Very simple processing improvement.

[ilia3101]

I'm working on a very small and simple processing improvement. This is basically going to be like our "fix cyan highlights" or "uncolourscience fix", but on steroids. It will fix most of the ugly skews and clipping. A trick from @Sobotka . Will be commited today.

@masc4ii Will you be able to add a small checkbox somewhere in the profiles section? And please make it be enabled by default. This is going to be such an upgrade for handling things like colourful LEDs and sunsets. It will be a bit less "colourful" by default, but please try to appreciate the upgrade!

Examples (before on the left, after on the right):

So smooth!!!!!

(I also see an opportunity for making the pipeline fully floating point and less clippy, but this will come later)

@sobotka Can we call this "AgX" in the UI?

[masc4ii]

Sure. I'll do this. Is there any dependency to other features? Or just a On/Off checkbox, which always works?

[ilia3101]

Yeah, just an on off checkbox that always works.

[masc4ii]

Good. I'll do this soon. I found a small bug with it: linear gradient looks wrong:

[ilia3101]

Will look in to this. Does the issue go away when it's disabled?

[masc4ii]

It goes away when linear gradient is disabled. For agx I'll have to create the checkbox first.

[masc4ii]

The AgX checkbox arrived. Issue is only there if linear gradient enabled. Disabling AgX won't change the bug.

[masc4ii]

When switching camera matrix off, linear gradient works as expected, with AgX.

[masc4ii]

Yeah. Fixed. Try out!

[ilia3101]

Thank you!!!

You did it before I even looked!

[ilia3101]

Are we ready for a 1.14 release yet?

[masc4ii]

The update is great. Thank you Ilia. It looks so much better! Before:

Are we ready for a 1.14 release yet?

We could release, if you like. How do we describe AgX? Maybe we should add this in new features section for the update.

[ilia3101]

That's a great improvement. Nice medical robot too 😉

We could release, if you like.

I'ts about time, it's been over a year now :)

How do we describe AgX? Maybe we should add this in new features section for the update.

How about "Improved reproduction of saturated colours, with less clipping and smoother tonality. Especially helpful for shooting under RGB LEDs."

[masc4ii]

Ok! :)

@bouncyball-git : ready for a little compile session for Win build? Please use latest Win ffmpeg from the repo for the archive. 2x macOS and Linux is ready and uploaded.

This is great , ill recompile again. Ilia would it be possible to add functionality to raw2mlv that would include sound in MLV file if theres WAV file in folder with dngs ? So recrodings from other cameras like blackmagic , sigma pf or smarpthones RAW could be imported into mlvapp with sound ? Its currently a bit tedious work to merge sound with all clips one by one after export from mlvapp. Being able to choose multiple folders with dngs at once would help too but i should probably create new topic here for that. Also theres an issue in raw2mlv that it does not import more than 800dng frames, when it encounters more dngs in folder it ignores them, i think its command line limit on windows.

[bouncyball-git]

Better later than never :). Static build uploaded.

[bouncyball-git]

Very cool impovement! Congrats!

[bouncyball-git]

https://mlv.app/ needs update?

[masc4ii]

Ah cool... thx! Now we have dynamic & static builds, nice. The webpage should automatically be updated, as soon we release. It is still a draft...

[ilia3101]

What else do we need to add?

[bouncyball-git]

@masc4ii: yeah now we have all imaginable platforms/builds supported :D, very cool!
