Ah, fade shape behavior tweaks. I love fade shapes for some reason. They seem so, I don't know, audio-ey.

It seems the Windows x64 version now decodes AVI files, at the very least the uncompressed AVIs I use to test sync, with the Directshow decoder.

Testing whether that makes any difference.

-edit-
I used the uncompressed AVI and then tested with various Quicktime formats, because Reaperx64 4.32rc3 appears to use Directshow for AVI files and VLC for the Quicktimes, and Quicktimes are the most commonly used format. MP4 also used VLC.


23.976 fps
VLC decoded media : video frame is 1 sample late, compared to the clock.

Uncompressed AVI : video frames appear accurately

In both cases the time ruler is 566 samples late from where the clock sits.
(I tried several Quicktime formats)all seems to be ok so far.

24 fps
all seems to be ok so far.

25 fps
VLC decoded media : video frame is 1 sample late, compared to the clock.

Uncompressed AVI : video frames appear accurately

In both cases the time ruler was in sync with the clock.

29.97df fps
This was interesting.

Almost the exact same stuff happened compared to RC2, except for two things. The clock markers were all no longer on the sample grid. I had to shift them back by about 3/4 of a sample.

And the video frame markers were all 1 sample too early now. WIP I guess.

That session is here: https://stash.reaper.fm/15060/Reaper4...est_2997df.zip (2kB and it doesn't include the AVI or Quicktime files, which I generated with MPEG Streamclip from the AVIs btw)

Default MIDI CC Relative formula

Please give 10sec on this easily fixable bug by typo-error inside reaper code, right now rotative encoders in relative mode are totally broke and imprecise.

http://forum.cockos.com/project.php?issueid=4576

(extremely needed in both mixing and live)

Same here. Thanks Airon, and everyone else spending their time on this.

I hope the 4.33 cycle is a shorter one, focusing on bug-fixes and minor annoyances/improvements. The multi-MIDI and other big stuff could wait till 4.34 I think.

Err what ? Can't wait, I'm totally excited about it.

Just kidding, you're right of course, bug fixing is also important.

Test install of this RC seems to be much more stable with x64 plugins in WIn8 (No mention in the changelog)
Will keep testing though

Quick MIDI related question that might lead to a "repush" (or plea) on an old FR.

Been doing a lot of MIDI stuff lately and I'm starting to see lots of tiny slipping of notes and items all over the place related probably to the sample rate/tempo of the song.

I thought we had found a solution to this stuff, am I wrong?

I have gone through prefs/song settings and snap settings trying to stop my midi stuff slipping out when being copied.

Have I missed something? doesn't this "perturb" anyone else?

It's stops me from trusting things like looping items and even copy and pasting multiple times.

I thought we had found a way to tie in MIDI NPQN and sample rate?

I 'm with you on this MBN, just never really managed to put it into words. Many is the time I drag out a loop (audio or midi ) only to find that after a minute or so it has gone a bit wonky.
I've always thought it was me being careless, but it should understand that if I time select a bar, glue it and then loop it, it was a bar of loop I wanted not 1.00001 bars.

cheers

that's what you get for using doubles instead of integers and rational numbers for time...

Der Aufwand dürfte sehr groß sein, aber hängt auch vom Programmierstil ab (und teilw. ob C oder C++), wo ich natürlich auch kein Einblick habe.

Alles scheint auf double floats ausgelegt zu sein. Mal sehen was man anstellt um eine Zeitleiste hinzulegen die auch verlaeslich fuer Nicht-relative Formate funktioniert, also feste Intervalle.

Ich tippe auf v5. Vielleicht gibt's dann ein Integerzeitsystem das auf dem Doublefloatsystem aufbaut, damit alles rueckwarzenkompatibel bleibt.

Even if they some how hid some of the precision and allowed to snap right to the beats and bars even though really they are offset I wouldn't mind that kind of!

LOCALHOSTS FOR REASTREAM!! when is this going to happen?

All OS's ( anything after XP) yes even Linux is using the Ipv6 Localhost now, so you can not have reastream send to 127.0.0.2 or 1 as that is an IPv4 address. Reastream still does not support IPV6 localhost


I need to finish a Reaper mod and this is the final piece of the puzzle

2 reapers on the same machine running 2 different ASIO drivers . Virtual Midi driver is sending midi back and fourth between the BUT I need Reastream to send to Localhost BUT!!! the Localhost is now ::1 that is the localhost address in Ipv6.

Loopmidi ( virtual midi port) will be used for sending midi and Reastream will be used ( I HOPE!!!) to send audio streams.

Anyone can help out on this?

Die Legacy-Tauglichkeit ist noch ein ganz anderes Fass das in dem Fall zu viel Haarverlust führen könnte. Wie sinnvollere Lautstärkenautomaation wird es vermutlich einfach nie passieren...

Finally I can avoid the MIDI Editor.
I am a simple man and love staying in 1 window as I don't need anything but occasional Quantize and swing, but copy/paste in the Arrange Window is deeply appreciated.
Maybe this can become a habit and eventually wave goodbye to the MIDI Editor.
Or at least get rid of the large keys meant for kids to play with.

Thanks So Much...

finally the Reastream localhost sending is now fixed for Windows and Mac

I asked Justin about this and he delivered


You can now send audio to 127.0.0.1 and it will send to the other Reastream on the same PC !!!

or standalone test:

Run Reaper, add a track and load a wave file or mp3, add reastream and make it send to 127.0.0.1
in this track I/O uncheck send to parent

Add a second track and add also reastream make it receive
now play the project the second track will receive from track 1 and you will hear it and can record it

Now you can take this and use the reaplugs to use another daw to send to if you wish
or run 2 reapers and send back and fourth LOL



Outstanding!!

LOL been having fun with this all day sending audio and midi back and fourth between 2 Reapers running at the same time on the same machine

With this you can

Have 2 different apps running ( Reaplugs 2.1) both using 2 different asio drivers and sending audio back and fourth between each other

You can extended your audio interface this way with inputs from another interface running on another daw ( or 2 reaper instances)

EXCELLENT!!!

Have to ask. Is there a practical application for this?

yes to mix your interfaces ins and outs back and fourth betweent different host s all thanks to the reaplugs

Example.( on the same PC)

Cubase running- receiving from reastrem running example motu interface

Reaper running -sending out via reastream which is then picked up in Cubase


a short example.

I have set another reaper on the same machine as portable, so the main reaper running my edirol Fa101 sends audio via Reastream to the Portable Reaper running ASIO4ALL

I have set Asio4all at 96 samples ( ancient AMD dualcore 2 gigs ram test system) and put jamvox on the Portable Reaper after the Reastream Receive FX

The guitar signal goes into the main Reaper which then sends it out to the second Portable Reaper with stunning low latency INCREDIBLE the sound of the guitar going through Jamvox was identical as having it go through the normal Reaper running Jamvox


This opens up new doors into making some serious crazy Reaper Mods and gives us the ability to mix ins and outs from other Reapers or Daw's running either locally or even networked if you wish ( network will have higher latency due to the network layout.. But 100 mb network should be okay

Has interfacing with the Quicktime libraries directly been considered ? It is after all the most used format for this type of thing. Well, old PT just seems to handle it gracefully, and AFAIK it's one of the few libraries that lets you export video with a new soundtrack(that's what PT does when rendering a new Quicktime).

I'm very interested in what challenges you face implementing video support in Reaper.

So for a 29.97 fps (30000/1001) you get alternating values of 33366µs or 33367µs? Or always the one?

From a quick look at the libvlc docs it even looks like they expect seeking in ms... terrible design choice IMO. VLC was never designed to be frame accurate though.

In any case, what I meant is that the only precise way to store time (that doesn't loose precision for longer streams like double or float do) is using an integer sample/frame number and a rational sample/frame rate. Which doesn't only apply to video but audio as well, and could be one of the reasons for those "1.00001 bar MIDI items" and also the frame offsets in video (but from what you say the second seems to be the fault of VLC. ffmpeg/libav does store time properly though)
