2.0.0 - 2019-05-22
Changes for ITU ADM renderer reference code.
- Changes to rendering of Objects specified using Cartesian parameters.
- Added conversion between Cartesian and polar Objects parameters.
- Changed to BSD-Clear license.
1.2.0 - 2019-05-22
- Slightly non-normalised gains in extent panner.
- Improved downmix/upmix behaviour for DirectSpeakers content specified using the common definitions.
- Change default azimuth of M+-SC to 15.
- Support wider azimuths for M+-SC; they may now be between 5 and 25 degrees, or 35 and 60 degrees.
- Removed LFE behaviour for Objects.
- Validate Cartesian and frequency information for Objects
1.1.2 - 2019-05-22
- Bug whereby NaNs could be produced in polar extent panner.
1.1.1 - 2019-04-12
aspectRatio
is an attribute not an element.- Accept the
urn:ebu:metadata-schema:ebuCore_2016
namespace. - Added default for Z coordinates.
- Various deprecation warnings.
- Specified loudspeaker positions are now checked against the allowed ranges.
- Validation of screenEdgeLock in Objects.
1.1.0 - 2018-11-26
adm_parent
references in ADM objects.
Matrix
type support.- Simple validation of ADM data model, and more extensive validation of ADM structures.
- Support for rendering objects with silent
audioTrackUID
references. - Support for
audioPackFormat
HOA parameters. - Selection of
audioProgramme
and complementaryaudioObjects
fromear-render
. adm_path
toRenderingItems
, with pointers to the corresponding ADM objects. This is not used by the renderer but is a useful feature for other applications built on top of the underlying ADM library.- Support for more flexible referencing of nested
audioPackFormats
; eachaudioTrackUID
orchna
row can reference any appropriateaudioPackFormat
on the path from the rootaudioPackFormat
(which contains the full set ofaudioChannelFormats
used) to theaudioPackFormat
that contains theaudioChannelFormat
of the track. - Better support for using multi-channel
audioPackFormats
-- in anaudioObject
orchna
-only file using multipleaudioPackFormats
may be ambiguous if they share someaudioChannelFormats
. This should now be handled correctly in all cases.
- The reference direction between
audioTrackFormat
andaudioStreamFormat
was reversed in the data model (audioTrackFormat
s now point at a singleaudioStreamFormat
), andaxml
references in either direction now establish this relationship. Note that this does not follow the exact wording in BS.2076-1, but this helps compatibility with other systems and should match future revisions of BS.2076. If either of these references are omitted a warning will be issued when a file is rendered. When generating BW64+ADM files (withear-utils
) both reference directions are now included. - Complete re-implementation of
RenderingItem
selection to support other features in this release. This functionality was moved fromear.fileio.utils
toear.core.select_items
. RenderingItems
now use theTrackSpec
structure rather than an index to point to their source audio, to allow for silent andMatrix
tracks.
1.0.1 - 2018-11-23
- An error will be raised if any
audioTrackUID
elements or CHNA rows have IDATU_00000000
, as references to these elements could be confused with silentaudioTrackUID
references. - Miscellaneous improvements to testing infrastructure.
- When generating BW64+ADM files (with
ear-utils
), do not generateaudioTrackUID
s with IDATU_00000000
, which (as above) could be confused with silentaudioTrackUID
references. - Updated use of
attrs
to fix deprecation warnings. - Wrong imports and CHNA chunk generation in
replace_axml
command. - Pytest warnings fixed by upgrading
pytest-datafiles
to 2.0. - Error when testing
block_aligner
on python 3.7 with coverage enabled. - Error in
PeakMonitor
when rendering very short files. dump_chna
in binary mode on python 3.- Padding character in axml chunk.
Initial release.
