2 Changes in Sonic Annotator 1.1 since the previous release 1.0:
|
Chris@127
|
3
|
Chris@127
|
4 Front-end changes:
|
Chris@127
|
5
|
Chris@127
|
6 - Add support for the start time and duration properties of a
|
Chris@127
|
7 transform, applying a plugin to only a range of the input audio
|
Chris@128
|
8 - Add --multiplex option to compose multiple audio files into a
|
Chris@128
|
9 single multi-channel stream with one input file per channel
|
Chris@172
|
10 - Add --normalise to request each audio file be normalised to 1.0 max
|
Chris@172
|
11 - Add support for the plugin_version property of a transform, causing
|
Chris@172
|
12 Sonic Annotator to refuse to run with the wrong version of a plugin
|
Chris@128
|
13 - Add --minversion option to permit scripts to check that the
|
Chris@128
|
14 version of Sonic Annotator is as they expect
|
Chris@172
|
15 - Add new housekeeping options to list the available feature writers
|
Chris@172
|
16 and supported audio file formats
|
Chris@172
|
17 - Pull out the feature-writer-specific help text into separate help
|
Chris@172
|
18 options (-h <writertype>) as the help was getting too long
|
Chris@172
|
19
|
Chris@172
|
20 Back-end (feature writer) changes:
|
Chris@172
|
21
|
Chris@172
|
22 - Add --csv-omit-filename, --csv-end-times, and --csv-fill-ends
|
Chris@172
|
23 options to the CSV feature writer to adjust various aspects of its
|
Chris@172
|
24 output
|
Chris@172
|
25 - Add "json" feature writer, exporting to JAMS (JSON Annotated Music
|
Chris@172
|
26 Specificiation) format. This writer is provisional and is expected
|
Chris@172
|
27 to change in future releases to comply more effectively with the
|
Chris@172
|
28 specification
|
Chris@172
|
29 - Add "midi" feature writer, exporting to MIDI files
|
Chris@172
|
30 - Add "lab" feature writer, exporting to tab-separated label files.
|
Chris@172
|
31 (This is equivalent to using the CSV writer with a tab separator and
|
Chris@172
|
32 the new --csv-omit-filename and --csv-end-times options, but it's
|
Chris@172
|
33 simpler to use if .lab is what you want)
|
Chris@128
|
34
|
Chris@128
|
35 Bug fixes:
|
Chris@128
|
36
|
Chris@128
|
37 - Fix the former habit of forging ahead even if not all transform
|
Chris@128
|
38 files could be found or parsed (this may have been intentional
|
Chris@128
|
39 behaviour but it is confusing more than it is useful)
|
Chris@128
|
40 - Fix failure to support --summary-only flag when reading transforms
|
Chris@128
|
41 with summaries from a transform file
|
Chris@71
|
42
|
Chris@172
|
43
|
Chris@86
|
44 Changes in Sonic Annotator 1.0 since the previous release 0.7:
|
Chris@71
|
45
|
Chris@87
|
46 Bug fixes:
|
Chris@87
|
47
|
Chris@71
|
48 - Fix incorrect samplerate in reading m4a files on OS/X
|
Chris@73
|
49 - Fix incorrect handling of FixedSampleRate outputs (Vamp SDK fix)
|
Chris@86
|
50 - Add tests that use the Vamp test plugin
|
Chris@65
|
51
|
Chris@172
|
52
|
Chris@65
|
53 Changes in Sonic Annotator 0.7 since the previous release 0.6:
|
Chris@65
|
54
|
Chris@65
|
55 Build changes:
|
Chris@65
|
56
|
Chris@65
|
57 - Support 64-bit builds on OS/X (using CoreAudio instead of
|
Chris@65
|
58 obsolete QuickTime audio file reader)
|
Chris@65
|
59
|
Chris@65
|
60 - Simplify RDF reading and fix some bugs. Now requires Dataquay
|
Chris@65
|
61 (http://breakfastquay.com/dataquay/) rather than using Redland
|
Chris@65
|
62 directly. Release builds use Sord/Serd rather than Redland
|
Chris@49
|
63
|
Chris@172
|
64
|
Chris@49
|
65 Changes in Sonic Annotator 0.6 since the previous release 0.5:
|
Chris@49
|
66
|
Chris@49
|
67 Build changes:
|
Chris@49
|
68
|
Chris@49
|
69 - Switch to modular SV-libraries build using svcore library
|
Chris@53
|
70 - We now require Vamp plugin SDK v2.3
|
Chris@49
|
71 - Add autoconf configure script
|
Chris@49
|
72
|
Chris@49
|
73 Front-end changes:
|
Chris@49
|
74
|
Chris@49
|
75 - Pick up default sample rate and channel count from the first
|
Chris@49
|
76 audio file, where not specified in the transform, instead of using
|
Chris@49
|
77 hard coded defaults
|
Chris@53
|
78 - Make it possible to specify the window shape in transform
|
Chris@49
|
79 - Fix the --csv-one-file option which did not work in 0.5
|
Chris@49
|
80 - Fix --force option when using playlists
|
Chris@49
|
81 - Add -v option to print version number and exit
|
Chris@36
|
82
|
Chris@172
|
83
|
Chris@36
|
84 Changes in Sonic Annotator 0.5 since the previous release 0.4:
|
Chris@36
|
85
|
Chris@36
|
86 Build changes:
|
Chris@36
|
87
|
Chris@36
|
88 - Remove unused audioio library and avoid its dependencies
|
Chris@36
|
89
|
Chris@36
|
90 Front-end changes:
|
Chris@36
|
91
|
Chris@36
|
92 - Avoid leaking file descriptors on exceptions
|
Chris@36
|
93 - Fix embarrassing bug that caused failure to mix down to mono
|
Chris@36
|
94 properly for single-channel plugins with multi-channel input files
|
Chris@36
|
95 - Fail sooner if the output file is not writable (i.e. don't wait
|
Chris@36
|
96 until the first data is available for writing)
|
Chris@23
|
97
|
Chris@172
|
98
|
Chris@27
|
99 Changes in Sonic Annotator 0.4 since the previous release 0.3:
|
Chris@27
|
100
|
Chris@27
|
101 Build changes:
|
Chris@27
|
102
|
Chris@27
|
103 - Sonic Annotator now requires the Vamp plugin SDK v2.1 or newer.
|
Chris@27
|
104
|
Chris@27
|
105 Front-end changes:
|
Chris@27
|
106
|
Chris@28
|
107 - Frequency-domain plugins now use the PluginInputDomainAdapter's new
|
Chris@28
|
108 ShiftData processing method, ensuring that the first block received
|
Chris@28
|
109 by the plugin is the one centred on 0 rather than starting at 0.
|
Chris@28
|
110 Unfortunately, the old behaviour omitted a timing compensation step,
|
Chris@28
|
111 and this fix actually changes the results from some plugin processes:
|
Chris@28
|
112 the previous behaviour was not always in line with the Vamp plugin
|
Chris@28
|
113 specification.
|
Chris@28
|
114
|
Chris@27
|
115 - More useful diagnostics are now available when a plugin fails to
|
Chris@28
|
116 load or run.
|
Chris@27
|
117
|
Chris@27
|
118 CSV back-end (feature writer) changes:
|
Chris@27
|
119
|
Chris@27
|
120 - The CSV writer now closes its output files properly when it
|
Chris@27
|
121 finishes writing to each one, rather than leaving them all open
|
Chris@27
|
122 until the end and risk running out of file descriptors. This was
|
Chris@27
|
123 already the behaviour of the RDF writer, the CSV one has just been
|
Chris@27
|
124 updated to match it.
|
Chris@27
|
125 - The behaviour of the CSV writer has also been changed to match
|
Chris@27
|
126 that of the RDF writer in handling file write failures (it now
|
Chris@27
|
127 continues processing only if --force is given).
|
Chris@27
|
128
|
Chris@27
|
129
|
Chris@27
|
130 Changes in Sonic Annotator 0.3 since the previous release 0.2:
|
Chris@23
|
131
|
Chris@23
|
132 Front-end changes:
|
Chris@23
|
133
|
Chris@23
|
134 - A new --force front-end option (distinct from the --csv-force and
|
Chris@23
|
135 --rdf-force back-end options) has been added, which makes Sonic
|
Chris@23
|
136 Annotator continue to process subsequent audio files instead of
|
Chris@23
|
137 exiting after an error, if multiple audio files have been specified.
|
Chris@23
|
138
|
Chris@23
|
139 RDF back-end (feature writer) changes:
|
Chris@23
|
140
|
Chris@23
|
141 - The RDF writer now conforms more correctly with the Music Ontology
|
Chris@23
|
142 in the way it relates signal, track, and track metadata. Signals
|
Chris@23
|
143 that have available metadata now gain a Track resource to associate
|
Chris@23
|
144 that metadata with, instead of hanging it directly from the Signal
|
Chris@23
|
145 resource; also the audio file now encodes the signal rather than the
|
Chris@23
|
146 signal being available as the audio file (matching the domain
|
Chris@23
|
147 specification of the Music Ontology). Note that this new resource
|
Chris@23
|
148 structure will not be properly read by versions of Sonic Visualiser
|
Chris@23
|
149 prior to 1.6 (should importing the data into Sonic Visualiser be of
|
Chris@23
|
150 interest to you).
|
Chris@23
|
151
|
Chris@23
|
152 - The --rdf-signal-uri option has been removed and replaced with the
|
Chris@23
|
153 more meaningful set of options --rdf-audiofile-uri, --rdf-track-uri,
|
Chris@23
|
154 and --rdf-maker-uri.
|
Chris@23
|
155
|
Chris@23
|
156 - A new --rdf-network option is available, to cause Sonic Annotator
|
Chris@23
|
157 to try to retrieve RDF descriptions for plugins from the network
|
Chris@23
|
158 where those descriptions are not available locally. Use of this
|
Chris@23
|
159 option is recommended, but it is not the default because of the
|
Chris@23
|
160 possible performance implication (even though the results are mostly
|
Chris@23
|
161 cached, there may be some network access involved).
|
Chris@23
|
162
|
Chris@23
|
163 - The RDF writer now writes the computed_by property for signal
|
Chris@23
|
164 features.
|
Chris@23
|
165
|
Chris@23
|
166 - Plugin and output URIs in the resulting RDF are now percent-encoded.
