New issue Great app, have always used it. Just upgraded to marshmallow and now it won’t even start. What’s up with that? From Android 5 I had problems, plus doesn’t support dual Sim phones. This is the new direction, twin Sim phones. Please work it out.

385 | vcs | General | Bug Report | High | Handle rotation of video files rotated via metadata | Researching | |
1.14 |
Task Description
Originally reported by Pär: https://outlyer.net/2019-11-26:vcs-1-13-4-released/comment-page-1/#comment-60689
Another thing that is a little bit annoying, but isn't a very big deal, is the fact that videos made from a phone where the image is rotated in metadata, doesn't produce a correct aspect ratio. For example, a video that is stored as 1920×1080 (16:9), but shown as 1080×1920 (9:16), due to metadata rotation, vcs will create thumbnails in 1920×1080 aspect ratio (16:9) but show them rotated correctly, which means the image at 9:16 gets squashed to fit into 16:9. Like I said, not a very huge deal, but it looks somewhat silly and it would be great if it was possible to fix. I've tried to see if I could set the aspect parameter but it doesn't seem to do much when the rotation is made in metadata. Metadata usually state something like: > > "`bash Side data: displaymatrix: rotation of -90.00 degrees "`

/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 ).

Task Description
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
Added by Darko in comments: https://outlyer.net/2019-11-26:vcs-1-13-4-released/#comment-52719
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.

384 | vcs | General | TO-DO | Medium | Use magick command with ImageMagick 7 | Requires testing | |
1.14 |
Task Description
Originally reported by Pär: https://outlyer.net/2019-11-26:vcs-1-13-4-released/comment-page-1/#comment-60674
Recently got an update of ImageMagick:
$ magick --version
Version: ImageMagick 7.1.1-33 Q16-HDRI x86_64 22263 https://imagemagick.org
Copyright: (C) 1999 ImageMagick Studio LLC
License: https://imagemagick.org/script/license.php
Features: Cipher DPC HDRI Modules OpenCL OpenMP(4.5)
Delegates (built-in): bzlib cairo djvu fftw fontconfig freetype heic jbig jng jp2 jpeg jxl lcms lqr ltdl lzma openexr pangocairo png raqm raw rsvg tiff webp wmf x xml zip zlib zstd
Compiler: gcc (14.1)
Because of that, the "convert" command now gives a deprecation warning:
WARNING: The convert command is deprecated in IMv7, use "magick"
Trying to do that, replacing all the calls to 'convert' for 'magick', the temp images seem to be problematic (I've added a few printouts of the suspected code blocks):
[i] Capturing in range [04:49.49-19:17.95]. Total length: 20:25.35
[i] Generating capture #1/4 (04:49.49)...
magick: no images found for operation `-geometry' at CLI arg 7 @ error/operation.c/CLIOption/5479.
magick: magick -background 'transparent' -fill 'transparent' '/dev/shm/vcs.SGteWR/vcs-ZQ0dJj-cap-000001.png' \( -geometry 267x200! \) -flatten \( -box '#000000aa' -fill 'White' -stroke none -pointsize '9' -gravity 'SouthEast' -font '/usr/share/fonts/TTF/DejaVuSans.ttf' -strokewidth 3 -annotate +5+5 ' 04:49.49 ' \) -flatten -gravity None -flatten \( -background black +clone -shadow 50x2+4+4 -background none \) +swap -flatten -trim +repage -flatten '/dev/shm/vcs.SGteWR/vcs-zQhKDd.png'
If I try to cp those two temp images on the line below the 'magick' command, they become 0 byte files.
The video renderer ffmpeg has also gone through a couple of steps of upgrades over the years, I now have:
$ ffmpeg -version
ffmpeg version n6.1.1 Copyright (c) 2000-2023 the FFmpeg developers
built with gcc 13.2.1 (GCC) 20230801
So commands like '-vframes' is now '-frames:v' and so on. No errors, just friendly suggestions in the man page. I replaced those also, but still the same problem.
I should have listened more carefully when our kindergarten teacher went through Bash. ;) IOW, I'm sure it's something simple I am not understanding.
N.b. I can still use vcs with the normal 'convert' command, but depending on how "militia force" serious the ImageMagick gang is going to be about deprecation warnings and removal of old code, it might stop working at some point in the future and I think that would be sad.
Any ideas? Thanks! :)
