While the long descriptions were useful, keeping the updated and translated is pretty much impossible. Technology moves fast and not everyone that translates the project knows a lot about technology.
Therefore the long descriptions have now been replaced with a button that opens the wiki page for the feature instead. This should drastically reduce the number of help cases, and improve the translation coverage at the same time.
The new libOBS API allows us to directly access the underlying API instead of having to mess around in memory. By using it we can avoid crashing in case the compiler for it is different, or in case the actual back end structure changes.
Additionally the mostly unimplemented and unused options have also been removed, which streamlines the use of this class even further and reduces both shader and code complexity.
Finally by optimizing the use of the internal render target we can achieve a speed up of up to 3000% over the old way, allowing for many more mipmapped filters.
This header includes all common data between headers used in the plugin. This should improve cross-platform compiling support whenever possible, as all platform-dependent common includes and defines can be done here.
Caching the output of a source is only necessary for really expensive to render sources, so it is disabled by default now. Thanks to that, most Source Mirrors are now "free" instead of requiring two context switches and a texture, while those really expensive can be manually set to cache.
The scaling mode is also set to disabled instead of point when rescaling is off to further improve performance. The previous method would incorrectly cause an extra texture to be used.
Additionally we now have support for debug markers for graphics debugging, allowing us to exactly tell apart improvements in rendering cost for this source.
This is a massive improvement to stability and safety when using the plugin, as all exceptions should now no longer be leaked into C controlled code, which can't actually handle exceptions at all.
Warnings fixed:
* Potentially throwing exception during library load.
* Possibly throwing function passed to C.
* Statement does nothing.
* Variable is initialized but not referenced.
* Variable overloads variable in parent scope.
Adds a new property to control the alignment of the source within the calculated boundary when rescaling the source. Also fixes the permanently left aligned mirror at the same time.
This filter allows the use of another source as a mask, allowing complex filter graphs and trippy effects, such as creating a text source with three animated videos, each using a different color channel as the mask.
Fixes#18.
MipGenerator.Strength was renamed to MipGenerator.Intensity, which better fits the actual intention of the property. Additionally all the mipmap generator options are now correctly named.
The filters are always the same for every language and should not be translated, instead only the file type should be translated. This way bad translations will not affect the options that the user can select.
The Transform filter will now no longer render the child source more than once per tick(), resulting in an overall speed up for heavy sources. This also applies to mipmapping and shape rendering. Any other calls to video_render will instead just use the cached texture.
Additionally the crash on exit has been fixed which was caused by strings.hpp containing static const char*s and using these directly in obs calls. Instead we now use #define for those property names
While Linux was not an original goal of the project, it should still be supported out of the box. Therefore a number of changes are contained in this changeset:
- All C++ .h files were renamed to .hpp.
- All C includes (<....h>) were replaced with C++ includes (<c...>) and missing includes were added.
- std::memset and std::memcpy was replaced with memset and memcpy.
- All anonymous structs were removed where necessary.
- `extern "C"` was removed where it wasn't needed.
- #pragma warning was placed behind an #ifdef _MSC_VER
- The macros for `min`, `max` and `clamp` were removed as they were not used.
- `-fpedantic` was added to the GCC flags for bitmask support.
- `gs::rendertarget_op` is now declared before use.
- std::exception(const char*) was replaced with std::runtime_error(const char*).
- Added aligned_alloc and aligned_free macros for GCC and MSVC support.
- Replaced use of `sprintf_s` with `snprintf`.
- Placed additional guards around windows only code.
Additonally some changes were made that do not affect Linux:
- `NOMINMAX` and `NOINOUT` were removed.
