| 1.11.1: (2010-03-11) |
| * Added FLV1 codec |
| * BUGFIXES: |
| - Deprecate DEFAULT_INTERVAL, DEFAULT_NUMCAPS and DEFAULT_COLS as |
| overrides, warn about their new names (interval, numcaps and cols) |
| - Fix ImageMagick version detection |
| |
| 1.11: (2010-03-07) |
| * FEATURES |
| - Allow setting output filename. With extension will set output format, |
| without will inherit it. |
| - Allow percentages in height. |
| - Require mplayer OR ffmpeg instead of both. Having both is still |
| recommended for better results. |
| - Safe mode, for files whose length doesn't get reported correctly. |
| Completely automated. |
| Number of tries can be increased with -Ws. Repeat to increase further. |
| Use -WS to do try as many times as possible. |
| Accuracy (stepping) can be increased with -Wp. Repeat to increase |
| accuracy. Decrease with -WP. |
| Can be deliberately disabled with -Wb to force processing of broken |
| files. *VCS WITH -Wb WILL FAIL ON BROKEN FILES* |
| - Added -dp (--disable padding) equivalent to overriding HPAD to 0 |
| * BUGFIXES: |
| - Don't pass ms to mplayer. It ignores them anyway and in some rare |
| cases breaks the last capture (possibly due to the 5-frames hack) |
| - Honor detected aspect ratio if found |
| - Try to detect files that might fail on the last capture and trigger |
| safe mode |
| - Timestamps font was being ignored. As a side effect this produced |
| italiced timestamps in some systems |
| - Fixed obscure bug with safe_rename_pattern overrides |
| * COMPAT: Support for bash 2.05b. This will (probably) be the last version |
| capable of running under bash 2. |
| * DVD mode revamp |
| - Print title file size instead of disc size when possible |
| - Aspect ratio detection, if available |
| - Use of FFmpeg if available to get better information |
| - Mostly x-platform, only ISOs identification is a bit better in Linux |
| * Added FourCCs: 3IV1, 3IV2 (3ivx); s263 (H.263); mp4v, MP4V, H264 |
| (MPEG-4 and AVC in mov/mp4), VP6F (VP6 Flash Version), AMR |
| Video codec renamings: |
| - TechSmith codec name shortened to TechSmith SCC |
| - Raw RGB renamed to Raw video |
| * Help cleanup. The default help output is much shorter, the full text |
| can be displayed with --fullhelp. Also print the decoder choice near |
| the appropriate option (-M/-F) |
| * Added --anonymous to help (never was in it) |
| * Drop requirement on seq/jot and bc, replaced by inline awk |
| ... New requirement: Perl (only for DVDs). |
| * Adopt new/fixed numbering scheme |
| <http://p.outlyer.net/dox/vcs:devel:renumbering> |
| * Check ImageMagick version (must decide which is the real minimum |
| required) |
| * Non-latin fonts revamp: |
| - -I no longer works alone (use -Ij or -Ik instead) |
| - -Ik, -Ij and --nonlatin try to pick an appropriate font automatically |
| - -I accepts a font name or font filename like |
| -Ij=Kochi-Mincho-Regular or |
| -Ij=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/kochi/kochi-mincho.ttf |
| * Deprecated options: |
| --shoehorn: Will be removed unless someone really needs it. |
| --mincho: Replaced by --nonlatin |
| * COSMETIC: |
| - Default font switched to DejaVu Sans. |
| Font sizes reduced to accomodate the new default. |
| Should fall back to a sane default if it's not available |
| - Much tighter padding |
| - Smaller timestamps font by default |
| - Print friendlier timestamp when a capture fails |
| - Print program signature to console without colour |
| - Use main font by default in timestamps |
| - Heading background colour toned down |
| - Added colourised output when tput is not capable (i.e. FreeBSD) |
| - Added prefixes when colour is not available for console output |
| - Don't print lsdvd error channel is DVD mode |
| - Suppress mv errors (e.g. over VFS being unable to preserve) |
| * Minimum ImageMagick version set to 6.3.5-7 |
| * Better detection of requirements (e.g. disallow decoders without png |
| support) |
| * Allow overriding height, number of captures, interval, columns, and |
| padding |
| * UNDOCUMENTED/DEBUG: |
| - Allow stopping the main loop before cleaning up (--undocumented hang) |
| - Identification-only mode. Might be promoted to an actual feature |
| (--undocumented idonly) |
| - Allow setting ffmpeg and mplayer path (--undocumented set_ffmpeg and |
| set_mplayer) |
| - Allow disabling either mplayer of ffmpeg (as if they weren't |
| installed (--undocumented disable_ffmpeg and disable_mplayer) |
| - Added -Wc to disable console colour, repeat to disable prefixes |
| * INTERNAL: |
| - assert() |
| - Cleanup: correctness checks converted to asserts, removal of old dead |
| code |
| - Typos |
| |
| 1.0.100a: (2009-04-10) (1.10) |
| * FEATURE: FreeBSD (7.1-RELEASE) support |
| * COMPATIBILITY: |
| - Call bash through env |
| - Ensure we're using the correct getopt version |
| - Try to use POSIX sed options when appropriate |
| - Replaced incompatible sed constructs |
| - Use mktemp's common GNU/BSD(/POSIX?) syntax |
| - Use jot instead of seq if required and available |
| * BUGFIX: Don't fail if tput is unable to change colours |
| * BUGFIX: Check for requirements before anything else |
| * INTERNAL: Cache tput output |
| * FEATURE: Added -R / --randomsource. Mainly useful for debugging, |
| also to repeat a set of results and compare outputs on different |
| systems |
| * Corrected info message in photos mode |
| |
| 1.0.99: (2009-03-11) (1.9) |
| * FEATURE: Experimental support for DVDs (-V) |
| * FEATURE: Added JPEG 2000 output format (-j2) |
| * FEATURE/COSMETIC: Polaroid mode now produces a polaroid-like frame, the |
| older version is now renamed as simply 'photos' |
| New "funky" modes: newer polaroid, photos (older polaroid), |
| polaroidframe |
| * Overrideable variables: DISABLE_SHADOWS and DISABLE_TIMESTAMPS (set to 1 |
| to disable) |
| * BUGFIX/COSMETIC: Re-added the missed space before filename |
| * BUGFIX/COSMETIC: Reworked alignment and padding |
| * Timestamps size is adjusted with smaller captures |
| * BUGFIX: Fixed polaroid/rotate bug where all images overlapped on the same |
| position (reported by Aleksandar Urošević, formerly unreproducible) |
| * Better detection of video/audio features by falling back to ffmpeg when |
| appropriate |
| |
| 1.0.12: (2008-04-16) (1.8) |
| * BUGFIX/COSMETIC: Corrected 0ms timestamps |
| * COSMETIC: Re-added the (disabled for long) black border after highlights |
| * BUGFIX/COSMETIC: Corrected the count of captures in manual-only mode (-m) |
| * FEATURE: Added a minimun length to use the end offset |
| * BUGFIX: Fixed the regression on highlights from the last version (extra |
| padding was being added by IM automatically) |
| * INTERNAL: Simplified use of IM's identify |
| * BUGFIX: Fixed parsing of manual timestamps including milliseconds |
| (when seconds didn't include the s character they were accidentally |
| multiplied by 10!) |
| |
| 1.0.11: (2008-04-08) (1.7) |
| * BUGFIX: (brown bag bug) Corrected typo in variable name that made vcs |
| fail when setting the default timecode derivation to number of |
| captures instead of interval (i.e. when including timecode_from=8 in |
| the config file) (thanks to Chris Hills for the bug report) |
| * WORKAROUND: Fix for all-equal captures (seems to be a known problem |
| with mplayer [M1]) (contributed by Phil Grundig) |
| * RETROCOMPATIBILITY: Older bash syntax for appending and initialising |
| arrays (contributed by Phil Grundig) |
| * COMPATIBILITY: Support alternative du syntax for compatibility with |
| busybox (based on Phil Grundig's contribution) |
| * COSMETIC: Don't print milliseconds when using mplayer as capturer |
| (they're not really meaningful then) (suggested by Phil Grundig) |
| * COSMETIC: Align the extended set captures (-e) and the standard set |
| (bug pointed by Chris Hills). Seems to fail at some (smaller?) |
| sizes. |
| "Funky" modes aren't correctly aligned yet. |
| * DEBUGGING: Added optional function call trace (by setting variable DEBUG |
| to 1) |
| * Added FOURCC for VC-1 |
| * COSMETIC: Fixed captures recount with multiple files (prompted by a |
| bugreport from Dougn Redhammer) |
| |
| 1.0.10: (2007-11-08) (1.6) |
| * BUGFIX: Corrected aspect guessing bug: would fail if width was standard |
| but height not |
| * FEATURE: Allow explicitly disabling timestamps (-dt or --disable |
| timestamps) |
| * FEATURE: Allow explicitly disabling shadows (-ds or --disable shadows) |
| * Added HD resolution guessed aspect ratio (defaults to 16/9) |
| * OTHER: Changed e-mail address in the comments to gmail's, would probably |
| get a quicker response. |
| |
| 1.0.9a: (2007-06-10) (1.5.2, -Brown bag- Bugfix release) |
| * BUGFIX: Fixed regression introduced in 1.0.8a: unsetting numcols |
| broke extended mode captures (Thanks to 'Aleksandar Urošević'). |
| * BUGFIX: Use the computed number of columns for extended mode |
| (instead of the global one) |
| |
| 1.0.8a: (2007-06-02) (1.5.1, Bugfix release) |
| * BUGFIX: User set number of columns wasn't being used if -n wasn't used |
| (Thanks to 'Homer S'). |
| * BUGFIX: Right side of heading wasn't using the user's font colour |
| (Thanks to 'Dougn Redhammer'). |
| |
| 1.0.7a: (2007-05-12) (1.5) |
| * Print title *before* the highlights. |
| * Added the forgotten -O and -c to the help text (oops!) |
| * Experimental: Allow using non-latin alphabets by switching font. See -I. |
| It only affects the filename! Also allow overriding the font to be used |
| to print the filename ($font_filename). Right now only using a Mincho font, |
| it can be overriding by overriding $FONT_MINCHO. |
| * Make title font size independent of the timestamps size. And allow |
| overriding the title font ($font_title), font size ($pts_title) |
| and colours ($fg_title and $bg_title). |
| * Allow overriding the previews' background ($bg_contact) |
| * Added getopt, identify, sed, grep and egrep to the checked programs |
| * BUGFIX: Corrected test of accepted characters for intervals |
| * INTERNAL: New parsing code |
| * FEATURE: Replaced hard by soft shadows |
| * BUGFIX: Corrected console colour usage: Print the colours to the correct |
| channel |
| * Made tput (coloured console output) optional (AFAIK should be present in |
| any sane system though). |
| * FEATURE: Funky modes (more to come...): Polaroid, Film (rough, initial, |
| version), Photoframe and Random colours/fonts. (see --help) |
| * INTERNAL: Use /dev/shm as base tempdir if possible |
| * BUGFIX: Fixed safe_rename(): Don't assume current dir, added '--' to mv |
| * Added workaround for ffmpeg arguments order |
| * Allow getting the output of ffmpeg/mplayer (with $stdout and $stderr) |
| * INTERNAL: Renamed info() to inf() to eliminate ambiguities |
| * INTERNAL: guess_aspect() doesn't operate globally |
| * Reorganized help by alphabetical/rarity order |
| * FEATURE: Full milliseconds support (actually, full decimal point seconds), |
| timecode format extended to support e.g. 3m.24 (which means 00:03:00.240) |
| * BUGFIX/FEATURE: The number of extended captures is rounded to match the |
| standard columns (extended width matches standard) |
| * Made FOURCCs list case sensitive (the list has grown enough that I no |
| longer see a benefit in being ambigous) |
| * Added codec ids for On2's VP3, VP4, VP5 and VP6, TechSmith Screen Capture |
| Codec (Camtasia's) and Theora, expanded list of FOURCCs of Indeo's |
| codecs. |
| * Added -E / --end_offset / $DEFAULT_END_OFFSET, used to eliminate some |
| seconds from the end |
| |
| 1.0.6b: (2007-04-21) (1.4.1, Bugfix release) |
| * BUGFIX: Use mktemp instead of tempfile (Thanks to 'o kapi') |
| * Make sure mktemp is installed, just in case ;) |
| |

| * BUGFIX: Corrected --aspect declaration |
| * CLEANUP: Put all temporary files in the same temporary directory |
| * FEATURE: Highlight support |
| * FEATURE: Extended mode (-e) |
| * FEATURE: Added -U (--fullname) |
| * Requirements detection now prints all failed requirements |
| * BUGFIX: (Regression introduced in 1.0.4b) Fail if interval is longer |
| than video |
| * Don't print the success line unless it was really successful |
| * Allow quiet operation (-q and -qq), and different verbosity levels |
| (only through config overrides) |
| * Print vcs' identification on operation |
| * FEATURE: Auto aspect ratio (-A, --autoaspect) |
| * INTERNAL: Added better documentation of functions |
| * Print coloured messages if possible (can be disabled by overriding |
| $plain_messages) |
| * FEATURE: Command line overrides (-O, --override) |
| * BUGFIX: Don't allow setting -n0 |
| * Renamed codec ids of WMA2 (to WMA8) and WMA3 (to WMA9) |
| * Changed audio codec ids from MPEG-1 to MPEG, as there's no difference, |
| from mplayer's identification at least, between MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 |
| * Audio identified as MP2 can also actually be MP1, added it to the codec id |
| * Added codec ids for: Vorbis, WMA7/WMA1, WMV1/WMV7, PCM, DivX ;), |
| OpenDivX, LAVC MPEG-4, MSMPEG-4 family, M-JPEG, RealVideo family, I420, |
| Sorenson 1 & 3, QDM2, and some legacy codecs (Indeo 3.2, Indeo 5.0, |
| MS Video 1 and MS RLE) |

| naming when the output file exists |
| * Moved previous previous versions' changes to a separate file. |
| * Support for per-dir and system-wide configuration files. Precedence |
| in ascending order: |
| /etc/vcs.conf ~/.vcs.conf ./vcs.conf |
| * Added default_options (broken, currently ignored) |
| * BUGFIX: (Apparently) Corrected the one-vidcap-less/more bug |
| * Added codec ids of WMV9 and WMA3 |
| |
| 1.0.3b: (2007-04-14) (1.2.1, Brown bag hotfix) |
