Recently Djoma pointed out that it also requires this font in the correct location (attempting to run on ArchLinux)
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/liberation/LiberationSans-Regular.ttf
I've also added these details into a help which can now be printed via
./VIDIFOLD --help
The application also calls number of system commands (might not be the best way to do some things but allowed me to get the job done)
It has come to my attention that some distributions will not have all these available. So for completeness, here's a list of the commands it currently calls.
mv, cp, mkdir, touch, rm, cat, df, du, ls, file, dpkg-query, ffmpeg, ffprobe
Additional notes:
It's possible to bypass start up checks, but it MAY only partially work, if at all. You run the program from the command line with:
./vidifold 2
If it doesn't work you could also run it in debug mode and send over the debug file with this command.
./vidifold 1
this will create a VIDIFOLD-logfile in the same folder as the executable.
NOTES:
1: this is a plain text file, so you can review what it contains before sending it over.
2: this grows very large very quickly, but shouldn't be a problem for you as its not getting very far.
3: this is not definitive or user friendly and please don't post it here
It may tell us where its stalling.
Sorry about slow reply, I rarely check here at the mo. If you would like a faster response do please email.
The other sources are only available when this plugin is used at the Bus or Output stages.
The code architecture at the moment doesn't allow access to images before they are created in the chain.
Sorry, been a long while since I looked at this, but I cant seem to reproduce it. I'm going to remove this from the back log, please make contact again if its still an issue
not going to follow this, there are some other encoding solutions I'm looking at
Had another request to add some simple video mapping options.
There are quite long periods where nothing happens on this forum, I don't bother tracking everything here at the moment. It's best to regularly review my current activity via the change log here https://vidifold.com/knowledgebase for the time being. :)
It is possible to end up with the application off screen for vaious reasons.
In this case you can use startup code 3 to reset the display positions, eg.
VIDIFOLD 3
would help with output previews when loaded
Hi again,
- Source type plugins that don't have a default output : the only thing I could do to get around it would be to upgrade the plugin API to insist on including a default thumbnail. Not something I'm going to play with any time soon. I'd have to rebuild and change all the plugins. But I'll throw it on the backlog.
- trails and dieback plugin : this one would be very difficult to work around - any plugin that requires some time to build up isn't going to show much on an initial load. Can't easily get around this one. I'm not going to chase it.
cheers
was done v0.28.7
Oh its so nice, wanted this for a long time but couldn't do it earlier.
Released 0.29.0
looking sweet! nearly there
this is out of date now, output slot plugins are saved for the autosave/startup patch and the drivers options are still in flux at the moment
Well... I'm totally side tracked to attempting this as it looks like it may be possible now. It's a medium size refactor, but I've built a lot of more tools since I started the project. There will probably be a few limitations, not sure what they are yet. First rewiring hacks seem to make sense, but no promises. Will known more in couple of weeks depending on workloads.
Yes, I might make that an option - I've put it in my list of things to consider. Archiving this now
released 0.28.7
Yep, slot snapshots got broken in 28.4, fixed now.
output setup now saved
released 0.28.7
released 0.28.7
Yes this is because in the first plugins I didn't bother trying to take into account aspect ratio.. I need to rewrite the plugin, if I can work out the maths!, I need to create the effect squashed (the inverse of the final aspect) so when it expands on the last render it comes out square.
Cheers, yep source slots were not supported in aux setups. Have updated this now. pending release.
yep, looks OK - done, pending release
Saving the "output" setups as part of the "startup patch" ie the auto save one on exit/load, makes sense. Something that was delayed as it's a special case.
