gyroflow / gyroflow-frei0r Goto Github PK

Hi,

I've only just learned about gyroflow, and it's looking really promising
thanks for all the work you've put in to this! :)

I've been getting it set up to use it with kdenlive, and the latest hurdle in
making that all work nice and painless seem to be that the plugin stores
the Project file as a relative path (relative to the <mlt root="..."> path).

So when I edit a new project, add the gyroflow effect to a clip and set the
project file, it all works great.

But if I save that project and then reopen kdenlive, or when I try to actually
render it, then gyroflow sees the relative path fragment as invalid, and I see
the same thing as in the third image shown here:
#2

If I manually edit the kdenlive project file or mlt render script to make the
Project property an absolute path then everything works as expected.

I'm just not sure if that's something gyroflow is supposed to tell mlt with a
parameter in the effect xml file, or if it's supposed to handle it in the plugin
code by prepending the mlt root to a relative path before using it.

Hi,
I'm a bit struggling to find the folders kdenlive/lib/frei0r-1/ and kdenlive/bin/data/kdenlive/effects/. I tried ' /Library/Application Support/kdenlive/effectsand/Library/Application Support/kdenlive/library/frei0r-1`, but the effect doesn't show up in the restarted KDEnlive.
Thank you!

I am in the process of making an UI for the Shotcut application and I noticed that when there's no argument supplied to the Project parameter (so when the user would first add the filter to a video) the output is garbled - see screenshot # 2 (Edit: noticed that this part happens only if the aspect ratio of the video isn't 16x9).

If the argument is supplied but invalid (like "x"), the video is partially shown by cropping a bit of the top (see screenshot # 3, this was a 4x3 2.7k source in a 16x9 1080p timeline, but also happens for 16x9 in a 16x9) so the result is better, but not ideal.

I guess this could be some sort of intentional detail to tell the user he has to pay attention to the filter and add the project but my first thought was "oh, there's a bug/corruption, let me close it and try again".
Also had a look at the Kdenlive behaviour and it is the same.
