Due to a small error in the timestamp smoothing code the timestamp of
audio packages that were too early was always set to the next expected
timestamp, even if the difference was bigger than the smoothing threshold.
This would cause obs to simply append all audio data to the buffer even if
the real timestamp was way smaller than the next that was expected.
This should reduce corruption problems with for example the pulseaudio
plugin, which resends data under certain conditions.
obs_source_update_properties should be called by sources when property
values change, e.g. a capture device source would use this when it
detects a new capture device (in case its properties contain a list of
available capture devices or similar)
This Fixes a minor flaw with the API where data had to always be mutable
to be usable by the API.
Functions that do not modify the fundamental underlying data of a
structure should be marked as constant, both for safety and to signify
that the parameter is input only and will not be modified by the
function using it.
Typedef pointers are unsafe. If you do:
typedef struct bla *bla_t;
then you cannot use it as a constant, such as: const bla_t, because
that constant will be to the pointer itself rather than to the
underlying data. I admit this was a fundamental mistake that must
be corrected.
All typedefs that were pointer types will now have their pointers
removed from the type itself, and the pointers will be used when they
are actually used as variables/parameters/returns instead.
This does not break ABI though, which is pretty nice.
This helps ensure that an asynchronous video source is played as close
to its framerate as possible, reduces the risk of duplication as
much as possible, and helps to ensure that playback is as smooth as
possible.
This prevents multiple needless calls to obs_source_get_frame and other
functions. If the texture has already been processed, then just render
it as-is in any subsequent calls to obs_source_video_render.
This is actually unnecessary now that there's a hard limit on the
maximum offset in which audio can be inserted.
This also assumes too much about the audio; it assumes audio is always
on, where as with some devices (such as the elgato) audio is not on
until the stream starts, and when the video has already incremented the
counter.
If the audio didn't start at the 0 timestamp, it would misinterpret it
as a timestamp jump because obs_source::next_audio_ts_min is set to 0 on
creation. Timestamp starting values should be allowed to start at any
arbitrary value.
Instead of having functions like obs_signal_handler() that can fail to
properly specify their actual intent in the name (does it signal a
handler, or does it return a signal handler?), always prefix functions
that are meant to get information with 'get' to make its functionality
more explicit.
Previous names: New names:
-----------------------------------------------------------
obs_audio obs_get_audio
obs_video obs_get_video
obs_signalhandler obs_get_signal_handler
obs_prochandler obs_get_proc_handler
obs_source_signalhandler obs_source_get_signal_handler
obs_source_prochandler obs_source_get_proc_handler
obs_output_signalhandler obs_output_get_signal_handler
obs_output_prochandler obs_output_get_proc_handler
obs_service_signalhandler obs_service_get_signal_handler
obs_service_prochandler obs_service_get_proc_handler
Changed:
- obs_source_gettype
To:
- enum obs_source_type obs_source_get_type(obs_source_t source);
- const char *obs_source_get_id(obs_source_t source);
This function was inconsistent for a number of reasons. First, it
returns both the ID and the type of source (input/transition/filter),
which is inconsistent with the name of "get type". Secondly, the
'squishy' naming convention which has just turned out to be bad
practice and causes inconsistencies. So it's now replaced with two
functions that just return the type and the ID.
Prefix with obs_ for the sake of consistency
Renamed enums:
- order_movement (now obs_order_movement)
Affected functions:
- obs_source_filter_setorder
- obs_sceneitem_setorder
Renamed functions:
- obs_source_getframe (rename to obs_source_get_frame)
- obs_source_releaseframe (rename to obs_source_release_frame)
For the sake of consistency and helping to get rid of the "squishy
function name" issue
With the recent change to module handling by BtbN, I felt that having
this information might be useful in case someone is actually using make
install to set up their libraries.
NOTE: In texture_setimage, I had to move variables to the top of the
scope because microsoft's C compiler will give the legacy C90 error of:
'illegal use of this type as an expression'.
To sum it up, microsoft's C compiler is still utter garbage.
Similar to the shader functions, the effect parameter functions take
the effect as a parameter. However, the effect parameter is pretty
pointless, because the effect parameter.. parameter stores the effect
pointer interally.
The locale parameter was a mistake, because it puts extra needless
burden upon the module developer to have to handle this variable for
each and every single callback function. The parameter is being removed
in favor of a single centralized module callback function that
specifically updates locale information for a module only when needed.
This replaces the older code which simply queried the max volume level
value for any given audio.
I'm still not 100% sure on if this is how I want to approach the
problem, particularly, whether this should be done in obs_source or in
audio_line, but it can always be moved later if needed.
This uses the calculations by the awesome Bill Hamilton that OBS1 used
for its volume levels. It calculates the current max (level),
magnitude, and current peak. This data then can be used to create
awesome volume meter controls later on.
NOTE: Will probably need optimization, does one float at a time right
now.
Also, change some of the naming conventions. I actually need to change
a lot of the naming conventions in general so that all words are
separated by underscores. Kind of a bad practice there on my part.
When a source's private data is being created by a module, it wasn't
able to call most source functions because most functions rely on the
obs_source_info part of the context to be set. This fixes that issue.
It was strange that this wasn't already the case because the other
context types already did the same thing.
This uses the reverse planar YUV 4:2:0 conversion shader to output a YUV
texture without having to convert it via CPU. Again, this will reduce
video upload bandwidth usage to 37.5% of the original rate. I suspect
this will be particularly useful for when an FFmpeg or libav input
plugin for playing videos is made.
NOTE: There's an issue with certain texture sizes right now I haven't
been able to identify, if the full size of texture data divided by the
base texture width is an uneven number, the V chroma plane seems like it
can potentially shift, though I only had this happen with 160x90
resolution C920. Almost all resolutions tend to be even. Needs further
testing with more devices that support planar YUV 4:2:0 output.
First, if the private data of the source fails to be created, then do
not destroy the source. If the source is destroyed, all the user's data
associated with that source is lost, which could end up being a
potential problem. Instead, let it linger as a 'dead' source until the
user chooses to fix the problem (though this should never really happen,
the source module functions should be programmed to handle this
scenario)
Secondly, rename new_frame_ready to ready_async_frame, and fix a
potential memory leak with it.
obs_source_output_video can cause cached frames to be freed twice if
called with a partially destroyed source, among other undesirable
effects; freeing the source private data right after the destroy signal
has been processed ensures proper behavior
- Add volume control
These volume controls are basically nothing more than sliders. They
look terrible and hopefully will be as temporary as they are
terrible.
- Allow saving of specific non-user sources via obs_load_source and
obs_save_source functions.
- Save data of desktop/mic audio sources (sync data, volume data, etc),
and load the data on startup.
- Make it so that a scene is created by default if first time using the
application. On certain operating systems where supported, a default
capture will be created. Desktop capture on mac, particularly. Not
sure what to do about windows because monitor capture on windows 7 is
completely terrible and is bad to start users off with.
If a source with async video wasn't currently active, it would endlessly
buffer the video data, which would cause memory to grow endlessly until
available memory was extinguished.
This really needs to be replaced with a proper caching mechanism at some
point.
