Filter Invert Colors

[RSATom]

Didn't find any libvlc option for it, and didn't find any QML effect, but it's still doable by modify shader a little bit at https://github.com/RSATom/QmlVlc/blob/master/SGVlcVideoNode.cpp#L76

Ah great thank you!

[colek42]

we are having some trouble compiling the source fron the current HEAD of master. vs2013 is giving the error mismatch detected for 'RuntimeLibrary': value 'MD_DynamicRelease' doesn't match value 'MT_StaticRelease' in Chimera.obj. Any suggestions? We have some custom QML files so we need to compile from source.

Try delete build folder and rerun prep script

I've found how to solve this task solely on QML level:

    VlcVideoSurface {
        id: s1;
        source: vlcPlayer;
        anchors.fill: parent;
    }
    ShaderEffect {
        property variant source: ShaderEffectSource { sourceItem: s1; hideSource: true }
        anchors.fill: parent

        fragmentShader: "
            varying highp vec2 qt_TexCoord0;
            uniform sampler2D source;
            void main(void)
            {
                lowp vec4 tex = texture2D( source, qt_TexCoord0 );
                gl_FragColor = vec4( 1. - tex.r, 1. - tex.g, 1. - tex.b, tex.a );
            }
        "
    }

Btw, maybe it will be interesting to you, I've released proof-of-concept of desktop WebChimera: https://github.com/RSATom/WebChimera-desktop/releases

@RSATom,

The invert filter worked great. How can I hide it at runtime? I tried setting visible: false, but it hides the VlcVideoSurface as well. I also tried opacity: 0. I've got my javascript functions hooked up with emitJsMessage on WebChimeraPlayer. and in Functions.qml.

I think you should try set hideSource = false first. If it will not help - I'll try find solution. I think it should be something simple.

Just tried hideSource = false, no effect? Let me know if you find another solution, thanks!

following works for me:

    VlcPlayer {
        id: vlcPlayer;
        mrl: "http://download.blender.org/peach/bigbuckbunny_movies/big_buck_bunny_480p_stereo.avi";
    }
    VlcVideoSurface {
        id: s1
        source: vlcPlayer;

        anchors.centerIn: parent;
        width: parent.width / 2;
        height: parent.height / 2;
    }
    ShaderEffectSource {
        id: shaderSource;
        sourceItem: s1;
        hideSource: true;
    }
    ShaderEffect {
        id: shaderEffect;
        anchors.centerIn: parent;
        width: parent.width / 2;
        height: parent.height / 2;

        property variant source: shaderSource;

        fragmentShader: "
            varying highp vec2 qt_TexCoord0;
            uniform sampler2D source;
            void main(void)
            {
                lowp vec4 tex = texture2D( source, qt_TexCoord0 );
                gl_FragColor = vec4( 1. - tex.r, 1. - tex.g, 1. - tex.b, tex.a );
            }
        "
    }
    MouseArea {
        anchors.fill: parent
        onClicked: { shaderSource.hideSource = !shaderSource.hideSource; shaderEffect.visible =  shaderSource.hideSource; }
    }

[sclem]

You're the man. That worked perfect, thanks!

I'm glad to see you happy :)
