cheese 3.9.91



About Cheese
============

Cheese uses your webcam to take photos and videos, applies fancy
special effects and lets you share the fun with others. It was written
as part of Google's 2007 Summer of Code lead by daniel g. siegel and
mentored by Raphaël Slinckx. Under the hood, Cheese uses GStreamer to
apply fancy effects to photos and videos. With Cheese it is easy to
take photos of you, your friends, pets or whatever you want and share
them with others. After the success of the Summer of Code, the
development continued and we are still looking for people with nice
ideas and patches ;)

  - Do not override errors in camera_state_change_null
    If a more detailed error has already been set (through a GError return
    from libcheese), do not override it when changing state to null.

  - Improve cheese_camera_device_get_best_format()
    If a camera device which can do 1600x900 at 10 FPS and 1280x800 @ 25
    FPS, then 1600x900 is not really the best format, as 10 FPS leads to a
    bad user experience.

    Improve the situation by constraining
    cheese_camera_device_get_best_format() to return the format with the
    highest resolution with a width greater than 640 pixels and a framerate
    of greater the 15 FPS.

    If no mode matching the widh >= 640 && frame_rate >= 15 criteria is found,
    get_best_format will behave as before as simply return the highest
    resolution
    mode.

  - Limit caps to the maximum framerate
    Limit the caps returned by cheese_camera_device_get_caps_for_format() to
    the maximum framerate supported at the requested resolution. This is
    necessary because GStreamer first selects a format and then a framerate,
    resulting in it picking for 1280x720 as an example, YUYV @ 15 FPS,
    instead of MJPEG @ 30 FPS (which will be converted to i420 by the
    videoconvert element in camerabin2), or at 1600x1200 YUYV @ 5 fps
    instead of MJPEG @ 10 fps.
