Recent Releases
2.1819 Dec 2024 06:05
minor bugfix:
Date: December 18, 2024
With this release we worked on gradual improvement on features, correctness and code structure. We had some great progress in moving forward from SDL 1 video display, but there were still some, so that was postponed for now.
Timeline Clip slowmotion:
Previously Flowblade only offered workflow in which slowmotion needed to be created by adding new rendered Media Items.
With this release Timeline Clips can be directly turned into slowmotion or reversed clips, a more interactive and responsive workflow requested by users.
Generator work:
Credits Scroll Generator With this new generator scrolled or paged credit sequences can be created easily and with great amount of control over presentation. Text presentation and layout changes are controlled using a bit of MarkDown inspired markup, see documentation. Users can set initial layout parameters with GUI editors.
Other improvements:
Upgrade Hex Colors generator to do boxes and triangles too, changed generator name to Color Polygons.
Added From Left Solid and From Right Solid background types to Multiline Animation generator.
Made generators use appropriate video clip default renders instead of frame sequences. This provided a nice performance for text animation generators.
Made new HTML Link Button editor available to be used with generator to link to outside resources for e.g. added documentation.
Alpha video rendering:
Support for rendering VP9 WebM videos with alpha channel included was added.
Gtk 4 work:
Object creation for quite many often used widgets is subtly different between Gtk3 and Gtk4.
We added a builder module so that when we make the eventual switch we can only edit a few tens of lines of code instead of hundrends code points at widget creation sites.
Work was started by porting Gtk.HPaned / Vpaned and Gtk.FileChooserButton widgets to use the new module, and for the next few cycles will work to include all possible widgets.

2.1204 Dec 2023 04:52
minor feature:
ate: November 29, 2023 With Flowblade 2.12 we are getting a couple of important structural updates such as Data Stores feature and the possiblity to use up to 21 tracks in a Sequence. DATA STORES: Users can now decide where project data such as proxie clips, container clip renders, thumbnails and audio levels is stored. Data location can be selected for each project individually, and project data can also be destroyd per project so that other projects are not affected. See documentation for more info. MAXIMUM NUMBER OF TRACKS INCREASED TO 21: Flowblade has always avoided UX with free scrolling of Timeline in 2 dimensions. The rationale has been that this provides a more stable and maximally controllable view of the Timeline. This in turn has necessitated having a maximum a track count of 9. For 2.12 we added a paged and auto centered view of Timeline in the vertical dimension. This provides most of the stable view advantages of the previous approach, while simultaniously making it possible to increase the maximum number of tracks available to the user. FASTER PROXY RENDERING: It was pointed out that creating proxy files with the FFMPEG CLI application GPU rendering was much faster then Flowblade proxy rendering, even if GPU was used for rendering by Flowblade. The reason for this speed difference is the additional overhead necessery to support multitrack playback with arbitrary filtering and image and audio mixing that is required for video editor rendering. Proxies can now be rendered using FFMPEG CLI app if system supports GPU encoding. On testing we were getting 4-10x speed improvements with this approach. TOOLS AND CONFIGURATION REMOVAL: Flowblade no longer offers user configurable toolset for Timeline editing. The use cases of additional available tools are well covered with the default toolset and user configurable ordering of tools was longer considered an important feature. OTHER NEW FEATURES: New filters Unpremultiply, Grayscale Luminance, Copy Channel and
