This checkbox gives an 'eye' icon that indicates whether something is
visible or not. The color of the icon is influenced by the current
style's foreground color.
OBS will offer the user a list of themes which are .qss files inside
data/obs-studio/themes. If no theme is found in the configuration, it
loads the default theme for the system.
Instead of trying to replace this icon, I feel like just giving it a
white border is sufficient to make it usable in both light and dark
themes.
The only other option is to add icon changing code for themes for this
particular type of widget, and I felt it was best to not go down that
route due to the complexity involved.
Since the file being logged to changes with each run, opening a log
file is a tad more involved than desirable when it's necessary to view
the log each time OBS is run. This new menu entry shortcuts opening the
file from the file system manually.
Currently, this allows the setting of values such as:
- Audio buffering time
- Color format (still somewhat unsupported)
- YUV color space (if a YUV format)
= YUV color range (if a YUV format)
More color formats will be added in the future, such as RGB and YUV
4:2:2 formats.
Add a checkbox named "Enforce streaming service encoder settings"
checkbox to advanced output. Disabling this checkbox allows the user to
optionally disable the enforcement of streaming service encoder
settings. I had a user complain that they didn't want to always have
the service's preferred encoder settings forced on them.
clicked() is the wrong signal to use, it only activates on actual user
click, not when the value is changed. toggle() activates whenever the
value itself is changed.
Add a button to the main window to access advanced audio properties to
make it a bit more visible to users.
To facilitate this, the bottom part of the window was switched to a grid
layout.
Adds an 'advanced' mode to the output settings to allow more powerful
and complex streaming and recording options:
- Optionally use a different encoder for recording than for streaming to
allow the recording to use a different encoder or encoder settings if
desired (though at the cost if increased CPU usage depending on the
encoders being used)
- Use encoders other than x264
- Rescale the recording or streaming encoders in case the user wishes to
stream and record at different resolutions
- Select the specific mixer to use for recording and for streaming,
allowing the stream and recording to use separate mixers (to for
example allow a user to stream the game/mic audio but only record the
game audio)
- Use FFmpeg output for the recording button instead of only recording
h264/aac to FLV, allowing the user to output to various different
types of file formats or remote URLs, as well as allowing the user to
select and use different encoders and encoder settings that are
available in the FFmpeg library
- Optionally allow the use of multiple audio tracks in a single output
if the file formats or stream services support it
This does a few small things
-Moves buttons down 20px to the same height as the list boxes
-Adds a QFrame around scrollArea for mixer list.
Q: Why was this done?
A: When you go to style the mixer list in regards to adding a border,
shadow, or glow, it needs to be done on the QFrame. If you do it on the
scrollArea itself, the scrollbars will overlap the bottom of the border,
causing the border to look cut-off. Additionally, the other two sources
and scenes list widgets already had frames, so they did not have this
problem.
This dialog gives options such as increasing audio past 100%, forcing
the audio of a source to mono, and setting the audio sync offset of a
source (which was an oft-requested feature)
The status bar now displays:
- Auto-reconnect information (reconnecting and reconnect success)
- Dropped frames (as well as percentage of total video frames)
- Duration of session
- CPU usage of the program
- Kbp/s
The OBSBasic class is getting a bit big, so I separated out the
status bar code to its own class derived from QStatusBar.
Contains Move Up, Move Down, Move to Top, Move to Bottom. Also assigns
Ctrl-Up, Ctrl-Down, Ctrl-Home, Ctrl-End to each action.
This was also added to the right-click context menu popup for sources.
The removeItemAction just for a keyboard shortcut was unnecessary.
Instead, use the toolbar button to associate a shortcut with, and remove
the removeItemAction object.
There's no reason to represent this value in terms of scale. Scale is a
useless value for users to use. What are they going to enter, 0.5?
2.0? 0.25?
Even if it can be subject to change by the source itself, and even if
it's still converted to scale internally, having it display the base
source size value is much more ideal for the user.
So, scene editing was interesting (and by interesting I mean
excruciating). I almost implemented 'manipulator' visuals (ala 3dsmax
for example), and used 3 modes for controlling position/rotation/size,
but in a 2D editing, it felt clunky, so I defaulted back to simply
click-and-drag for movement, and then took a similar though slightly
different looking approach for handling scaling and reszing.
I also added a number of menu item helpers related to positioning,
scaling, rotating, flipping, and resetting the transform back to
default.
There is also a new 'transform' dialog (accessible via menu) which will
allow you to manually edit every single transform variable of a scene
item directly if desired.
If a scene item does not have bounds active, pulling on the sides of a
source will cause it to resize it via base scale rather than by the
bounding box system (if the source resizes that scale will apply). If
bounds are active, it will modify the bounding box only instead.
How a source scales when a bounding box is active depends on the type of
bounds being used. You can set it to scale to the inner bounds, the
outer bounds, scale to bounds width only, scale to bounds height only,
and a setting to stretch to bounds (which forces a source to always draw
at the bounding box size rather than be affected by its internal size).
You can also set it to be used as a 'maximum' size, so that the source
doesn't necessarily get scaled unless it extends beyond the bounds.
Like in OBS1, objects will snap to the edges unless the control key is
pressed. However, this will now happen even if the object is rotated or
oriented in any strange way. Snapping will also occur when stretching
or changing the bounding box size.
Implement the 'file path' in output settings, and implement the 'start
recording' button, though for the time being I'm just going to make it
use a directory rather than allow custom file names.
This file output will actually share the video and audio encoder with
the stream.
I don't really know what to do about MP4 -- I don't really like the idea
of saving directly in the program, if you do and the program crashes,
that MP4 file is lost. I'm contemplating making some sort of mp4 output
process stub. So no MP4 file output for the time being.
If you need MP4, just remux it with FFmpeg:
ffmpeg -i flv_file.flv -acodec copy -vcodec copy mp4_file.mp4
Added github gist API uploading to the help menu to help make problems a
bit easier to debug in the future. It's somewhat vital that this
functionality be implemented before any release in order to analyze any
given problem a user may be experiencing.
Add a 'source selection' dialog to replace the 'enter a name' dialog.
This new dialog allows you to make new instances of pre-existing sources
so that you can add a pre-existing source to a different scene, or in to
the same scene more than once.
Also started implementing locale.
Comtemplating switching to JSON-based locale later, so we can add things
like descriptions/disambiguation, and so we can use jansson's built-in
hash table when doing the string lookup.
- Add volume control
These volume controls are basically nothing more than sliders. They
look terrible and hopefully will be as temporary as they are
terrible.
- Allow saving of specific non-user sources via obs_load_source and
obs_save_source functions.
- Save data of desktop/mic audio sources (sync data, volume data, etc),
and load the data on startup.
- Make it so that a scene is created by default if first time using the
application. On certain operating systems where supported, a default
capture will be created. Desktop capture on mac, particularly. Not
sure what to do about windows because monitor capture on windows 7 is
completely terrible and is bad to start users off with.
It didn't really look very nice in most cases and the controls were
always compacted, doing this makes it look a bit better.
Also change it so the properties window shows the properties on the
bottom below the source rather than to the right, seeing as in most
cases the source has a greater width than height, and it feels just a
little bit better to look at (thought that's just my opinion).
Controls still stretch really far sometimes though, I wonder what should
be done about that to be honest. Maybe prevent it from scrolling to the
right?
