Before, async video sources would flicker because they were only being
drawn when they were updated. So when updated, they'd draw that frame,
then it would stop drawing it until it updated again. This fixes that
issue and they should now draw properly.
Also, fix a few other minor bugs and issues relating to async video,
and make it so that non-async video filters can be properly applied to
them.
For the purposes of testing, change the 'test-random' source to an async
video source that updates every quarter of a second with a new random
face.
Also fix a bug where non-async video sources wouldn't have filter
effects applied properly.
Improve the properties API so that it can actually respond somewhat to
user input. Maybe later this might be further improved or replaced with
something script-based.
When creating a property, you can now add a callback to that property
that notifies when the property has been changed in the user interface.
Return true if you want the properties to be refreshed, or false if not.
Though now that I think about it I doubt there would ever be a case
where you would have this callback and *not* refresh the properties.
Regardless, this allows functions to change the values of properties or
settings, or enable/disable/hide other property controls from view
dynamically.
Also add support for capturing displays that are not the main display as
preparation for moving the code from test-plugins into a proper plugin
in the future
...The reason why audio didn't work was because I overwrote the bitrate
values.
As for semaphores, mac doesn't support unnamed semaphores without using
mach semaphores. So, I just implemented a semaphore wrapper for each
OS.
- Add CoreAudio device input capture for mac audio capturing. The code
should cover just about everything for capturing mac input device
audio. Because of the way mac audio is designed, users may have no
choice but to obtain the open source soundflower software to capture
their mac's desktop audio. It may be necessary for us to distribute
it with the program as well.
- Hide event backend
- Use win32 events for windows
- Allow timed waits for events
- Fix a few warnings
Implement a few audio options in to the user interface as well as a few
inline audio functions in audio-io.h.
Make it so ffmpeg plugin automatically converts to the desired format.
Use regular interleaved float internally for audio instead of planar
float.
There were a *lot* of warnings, managed to remove most of them.
Also, put warning flags before C_FLAGS and CXX_FLAGS, rather than after,
as -Wall -Wextra was overwriting flags that came before it.
The API used to be designed in such a way to where it would expect
exports for each individual source/output/encoder/etc. You would export
functions for each and it would automatically load those functions based
on a specific naming scheme from the module.
The idea behind this was that I wanted to limit the usage of structures
in the API so only functions could be used. It was an interesting idea
in theory, but this idea turned out to be flawed in a number of ways:
1.) Requiring exports to create sources/outputs/encoders/etc meant that
you could not create them by any other means, which meant that
things like faruton's .net plugin would become difficult.
2.) Export function declarations could not be checked, therefore if you
created a function with the wrong parameters and parameter types,
the compiler wouldn't know how to check for that.
3.) Required overly complex load functions in libobs just to handle it.
It makes much more sense to just have a load function that you call
manually. Complexity is the bane of all good programs.
4.) It required that you have functions of specific names, which looked
and felt somewhat unsightly.
So, to fix these issues, I replaced it with a more commonly used API
scheme, seen commonly in places like kernels and typical C libraries
with abstraction. You simply create a structure that contains the
callback definitions, and you pass it to a function to register that
definition (such as obs_register_source), which you call in the
obs_module_load of the module.
It will also automatically check the structure size and ensure that it
only loads the required values if the structure happened to add new
values in an API change.
The "main" source file for each module must include obs-module.h, and
must use OBS_DECLARE_MODULE() within that source file.
Also, started writing some doxygen documentation in to the main library
headers. Will add more detailed documentation as I go.
- Fill in the rest of the FFmpeg test output code for testing so it
actually properly outputs data.
- Improve the main video subsystem to be a bit more optimal and
automatically output I420 or NV12 if needed.
- Fix audio subsystem insertation and byte calculation. Now it will
seamlessly insert new audio data in to the audio stream based upon
its timestamp value. (Be extremely cautious when using floating
point calculations for important things like this, and always round
your values and check your values)
- Use 32 byte alignment in case of future optimizations and export a
function to get the current alignment.
- Make os_sleepto_ns return true if slept, false if the time has
already been passed before the call.
- Fix sinewave output so that it actually properly calculates a middle
C sinewave.
- Change the use of row_bytes to linesize (also makes it a bit more
consistent with FFmpeg's naming as well)
- Add planar audio support. FFmpeg and libav use planar audio for many
encoders, so it was somewhat necessary to add support in libobs
itself.
- Improve/adjust FFmpeg test output plugin. The exports were somewhat
messed up (making me rethink how exports should be done). Not yet
functional; it handles video properly, but it still does not handle
audio properly.
- Improve planar video code. The planar video code was not properly
accounting for row sizes for each plane. Specifying row sizes for
each plane has now been added. This will also make it more compatible
with FFmpeg/libav.
- Fixed a bug where callbacks wouldn't create properly in audio-io and
video-io code.
- Implement 'blogva' function to allow for va_list usage with libobs
logging.
- Added a test audio sinewave test source that should just play a sine
wave of the middle C note. Using unsigned 8 bit mono to test
ffmpeg's audio resampler, seems to work pretty good.
- Fixed a boolean trap in threading.h for the event_init function, it
now uses enum event_type, which can be EVENT_TYPE_MANUAL or
EVENT_TYPE_AUTO, to specify whether the event is automatically reset
or not.
- Changed display names of test sources to something a little less
vague.
- Removed te whole "if timestamp is 0 just use current system time"
when outputting source audio, if you want to use system time you
should just use system time yourself. Using 0 as some sort of
"indicator" like that just makes things confusing, and prevents you
from legitimately using 0 as a timestamp for your audio data.
I added gl-x11 which allows compatibility with X11 (Xlib-based) and GLX.
I also added various functions to handle file finding based on FHS.
Various changes to autotools to both install files correctly and to configure correctly.
In particular, it removes any deprecated functionality
wxWidgets only documents their deprecated m4 macros and gives a poor example
Also to note in regard to wxWidgets, I removed any unneeded libraries from the linker line.
Any warning messages provided by autoconf has been supressed in the most appropriate manner possible.
