from Troy Sobotka (sobotka), with edits
- remove Markers from Ctrl+L menu (was out of place here and was broken from recent changes to marker operators)
- further de-duplicte scripts by having all menus call the same function: marker_menu_generic().
this fixes bug [#29083] too.
- Display running job template in all sequencer modes
It was displayed only for sequencer mode without preview.
- Fixed proxy rebuild progress indicator
It was alsways zero because of incorrect rounding.
- Fixed timecode saving on windows (and probably some other platforms)
It was caused by incorrect opening file for writting -- it should
be opened in binary format "wb". This error caused incorrect
movie duration detection on windows.
- Fixed movie resolution detection for some movies.
In file attached to report, Blender detected resolution 1920x1088
instead of 1920x1080. Not sure if this fix is correct or it's
issue in FFmpeg, but it's something what mplayer using: store
width/height before running avcodec_open().
- Fixed frame number calculation when building timecodes.
It was rounding error caused some frames be positioned incorrect
in several cases (that each 6th frame rendered as next frame
from report).
from Bastien Montagne (mont29)
Only applied Sequencer Select Grouped functionality - similar to the one in object mode, select strips based on type, time, data etc.
- Make gettext stuff draw-time. so switching between languages
can happens without restart now.
- Added option to translate visible interface (menus, buttons, labels)
and tooltips. Now it's possible to have english UI and localized tooltips.
- Clean-up sources, do not use gettext stuff for things which can be
collected with RNA.
- Fix issues with windows 64bit and ru_RU locale on my desktop
(it was codepage issue).
- Added operator "Get Messages" which generates new text block with
with all strings collected from RNA.
- Changed script for updating blender.pot so now it appends
messages collected from rna to automatically gathered messages.
To update .pot you have to re-generate messages.txt using "Get Messages"
operator and then run update_pot script.
- Clean up old translation stuff which wasn't used and most probably
wouldn't be used.
- Return back "International Fonts" option, so if it's disabled, no
gettext lookups happens on draw.
- Merged read_homefile function back. No need in splitting it.
TODO:
- Custom fonts and font size.
Current font isn't nice at least for russian locale, it's
difficult to read it.
- Put references to messages.txt so gettext can merge translation when
name/description of some property changes.
This patch adds:
* support for proxy building again (missing feature from Blender 2.49)
additionally to the way, Blender 2.49 worked, you can select several
strips at once and make Blender build proxies in the background (using
the job system)
Also a new thing: movie proxies are now build into AVI files, and
the proxy system is moved into ImBuf-library, so that other parts
of blender can also benefit from it.
* Timecode support: to fix seeking issues with files, that have
a) varying frame rates
b) very large GOP lengths
c) are broken inbetween
d) use different time code tracks
the proxy builder can now also build timecode indices, which are
used (optionally) for seeking.
For the first time, it is possible, to do frame exact seeking on
all file types.
* Support for different video-streams in one video file (can be
selected in sequencer, other parts of blender can also use it,
but UI has to be added accordingly)
* IMPORTANT: this patch *requires* ffmpeg 0.7 or newer, since
older versions don't support the pkt_pts field, that is essential
for building timecode indices.
Windows and Mac libs are already updated, Linux-users have to build
their own ffmpeg verions until distros keep up.
Final GSoC commit.
* Bugfix: Negative frames crashed
* Bugfix: JOS sample buffer size prediction error (wasted memory)
* Optimisation: for JOS upsampling (around 12 % difference measured here)
* Optimisation: Better filter for JOS resampling
* Bugfix: Error in relative 3D audio code.
* Removed Attenuation
* Bugfix: Multiple scenes in BGE lead to errors, BGE audio now all relative, to support multiple scenes.
- add change data operator to strip panel next to image file properties since editing every image manually isnt really usable.
- added new sequencer operator "Clear Offsets" (Alt+O), useful to reset the start/end frames around the strip data.
* Code cleanup in the space_*.py files.
* Removed layout.column() statement in _MT_ panels, they are useless.
* Only define variables at the beginning of a function!
Improved waveform drawing in the sequencer.
* Drawing the waveform of a sequencer strip is now independent from whether the sound is cached or not.
* Improved drawing of the waveform in the sequencer (especially speed!).
* Making it possible to vertically zoom more in the sequencer to better see the waveform for lipsync.
* Fixed a bug which crashed blender on loading a sound file via ffmpeg.
Implemented basic audio animation.
* AnimatableProperty: Propper cache writing and spline interpolation for reading (the solution for stair steps in audio animation)
* Animatable properties so far are: volume, pitch, panning
* Users note: Changing the pitch of a sound results in wrong seeking, due to the resulting playback length difference.
* Users note: Panning only works for mono sources, values are in the range [-2..2], this basically controls the angle of the sound, 0 is front, -1 left, 1 right and 2 and -2 are back. Typical stereo panning only supports [-1..1].
* Disabled animation of audio related ffmpeg output parameters.
* Scene Audio Panel: 3D Listener settings also for Renderer, new Volume property (animatable!), Update/Bake buttons for animation problems, moved sampling rate and channel count here
Time-scale drawing wasn't respecting the time unit setting.
While working on this, I tried to tweak the grid drawing to a more
common setting. It's hardcoded to show lines at every 25 px = once
every 25 frames, which is only really fine when FPS=25. Anyways, this
works fine enough for the sequencer for now in general usage.
This commit adds an experimental effect strip to the sequencer: "Title
Card".
This is useful for adding simple one-line text section headers or
"title cards" (i.e. title + author/contact details) to video clips,
which is often seen in demo videos accompanying papers and/or
animation tests.
See http://aligorith.blogspot.com/2011/06/gsoc11-simple-title-
cards.html for some more details on usage.
Code notes:
- There are a few things I've done here which will probably need
cleaning up. For instance, the hacks to get threadsafe fonts for
rendering, and also the way I've tried to piggyback the backdrop
drawing on top of the Solid Colour strips (this method was used to
keep changes here minimal, but is quite fragile if things change).
This patch adds adjustment layer tracks to the sequencer and does some cleaning
up of the code.
What's an adjustment layer?
Think of it as an effect track, which takes no explicit input, but alters
the output of everything down the layer stack.
So: you can add several stages of color correction with it.
And: you can even use it with metastrips to group several adjustments together.
ui/ --> startup/bl_ui
op/ --> startup/bl_operators
scripts/startup/ is now the only auto-loading script dir which gives some speedup for blender loading too.
~/.blender/2.56/scripts/startup works for auto-loading scripts too.
