The existing implementation of the Player from 2012~2015 inclduded an additional differentiation by media channel (for multichannel media) and would build a separate CalcStream for each channel. The in-depth analysis conducted for the ongoing »Vertical Slice« effort revealed that this differentiation is besides the point and would never be materialised: Since -- by definition -- all media processing has to be done by the engine, also the generation of the final output format including any channel multiplexing will happen in render nodes. The only exception would be when only a single channel of multichannel media is extracted -- yet this case would then translate into a dedicated ModelPort. Based on this reasoning, a lot of complexity (and some contradictions) within the JobTicket implementation can be removed -- together with some further leftovers of the fist attempt to build JobTickets always from a Mock specification (we now use construction by the Segment, based on an ExitNode, which is the expected actual implementation for production setup) |
