This allows users to leverage the OpenH264 codec from Cisco to encode
H.264 video content. It is significantly reduced in capability from
alternatives, but it does the job.
This also provides a framework for adding support for other H.264
software codecs provided through FFmpeg.
The name of the obs_output_t won't appear in usual operation but some
output types have the translation and others do not. Let's translate
them.
Also translate `FilePath` property name.
A commit 4e140d2ff added AMF error messages but they were never used.
A commit 45d029b1f removed some code but a translation key "Advanced"
was left.
A commit 77fbfbe5c removed code to translate NVENC.TooManyBFrames but
the translation key was left.
A commit 6cc7cf3d5 removed the code to select codecs but the translation
was left.
If P216 or P416 color formats are selected with AMF, these color formats
were not explicitly handled, so the switch statements would end up in
the default case. If the user had also selected a Rec. 2100 color space,
this would result in the strange error message:
"OBS does not support 8-bit output of Rec. 2100."
This message is confusing and does not correctly reflect the chosen
settings. Let's explicitly handle the P216/P416 cases and provide a more
accurate error message.
If P216 or P416 color formats are selected with NVENC, OBS will fall
back from the native implementation to the FFmpeg implementation. Here,
P216 and P416 were not explicitly handled, so the switch statements
would end up in the default case. If the user had also selected a Rec.
2100 color space, this would result in the strange error message:
"OBS does not support 8-bit output of Rec. 2100."
This message is confusing and does not correctly reflect the chosen
settings. Let's explicitly handle the P216/P416 cases and provide a more
accurate error message.
Telling a user to "Check your driver is up to date" is too open to
interpretation, many users will use Windows Update or Device Manager to
check for updates which doesn't help. Instead, let's explicitly tell
them what is most likely to fix the problem.
Adds support for texture-based AMD encoding, with both H264, HEVC, and
HDR support. Falls back to FFmpeg when texture-based encoding cannot be
used for whatever reason.
(Jim note: This is based upon obsproject/obs-studio#4538 by AMD/Luxoft
with fewer files, FFmpeg fallback for software encoding, and HDR
support. I also went to lengths to ensure that FFmpeg command line
parameters also works with it)
