2011-07-21 Thread neXyon
Hi! Sorry for the late reply, but I had no internet for 3 days. Lars: The problem is that the Data API in blender doesn't have such mutexes and as such isn't thread safe, I guess making blender thread safe in this way, requires a GSoC project or even more on its own. Knapp: This is not about i

[Bf-committers] Help needed! Animation problems for 3D Audio GSoC

2011-07-17 Thread neXyon
Hi guys! There's a serious problem with the way how animation works in regard to audio. The main problem is, that the animation system pushes the output, so it sets the data, renders a frame, advances to next frame (setting the data there) and renders again and so on, this works pretty good for

Hi, I've marked those with NO mostly sure that they are not needed and could be disabled. The others marked with NO? are at least not used for encoding but disabling them would disable some input formats. Question is if we really need to support everything?! Regards Am 2011-04-24 22:04, schri

Hi! We should definitely update the one for static linking to the linux release. Most distributions so far don't have libav in their standard repositories yet, so most distros and devs will still link against ffmpeg, also there's no libav build for win64 yet so we'll have to wait for that too
