If the media source is set to restart on activation, it also shuts down
when not active. However, it would *always* start regardless of
active/inactive when the source is first created. It shouldn't do that,
it should start up only when it becomes active.
Certain types of sources (display captures, game captures, audio
device captures, video device captures) should not be duplicated. This
capability flag hints that the source prefers references over full
duplication.
Adds the option of making the media file restart when the source becomes
active (such as switching to a scene with it).
Due to lack of libff features to start/stop/pause/seek media files,
currently this just destroys the demuxer and recreates it. Ideally,
libff should have some functions to allow a more optimal means of doing
those things.
Reactors a bit of code related to starting up FFmpeg and makes it so the
initial view for the media source's properties displays the most
commonly desired settings.
Instead of the media source properties showing the URL mode by default
along with a whole bunch of properties that are confusing to most users,
starts on file mode and changes defaults to be a bit more sensible
related to file input.
Also, as a temporary measure for fixing color format issues (some video
files would display their color information incorrectly), forced format
conversion is now enabled by default, and has been moved to advanced
settings. Ideally, the actual bug causing color format issues in either
media-io or libff should be fixed at some point.
When browsing for a file, it would also just use *.* for the file
filter, which is a pain to use. This has been changed to use a
reasonable file filter related to common video/audio files so you don't
have to wade through non-media files just to select a media file. A
filter to show all files is still available as well.
Another thread could be manipulating the active_log_contexts array while the current thread is trying to read it, resulting in an uninitialized memory crash as the da_push_back call was not protected by the mutex.
This also adds the ability to detect whether it stopped due to lack of
space or not -- particularly useful for the FFmpeg output due to
lossless file format support.
For the FFmpeg output, the encoder ids are sort of superfluous. They
really should be optional. If they're not set, it should use the
encoder name string instead to determine the ids automatically.
API changed from:
obs_source_info::get_name(void)
obs_output_info::get_name(void)
obs_encoder_info::get_name(void)
obs_service_info::get_name(void)
API changed to:
obs_source_info::get_name(void *type_data)
obs_output_info::get_name(void *type_data)
obs_encoder_info::get_name(void *type_data)
obs_service_info::get_name(void *type_data)
This allows the type data to be used when getting the name of the
object (useful for plugin wrappers primarily).
NOTE: Though a parameter was added, this is backward-compatible with
older plugins due to calling convention. The new parameter will simply
be ignored by older plugins, and the stack (if used) will be cleaned up
by the caller.
This is used by some muxers that set AVFMT_NOFILE and doesn't seem to
hurt muxers that don't set it; notable this makes the hls muxer output
its m3u8 playlist with the proper filename in the proper directory
This particularly affected audio encoding, audio encoding previously
would count samples and use it to create an encoding timestamp, but
because I was using a standard integer (which is 32bit by default on
x86), it would max out at about 0x7FFFFFFF samples, which is about 12
hours of samples at 48000 sample rate. After that, it would start going
into negative territory (overflowing). By changing it to int64_t, it
will make it so that audio at 48000 samples per second would only be
able to overflow after about.. 6.09 million years. In other words,
this should fix the issue for good.
In addition to the flv file format, this allows the ability to save to
container formats such as mp4, ts, mkv, and any other containers that
support the current codecs being used.
It pipes the encoded data to the ffmpeg-mux process, which then safely
muxes the file from the encoded data. If the main program unexpectedly
terminates, the ffmpeg-mux piped program will safely close the file and
write trailer data, preventing file corruption.
Instead of using system timestamps for playback, use the timestamps
directly from the video/audio data to ensure all the data is synced up
using the obs_source back-end.
I think the original misconception when this was written was that OBS
would not handle timestamp resets/loops, which isn't the case; it will
actually handle all timestamp resets and abnormalities. It's always
best to use the obs_source back-end for all playback and syncing.
In the settings if you select default container then the
format becomes null. If null then audio/video codec ids should
not be set on the output format as they will both be
AV_CODEC_ID_NONE causing a context with no streams specified
to be created (error).
API Changed (in struct obs_encoder_info):
----------------------------------------
bool (*get_audio_info)(void *data, struct audio_convert_info *info);
bool (*get_video_info)(void *data, struct video_scale_info *info);
To:
----------------------------------------
void (*get_audio_info)(void *data, struct audio_convert_info *info);
void (*get_video_info)(void *data, struct video_scale_info *info);
The encoder video/audio information callbacks no longer need to manually
query the libobs video/audio information, that information is now passed
via the parameter, which the callbacks can modify.
The refactor that reduces boilerplate in the encoder video/audio
information callbacks also removes the need for their return values, so
change the return types to void.
Check the actual name of the codec before applying an x264-specific
preset so we don't encounter an "Invalid argument" error when using
other h264 encoders in FFmpeg (such as NVEnc).
Closesjp9000/obs-studio#412
Some formats (like WMV) would send out audio packets that
had channels set but did not specify a channel layout.
Solution is to no longer rely on channel layout to get the
channels and just get the channel count directly off the
FFmpeg audio frame.
