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…

When a frame evasion is tried and given up, the chosen timestamp should be the original instead of the last attempt

The spinner, used to show progress adds a lot of overkill just to give some feedback while working

Timestamps could use some tweaking: e.g. centering on their background and rounded corners

Possibly using a dynamic ZIP file

See http://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/zip/ZipOutputStream.html

This is necessary for ZIP files constructed on the fly.

The current webserver implementation doesn’t support that.

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?

From feedback, by Rownah Adriano:

[...] Can you please put an option to turn off the notification if mobile data is turned off?

To mimic the original way of working

From feedback, by Martin Buch:

Would like an option to only display status bar icon when roaming. Its really only when roaming I need this information as the stock network type indication is replaced with an ‘R’ on my Nexus 6P (when roaming).

Many phones seem to do that.

Once the user has chosen to use only a set of icons, allow them to choose which of the two.

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.

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

Theming support as initially intended ( FS#237 ) is not possible.

With the switch to vector graphics adding alternative icons becomes fairly “cheap” app-size-wise and many users have requested alternative ones. This task tracks these suggestions.

Recap of related suggestions:

  Needs to indicate using LTE icon not just 4g icon good app if you add this I will make it a 5
  
  
• Jon Manilenio 29/04/2016 on Google Play
  Nice I wish there were more designs though.
  
  
• Miles Vino 23/04/2017 on Google Play
  Appreciate this handy app! Please consider a simpler icon, without the square, so it blends with Google’s material design. Thanks!
  
  
• MJ Cortez 02/06/2017 on Google Play
  4G should be displayed as LTE instead of [4]
  
  
• Prince Priyam Borah 08/08/2017 on Google Play
  Plz add the stylish 4G logo. Your app only shows 4. Else, everything is ok.

Please Add 4g+ icon !

Due to the use of ~ in the revision tag

finger is not installed/enabled by default in at least FC12. Replace it with something better like grepping /etc/passwd

Reported by Terry Parrott

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

Reported on Oreo.

Presumably related to FS#370.
