10.7

Changes since VideoTools 2.2

• New Blackmagic Capture patch.
• Added support for ProRes formats:
  • ProRes 422
  • ProRes 422 (Proxy)
  • ProRes 422 (HQ)
  • ProRes 4444

Credits

• The new Blackmagic Capture patch was commissioned by Stuart White of Control Freak Systems.

Known Issues

• The Blackmagic Capture patch has only been tested with the Blackmagic Decklink card
• ProRes 4444 format does not support transparency (so videos are fully opaque)
• H.264 videos stutter when played backwards
• All VideoTools patches provide only video input, not audio input
• Firewire cameras only support certain combinations of Color Coding, Resolution, and Framerate. Watch the Error output and Console log when troubleshooting.
• Due to issues with the underlying frameworks, video device info cannot be queried once a video device is in use. Therefore Video Device Info is only updated once: when the composition is first started.

Changes since Kineme2D 1.0

• Fix UV coordinate generation in Bezier Grid with Path patch.
• Fix memory leaks in Image With Vector Structure patch.
• Expose attributes field in Vector Structure with SVG.

Known Issues

Triangle Structure With Vector and Extrusion With Vector will not generate triangles, and may under rare circumstances crash, when given a vector that intersects itself.

Vector Structure With SVG supports only a subset of the SVG language.

Supported SVG features include:

• SVG files generated by Adobe Illustrator
• Some path elements (moveto, lineto, cubic, close)
• Basic shapes (rect, circle, ellipse, line, polyline, polygon)
• Text
• Groups
• Transforms
• Stroke/fill attributes

Unsupported SVG features include:

• Size units other than pixels (inches, ems, percentages, ...)
• Gradients
• CSS
• Scripting
• Animation

Changes since Kineme3D 1.6

• New 3D Object to Vertex Structure patch
• Added FBX animation support to 3D Object Loader patch (commissioned by @franz)
• Added "Animation Length" output to the 3D Object Loader patch
• Added "Polygon Mode" settings to 3D Object Renderer and 3D Object Structure Renderer patches

Known Issues

• OS 10.8 introduced changes to the OpenGL calls made in QC's Mesh and Sprite patches. In OS 10.8 a Sprite or Mesh Renderer patch rendered in the same scene and directly before a Kineme3D Object may corrupt the Kineme3D object's triangle buffer.

Workarounds:

• If possible, modify the rendering order such that 3D Object Renderer is before the Sprite patch, or not immediately following it.
• Use 3D Plane Generator and 3D Object Renderer in lieu of a Sprite patch.
