I.e. create file sample#.avi

Run vcs on sample#.avi -> sample#.avi.png is created.
Run vcs again. sample#.avi-1.png should be created, but sed generates an error.

HDR isn’t well supported as reported by remlap and ThaDr.

Hi I am trying to thumbnail some HDR content is there anyway to insert ffmpeg filters in
-vf zscale=t=linear:npl=100,format=gbrpf32le,zscale=p=bt709,tonemap=tonemap=mobius:desat=0,zscale=t=bt709:m=bt709:r=tv,format=yuv420p

Thanks

I’m also trying to do some HDR content and pass the -vf info to ffmpeg. I can’t get it to work even using a wrapper script.

It always comes up with awk errors, starting with “unterminated regexp”.

Is there any chance of updating vcs to support manual passing of those -vf arguments to ffmpeg?

HDR content is very common nowadays…

I’m using vcs 1.13.2 on ubuntu and ended up doing it by adding the line:

-vf ‘zscale=t=linear:npl=100,format=gbrpf32le,zscale=p=bt709,tonemap=tonemap=hable:desat=0,zscale=t=bt709:m=bt709:r=tv,format=yuv420p’ \

at line 2203, in the ffmpeg_capture() function where it sets the ffmpeg command line options.

Couldn’t work out how to do it with a wrapper script.

Meta-task depending on tasks scheduled for the 1.4 release.

Asked by Bob on the blog

Would it be possible to somehow specify to only screenshot half of the video image (for 180 side-by-side VR videos)?

Or would this require new features to be added to the VCS?

It just makes more sense

Useful for debugging, likely not useful for users since the command-line already overrides configurable arguments

-o is a GNU extension, supported in Linux and FreeBSD

Unsupported in SunOS, OpenBSD?

Not feasible in the actual status bar, but can be done in the notification.

Gradle allows to define fields on the generated class BuildConfig. This should be enough to discard the current per-build-type classes.

Example: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24518940/custom-fields-for-a-build-type-in-gradle

In the past BuildConfig.DEBUG wasn’t reliable (when combining Eclipse and ADT), but on Android Studio with Gradle it can be used safely and hence there’s no need to duplicate the functionality.

As of 2019-07 usage below KitKat is anecdotal:

2.3.x: 0.04%
4.0.x: 0.07%
4.1: 0.86%
4.2: 1.35%
4.3: 0.82%

2.3 to 4.3: 3.14%

4.4: 6.28%
5.0: 4.33%

Should allow to disable it in both configuration and command-line.

Should provide an easy way to generate a new configuration file based on the provided command-line arguments.

Original report by Dougn Redhammer

vcs hangs with some RM files.

Tracing shows it gets stuck in mplayer_identify.

MPlayer can play the files fine from the terminal. Although it exits with «MPlayer interrupted by signal 11 in module: uninit_vcodec».

I can reproduce the abrupt termination, it happens when using Real’s native decoder (w64codecs, /usr/lib/codecs/drvc.so). Using FFMpeg’s decoder (MPlayer’s -vc ffrv30) MPlayer exits normally.

I can’t reproduce the hang either way.
