Newer IM appears to use recognise system fonts by default. Using some common-place good looking font like DejaVu would be preferable.

It’s supposed to fail silently, at least accordingly to http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/#fonts but on my system it prints an error. Probably not worth supressing

Introduce new names in 1.12 (this)

Remove old names in 1.13 or 1.14 (FS#151)

Doing this better will remove from of the duplication with overrides, specially on the filename font/non-latin stuff

When a timestamp is present in more than one set (highlights/std/extended) there’s no need to re-capture it.

See also  FS#123 

Currently the extended set always contains the standard captures. It might be nice to add some time-shift to them so that they’re different.

See also  FS#122

Safe length measuring creates extra temporary directories that aren’t removed properly

i.e.

interval=5m

End offset will be set to a small percentage of the length (5.5%? –5m for 90m–), applicable always by default, instead of a fixed value

MIN_LENGTH_FOR_END_OFFSET was deprecated in 1.11 and will be ignored starting with 1.12.

The new behaviour is to apply by default a small end offset always, based on the video length. Users will be able to disable this with either -E0 or config option end_offset=0

With the introduction of profiles vcs will need directories to place them.

Using vcs-nix might be safer since vcs is too short and too meaningful (Version Control System) to hijack it safely.

Candidates:

• Site-wide: /usr/share/vcs/profiles, /usr/local/share/vcs/profiles/
• User-local: ~/.vcs/profiles/

With the introduction of ~/.vcs/ (or ~/.vcs-nix/) it makes sense moving local configurations there. The older ~/.vcs.conf will still be accepted.

Load order:

1. /etc/vcs.conf
2. ~/.vcs.conf
3. ~/.vcs/vcs.conf
4. ./vcs.conf

shoehorn is most probably no longer needed (or even working) with the complexity vcs has gained over time

So that the syntax and options are clearer.

-I does use it

Configuration options that will trigger a change of all fonts, background and foreground settings respectively

Command-line arguments for DVD handling should be consistent with handling of video files, e.g.:

$ vcs --dvd --dvd-title 1 /dev/dvd

with dvd-title being optional, instead of

$ vcs --dvd /dev/dvd 1

Complete manpage.

font_filename is ignored in 1.12

An alternative in the form of (boolean) nonlatin_filenames or similar should be added.

This is a meta-item depending on bugs/features required to complete before releasing vcs 1.12.1

This is a meta-item depending on bugs/features required to complete before releasing vcs 1.12.2.

1.12.2 might be skipped and its items pushed back to 1.13.
