[CinCVS] Klocwork results

2006-09-13 Thread m h

Cinelerra people-

I now have a bit of time in the coming week (and motiviation to create
a new video since my 3rd child was just born).  (The joys of paternity
leave)

My plan is to try and use the latest merge source (will be working on
gentoo).  Start making a simple video and whenever I hit a crash, try
to figure out what caused it.  I'll compile with debug options and run
valgrind as well when necessary.  If anyone has hints or suggestions
that might be handy feel free to share them.  Otherwise I'll be
popsting my comments/questions here.

Hopefully the klockwork results will still be somewhat relevant to the
latest source.

If others are interesting in the klocwork results, please let me know.
I don't think that klocwork would mind me sharing their results as
long as you credit them for any fix done using their analysis.  I've
got a speadsheet export that is probably easier to use than their web
interface.

[CinCVS] Render timing?

2006-09-13 Thread Kevin Brosius
I notice that the render time display that used to appear in the status
bar is no longer visible here.  It seems that because of the auto
indexing that occurs if you use 'load resources only' at render time,
the status bar will update the index, replacing the render time
display...

One way around this is to use 'insert nothing'.

This also prevents the lockup mentioned in my prior mail, confirming my
suspicion about the possible cause.

[CinCVS] Cin 2.1 lockup on re-load

2006-09-13 Thread Kevin Brosius
Can anyone else repeat this Cin 2.1 lockup I am seeing?

Launch cin from an xterm
Load a source file (using a few minutes of dv here)
edit ~1min of video into the timeline
save your project
render the timeline to qt/linux (audio twos, video dv)
exit cin (confirm yes to save project)

restart cin
use the quick reload items to reload your project
the main cin window is hung, with the hourglass.  Pressing ctrl-c in the
xterm to kill cin.


I suspect it is a problem with trying to find the rendered clip, which
usually appears in the clips resource window.  Once that is rendered,
and you save the project, Cin seems to get confused trying to reload it.

Re: [CinCVS] compile error in bcsynchronous.C / ATI OpenGL2.0 implementation incomplete

2006-09-13 Thread Scott C. Frase
Hannes,
You beat me to the punch, as I've been in meetings all day and have not
had time to close out this issue.  So thanks for clarifying the
resolution.  

All you ATI folks, I'm sorry to say that you probably are in for a rude
surprise with ATIs' "OpenGL2.0" Linux driver implementation.  After 1
1/2 days of finally getting my ATI All in Wonder 9800 Pro to actually
use OpenGL and see it working well (5000FPS on glxgears), it was very
disheartening to see that ATI had not provided the proper 2.0 hooks for
Cinelerra to use.  

In light of this situation, today I went to B&H Photo and bought an
Nvidia 7800GS AGP, 512MB.  Twenty minutes after getting home, the card
was in the box, drivers were compiled, installed and working.  Fifteen
minutes after that, Cinelerra was compiled and I was using OpenGL2.0!
Yeehoo!!  And at twice the playback speed of what I was getting
previously with the ATI card.  I will report back on the performance of
this card once I actually USE it.
:)

For those who might find the troubleshooting conversation interesting,
the IRC chat log from yesterday is here:
http://cvs.cinelerra.org/irclog/index.php?file=2006-09-13.html

I learned quite a bit, not being an active C programmer.

By the way, that log is a font of information for folks who'd like to
know more about anything Cinelerra related.  I learned quite a bit just
by perusing the last few days of entries.  However, I find it hard to
get up at 3:30am EDT to join in! ;)  

Also, I'm considering pulling out and categorizing some relevant tips
from the past few months like this one from HermanR:
"You can get cool twinkle effects with animate blurs. Those are hard to
check out without test rendering..The most noticeable twinkles are when
the x blur and y blur vary independently, or in opposite direction. That
creates a wobbling deformation. Combine it with the wave plugin, and you
could get a fairly convincing water reflection simulation."

In my beginner's head, that's pure gold.

Thanks again to Hannes for all the help,
scott

It turned out that there is a problem with the fglrx driver (package 
ati-fglrx): It advertises OpenGL 2.0, but does not provide the required 
entrypoints in its libGL.so.1.

Furthermore, the x11-xorg-6.8.* package seems to be old enough not to provide 
OpenGL 2.0 headers; therefore, the build fails early.

The conclusion after our chat was that the ati-fglrx package for FC4 
advertises OpenGL 2.0 in glxinfo, but in fact lacks the necessary entry 
points in its libGL.so.1.2.

IMO, the first action to do is to redesign the arm icon. When I switched

That's because when the icon is selected, it becomes orange. But the
icon, when not selected, is red. If the "not selected" arm icon was
white on grey, highlighting it in red would make it far more visible.


 Using colour only to indicate on/off state is bad usability, and a
big no, no in UI design.  Colour blind users will be at a total loss!
We should either have a thorough discussion on how to make a widget
look like "on" or "off", or adopt the way popular widget toolkits do
it.

 One of the big problems with Cinelerra's user interface is the lack of
familiarity.  If Cinelerra used one of the major UI toolkits, most of
the widgets would look familiar, and users would recognise the on/off
states they had seen in other programs.

 Now, if I suggest starting a total rewrite from guicast to Gtk+, I
expect to get shot down.  However, we could consider making some of
the dialogs in Gtk, to get started.


 Final note: Does "arm" really ring a bell?  Would not "unlock"
make more sense as a label?

Mmmm, about Cinelerra's clipboard, I find it very frustrating (when
editing hundreds of keyframes) to do not be able to paste the keyframe
on the insertion point when there's a IN or OUT point defined on the
timeline...

I really would like that feature! My projects have tens of tracks, and I
often have to cut/paste a group of tracks. In fact, generally, the same
cut/paste operations are applied on the video and audio tracks...

The problem is that is considerably harder to implement this in easy-GUI
way, even if this way is known. Cinelerra's guicast library is not what
you need for quickly creating simple guis.

[CinCVS] Suggested GUI improvement; some notes from today's IRC meeting.

2006-09-13 Thread Herman Robak

  This afternoon (European time) Johannes Sixt (j6t),
Gustavo Iñigues (ga), Pierre Marc Dumuid (pmdumuid) and
I (hermanr) had an IRC meeting discussing Cinelerra's
user interface.


DV grabbing and export leaves a lot to be desired.
We needed more research to know where to start...

--

Timeline UI: better indication of arming, and play on/off.

 Some suggestions on how to singnalise status in more ways:

Darkening unarmed tracks (rejected, better ideas?)
Graying "don't play" tracks (inconclusive. maybe darkening?)
Changing the mouse pointer over unarmed tracks
Having the View menu turned into a panel
Cinelerra needs a status bar. (displaying what info?)

--

 Klipper and sound daemons keep causing new users grief.

* Klipper: Cinelerra's clipboard handling is wrong.  TODO: Fix it
* Sound daemons: display notification  TODO: add a status bar

--

  Tracks should be groupable, so that they will be (un)armed
in unison.  This will make it easier to keep audio and video
tracks in synch when they are moved around.  When media files
are imported, their audio and video tracks should be grouped
by default.

  To keep things simple, only adjacent tracks should be
groupable, with an obvious (un)group widget between tracks
to click on.

--

 Tracks are at least 32 pixels tall, and a video recording contain
3 tracks, taking up much screen estate.  Dealing with many tracks
gets unmanagable on normally sized screens; some more aggressive
collapsing features are needed.

j6t:
"so we don't need a menu, just an icon between tracks, only neighboring  
tracks are linked, and it means that they share the same armed/unarmed  
state"


There are two needs: Hiding and grouping

 Suggestion: if linked tracks are collapsed, one of them becomes the  
"master"

 (needs more research)

I don't mind that aspect too much; it's the fact that I didn't even
*identify* the wrench symbol as a control - especially because it sits
right next to an unmistakable control (the checkbox), and because there
is no colour difference between controls such as these and static dialog
elements (e.g. text).
Only when I moved the mouse cursor over it by accident, I realized that
it was a button ...

All the same, I *did* read about it when I started with Cinelerra
(without the "Secrets" manual it's virtually impossible to operate the
application efficiently) - but it was rather quickly forgotten when
trying to get to grips with the countless other, more important
features.

Good GUI design is not an easy thing at all - especially if it's
technicians who know the ins and outs doing the designing. What's
totally obvious to them, is often quite mystifying to novice users. And
then you have the hardcore Linux users, who go running to the command
line at the first appearance of the word "pipe" - "Ceci n'est pas une
pipe" - or is it? :-)

Anyway, I have everything working nicely now, so I'm one happy camper
(or should I say: camp moviemaker) :-)

 I think the wrench is a clear example of the many features of Cinelerra
that are only obvious once you know them.  To me, a wrench suggests  
"tweak".

Only expert options should be labeled "tweak".  It is highly misleading to
suggest that the codec choice is an expert setting and the choice of
container is all you need to know about!

Re: [CinCVS] Pipes question ...

2006-09-13 Thread Pierre Marc Dumuid

Heh,
There are actually "pipe presets" that cinelerra demonstrates  how to 
use it..


Cinelerra actually starts whatever program is specified in the textbox, 
and pipes the YUV data into that program.


Basically, what you place in the textbox next to the "Use Pipe" check 
box is the actual program that receives the pipe)

In regards to the statement, make a bash script that contains:

#!/bin/bash
yuvcorrect -v 0 -T INTERLACED_BOTTOM_FIRST | mpeg2enc -v 0 -r 32 -4 1 
-2 1 -D 10 -g 15 -G 15 -q 5 -b 9400 -f 8 -o $1



calling yencode.sh
(possibly needing a chmod +x on it)

Then place yencode.sh in the textbox.





"Export as an YUV4MPEG stream and use a pipe to encode the YUV stream :
 yuvcorrect -v 0 -T INTERLACED_BOTTOM_FIRST | mpeg2enc -v 0 -r 32 -4 1 
 -2 1 -D 10 -g 15 -G 15 -q 5 -b 9400 -f 8 -o $1 


 Export an AC3 sound stream at 224 kbps

 Mplex everything with :
 mplex -f 8 -V audio.ac3 video.m2v -o movie.mpeg"

And there are many more references to piping - quite justified, as it
prevents *huge* temporary files from being created (the YUV4MPEG stream
is about 1GB per minute of video). Otrherwise, one would need at least
60GB of free HD space at all times for every hour of video rendering.


Alas, there's one thing I somehow don't understand: how exactly do I
pipe the output from Cinelerra to the yuvcorrect line?

I thought I understood pipes (they're equally simple as useful), but I
can't seem to make it work here. I tried the following procedure:

[CLI]:   mkfifo cinepipe
[Cinelerra]: Render to YUV4MPEG Stream - file name: cinepipe
[CLI]:   yuvcorrect ... -o video.m2v < cinepipe

However, Cinelerra says it's busy rendering, but it just sits there and
does nothing; nor does top show any activity in the yuvcorrect/mpeg2enc
department.
I suspect that Cinelerra somehow has trouble with named pipes - if I
replace the last CLI command with cat cinepipe > /dev/null, there's
still no progress in Cinelerra.

I'm pretty certain that the solution is *really* simple - but I'm afraid
that I'm even simpler - too simple in fact to see it. Google turned up
lots of tips about plumbing, and the usual explanations and examples
about the | symbol, but nothing much useful on using pipes to process
(stream) output from GUI applications.


Thanks in advance for any explanation,

Regards,

Richard Rasker

[CinCVS] Pipes question ...

2006-09-13 Thread Richard Rasker
Hi,

I'm trying to get better control over the quality of an MPEG result,
found this one (among many similar solutions) in the mailing list
archives:

"Export as an YUV4MPEG stream and use a pipe to encode the YUV stream :
 yuvcorrect -v 0 -T INTERLACED_BOTTOM_FIRST | mpeg2enc -v 0 -r 32 -4 1 
 -2 1 -D 10 -g 15 -G 15 -q 5 -b 9400 -f 8 -o $1 

 Export an AC3 sound stream at 224 kbps

 Mplex everything with :
 mplex -f 8 -V audio.ac3 video.m2v -o movie.mpeg"

And there are many more references to piping - quite justified, as it
prevents *huge* temporary files from being created (the YUV4MPEG stream
is about 1GB per minute of video). Otrherwise, one would need at least
60GB of free HD space at all times for every hour of video rendering.


Alas, there's one thing I somehow don't understand: how exactly do I

department.
I suspect that Cinelerra somehow has trouble with named pipes - if I
replace the last CLI command with cat cinepipe > /dev/null, there's
still no progress in Cinelerra.

I'm pretty certain that the solution is *really* simple - but I'm afraid
that I'm even simpler - too simple in fact to see it. Google turned up

work, ie. in the dialog (Title --> Show), there are latin-1 chars, while in
Compositor are latin-2, but it is cumbersome.

Maybe it would be required to  change locale to latin-2 which is not very

[CinCVS] [Bug 305] New: utf-8 support

2006-09-13 Thread bugzilla-daemon
http://bugs.cinelerra.org/show_bug.cgi?id=305

   Summary: utf-8 support
   Product: Cinelerra
   Version: 2.0
  Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
  Severity: normal
  Priority: Medium
 Component: Effects/Transitions
AssignedTo: cinelerra@skolelinux.no
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Hi!

When I was exploring Cinelerra's ability to add titles, I discovered that there
is no support for utf-8 (Unicode) encoding in Title's Encoding combo box, there
is no support for utf-8 encoding and if I choose eg. latin-2 encoding for
entering Croatian chars, all I get are latin-1 characters.

Since utf-8 encodong & Unicode are more & more present on today's desktops, here
I'm humbly submitting feature request whether it is possible to add utf-8
support to Cinelerra?

Sincerely,
Gour

look at the topic "play won't stop" in august, "cinelerra hungs on

"play stop freeze prob" in march, "preview does not stop on amd64" in

"Playback not stopping" in october ...

it is extremely easy to find in google, entering "cinelerra playback
