===========================
Fixed threading issues used to happen when compositor tree
and rendering happened in the same time. Problem was caused
by cached camera intrinsics stored in MovieTracking structure
and access to which wasn't thread-safe.
Now each movie distoriton mode stores it's own camera intrinsics
in it's storage which makes compositor (un)distoriton be totally
thread-safe and this also makes compositor tree faster when
(un)distortion happens on images with different resolution.
===========================
Bundle new libmv to fix crash caused by some errors in detector.
This commit makes SAD tracking much slower because now it supports
afgine tracking. Not implemented in Blender yet to keep commits
more clear.
===========================
- Bundling new libmv, issues with undefined uint and C99 functions should gone.
- Changes to Detect operator to match new API.
===========================
- Bundle new version of libmv.
- Use image from nearest track's keyframe as reference for tracking.
This should reduce drifting.
- Added option to switch to new SAD tracker.
This tracker doesn't support pattern with variable size (yet?)
and always uses pattern 16x16px.
Tracker could be choosed in Tracking Settings panel.
===========================
- Distortion/undistortion were accidentally swapped in both of grease
pencil calibration and grid.
This was fixed but distortion coefficients should be re-adjusted.
There are some issues with high distortion coefficients but it
came from libmv and until it'll be fixed there nothing really
can be done here.
- Fixed displayed aspect ratio for muted footage when pixel/display
aspect ratio is differ from 1.0 or proxy size is not Full Render,
- Added c-api for image distortion/undistortion, Not used yet.
===========================
Bundling new version of libmv. It's repo is ready for
bundling again, some patches which were applied on our
side are in libmv repo now.
This new version of libmv also contains patch from John Carpenter
which makes reconstruciton a bit more "stable" -- some kind
of fallback algorithm.
===========================
- Bundle re-newed libmv library.
- Update API in libmv-capi to match new library.
- Initial implementaition of feature detection.
- Fixed bug with incorrect user sync when tracking
for first frame.
===========================
- 32 bit linux compilation should be fixed now.
- Camrea reconstruction data should be better now
when there's no reconstructed cameras.
- Implemented "Set Origin" operator
- Added "Specials" W-key menu for SpaceClip.
Supports such operators:
* Enable track
* Disable track
* Set origin
===========================
- ColaMD moved from OpenNL to extern/.
It'll be needed for libmv. Also, it's a bit updated from
year 1999 to 2007.
Need to be tested for regressions.
- Updated bundling script for libmv. Now it uses fuller
subset of this library.
- Bundled new libmv.
- Request from Keir: add command line argument to toggle logging
stuff on. Currently, if Blender is launched with -d argument
libmv would start printing logging messages. There's no
argument to increase verbosity, but there's API in libmv-capi,
so it'll be easy to add.
- Finally fixed crash when ibuf is acquiring with user=NULL.
- Added ActiveClip property to the scene. This clip is used
as default value for new match-moving constraints.
- Added some flags to Display panel of View3D. Related on
displaying match-moving stuff.
- Internal change: bundles data moved inside to MovieTrackingTrack.
- Initial implementation of 3d reconstruction.
- Added constraint "Camera Solver". This constraint is supposed
to be used to make camera follow the reconstructed camera path.
- Added "reference" property to "Follow Track" constraint.
Now object could be "parented" to 2D track position or to
3D bundle position.
The very quick guide:
To use reconstruction you should have footage with tracked markers,
choose two keyframes in "Tracking settings" panel. There should be
quite noticeable parallax effect between this two frames. This
is used to initialize reconstruction stuff.
Camera data (focal length and optical center) should be filled in
"Camera Data" panel. Optical center is often the center of image,
so it'll be filled in automatically.
You should also set values for undistortion (K1, K2 and K3). Currently,
there's no any visualization for this parameters and approach of
"change value -> reconstruct -> see what've changed" is the only way
for now.
Libmv team is working on auto-calibration tool, so it should be
easier to gather this coefficients in nearest (i hope) future.
There's also no scene orientation stuff.
Basic workflow:
- Open footage.
- Set markers and track them.
- Fill in camera data and keyframes.
- Hit "Solve Camera" button.
- Add "Camera Solver" constraint to camera in scene.
- Choose movieclip in that constraint.
- To see bundles in 3D viewport active clip should be set
in scene buttons.
