- Add property list callbacks to sources/outputs/encoders so that if
necessary user interface can be automatically generated or perhaps a
property list widget can be used for them.
- Change some of the property API names. obs_property_list_t felt a bit
awkward when actually using it, so I just renamed it to
obs_properties_t.
- Removed the getdata/setdata nad getparam/setparam functions from
sources/services, they will be superseded by the dynamic procedure
call API.
Add a fairly easy to use settings interface that can be passed to
plugins, and replaced the old character string system that was being
used before. The new data interface allows for an easier method of
getting/altering settings for plugins, and is built to be serializable
to/from JSON.
Also, removed another wxFormBuilder file that was no longer in use.
Changed the comments to properly reflect the new callbacks, as I had
forgotten to update the comments for them both.
Also, changed "setbitrate" and "request_keyframe" return values to be
boolean.
- First, I redid the output interface for libobs. I feel like it's
going in a pretty good direction in terms of design.
Right now, the design is so that outputs and encoders are separate.
One or more outputs can connect to a specific encoder to receive its
data, or the output can connect directly to raw data from libobs
output itself, if the output doesn't want to use a designated encoder.
Data is received via callbacks set when you connect to the encoder or
raw output. Multiple outputs can receive the data from a single
encoder context if need be (such as for streaming to multiple channels
at once, and/or recording with the same data).
When an encoder is first connected to, it will connect to raw output,
and start encoding. Additional connections will receive that same
data being encoded as well after that. When the last encoder has
disconnected, it will stop encoding. If for some reason the encoder
needs to stop, it will use the callback with NULL to signal that
encoding has stopped. Some of these things may be subject to change
in the future, though it feels pretty good with this design so far.
Will have to see how well it works out in practice versus theory.
- Second, Started adding preliminary RTMP/x264 output plugin code.
To speed things up, I might just make a direct raw->FFmpeg output to
create a quick output plugin that we can start using for testing all
the subsystems.
