Extended Control-Image Adjustments-enable = audio only

Postby marklar » 09 Sep 2006 03:45

If while a file is playing one opens the Extended Controls > Image Adjustment and clicks "enable" the video disapears and the audio continues to play.

If, one leaves the "enable" checked and goes to preferences, does a "reset all" and "save" the dialog, one can again restart a video and see the video and hear the audio, however, the adjustments under "image adjustment" are completely innefective, except for the "opaqueness" slider and the "invert colors" check box.

unchecking "enable" for image adjustment, then rechecking it again causes the video to disapear. stopping play and starting the same or a different video with the "enable" box checked yields playing audio only without video, as if you had checked the "enable" box whilst playing.

This has been the case with the OS X nightlies of the last several weeks, and used to function well on this setup.

Note: PROBLEM DOES NOT EXIST IN 0.8.5

That wasn't because of you. It simply wasn't asked yet and I remember only really rare questions about this panel, so I was actually wondering if it was worth implementing at all except for my personal use.

ah hah! Thanks for the follow up.

I greatly relied on it in the past --makes a huge difference in viewing videos, especially the ones that are too dark to see detail for me. Just figured it was a question of time until it reappeared in the nightlies but after a while thought it worthwhile to post.

Went to the nightlies and see last PPC version 9-21 which is date of your post. Will give it a shot but guess that may not be reflected then...Hope it can come back.

Thanks!

just a follow up, and I'm sure you're already aware of this, but just to be sure.

The good news is in attempting the nightly of 9-21 it is noted that checking "enable" no longer crashes the video playing, leaving the audio running as it did before; the controls are inoperative except for "opaqueness".

Thanks.
