deprecating code around glc file format
This is long term issue. glc file format support will at least be still around at the next release to help smooth migration from glc to glcs.
but as the piping code mature and demonstrate its viability, I think that it will be hard to justify to keep around the old code.
For the sake of simplifying (the already complex) UI and keep the maintenance easy, I think that this code should be removed.
Removing the GLC file format stuff in favor of piping sounds good to me. It would allow the removal of an absolutely massive amount of code and dependencies, greatly simplifying this library's design.
That said, I still have yet to successfully record for more than a few seconds through the pipe system. :wink:
Come over the GLCS forum thread at
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=178343
with a copy of your glcs.log and a copy of your pipe cmd line (You have to personalize it for your setup to work).
I'll be happy to help.
2 advices that comes to my mind is to:
- adjust your system setting /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size as specified in the log
- Depending on your cpu, you need to adjust the libx264 preset to the value of the highest quality that your cpu is able to process in realtime. For mine, it is veryfast. Do some test with ultrafast at first.
