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.

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?

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

Introduce new names in 1.12 ( FS#120 )

Remove old names in 1.13 or 1.14 (this)

See  FS#171 

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.

/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).

v2.0 will be a rewrite in Python.

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

To mimic the original way of working

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

First version allowing multiple file sharing.
Possibly release early and keep as alpha or beta to test further.

The progress bar should reflect when the size of the shared file is unknown.

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.

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

Take advantage of Nougat style notifications to display more information to the user.

Possible design elements:

1. “App icon”: Network type? AFAICT setting it to the actual app will replace the status bar icon.
2. Header text: Provider
3. Timestamp: Time of the last update
4. Large icon: Network type, bigger?

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.
