EXPERIMENTAL: blu-ray lpcm profile + gui
by Andrew Randrianasulu 22 Dec '21

22 Dec '21

well, me and gui not quite get along... (see new layout of 'create bd' window..) but... it seems to work? you can choose profile (out of two) and it will appear in rendering window..

tsmuxer gui
by Andrew Randrianasulu 21 Dec '21

21 Dec '21

Attempt at utilizing tsmuxer depending on checkbox in BD creation window. (tsmuxer should avoid whole loop mounting/unmounting root requrement.. and support more features like HEVC muxing, arbitrary delay/chapters..)

14 Plugin GUIs improved
by Phyllis Smith 21 Dec '21

21 Dec '21

Today's checkin includes 14 plugins with improved GUIs to add Tumbler Boxes with current value now visible and ability to type in a specific desired value. Modified plugins are: - alpha + Reset button was added - brightness - huesaturation - linearBlur - polar - radialblur - rgbshift - sharpen - unsharp + hard to use Dial switched to the more consistent slider bar - wave - whirl - yuv - yuvshift - zoomblur Thanks to the Anonymous Contributor for this useful, more consistent, and desirable presentation for these plugins. This was very tedious work.

Is SD and HD 422 Video Capture obtainable with V4L(2)?

Linux drivers for Kona LHe plus?
by Andrew Randrianasulu 19 Dec '21

19 Dec '21

Hello. I am currently poke code of Cinelerra-gg {0} (fork of Cinelerra-HV {1}). Our software (Linux-only, even if you can try to compile on Windows or FreeBSD) tries to be quite high-end NLE with support for 32-bit floating point data path. On your product page https://www.aja.com/products/kona-lhe-plus I see "Supporting macOS, Windows and Linux, KONA LHe Plus offers cost effective simple connectivity for a range of workflows." yet on your (?) driver page https://github.com/aja-video/ntv2-v4l2 I can't see this specific card listed. Does this mean current (hopefully v4l2) drivers for Linux non-public/proprietary? Please indicate if I can forward your reply to our public mail list (cc-ed), or should I paraphrase it. {0} - https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/ {1} - http://www.heroinewarrior.com/cinelerra.php

decklink/blackmagic licence?
by Andrew Randrianasulu 19 Dec '21

19 Dec '21

It seems there is some uncertanity about what users/distributors can do with sdk required for working with their hardware? https://patchwork.ffmpeg.org/project/ffmpeg/patch/201704010120.37843.cehoyo… https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=839941 {this is related to HD capture hw we discuss with Terje} Should someone explicitly mail blackmagic's support about this?

Hit the wall trying to pass variable from one class to another
by Andrew Randrianasulu 17 Dec '21

I tried to pass variable into class BD_BatchRenderJob : public BatchRenderJob { public: static int get_udfs_mount(char *udfs, char *mopts, char *mntpt) ; BD_BatchRenderJob(Preferences *preferences, int labeled, int fa rmed); char *create_script(EDL *edl, ArrayList<Indexable *> *idxbls); int tsmuxered; }; from class CreateBD_Thread : public BC_DialogThread { static const int64_t BD_SIZE; static const int BD_STREAMS, BD_WIDTH, BD_HEIGHT; static const double BD_ASPECT_WIDTH, BD_ASPECT_HEIGHT; static const double BD_WIDE_ASPECT_WIDTH, BD_WIDE_ASPECT_HEIGHT ; static const int BD_MAX_BITRATE, BD_CHANNELS, BD_WIDE_CHANNELS; static const double BD_FRAMERATE, BD_SAMPLERATE, BD_KAUDIO_RATE ; static const int BD_INTERLACE_MODE; public: CreateBD_Thread(MWindow *mwindow); ~CreateBD_Thread(); void handle_close_event(int result); BC_Window* new_gui(); int option_presets(); int create_bd_script(const char *path, EDL *edl); int create_bd_jobs(ArrayList<BatchRenderJob*> *jobs, const char *asset_dir); int insert_video_plugin(const char *title, KeyFrame *default_ke yframe); int resize_tracks(); MWindow *mwindow; CreateBD_GUI *gui; char asset_title[BCTEXTLEN]; char tmp_path[BCTEXTLEN]; char use_profile[BCTEXTLEN]; int use_deinterlace, use_inverse_telecine; int use_scale, use_resize_tracks; int use_wide_audio, use_farmed; int use_histogram, use_labeled; int use_standard; int use_tsmuxer; int64_t bd_size; int bd_width; int bd_height; double bd_aspect_width; double bd_aspect_height; double bd_framerate; int bd_samplerate; int bd_max_bitrate; double bd_kaudio_rate; int bd_interlace_mode; int max_w, max_h; BD_BatchRenderJob *batchrender; }; but guess I do something wrong because just calling //batchrender->tsmuxered = use_tsmuxer; form void CreateBD_Thread::handle_close_event(int result) result in crash ( NOT WORKING (as far as this functionality is concerned) patchset attached...
