
the mixers are changed in obs or when the mixers are changed by the
user.
In the advanced audio properties, the last set of controls designate
what tracks the audio of a specific source is applied to, but for some
reason I named it 'Media Channels'. It feels a bit confusing of a name.
I feel like it should really just be called 'Tracks' here for lack of a
better term.
API changed:
--------------------------
void obs_output_set_audio_encoder(
obs_output_t *output,
obs_encoder_t *encoder);
obs_encoder_t *obs_output_get_audio_encoder(
const obs_output_t *output);
obs_encoder_t *obs_audio_encoder_create(
const char *id,
const char *name,
obs_data_t *settings);
Changed to:
--------------------------
/* 'idx' specifies the track index of the output */
void obs_output_set_audio_encoder(
obs_output_t *output,
obs_encoder_t *encoder,
size_t idx);
/* 'idx' specifies the track index of the output */
obs_encoder_t *obs_output_get_audio_encoder(
const obs_output_t *output,
size_t idx);
/* 'mixer_idx' specifies the mixer index to capture audio from */
obs_encoder_t *obs_audio_encoder_create(
const char *id,
const char *name,
obs_data_t *settings,
size_t mixer_idx);
Overview
--------------------------
This feature allows multiple audio mixers to be used at a time. This
capability was able to be added with surprisingly very little extra
overhead. Audio will not be mixed unless it's assigned to a specific
mixer, and mixers will not mix unless they have an active mix
connection.
Mostly this will be useful for being able to separate out specific audio
for recording versus streaming, but will also be useful for certain
streaming services that support multiple audio streams via RTMP.
I didn't want to use a variable amount of mixers due to the desire to
reduce heap allocations, so currently I set the limit to 4 simultaneous
mixers; this number can be increased later if needed, but honestly I
feel like it's just the right number to use.
Sources:
Sources can now specify which audio mixers their audio is mixed to; this
can be a single mixer or multiple mixers at a time. The
obs_source_set_audio_mixers function sets the audio mixer which an audio
source applies to. For example, 0xF would mean that the source applies
to all four mixers.
Audio Encoders:
Audio encoders now must specify which specific audio mixer they use when
they encode audio data.
Outputs:
Outputs that use encoders can now support multiple audio tracks at once
if they have the OBS_OUTPUT_MULTI_TRACK capability flag set. This is
mostly only useful for certain types of RTMP transmissions, though may
be useful for file formats that support multiple audio tracks as well
later on.
The comment says "these are different", but doesn't state why.
Actually, I should really rename the output flags so they're not flags,
but instead just "caps", because that's really all that they are.
This allows the usage of other resources in the style sheet, like
icons/etc, relative to the style sheet location. For example, to change
the main window app icon, add #OBSBasic { qproperty-windowIcon:
url("basic/newicon.png") } in the style sheet, where "basic/newicon.png"
is a path relative to the qss file location.
When you launch the source properties for the first time, the settings
for the source are empty and default values are used. With the new
OK/Cancel buttons that were recently merged, it first saves the old
settings, then if the user cancels applies those old settings.
However, because the first settings are always empty, obs_source_update
will try to apply the old settings (which are empty) to the modified
settings, but it can't reset to those settings because it's technically
not applying any settings at all.
In other words, when you create the source and modified the properties
for your first time, pressing cancel would not reset anything at all.
This fixes that issue by clearing the current settings with
obs_data_clear before updating the source with the old settings, which
ensures that any settings that were empty are reset to an empty status.
obs_data_apply is used to apply the changes of a source object in to a
destination object. Problem with this however is that if sub-objects
are in use, it currently just copies the pointer of the sub-object,
meaning that the source and destination will both share the same
sub-object via reference. If anything modifies that sub-object data,
it'll modify it for both objects, which was not intended.
Instead of copying the object pointer, create a new copy and then
recursively repeat the process to ensure the data is always completely
separate.
This will allow obs to load stylesheet.qss (Qt stylesheet). It enables
users to theme obs how they please within Qt stylesheet guidelines. A
default stylesheet is not yet available.
The class members were listed in the wrong order, causing GCC to throw
up a reorder warning signifying that they cannot be initialized in the
order they were listed in the constructor initializer list.
Changed:
char *os_get_config_path(const char *name);
To:
int os_get_config_path(char *dst, size_t size, const char *name);
Also added:
char *os_get_config_path_ptr(const char *name);
I don't like this function returning an allocation by default.
Similarly to what was done with the wide character conversion functions,
this function now operates on an array argument, and if you really want
to just get a pointer for convenience, you use the *_ptr version of the
function that clearly indicates that it's returning an allocation.
Use QDialogButtonBox to add "Okay" and "Cancel" buttons to the
properties dialog. The core functionality of the dialog is not changed;
I.E. the settings are still applied to the source as the user changes
them. If the user clicks "Okay", the dialog simply exits. If the user
clicks "Cancel", the original settings are reapplied to the source then
the dialog exits. If the window is closed by any other means (I.E. by
the main obs window closing) then the properties dialog prompts the user
if they changed anything and asks if they wish to save their settings.
In order to implement this last feature, a method of checking for open
dialogs and sending each a quit message is added to the closeEvent()
method for OBSBasic.
