"Is 3.610s (and 0.810s) the time that cpu is busy to run that specific routine?" Yes |
 |
Thanks Phyllis for your explanation. And I think that “prof2” is very good tool (mostly in the hands of GG and Phyllis) to understand where the problem may be. 3.610s versus .810s Is 3.610s (and 0.810s) the time that cpu is busy to run that specific routine? OK, I think this can be marked resolved soon. By my point of view, user, and my tests, for me it is okay. And if it has also been confirmed by “prof2” and GG/Phyllis’ analysis, you can resolve/close the issue. Thanks! |

OK, I think this can be marked resolved soon. Thanks for the profile output -- you can see before and after results in Igor's profile output as follows: Hesitancy: 3.610s 7.3% ColorButtonPicker::update_gui() 1.0 /home/charlie/... 3.620s 7.3% ColorButton::update_gui(int, int) 1.0 /home/charlie/A... 3.630s 7.4% ColorButtonThread::run() 1.0 /home/charlie/AppImage... After Fix: 0.770s 3.0% ColorButtonPicker::handle_new_color(int, int) 1.0 /home/charlie/... 0.810s 3.1% ColorButton::update_gui(int, int) 1.0 /home/charlie/AppImage/cin... 3.610s versus .810s Also, gg added a USR1 interrupt to the profiler and I updated the document (prof2.pdf) so that plugins can be better measured to avoid including the load time which can be misleading. |

Yeah! The last build Ub16-20190705 (built: Jul 4 2019 18:18:45) works fine. No more hesitancy. Tested in Gradient, Titler and Sketcher. Thanks a lot, GGG (Great GG)! Thanks Phyllis for the new instruction for the “prof” program. If can be useful to demonstrate before/after the hesitancy I added the files create by “prof” using the Gradient plugin (the two screencasts to sync, if it has sense, with the “prof” info): >>> prof-cin201907-03-05_withGradient.tar.gz - “cinelerra-5.1-ub16-x86_64-static_20190703-testing” >> hesitancy (prof-cin20190703-gradient.ogv) https://streamable.com/wrumw - “cinelerra-5.1-ub16-x86_64-static_20190705-testing” >> okay (prof-cin20190705-gradient.ogv) https://streamable.com/a5y0y prof-cin201907-03-05_withGradient.tar.gz (21,790 bytes) |

IgorB: gg made a mod to colorpicker and just checked it in. We are not sure if this fixes it for you but are hoping so. A new build is at: https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/download/testing/cinelerra-5.1-ub16-x86_64-static.txz If it does not, try running the profiler again with a -p parameter for the path, like: prof -p /usr/lib/libprofile.so /mypath/cin |
|
|
Phyllis, thanks for the new build and the info/steps to use prof2. Unfortunately, when I run prof /mypath/cin, "cant find libprofile.so" message came out. I checked in /usr/lib/, and that file is there. Consider I moved the files like explained in your steps except for the administrator privilege: sudo mv libprofile.so /usr/lib/ sudo mv prof smap /usr/bin/ What I wrong? Thanks. |
|
|
Andrea, thank you for testing as it is good to know that the documentation could be followed. GG found no glaring problems in looking at the output (as expected!) Also, you gave him a idea for another small improvement. |
 |
I did a quick test playing with masks, gradient filter and histogram. I attached the file prof. prof_list.tar.gz (9,865 bytes) |

IgorB: OK, when and if you have time, please run the prof2 profiler with the latest Ubuntu 16 build. These are at: https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/download/testing/cinelerra-5.1-ub16-x86_64-static.txz https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/download/testing/prof2_ub16.tgz https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/download/prof2.pdf Usage of prof2 is documented in the pdf file BUT you will not have to build it because the tar ball (.tgz) has it already built for ubuntu 16. Instructions for getting it setup are as follows: The prof2_ub16.tgz file contains: libprofile.so prof smap so... create a tmp directory, cd to it and tar -xzf /path/prof2_ub16.tgz mv libprofile.so /usr/lib/. mv prof smap /usr/bin/. this will install the prof2 profiler on your system. Then you just run it: prof /path/cin GG is going to inspect the colorpicker code to see if there is anything strange. We can not reproduce here. Also, the Ubuntu16 build includes the keyframable Mask Rotate and Scale fix. |

Other info: (referred to cinelerra-5.1-ub16.04-20190630.x86_64-static -built: Jun 30 2019 08:19:07) The Color picker (the color wheel) works fine in plugins: - Chroma key - Chroma key (HSV) - Color3way. The hesitancy, there is always in plugins: - Gradient - Titler - Sketcher Settings: Preferences-> Playback_A-> VideoOut-> VideoDriver: X11 (use direct x11 render if possible) Preferences-> Performance-> Use HW Device = none |

Changes to colorpicker.C, which is used by both Gradient and the Title plugins, were indeed made on June 27th in order to get the Gradient plugin interface to look the same as other colorpickers. GG is going to create a Ubuntu16 profiler binary for IgorB to use to try and determine where the code is spending so much time, thus causing the weird hesitancy. We can not reproduce the problem here still. |

The hesitancy, always occur in the Gradient’s Color window and in the Titler’s Color . In the Color3way plugin, the color wheel works fine. I tested on three Cin version, always for UbuntuStudio16.04: a) cinelerra-5.1-ub16.04-20190531.x86_64-static b) cinelerra-5.1-ub16.04-20190627.x86_64-static_testing (built: Jun 26 2019 18:34:39) c) cinelerra-5.1-ub16.04-20190629.x86_64-static_testing (built: Jun 29 2019 13:47:53) In a) e b) point they are okay. After Cin20190627 version there is always this hesitancy. I think that it depends by Color window not by Titler or Gradient. But I am guessing. @Andrea_paz: thanks. My PC is really old, but this behaviour is strange because in the previous releases (before 20190627) didn’t occur. |

GG is working on the Sketcher hang up. Thanks to Igor for reporting and Andrea for confirming. The Gradient color is different because a lot of work was done on it in June (around June 6) as it was not working correctly in OpenGL. The effort was made to have the OpenGL and the X11 driver versions look the same. In May the 2 versions looked quite different. A fix will be checked into GIT before tomorrow's builds. OK, gg has analyzed Color3Way and said it does not use the same code as the Gradient and Title plugins. Question for IgorB -- when you say that the Titler also has the hesitancy, do you mean that it also is a new behavior between now and last month's release? Work was done on Gradient the the behavior is explainable BUT no work was done this month on the Titler, so if there is new behavior, we need to investigate further. |

1- I have no hesitation moving the cursor of the Color Picker (hardware more powerful?). In any case, if you didn't do it before, there's something going on. 2- I only have one CinGG installed and I can't verify it. 3- I also get a freeze trying to move the cursor of the Color Picker in the Sketcher plugin. |

That symptom (hesitancy), always occur in the Color window, also in Titler. In the Color3way plugin the color wheel works fine. In the Cin-GG-20190531 it is okay. I don’t know if it can help. I have noticed that the Gradient colour is different by Cin releases: Cin20190531 vs Cin20190628a. I only opened the same project with the two Cin releases and the effect is different. I added a gif animated; yes, it is not full colour because it is a gif, but it is good. You can see that the shape’s colour (blu?) on the left side changes. >>> GradientPlugin_20190531-vs-20190628a.gif More (and I should open a new ticket), to see if it occured also in the Sketcher plugins, when I open the Color window, Cinelerra freezes. And I have to use Ctrl+C in terminal to escape. I added the compressed dump. >>> cinelerra_6195.dmp.tar.gz

IgorB: "When I move the mouse pointer, holding down LMB, there is a kind of doubtful (uncertainty)." I see this in your demo but I do not see this on my laptop (I will try it on a smaller laptop later). GG had recoded the color picker for Cinelerra some while back but had not updated any in the plugins -- most likely the recode is handling events differently and that is the cause of the hesitancy. I do not think there is anything we will be able to do about this but I will have GG at least inspect the code to check. |

When I move the mouse pointer, holding down LMB, there is a kind of doubtful (uncertainty). Look at the screencast, please. >>>link to GradientPlugin-color-doubtful.ogv https://streamable.com/w3wvq In the previous testing release (and monthly) there isn’t. Also I saw that now you have to click on the colour rectangle, and the buttons on the left side have been replaced by the text. Good. Thanks. |

This has been checked into GIT. A ubuntu16 build is at: https://www.cinelerra-gg.org/download/testing/cinelerra-5.1-ub16-x86_64-static.txz |

I confirm. Should be easy to fix. |
