Material design icons are supposed to be white according to comments found online and most apps.

(I can’t find an actual upstream reference) Found at http://www.androiddocs.com/design/style/iconography.html

Dark icons are displayed white in practice.

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%

Interesting feature, experimentally implemented in mtn

Rendering on RTL devices is does not work properly due to alignment problems.

Second, my dvd-drive is useless atm, but i remember previously piping dvd-ouput from mplayer into ffmpeg via a fifo and finding the info generated to be much better than mplayer-alone – for one thing, it won’t ‘downmix’ 6-channel audio automatically. Don’t know if that would be useful to you. The syntax was something like:-

mkfifo piped.vob &&
mplayer dvd:// -dumpstream -dumpfile piped.vob & \
ffmpeg -i piped.vob

…See what you think…

Version of ffmpeg: ffmpeg (CVS-060515)

See http://libav.org/, Jan 27 2012.
Also http://libav.org/index.html#fftools_rename for changes to the syntax.

Must change to avprobe/ffprobe and/or avconv.

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.

As reported by Dirk Reiners (paraphrased)

Files incorrectly reporting too short length (unlike too long), pass the safe_length_measure check ⇒ This prevents correcting length.

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

Unsupported in SunOS, OpenBSD?

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.

With the new script I'm getting issues the following error:
No compatible version of getopt in path, can't continue.
Enhanced getopt (i.e. GNU getopt) is required

The homebrew's version of vcs has this at line 186:
declare GETOPT=/opt/homebrew/opt/gnu-getopt/bin/getopt
While Toni's just uses whatever is on path:
declare GETOPT=getopt
… which on macOS is non-gnu version of getopt.

Added by X in comments: https://outlyer.net/2019-11-26:vcs-1-13-4-released/#comment-53401

The issue is on line 186. Brew version has this:
declare GETOPT=/usr/local/opt/gnu-getopt/bin/getopt
The trunk version has:
declare GETOPT=getopt
When I backport the most important change you did in the trunk version ('`fx:image.mean` > `fx:mean`') then indeed the error messages on '.mean*100' are gone.

When the resulting contact sheet is too thin, the meta-information header is cramped and fields overlap.

Version of mplayer: mplayer (1.0pre8cvs)

/dev/shm isn’t really intended as an alternate temporary location, and VCS’ temporary files can easily grow too large for it too.

As a possible alternative offer a first-run choice of temp-dir (maybe suggesting /dev/shm).

Reports that the app won’t auto load despite having the option enabled.

Reported on Oreo.

Presumably related to FS#370.
