- Display additional information about channels
and buffer type (float/byte).
- Don't show frame number beyong sequence length.
- Also fixed issues with footage length calculation,
so it's pronbably will be needed to reload some
of existing footages.
|
|
- Nearest interpolation was always used when there's
no rotation for stabilization. Was a failure of
optimization heuristic.
- Made 2d stabilization frame acquiring threaded.
This function is only used for display and sequencer
which will only benefit of threads here.
- Fixed bug introduced in r48749 which lead to
re-making stable frame on every redraw.
|
|
- When changing clip in clip editor, remove all frames
from it's cache to free memory for new clip.
- When changing proxy render settings, free cache as well.
|
|
Made it an operator instead of automatic prefetching.
Filling the whole memory with frames is not always
desired behavior.
Now prefetching is available via P-key, or from Clip
panel in toolbox or from Clip menu.
Also enabled prefetching for non-proxied movies.
|
|
When trying to load file below actual sequence range
(like trying to load file for scene frame 10 when clip's
start frame is 20) first frame from file sequence is used.
Before this change first file used to be loaded for every
scene frame below start frame, which polluted memory with
unwanted data.
Now first frame would be loaded only once in this case.

This commit basically implements frames prefetching for
movie clip datablock.
Number of frames to be prefetched is controlled in User
Preferences, System tab, Prefetch Frames option.
Currently prefetching is destructive-less for movie cache,
meaning mo frames will be removed from the cache when while
prefetching. This is because it's half of simplier to
implement, but it also makes sense from tracking point of
view -- we could want to playback in both directions and
removing frames from behind time cursor is not always a
good idea.
Anyway, smarter prefetching strategy could be developed
later.
Some implementation notes:
- Added MEM_CacheLimiter_get_memory_in_use function to get
memory usage of specified memory limiter.
- Fixed prototype of MEM_CacheLimiter_get_maximum which
was simply wrong (used wrong data type for output).
- Added some utility functions to movie clip and movie
cache for direct cache interaction and obtaining cache
statistics.
- Prefetching is implemented using general jobs system.
which is invoking from clip draw function.
- Prefetcing will stop as soon other job or playback starts.
This is done from performance point of view. Jobs will
likely require lots of CPU power and better to provide
whole CPU to it.
Playback is a bit more complicated case. For jpeg sequence
playback prefetching while paying back is nice. But trying
to prefetch heavy exr images and doing color space
conversion slows down both playback and prefetching.
TODO:
- Think of better policy of dealing with already cached frames
(like when cached frames from other clips prevents frames
from current clip to be prefetched)
- Currently a bit funky redraw notification happens from
prefetch job. Perhaps own ND_ is better to have here.
- Hiding clip while prefetch is active in theory shall stop
prefetching job.
- Having multiple clips opened on file load will prefetch
frames for only one of them.

PyNodes opens up the node system in Blender to scripters and adds a number of UI-level improvements.
=== Dynamic node type registration ===
Node types can now be added at runtime, using the RNA registration mechanism from python. This enables addons such as render engines to create a complete user interface with nodes.
Examples of how such nodes can be defined can be found in my personal wiki docs atm [1] and as a script template in release/scripts/templates_py/custom_nodes.py [2].
=== Node group improvements ===
Each node editor now has a tree history of edited node groups, which allows opening and editing nested node groups. The node editor also supports pinning now, so that different spaces can be used to edit different node groups simultaneously. For more ramblings and rationale see (really old) blog post on code.blender.org [3].
The interface of node groups has been overhauled. Sockets of a node group are no longer displayed in columns on either side, but instead special input/output nodes are used to mirror group sockets inside a node tree. This solves the problem of long node lines in groups and allows more adaptable node layout. Internal sockets can be exposed from a group by either connecting to the extension sockets in input/output nodes (shown as empty circle) or by adding sockets from the node property bar in the "Interface" panel. Further details such as the socket name can also be changed there.

Handle sequences in a special case for dealing with
sequence sources.
Namely handle separate frames in separate threads,
but do disk read from a critical section since HDD
is not so friendly with lots threads requesting for
data from it.
Makes proxy building much faster than it was before.
|
|
This commit implements multi-threaded calculation of frames
when building proxies. Both scaling and undistortion steps
are now threaded.
Frames and proxy resolution are still handled one-by-one,
saving files after every single step. So if HDD is not so
fast, this commit could have not so much benefit.
Internal changes:
- Added IMB_scaleImBuf_threaded which scales given image
buffer in multiple threads and uses bilinear filtering.
- libmv's camera intrinsics now have SetThreads() method
which is used to specify how many OpenMP threads to use
for buffer distortion/undistortion.
And yeah, this code is using OpenMP for threading.
- Reshuffled a bit libmv-capi calls and added function
BKE_tracking_distortion_set_threads to specify number
of threads used by intrinscis.

Crash happened when sequence image failed to load.
|
|
Issue happened for scene. movie clip and mask strips, which contains
pointers to datablocks which are freeing on loading new file.
Also, scene strip would crash when pasted from clipboard after scene
was unlinked from file.
|
|
Such kind of image sequences wouldn't be displayed still
and supporting them would take some additional time, but
for now it'll be no memory leak on attempt opening such
images.
|
|
alpha was used for them which doesn't work for cleaned footage stored
in EXR file format.
Perhaps we need to support configurable alpha mode for clips, but
that's for later (maybe even after release),
|
|
Issue was caused by couple of circumstances:
- Normal Map node requires tesselated faces to compute tangent space
- All temporary meshes needed for Cycles export were adding to G.main
- Undo pushes would temporary set meshes tessfaces to NULL
- Moving node will cause undo push and tree re-evaluate fr preview
All this leads to threading conflict between preview render and undo
system.
Solved it in way that all temporary meshes are adding to that exact
Main which was passed to Cycles via BlendData. This required couple
of mechanic changes like adding extra parameter to *_add() functions
and adding some *_ex() functions to make it possible RNA adds objects
to Main passed to new() RNA function.
This was tricky to pass Main to RNA function and IMO that's not so
nice to pass main to function, so ended up with such decision:
- Object.to_mesh() will add temp mesh to G.main
- Added Main.meshes.new_from_object() which does the same as to_mesh,
but adds temporary mesh to specified Main.
So now all temporary meshes needed for preview render would be added
to preview_main which does not conflict with undo pushes.
Viewport render shall not be an issue because object sync happens from
main thread in this case.
It could be some issues with final render, but that's not so much
likely to happen, so shall be fine.
Thanks to Brecht for review!

This is probably versioning issue happened when both trunk and tomato
were mixed to work on the same file.
Anyway, there're few files here locally and it's probably other users
do have the same files, so lets keep things safe here :)
|
|
Use IMB_testiffname to check whether file could be handled by ImBuf or
whether it should be handled by anim routines.
It solves the issue when file without extension is used for movie clip.

Undistorted rendering with original footage settings does not require proxies to be enabled.
|
|
- movieclip unlink didn't clear node ID pointers from the scene (leaving dangling pointers).
- mask datablock unlink was clearning references from scene nodes twice.
|
|
- Ignore clip's offset for movie clip sequencer strip
|

Replace old color pipeline which was supporting linear/sRGB color spaces
only with OpenColorIO-based pipeline.
This introduces two configurable color spaces:
- Input color space for images and movie clips. This space is used to convert
images/movies from color space in which file is saved to Blender's linear
space (for float images, byte images are not internally converted, only input
space is stored for such images and used later).
This setting could be found in image/clip data block settings.
- Display color space which defines space in which particular display is working.
This settings could be found in scene's Color Management panel.
When render result is being displayed on the screen, apart from converting image
to display space, some additional conversions could happen.
This conversions are:
- View, which defines tone curve applying before display transformation.
These are different ways to view the image on the same display device.
For example it could be used to emulate film view on sRGB display.
- Exposure affects on image exposure before tone map is applied.
- Gamma is post-display gamma correction, could be used to match particular
display gamma.
- RGB curves are user-defined curves which are applying before display
transformation, could be used for different purposes.
All this settings by default are only applying on render result and does not
affect on other images. If some particular image needs to be affected by this
transformation, "View as Render" setting of image data block should be set to
truth. Movie clips are always affected by all display transformations.
This commit also introduces configurable color space in which sequencer is
working. This setting could be found in scene's Color Management panel and
it should be used if such stuff as grading needs to be done in color space
different from sRGB (i.e. when Film view on sRGB display is use, using VD16
space as sequencer's internal space would make grading working in space
which is close to the space using for display).
Some technical notes:
- Image buffer's float buffer is now always in linear space, even if it was
created from 16bit byte images.
- Space of byte buffer is stored in image buffer's rect_colorspace property.
- Profile of image buffer was removed since it's not longer meaningful.
- OpenGL and GLSL is supposed to always work in sRGB space. It is possible
to support other spaces, but it's quite large project which isn't so
much important.
- Legacy Color Management option disabled is emulated by using None display.
It could have some regressions, but there's no clear way to avoid them.
- If OpenColorIO is disabled on build time, it should make blender behaving
in the same way as previous release with color management enabled.
More details could be found at this page (more details would be added soon):

C with gcc.
helps for finding unused functions and making functions static, also did some minor code cleanup.
|
|
|
|
BKE_utildefines is now unused but keep incase we want to add defines there later.
|
|
to be reset to default image size instead of it's actual size.
|

image viewer should be generally usable now though still some TODO's left.
|

Replace pseudo-LRU approach of determining which buffer
to remove when running out of space allowed for cache
with approach which would remove the frame which is most
far away from newly added frame.
This is still a bit tricky because it's impossible to
distinguish which frame to delete in situation of:
CCCC...CC
^
it's either user wants to extend left segment of cached
frames and buffers from right segment should be removed
or he wants to join this two segments and in that case
buffers from right segment should be removed.
Would need a bit more investigation which situation
is more common in general usecase.
Additional changes:
- Cleanup some memutil files (which are familiar to cache limiter)
- Add option to make moviecache verbose. If DEBUG_MESSAGES is
defined in moviecache.c detailed logs would be printed to the
console.
- Movie caches are now named which helps reading debug messages.

when specific circumstances are met.
Mainly issue was caused by checking ImBuf pointers, which used to fail
when some post-processing flags are changed. This was caused by the
fact that freeing old ImBuf and allocating new one could lead to new
ImBuf have the same pointer as previous one, which confuses cache.
|

Reported by brothermechanic, thanks!

return valid marker. If not -- let blender crash, because that means
something went really bad and silencing this isn't good idea.
Also made mask parenting to tracking data aware of clip's start frame.

- Re-arrange functions in headers and implementation file to make them
more grouped by entity they're operating with. Also order of functions
in implementation file should match order of functions in header for
easier navigation.
- Rename some functions to match conventions of naming public functions.
- Some code de-duplication, still some room for improvements tho.
- Split main 2D tracking functions into smaller steps to make it more clear.
Accidentally OpenMP was disabled in some of previous commits, re-enable it.

In contrast to start_frame (which affects on where footage actually
starts to play and also affects on all data associated with a clip
such as motion tracking, reconstruction and so on) this slider only
affects on a way how frame number is mapping to a filename, without
touching any kind of tracking data.
The formula is:
file_name = clip_file_name + frame_offset - (start_frame - 1)
|
|
Added option to use Grease Pencil datablock as a mask for pattern
when doing motion tracking. Option could be found in Tracking Settings
panel.
All strokes would be rasterized separately from each other and every
stroke is treating as a closed spline.
Also added option to apply a mask on track preview which is situated
just after B/B/W channel button under track preview.

===========================================
Major list of changes done in tomato branch:
- Add a planar tracking implementation to libmv
This adds a new planar tracking implementation to libmv. The
tracker is based on Ceres[1], the new nonlinear minimizer that
myself and Sameer released from Google as open source. Since
the motion model is more involved, the interface is
different than the RegionTracker interface used previously
in Blender.
The start of a C API in libmv-capi.{cpp,h} is also included.
- Migrate from pat_{min,max} for markers to 4 corners representation
Convert markers in the movie clip editor / 2D tracker from using
pat_min and pat_max notation to using the a more general, 4-corner
representation.
There is still considerable porting work to do; in particular
sliding from preview widget does not work correct for rotated
markers.
All other areas should be ported to new representation:
* Added support of sliding individual corners. LMB slide + Ctrl
would scale the whole pattern
* S would scale the whole marker, S-S would scale pattern only
* Added support of marker's rotation which is currently rotates
only patterns around their centers or all markers around median,
Rotation or other non-translation/scaling transformation of search
area doesn't make sense.
* Track Preview widget would display transformed pattern which
libmv actually operates with.
- "Efficient Second-order Minimization" for the planar tracker
This implements the "Efficient Second-order Minimization"
scheme, as supported by the existing translation tracker.
This increases the amount of per-iteration work, but
decreases the number of iterations required to converge and
also increases the size of the basin of attraction for the
optimization.
- Remove the use of the legacy RegionTracker API from Blender,
and replaces it with the new TrackRegion API. This also
adds several features to the planar tracker in libmv:
* Do a brute-force initialization of tracking similar to "Hybrid"
mode in the stable release, but using all floats. This is slower
but more accurate. It is still necessary to evaluate if the
performance loss is worth it. In particular, this change is
necessary to support high bit depth imagery.
* Add support for masks over the search window. This is a step
towards supporting user-defined tracker masks. The tracker masks
will make it easy for users to make a mask for e.g. a ball.
Not exposed into interface yet/
* Add Pearson product moment correlation coefficient checking (aka
"Correlation" in the UI. This causes tracking failure if the
tracked patch is not linearly related to the template.
* Add support for warping a few points in addition to the supplied
points. This is useful because the tracking code deliberately
does not expose the underlying warp representation. Instead,
warps are specified in an aparametric way via the correspondences.
- Replace the old style tracker configuration panel with the
new planar tracking panel. From a users perspective, this means:
* The old "tracking algorithm" picker is gone. There is only 1
algorithm now. We may revisit this later, but I would much
prefer to have only 1 algorithm. So far no optimization work
has been done so the speed is not there yet.
* There is now a dropdown to select the motion model. Choices:
* Translation
* Translation, rotation
* Translation, scale
* Translation, rotation, scale
* Affine
* Perspective
* The old "Hybrid" mode is gone; instead there is a toggle to
enable or disable translation-only tracker initialization. This
is the equivalent of the hyrbid mode before, but rewritten to work
with the new planar tracking modes.
* The pyramid levels setting is gone. At a future date, the planar
tracker will decide to use pyramids or not automatically. The
pyramid setting was ultimately a mistake; with the brute force
initialization it is unnecessary.
- Add light-normalized tracking
Added the ability to normalize patterns by their average value while
tracking, to make them invariant to global illumination changes.

render while frame is grayscaled.
Also corrected some typos in movieclip.

This prevents high memory usage by non-proxied frames when doing mask parenting.
Description from code:
Originally was needed to support image sequences with different image dimensions,
which might be useful for such things as reconstruction of unordered image sequence,
or painting/rotoscoping of non-equal-sized images, but this ended up in unneeded
cache lookups and even unwanted non-proxied files loading when doing mask parenting,
so let's disable this for now and assume image sequence consists of images with equal sizes
|
|
Now it's indicates at which scene frame number movie clip starts playing back.
This this setting is still belongs to clip datavlock and used by all users of
clip such as movie compositor nodes, constraints and so.
After long discussion and thoughts about this it was decided that this would
match image's current behavior (which initially seen a bit crappy), but that's
actually allows:
- Keep semantics of start frame in image and clip datablocks in sync
- Allows to support features like support of loading image sequences
with crappy numbers in suffix which doesn't fit long int.
- Allows to eliminate extra boolean checkbox to control such kind of offset.
Hopefully from pipeline POV it wouldn't hurt because idea of having this things
implemented in original way was working only if sequence before processing
started naming form 001.

automatic start frame number
Number of start frame in opened image sequence used to be distinguished automatically
in a way that file name used on open would be displayed at scene frame #1.
But sometimes it's useful to have it manually configurable (like in cases when you're
processing image sequence and replacing clip's filepath to postprocessed image sequence
and want new clip to show at the same frame range as it was rendered from).
Added Custom Start Frame flag to movie clip (could be accessed from Footage panel in
clip editor) and Start Frame which means number of frame from sequence which would
be displayed at scene frame #1.
For example if you've got clip pointing to file render_00100.png and Start Frame of 100
this file would be displayed at scene frame #1, if Start Frame is 1 then this image
would be displayed at scene frame #100,
|
|
it's not actually helps, but only confuses system when using openexr movie clips.
|
|
replace do prefix with do_ for bool vars.
|
|
- Fixed suddenly disappearing preview image from track widget
- Also suddenly stopping tracking should be fixed now
Both issues were caused by mixing working with floats and bytes and
in some cases it was wrong or missed checks done for this.
