Bonjour,
De quel type de vidéos s'agit-il ?
Il y a un soucis connu (bug 142, toujours en investigation) avec certains fichiers VOB de DVD, notamment au niveau de la durée annoncée…

Re: parallax error (1 replies, posted in General)
Hello,
Currently there is no way to work around this kind of perspective issues.
Maybe later, when line tracking is in place, we could define a calibration segment and programmatically force it to keep the same size in pixels over the course of the video, by resizing the whole image around it… The range of applications of this would need to be assessed though. If someone can think of other scenario where this may be of interest ?
Thanks

Re: Using overlay with zoom? (9 replies, posted in General)
Interesting…
An addition on this would be the ability to drag the image around even when it's at normal view (zoom 100%).
With the combination of these two, one could directly adjust/align one image over the other in a very simple way.

Re: Non détection d'une camera DV (1 replies, posted in Français)
Bonjour,
Deux tests possible pour avancer dans le diagnostic:
- Tester la détection de la caméra par le logiciel sur un Windows 7 classique (hors bootcamp).
- Tester la détection des périphériques FireWire sur le Windows7+Bootcamp en dehors de Kinovea. (Autre logiciel de capture, disque dur connecté en FW, etc.)
Un logiciel tout simple pour tester le lien entre la caméra et le système : WinDV

Re: timing (3 replies, posted in General)
ok...I have another question...I have tried to use this program to time guys release times and the timer seems to do by incraments of .03 sec. Is there a reason for this?
That would point to a 30 fps file which is quite common. (1/30 = 0.033).
I have used another program before and it didn't do this and had up to the 1/10000 of a second. Thanks
Unless the video really has 10000 images per second, it is an artifact of the program. We can add as many digit after the decimal point as we want, the precision will not be better than 1 / fps.
Please re-check and see that when you move from one frame to another, you don't have 1/10000 increments (you may have 4 digits after the decimal point, but it is not really relevant).

Re: timing (3 replies, posted in General)
Hi,
Unless you have very high speed camera with more than 1000 frames per second, I think the limiting factor is the framerate of the video file (or the capabilities of the capture device).
When you shoot with a regular camera at, say 50 fps, the time resolution is 20ms. Each image is separated from the next one by this ammount, and you cannot get more accurate than that. Every timing you do can only be a multiple of this fundamental unit.
In that regard, displaying hundredth of seconds is already sometimes misleading, as the time measurements are really only as accurate as the frame rate. (In an early version, the last unit of the timecode display was the number of frames, which is more right, but less useful).
We could display microseconds, nanoseconds, but it will not be more accurate, just more misleading in my opinion.
There are cameras with more than 1000 fps though, I don't remember if this is nicely supported (up to 999fps should definitely be ok). I don't think 10000 fps capable device can be used for timing people (outside photofinish hardware that is).

Re: Overview / Aligned Merge (3 replies, posted in General)
(…)you can vary which video is more prominant.
Well, I think it would be straightforward to implement, but the main issue is one of user interface. Where to place the slider governing which image is more prominent? in a new window, directly on the common controls bar, on right click somewhere? Not sure which option is best and doesn't get in the way of users not using it.
Maybe it could be dynamically added to the bar only when the superposition is active…
Are these latter features what you have been thinking of for the aligned merge?
Not really. The goal of this feature is to merge both athletes on a common background (despite camera motion if any).
Actually bowling filmed from behind is one of the few sports for which the feature may not work well because the athletes doesn't move much relatively to the background. (similarly, golf and archery probably). This is because large parts of the background will never be visible…

Re: Speed setting (5 replies, posted in Bug reports)
Hi,
Sorry for the delay. Would you be able to send a small sample ?
I'd like to try to reproduce and see what happens internally.
Is it in Full HD image size ? It is possible that the file is too CPU demanding for the current version. When the images can't be decoded + displayed fast enough, the speed slider is automatically slid to the left to try to mitigate the jerkiness.
Thanks

Re: son ... ??! (1 replies, posted in Français)
La fonction est envisagée… dans un avenir lointain ![]()
Une ligne de conduite est que tous les fichiers générés par Kinovea doivent pouvoir être relus dans Kinovea. Donc avant d'intégrer les commentaires audio, il faut intégrer le support de l'audio en entrée. C'est également en projet mais pour l'instant il n'y a pas eu beaucoup de progrès de ce côté…

Re: Live replay (1 replies, posted in Français)
Une méthode est d'utiliser le mode d'affichage « Un écran de capture et un écran de lecture ».
Après l'enregistrement d'une séquence, faire un glisser-déposer de la miniature générée côté écran de capture vers l'écran de lecture. Cela ouvrira la séquence enregistrée avec tous les contrôles de lecture habituels.
Si vous avez une idée précise n'hésitez pas. Si possible en décrivant l'interaction avec le logiciel et le résultat souhaité (je n'ai pas Dartfish sous la main, et de toutes façons faire une copie de fonction serait une mauvaise stratégie, il faut comprendre ce qui est intéressant à proposer, pourquoi, etc.
)
Il pourrait être possible d'intégrer des boutons de lecture directement dans l'écran de capture (c'est ce qui était prévu au départ) mais je crois qu'il serait bien d'avoir une idée des cas concret d'utilisation pour pouvoir organiser les fonctionnalités au mieux.

Bonjour,
A priori cela ressemble au bug 207. Le problème a été corrigé dans les versions expérimentales.

Re: Saving a Two Playback video (1 replies, posted in General)
Hi,
The feature has been added in one of the experimental version. You can get the lastest at the top of this sub forum.
The "dual save" button is in the lower right corner, next to the common position slider.
Please report success or failure, as someone has reported an issue with the function here.

Re: Motion and Line Feature (2 replies, posted in General)
Hi,
This type of multipoint tracking is not currently supported, but it's definitely on the todo-list.
2-point tracking for lines, 3-point tracking for angles or for line and point, etc.

Re: New Possibilities (2 replies, posted in General)
Hi,
There is still much work to do in the player itself and limited resources, so the perimeter of the application has to be focused.
I understand how important it might be in your workflow but the ammount of work and the shift in the software focus has to be balanced against the number of persons needing this integrated in the player (as opposed to using a third party application).
I'd rather see Kinovea develop as a player with great analysis capabilities, rather than a file management system.
Since working with files is probably something completely independant, maybe you can find a management system that suits you and just use Kinovea to play the files.
If this external management system is open in its interfaces, maybe we can work out a way to display its data from within Kinovea, or even interact with these.
Thanks for your understanding. Do not hesitate to report your findings regarding these dedicated management systems.

Re: Trouble exporting track data (10 replies, posted in Bug reports)
Thanks for your help.
Using the logs the issue was clear (looking for the conversion scripts in the current directory instead of the application one) and it's now corrected. It will be fixed in the next experimental version.
