2010-05-04T17:06:52-07:00 Die Intel Grafiktreiber scheinen ein Problem mit der großen Anzahl von Texturen zu haben, die TFTFont anlegt. Hier ein Auszug einer Mail von Tobydox: <pre><code> hab mich mit den Intel-Leuten mal über das Problem mit USDX und dem Intel-Grafiktreiber unter Linux unterhalten. Die haben den Bug z.T. auch in anderen Programmen (auch wenn er da nicht so drastisch auftritt). Irgendwie kommt der Treiber nicht damit klar, dass USDX für jeden Glyph der verschiedenen Fonts eine neue Textur anlegt (was immerhin über 2000 sind) (dazu auch ein Kommentar von einem Intel-Entwickler: "Of course, if the app is doing that many small textures then it should really really be doing texture atlasing. But that wouldn't justify our behavior being that bad" </code></pre> Es gibt zwar für Linux einen Workaround, aber evtl. ist die Texturanzahl auch der Grund dafür, dass bei Intel-Grafik unter Windows im minimiertem Zustand der Speicherverbrauch in die Höhe schießt. Das Font-Rendering basiert auf einem NEHE Tutorial, in dem auch eine Textur pro Glyph genutzt wurde. In USDX wurde es auch dabei belassen, da der Speicherverbrauch trotz Verschnitts sehr gering ist. Wenn jemand darauf Lust hat, kann er sich ja an FTGL (http://ftgl.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/ftgl/trunk/src/FTFont/FTTextureFont.cpp?revision=1214&view=markup) orientieren, da dort wird Texture Atlasing verwendet. Es wäre schön gewesen, wenn man FTGL direkt hätte benutzen können. Aber da es nur C++ Header gibt und man einen Wrapper hätte schreiben müssen, die Fonts zudem noch sehr unscharf bei Skalierungen sind und die Spiegelungseffekte (nur mit Multitexturing) und andere grafischen Spielereien von USDX gar nicht möglich waren, hatte ich eine eigene Implementierung in UFont.pas gestartet. 0 1384447 116 false df4_4sXhOr3ir6abIlDkbG 116 3 df4_4sXhOr3ir6abIlDkbG aSBth2Ph8r3iOrabIlDkbG 0 New 0

Without synchronization as in USDX 1.0.1 audio, video and lyrics will be out of synch half of the song. Especially audio and video were not very synchronous with 1.0.1 on my windows system. This was due to the fact that audio is played by bass and video by ffmpeg both using different timers. For USDX 1.1 I tried to solve this issue by synching lyrics, audio and video. This is mostly based on the approach on an ffmpeg tutorial: http://dranger.com/ffmpeg/ IIRC I used the lyrics time (which is generated by a timer) as a master clock. The audio clock is synched against this master clock and video is synchronized against the audio clock. There are some problems with this solution: * this solution works good if only bass is used (without ffmpeg) * this sometimes causes the audio to crackle as some bytes of the audio stream have to be skipped in order to keep up with the lyric timer * the ffmpeg audio and video timestamps do not seem to be of high quality. IIRC there even were some audio timestamps with a time earlier than the previous timestamp * on my linux system the soundcard consumes much more bytes than it should. For example in 44.1kHz mode it consumes 44150 samples instead of 44100 and so the audio stream will be played too fast and it has to be stopped for some time to be synched with the lyrics timer. This is a very nasty and noticeable problem on my system as it causes crackling etc. There are two solutions for this problem: 1. disable synchronisation (and audio/video will be out of synch again) [not recommended but a quick fix] 2. synch lyrics and video to audio: __* make audio the master clock __* the lyrics clock was uses as a master in the current synch approach as I didn't know if the scoring algorithm poses problems if the lyrics time changes (and I still don't know) __* we have to make sure that audio timestamps have a good quality: _____* they have to be monotone (a timestamp following another is not allowed to have a lesser value than the previous one) _____* the timestamps do not have to jitter so the scoring and the lyric display are appropriately. This means a timestamp contains the correct audio postion with only a little tolerated difference. _____* NOTE: FFmpeg produces very bad timestamps for Ogg-Vorbis files, for example 'Dead Smiling Pirates - I 18' (already the first timestamp is wrong), MP3 timestamps are better in general. So always test synch approaches with ogg-vorbis files. __* NOTE: The ffmpeg demo player which is part of the ffmpeg distribution disables synching if the timestamp quality is too bad. This could be done in USDX too. 3. in my opinion the synch against audio will always cause crackling so my first approach should be abandoned (sorry). This could only be done if we could dynamically increase/decrease the frequency of the audio stream to make it slightly faster or slower. But changing the resampling frequency dynamically is not possible with ffmpeg or SDL (those are currently used), it is only possible with libsamplerate (it was not used as it was too slow). 0 1251921 105 false 26192 df4_4sXhOr3ir6abIlDkbG 105 3 df4_4sXhOr3ir6abIlDkbG aSBth2Ph8r3iOrabIlDkbG 4 Test 0

Maybe we could implement the FFmpeg decoding/resampling/playback stuff in C and link USDX to the resulting DLL. Brunzel started using Acinerella for this purpose. The problem with this library is that it still needs much work to keep it up to date and it is not part of any linux distribution. That means the C code Acinerella lib has to be compiled on linux by the USDX Makefile which is a pain as the build chains of C and FPC are rather different (see the projectM C-Wrapper). If a C library is used, the USDX build mechanism should be changed from Autotools (autoconf, configure, make, ...) to CMake. I already started a CMake branch for USDX. It is very easy to combine Pascal and C code with it (see projectM). The CMake branch was nearly complete, only the Mac OS X Bundle creation stuff is missing. 0 1356371 113 false 26193 df4_4sXhOr3ir6abIlDkbG 113 3 df4_4sXhOr3ir6abIlDkbG aSBth2Ph8r3iOrabIlDkbG 0 New 0

Instead it should be possible to define the shortcuts in the constructor of the screen, like Shortcuts.Add([MOD_ALT, MOD_SHIFT, 'K'], SOME_SHORTCUT_DESCRIPTION) For the character keys there should only be one blank key image. The keyname can then be rendered on it at runtime so there is no need to have an image for every single character.

There are many tools like poedit that assist a translator. Some links: - http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/ (gettext homepage) - http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/gettext.html#Pascal (gettext manual, Pascal section) - http://wiki.freepascal.org/Translations_/_i18n_/_localizations_for_programs/de (FPC + gettext) - http://dxgettext.po.dk/ (Delphi + gettext) These are the steps for getting gettext to work: 1. mark strings as localized, either by 1.1. defining them as a resourcestring 1.2. marking them by a _() function 2. extract the marked strings to a .po file ( 3. copy the .po to a localized file, e.g. ultrastardx.po -> ultrastardx.de.po and translate the strings 4. compile the .po files into .mo files 5. load the .mo file of the user specified language from the application (the language selection is not fixed during runtime) Remarks to 1) - The gettext manual proposes the "resourcestring" approach for pascal - The xgettext tool is not able to parse pascal code for _() functions. This is only possible for C/C++/C#/PHP/Java/Perl and almost all other languages except Pascal. - The Lazarus IDE has integrated support for the creation of .po-files from resourcestrings. If Lazarus is not available we can still use "rstconv -i *.rst -o *.po" (rstconv is part of FPC) for this task from a Makefile. - dxgettext is a command-line tool that is able to parse pascal code with either resourcestrings, _() "markers" or both. In addition it has great Delphi support. There are linux + mac versions too but they are not included in any linux repository (Ubuntu etc.) so we have to compile them ourselves (using the pre-compiled linux binaries is not a good idea). Remarks to 4) - compilation of .po to .mo files can be done with msgfmt, either by a Makefile or by adding it into the post-compile action of the lazarus compilation options of the USDX project file - poedit is able to compile .po files to .mo too and could be used for delphi, dxedit will probably work too - the .mo files seem to be machine (win, linux, mac, x86, x86_64) dependent so compiling them once and checking them into svn will probably not work - Maybe it is possible to use the .po files directly, that would make things easier especially on windows. They are not as fast as the .mo files but probably still faster than the current .ini approach of USDX Questions: - Should we use "resourcestring" or a _() function? Although the latter one seems to be the better approach it does not work without dxgettext and might be a struggle to get it to work on non-windows systems. - How do we create those .mo files with least effort on windows? (This is not a problem for systems with "native" Makefile support) - which pascal headers should we use? The FPC or the dxgettext ones? Proposal 1: - Use "resourcestring" to mark strings - Windows users should use either Lazarus or Delphi + dxgettext - Add rstconv and msgfmt calls to the Makefile so Linux + Mac users can go on as usual Proposal 2: - Use _() to mark strings - Windows users HAVE to install dxgettext (and have to integrate it into the windows file-explorer by this) - Linux + Mac: - copy the dxgettext code into the USDX tools dir - add a rule to build dxgettext to the Makefile - start dxgettext on the USDX sourcecode from the Makefile Somebody should open an SVN branch an experiment a little bit with gettext. 0 1356615 115 false 26193 df4_4sXhOr3ir6abIlDkbG 115 3 df4_4sXhOr3ir6abIlDkbG aSBth2Ph8r3iOrabIlDkbG 0 New 0

The current MIDI implementation does not work in Linux or MacOSX. If this feature is needed, platform independent MIDI support should be added to USDX. Timidity++ probably is the best approach to achieve this (supports MIDI-playback and MIDI (or kar) file-reading). There also exists a game-library named allegro (it is similar to SDL) that supports MIDI playback and file-reading, but this would be too much overhead. Timidity++ has been ported to Linux/Windows and MacOSX. If Timidity++ ("":http://timidity.sourceforge.net) should be used, we would need pascal header-files first.
