2016-01-25mlib: support all formats of player
Almost, we will need to get a list of all suffixes supported by ffprobe or avprobe. This could prove tricky..
2016-01-02copyright updates for 2016
Using the 'update-copyright' script from gnulib[1]: git ls-files | UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_HOLDER='all contributors' \ UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=2 \ xargs /path/to/gnulib/build-aux/update-copyright [1] git://git.savannah.gnu.org/gnulib.git
2016-01-02source/splitfx: stringify comments
It's easier to leave numerics unquoted in YAML; so automatically stringify comments comming from the YAML file.
2015-12-25enable "frozen_string_literal: true"
While we're in the area, make a wording change from "GPLv3 or later" to "GPL-3.0+", as the latter is favored by SPDX.org
2015-05-19source/splitfx: allow watching extra external scripts
Since writing nested shell commands inside YAML is subject to all sorts of strange quoting rules, encourage users to rely on external scripts which the YAML file refers to instead. These scripts can be written in any reasonable scripting language capable of executing other commands. This allows transparently monitoring things such as `my-script.rb' in the below example when playing my-splitfx.yml via dtas-player: --------------------- my-splitfx.yml ----------------------- infile: input.flac command: $INDIR/my-script.rb "$INFILE" ... --------------------- my-script.rb -------------------------- #!/usr/bin/ruby require 'shellwords' infile = ARGV.shift ch = %W(sox #{infile} -p).concat((ENV['TRIMFX'] || '').shellsplit) fx = %W(highpass 25 gain 9) l = ch.dup.concat(%W(remix 1v1)).concat(fx).concat(%w(contrast 30)) r = ch.dup.concat(%W(remix 2v1)).concat(fx).concat(%w(contrast 0)) cmd = %W(sox -M |#{l.shelljoin} |#{r.shelljoin}) cmd.concat((ENV['SOXFMT'] || '-p').shellsplit) cmd.concat(%w(- stats)) warn cmd.inspect exec *cmd
2015-01-28player: support the "trim" parameter
This feature is intended to allow users to "zoom-in" on a particular portion of a track to tweak parameters (either with dtas-sourceedit(1) or via playback of splitfx YAML files). This may be combined with looping the tracklist (via "tl repeat").
2015-01-19update copyright years and links to mailing list archives
The documentation part is managed by the new Documentation/update-copyright script. For the future, the rest may be managed by the update-copyright tool in gnulib
2015-01-19avoid aliasing global "spawn" method
This makes debugging, grepping, and following code confusing at times and also unexpected breaks usage of the global "spawn" method.
2015-01-19dtas-sourceedit: update player as user saves in the editor
This allows changes in the source YAML file to be reflected immediately in player after the user saves the file in their favorite $EDITOR. Previously, a user would need to: 1) start dtas-sourceedit, spawning $EDITOR 2) edit the file 3) save changes 4) exit $EDITOR 5) repeat starting from 1) until happy with the results Now, the workflow allows avoiding the context switch between their $EDITOR and terminal to restart dtas-sourcedit: 1) start dtas-sourceedit, spawning $EDITOR 2) edit the file 3) save changes 4) repeat starting from 1) until happy with the results 5) exit $EDITOR In my experience, this greatly speeds up tuning of the playback change, giving all the repeatability and flexibility of editing text files while having the immediacy of an interactive UI. Keep in mind this can cause problems for those with auto-save enabled in their $EDITOR buffer at inopportune times, so a -N/--no-watch option is added.
2015-01-03splitfx: add INDIR and INBASE environment variables
These are intended to act like `$(@D)' and `$(@F)' in GNU make(1) and to ease managing temporary files for some effects (e.g. noiseprof + noisered in sox) for splitfx users.
2014-12-29source/splitfx: fail gracefully on missing files
We cannot afford to break the entire player because somebody enqueued a non-existent file (or enqueued and later renamed it).
2014-12-28source/splitfx: default tracklist for single-track files
While the splitfx source is intended for applying effects to untracked audio files (e.g. transfers of vinyl records or live concert recordings), it should be useful for applying effects to an already-tracked recording.
2014-12-28source/splitfx: standardize on $FX for sox effects
This should allow users to setup effects in a more standardized fashion and avoid needing to specify a "command:" field in their splitfx YAML files in the general case.
2014-12-28source/splitfx: restart source on YAML modifications
Since splitfx YAML files are intended to be frequently edited and modified by the user, we'll support automatically restarting the source when the user saves changes via their favorite $EDITOR This change is only for Linux users. However, sleepy_penguin supports kqueue nowadays so a patch to support such functionality would be appreciated.
2014-12-27player: support playing splitfx YAML files
This allows splitfx users to test CUE breakpoints and run file-specific effects without interrupting their normal flow.
