I have been contemplating the migration from Subversion to Mercurial for a long while now.
I'll probably try the migration sometime soon.

If you are using the source code and have a problem with this, please discuss in this thread.

The advantages of Mercurial over SVN will be easier merge of external contributions, easier merges of branches, branches history more accessible, history replication everywhere as backup.
The CodingTeam forge where the code lives already supports Mercurial.

It is posible to live capture in highspeed using Casio´s driver

Really? Interesting! I assumed the casio would only record highspeed to its internal card.
Do you have more details? Is it a new firmware for the camera ? What is the output connexion ? What software allows this?

(Attention je ne suis pas du tout spécialiste smile)

Si le PC a une carte graphique avec deux sorties, on peut brancher un second écran. Certaines cartes ont même une sortie TV, on pourra donc avoir une copie de l'écran de l'ordi sur un écran de télé. (cela dit c'est possible qu'à taille équivalente un écran de PC soit moins cher, et la résolution sera meilleure)

Je ne vois pas trop comment faire pour renvoyer la vidéo vers un écran sans avoir aussi le reste de l'interface du logiciel. Il n'y a pas encore de mode plein écran dans Kinovea, et même dans ce cas, les deux écrans « verraient » la même chose.
Si on envoie directement le flux de la caméra vers un écran d'affichage c'est possible, mais alors le problème est de renvoyer ce flux vers le PC…

Si quelqu'un a trouvé des solutions, n'hésitez pas à partager…

is kinovea based on VLC?

No, but both share use of the FFMpeg decoding library.

HDAV wrote:

is it possible to auto pause the video on a comment (ideally outside of the Kinovea application playback with VLC or WMP etc)

Auto pause is done through the time freeze export, lower right button. Do you know of an application that can be told to auto pause a video based on the video's meta data ?

I can get the stop watch to show but it doesnt then run?

Yes, and I realize it's not very intuitive. When you add a stopwatch it just sits there. You have to right-click > start stopwatch.
Maybe it would be better to attach it a few frames back and turn on the counter on the current frame, I don't know.

Kinovea smile

I am getting confused with the frame rate settings footage will always be at the same rate can this be set as preference?

The frame rate settings is only for high speed camera. You only have videos filmed in high speed ?

2: the subtitle to run under the video for a set number of frames or for the duration of the working area should be simpler to implement than sync'd subtitles

This could be the same feature as the suggested "Drawing stays on screen until next drawing in sequence appears" basically, all the drawings on the current key image would stay 100% opaque until the next key image.
This would correspond to attaching the drawings to the "section" between two key images instead of just the first image.

Oh, hadn't thought about subtitles comments. Interesting idea.
Currently there is the label tool and the comment box, but as you noted these are attached to a single frame, and more for interactive review.
I have used one or two subtitle authoring software in the past and there are some design challenges to address. Providing a way to synchronize the text with the video complexifies the interface a lot.
Please discuss what you think would be the best approach to this smile

There was once a sub project to have extensive support for this and other features. (wiki). (not planned at the moment)

If we display the coordinate axis on the video, it would be expected to be able to redefine it directly… (?)

I have the same question regarding the ave speed calculation.  I'm measuring bar speed for the bench press in the sagittal plane. 

"is it X or Y or the resultant."

The "resultant".

Also, can you provide the ave speed as part of the exported data?

Well, I see there are requests for more detailed data, or data presented differently, etc. Maybe we need to design the "export to spreadsheet" feature differently so that user have more control on what get exported and how… (Currently you can play with the XSLT files in the program directory but it's rather complex and you can't do everything anyway).

Any plans on calculating acceleration values?

I just added this to the idea backlog. You can "+1" it there.

Hi !
Thanks for the proposition.
The interface is 100% covered for Spanish, but if you are motivated I can create a namespace for Spanish translation of the help manual.
It is not a small task but it's possible to do progressively.

Hit the pause button (second from left) while moving hand rapidly in front of the camera.
Do you see the same issue on the freezed frame? Does it look like interlacing artifacts?
I can reproduce this with a DV camcorder. Not sure there is anything to do about it at capture time though… (check if the camera has a "progressive" mode).

Most definitely not related.
Can you open a new thread, this will increase visibility of your issue.
Is it related to comb artifacts from interlaced video ?

Hi,
Currently I'm not working on it. I'm working on a refactoring of the drawing tools framework to be able to ease the addition and development of future tools. This is currently done in a separate code branch but it has deep impact on the code of the screens, so I'd rather not work on full screen mode until the refactoring is merged in the trunk.
Next, I'd like to work on the multi point tracking and chronophotography.
I guess what is needed is more developer power hmm

I'll try to at least assess the amount of work needed to implement full screen before long.

Pour le fichier : faire click droit + "enregistrer sous" ou équivalent selon le navigateur.
Sinon au pire copier le contenu du fichier dans notepad et enregistrer en tant que "cleye.config".
Le fichier doit être placé directement dans "C:\Program Files\Kinovea"

Sur le site de CodeLaboratories: http://codelaboratories.com/downloads/
En bas à gauche, CL Eye Platform driver, single camera.

Pour avoir accès à la configuration avancée (640x480 @ 75fps par ex.), il faut télécharger ce petit fichier cleye.config et le coller dans le répertoire de Kinovea (dans Program files).

About the PS3 Eye, the limitation is coming from the driver I believe. The same guy(s) providing the single camera driver has a (not free) multi-camera driver.
