This closes a ''conceptual gap.'' There was a `lib::TestFrame::reseed()` function, which should be invoked whenever a clean / deterministinc seed is required for computations involving `TestFrame` data. On occasion I noticed that most actual usages of `TestFrame`, which became quite common lately, were missing this `reseed()` call, while the enclosing test had indeed a proper Test::seedRand() call. So my conclusion is: if even ''I myself'' miss that fine point frequently, it is justified to automated this setup, even while `TestFrame` is right now the only client of such a setup-facility. There is a twist though. `TestFrame` is part of the ''Engine'' test coverage, i.e. it is linked into `libtest-core.so`. While the support for random numbers and reseeding is obviously a very basic library feature, and linked into `liblumiera.so` **Oh well**. So now we have ''yet another'' static registration service. I kept everything as simple as possible, which means, we continue to use the ''common, global random generator'' from the library, and there is no protection against some other code using those library functions in a non-deterministic way. `lib/random-reseed.cpp` is just a glorified hard-wired setup, beware! |

Lumiera -- the video NLE for Linux ================================== Version: 0.pre.05~dev :Date: 11/2025 ************************************************************* Lumiera is a non-linear video editing and compositing tool. The Application will allow to edit footage using common multimedia formats and audio/video stream codecs. Lumiera features nondestructive editing, compositing tools, a selection of effects plugins, processing in RGB, YUV and RGB-float colour models and the ability to mix media with differing sizes and framerates. Lumiera is especially well suited for large and elaborate professional editing tasks with lots of material, several scenes, nested sequences, colour grading, 3D support, full fledged sound montage and multiple edit versions prepared in parallel. NOTE: as of 11/2025, Lumiera is in early development stage; it is not usable yet. The above describes the Lumiera project vision, the implementation of which will require many more years. Visit https://Lumiera.org and join the mailing list when interested in Lumiera planning and development. **************************************************************** Lumiera pre-Alpha Versions -------------------------- .This source tree doesn't contain a working video editing application yet. Rather, it contains the framework and technology core of the envisioned Application »Lumiera«. What we attempt to build here is innovative, and we must engage in a series of integration steps to search for suitable pathways towards our envisaged architecture. Since 2024, the integration of the Render Engine takes centre stage, in an effort to establish a steady state realtime processing and display pipeline, still relying on generated video data rather than using a library to read and playback a video file. - https://Lumiera.org/documentation/design/governance/integration.html[Integration steps] - See also https://issues.lumiera.org/roadmap[Project roadmap] Build Requirements ------------------ For building Lumiera, you'll need: * C++23 compiler GCC >=14 (Clang fails atm) * Git Version management system * https://www.scons.org/[SCons build system] * https://www.boost.org/[Boost libraries] * https://github.com/bplaum/gavl[GAVL library] * https://www.alsa-project.org/[ALSA (libasound2-dev)] * https://nobug.pipapo.org/[NoBug library] * https://gtkmm.gnome.org/en/[gtkmm] * https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libXv[libXv] * https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/LibRsvg[lib rSVG] * https://git.lumiera.org/?p=debian/gdl;a=summary[lib GDL] * https://git.lumiera.org/?p=debian/gdlmm;a=summary[GDL-mm bindings] Further information: * Online documentation at https://Lumiera.org/download.html[Build and install]. * Documentation is also available in-tree in 'doc/user/tutorials/building.txt' * Source code can be retrieved with `git clone git://git.lumiera.org/LUMIERA` Debian Package -------------- Hermann Vosseler (aka Ichthyo) maintains a *Debian* packaging of the source tree - the package definition can be pulled from `git://git.lumiera.org/debian/lumiera/` - the package can be built by `git-buildpackage`
