As the file monitor ignores files with unknown extensions (as + is the case for the temporary files created by camerabin2) we could only + just append the new file. But because the user might also move a + picture/video manually from the Pictures/Webcam or Videos/Webcam + directories, removing the old file from the thumb-view keeps it + up-to-date with the state of the file system. + + If camerabin2 switches away from the create-temp+move approach, to the + camerabin one (create the destination file directly), we're prepared + to handle that code with G_FILE_MONITOR_EVENT_CHANGES_DONE_HINT. + - Rename filename and capture-start/stop + Quote from camerabin2's PORTING guide: + +[...] is now called 'location' instead of 'filename' + + The signals were renamed from capture-start/stop to start/stop-capture + as this is the usual naming on actions. + - Video filter on camera_source applies to all modes + If the effect is applied on camera_source, the effect will be available + in viewfinder and image/video capture modes. + - Minimal functionality based on camerabin2 + These are the minimal changes needed to integrate camerabin2. + + Support for: + - viewfinder (Cheese's main window) + - effect previews + + Porting details: + - obviously, the name has changed to camerabin2 + - Camerabin2 requires something special from it's "camera-source". + + We use the "wrappercamerabinsrc" module provided by camerabin2 which + creates a "camera-source" suitable for camerabin2 based on a regular + video source. + - Depend on GTK+ 3.4.4 for GtkIconView changes + - Request correct number of thumbview columns + Rather then assuming 5000 will be enough, just set the number of columns + to the number of thumbnails in the view.
