Remove the constraint for device inputs to be of the type "CAMERA".
This was added under the false assumption that inputs of the type
"TUNER" are only used for control purposes.
This adds helper function to disable/enable all properties which is
used in the device selected callback to enable/disable the properties
when the selected device is available/unavailable.
This adds some code to the device enumeration that checks if the
currently selected device is present. In case it is not it will
add the device but disable it.
This moves the calls to the property modified functions so the old
handler can close the device. Otherwise this would cause the device
to be opened multiple times.
This replaces the var in the source struct that are handling the
timestamp offset with a local one in the capture thread.
This change is mostly to make the code more readable.
This moves the enabling/resetting of the file descriptors inside the
capture loop so it is done before each select call. Why this even worked
before is unclear, but doing it the *right* way seems to reduce latency.
When a new device starts up, make it so that the first timestamp that
occurs starts from 0. This prevents the internal source timestamp
handling from trying to buffer new frames to the new timestamp value in
case the device changes.
Due to potential driver issues with certain devices, the timestamps are
not always reliable. This option allows of using the time in which the
frame was received as a timestamp instead.
This reverts commit c3f4b0f018.
The obs_source_frame should not need to take flags to do this. This
shouldn't be a setting associated with the frame, but rather a setting
associated with the source itself. This was the wrong approach to
solving this particular problem.
This reverts commit cd306d975a.
This removes the 'unbuffered' property for the time being. There should
be a better way of handling this, such as using system timestamps.
Also, the obs_source_frame::flags member needs to be removed and
replaced with something a bit more ideal.
This allows the user to select whether to use unbuffered video or not.
Unbuffered video cause the video frames to play back as soon as they're
received, rather than be buffered and attempt to play them back
according to the timestamp value of each frame.
Add 'flags' member variable to obs_source_frame structure.
The OBS_VIDEO_UNBUFFERED flags causes the video to play back as soon as
it's received (in the next frame playback), causing it to disregard the
timestamp value for the sake of video playback (however, note that the
video timestamp is still used for audio synchronization if audio is
present on the source as well).
This is partly a convenience feature, and partly a necessity for certain
plugins (such as the linux v4l plugin) where timestamp information for
the video frames can sometimes be unreliable.
This adds code to set up the udev monitoring library and use the events
to detect connects/disconnects of devices.
When the currently used device is disconnected the plugin will stop
recording and clean up, so that the device node is freed up.
On reconnection of the device the plugin will use the event to
automatically start the capture again.
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 adds a check whether the video format from the device is compatible
with obs. This could either happen if the "Leave unchanged" option is
selected for the video format, or if the driver simply overwrites the
requested video format.
Due to the refactoring of the update function the separation of data
members only to be accessed from inside/outside the capture thread is
no longer needed.
The old implementation of this function assumed that there would be some
settings that could be changed on the fly without restarting the
capture. That was actually never used for any setting.
Since the helper function also needs to pack/unpack the resolution, the
pack/unpack functions were moved to the helper library and prefixed with
v4l2_ in order to avoid possible collisions.
This was added at a time where the source properties dialog did not
pop up automatically on source creation. Now when the properties are
displayed the first device in the select input will be selected by
default if there was none already specified by the source settings.
This will make the code cleaner and also save one redundant round of
device enumeration.
The capabilities flags that were used previously describe all
capabilities the physical device offers. This would cause devices
that are accessible through multiple device nodes to show up with
all device nodes while only one of the nodes might actually offer
the needed video capture capability.
If the device has more nodes the CAP_DEVICES_CAP flag might be set
in which case the device_caps field is filled with the capabilities
that only apply to that specific node that is opened.
This moves some functions that are generic to a separate source
file. While doing so the api to those functions was improved to
be more generic and not depend on knowledge about the internal
structure of the plugin.
This functionality can now be handled automatically because locale can
now be freed seaparately from obs_module_unload with
obs_module_free_locale, which is called automatically when the module is
being freed.
Those functions are actually causing more problems than
helping out with the preview because the width/height is
updated immediately while the actual size of the frames
displayed changes later.
Due to the plugin creating a thread to retrieve and output the
captured image data, care must taken to not modify data the
thread reads from the outside while the thread is running.
In previous revisions some settings accessed by the capture
thread were written to in the update function which could cause
image corruption and in the worst case crashes.
The members of the data struct are now split into two groups,
those that are used by the thread while it is running and must
not be changed from the outside, and those can be changed at any
time.
This adds a function to prepare the source_frame struct for use
with obs_source_output_video. Since all of the values except for
the timestamp and data pointers are known in before it makes
little sense to compute them over and over again.
Due to the fact that v4l2 uses a single continuous memory segment
for multi planar formats we can also precompute memory offsets for
the planes.
By using the wrapper functions supplied by libv4l2 we gain
support for formats not natively supported by obs.
The library intercepts certain system calls to transparently
enable recoding.
Until a proper fix is found to support devices that use stepwise
or continuous values for framesize and framerate this adds fixed
values that can be selected.
For devices that support discrete values those are still queried
and used.
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.
Having the value stored here is somewhat pointless, so this is one step
in fixing the locale handling. Locale should be handled by the modules
themselves with their own loaded locale lookup information.
