Chris@49
|
11
|
Chris@49
|
12 - Pick up default sample rate and channel count from the first
|
Chris@49

13 audio file, where not specified in the transform, instead of using

20 Changes in Sonic Annotator 0.5 since the previous release 0.4:
|
Chris@36
|
21
|
Chris@36
|
22 Build changes:
|
Chris@36
|
23
|
Chris@36
|
24 - Remove unused audioio library and avoid its dependencies
|
Chris@36
|
25
|
Chris@36
|
26 Front-end changes:
|
Chris@36
|
27
|
Chris@36
|
28 - Avoid leaking file descriptors on exceptions
|
Chris@36
|
29 - Fix embarrassing bug that caused failure to mix down to mono
|
Chris@36
|
30 properly for single-channel plugins with multi-channel input files
|
Chris@36
|
31 - Fail sooner if the output file is not writable (i.e. don't wait
|
Chris@36
|
32 until the first data is available for writing)
|
Chris@23
|
33
|
Chris@27
|
34 Changes in Sonic Annotator 0.4 since the previous release 0.3:
|
Chris@27
|
35
|
Chris@27
|
36 Build changes:
|
Chris@27
|
37
|
Chris@27
|
38 - Sonic Annotator now requires the Vamp plugin SDK v2.1 or newer.
|
Chris@27
|
39
|
Chris@27
|
40 Front-end changes:
|
Chris@27
|
41
|
Chris@28
|
42 - Frequency-domain plugins now use the PluginInputDomainAdapter's new
|
Chris@28
|
43 ShiftData processing method, ensuring that the first block received
|
Chris@28
|
44 by the plugin is the one centred on 0 rather than starting at 0.
|
Chris@28
|
45 Unfortunately, the old behaviour omitted a timing compensation step,
|
Chris@28
|
46 and this fix actually changes the results from some plugin processes:
|
Chris@28
|
47 the previous behaviour was not always in line with the Vamp plugin
|
Chris@28
|
48 specification.
|
Chris@28
|
49
|
Chris@27
|
50 - More useful diagnostics are now available when a plugin fails to
|
Chris@28
|
51 load or run.
|
Chris@27
|
52
|
Chris@27
|
53 CSV back-end (feature writer) changes:
|
Chris@27
|
54
|
Chris@27
|
55 - The CSV writer now closes its output files properly when it
|
Chris@27
|
56 finishes writing to each one, rather than leaving them all open
|
Chris@27
|
57 until the end and risk running out of file descriptors. This was
|
Chris@27
|
58 already the behaviour of the RDF writer, the CSV one has just been
|
Chris@27
|
59 updated to match it.
|
Chris@27
|
60 - The behaviour of the CSV writer has also been changed to match
|
Chris@27
|
61 that of the RDF writer in handling file write failures (it now
|
Chris@27
|
62 continues processing only if --force is given).
|
Chris@27
|
63
|
Chris@27
|
64
|
Chris@27
|
65 Changes in Sonic Annotator 0.3 since the previous release 0.2:
|
Chris@23
|
66
|
Chris@23
|
67 Front-end changes:
|
Chris@23
|
68
|
Chris@23
|
69 - A new --force front-end option (distinct from the --csv-force and
|
Chris@23
|
70 --rdf-force back-end options) has been added, which makes Sonic
|
Chris@23
|
71 Annotator continue to process subsequent audio files instead of
|
Chris@23
|
72 exiting after an error, if multiple audio files have been specified.
|
Chris@23
|
73
|
Chris@23
|
74 RDF back-end (feature writer) changes:
|
Chris@23
|
75
|
Chris@23
|
76 - The RDF writer now conforms more correctly with the Music Ontology
|
Chris@23
|
77 in the way it relates signal, track, and track metadata. Signals
|
Chris@23
|
78 that have available metadata now gain a Track resource to associate
|
Chris@23
|
79 that metadata with, instead of hanging it directly from the Signal
|
Chris@23
|
80 resource; also the audio file now encodes the signal rather than the
|
Chris@23
|
81 signal being available as the audio file (matching the domain
|
Chris@23
|
82 specification of the Music Ontology). Note that this new resource
|
Chris@23
|
83 structure will not be properly read by versions of Sonic Visualiser
|
Chris@23
|
84 prior to 1.6 (should importing the data into Sonic Visualiser be of
|
Chris@23
|
85 interest to you).
|
Chris@23
|
86
|
Chris@23
|
87 - The --rdf-signal-uri option has been removed and replaced with the
|
Chris@23
|
88 more meaningful set of options --rdf-audiofile-uri, --rdf-track-uri,
|
Chris@23
|
89 and --rdf-maker-uri.
|
Chris@23
|
90
|
Chris@23
|
91 - A new --rdf-network option is available, to cause Sonic Annotator
|
Chris@23
|
92 to try to retrieve RDF descriptions for plugins from the network
|
Chris@23
|
93 where those descriptions are not available locally. Use of this
|
Chris@23
|
94 option is recommended, but it is not the default because of the
|
Chris@23
|
95 possible performance implication (even though the results are mostly
|
Chris@23
|
96 cached, there may be some network access involved).
|
Chris@23
|
97
|
Chris@23
|
98 - The RDF writer now writes the computed_by property for signal
|
Chris@23
|
99 features.
|
Chris@23
|
100
|
Chris@23
|
101 - Plugin and output URIs in the resulting RDF are now percent-encoded.
