- Implement OBS encoder interface. It was previously incomplete, but
now is reaching some level of completion, though probably should
still be considered preliminary.
I had originally implemented it so that encoders only have a 'reset'
function to reset their parameters, but I felt that having both a
'start' and 'stop' function would be useful.
Encoders are now assigned to a specific video/audio media output each
rather than implicitely assigned to the main obs video/audio
contexts. This allows separate encoder contexts that aren't
necessarily assigned to the main video/audio context (which is useful
for things such as recording specific sources). Will probably have
to do this for regular obs outputs as well.
When creating an encoder, you must now explicitely state whether that
encoder is an audio or video encoder.
Audio and video can optionally be automatically converted depending
on what the encoder specifies.
When something 'attaches' to an encoder, the first attachment starts
the encoder, and the encoder automatically attaches to the media
output context associated with it. Subsequent attachments won't have
the same effect, they will just start receiving the same encoder data
when the next keyframe plays (along with SEI if any). When detaching
from the encoder, the last detachment will fully stop the encoder and
detach the encoder from the media output context associated with the
encoder.
SEI must actually be exported separately; because new encoder
attachments may not always be at the beginning of the stream, the
first keyframe they get must have that SEI data in it. If the
encoder has SEI data, it needs only add one small function to simply
query that SEI data, and then that data will be handled automatically
by libobs for all subsequent encoder attachments.
- Implement x264 encoder plugin, move x264 files to separate plugin to
separate necessary dependencies.
- Change video/audio frame output structures to not use const
qualifiers to prevent issues with non-const function usage elsewhere.
This was an issue when writing the x264 encoder, as the x264 encoder
expects non-const frame data.
Change stagesurf_map to return a non-const data type to prevent this
as well.
- Change full range parameter of video scaler to be an enum rather than
boolean
- Split input and output audio captures so that they're different
sources. This allows easier handling and enumeration of audio
devices without having to do some sort of string processing.
This way the user interface code can handle this a bit more easily,
and so that it doesn't confuse users either. This should be done for
all audio capture sources for all operating systems. You don't have
to duplicate any code, you just need to create input/output wrapper
functions to designate the audio as input or output before creation.
- Make it detect soundflower and wavtap devices as mac "output" devices
(even though they're actually input) for the mac output capture, and
make it so that users can select a default output capture and
automatically use soundflower or wavtap.
I'm not entirely happy about having to do this, but because mac is
designed this way, this is really the only way to handle it that
makes it easier for users and UI code to deal with.
Note that soundflower and wavtap are still also designated as input
devices, so will still show up in input device enumeration.
- Remove pragma messages because they were kind polluting the other
compiler messages and just getting in the way. In the future we can
just do a grep for TODO to find them.
- Redo list property again, this time using a safer internal array,
rather than requiring sketchy array inputs. Having functions handle
everything behind the scenes is much safer.
- Remove the reference counter debug log code, as it was included
unintentionally in a commit.
