Revision History (TitleFactory)

Version 3.0-BLDQ (18 November 2007) 

• Minor changes to previous release to make messages more consistent.

• Documentation has been updated to reflect changes made in Version 3.0-BLDP (01 November 2007)

Version 3.0-BLDP (01 November 2007) 

Main Window Functions

• New Automatic Timecode Generation which is useful for situations where exact synchronization of text and voice is not required.  Given starting and ending timecode values TitleFactory 4.0 can estimate any number of intermediate timecodes, setting the starting and ending values based on the length of the corresponding text entries.

• New Search/Replace Text Function for text in the image text list on the main window.  If your director or editor want text changes and you have already timecoded your text, the new Search Function can find (and possibly replace) your text entries quickly.

• New Merge Text Function on the main window provides the ability to merge timecodes and associated text in one function.

• New Coelesce Function to adjust timecodes.  The timecodes' Starting Timecode can be automatically set to the previous timecode's Ending Timecode (or vice versa - or anything in-between).

• New Split Timecode and Split Text Functions.  This allows you to split text and timecode entries into two and automatically generate the missing timecode vallues (using the new Automatic Timecode Generation Function).

• New functions that operate on both text and timecode lists at the same time. These include:

Deselect
Delete Text and Timecode Entries
Shift Text and Timecode Entries Down
Merge Text and Timecode Entries
Split Text and Timecode Entries
Undo/Redo previous Text and Timecode Changes

Input Window Functions

• New Hexidecimal display of the text file to determine if you really have a UTF/Unicode formatted file.  Thius may also be useful to determine why some characters are not being displayed properly by your selected font.

• New additional Unicode support encoding types (e.g., UTF-16 and UTF-32)
   

Image Creation

• New horizontal character spacing in image creation.  Spacing between characters can be increased or decreased (bit by bit).

• New variable stroke widths.  The strokes (inner and outer) are longer limited to 1 pixel wide.

• Improved performance of stroking.  Much better performance than previous version.

• Support up to 10 lines per text entry.  Yes, that is 10 lines per image, or 10 lines per subtitle.  This may be useful for introductions or endings.

• New an 'estimated time remaining' when creating images.

Other Functions

• New Deactivation Function in Help menu.  The product can be moved to, and activated on, another machine.  Of course, it must first be deactivated on the current machine.

• New CMD3600 EDL (edit decision list subtitle text format).  Subtitles written in this format can be imported into a variety of Non Linear Editing Programs such as Adobe Premiere, Sony Vegas, and others.

Version 2.01-BLDE (16 March 2003)

Features:

TitleFactory:

• TitleFactory now supports the creation of SST header information (based on the color settings in the Output Settings Window for better support of Sonic Solution's ReelDVD^® and Scenarist^® products.   TitleFactory can also produce a 'standalone' SST-2 header text file.  This file can then be read and attached to SST-2  formatted files that are created by TitleFactory and Tlister.  TitleFactory can create the SST header file automatically or manually based on TitleFactory preference settings.  Information on how TitleFactory populates SST-2 Header information can be found here.  The header information has been tested with Sonic Solution's ReelDVD^® 3.0.3.

Version 2.01-BLDD (11 March 2003)

Features:

TitleFactory:

• TitleFactory now supports the creation of an  'Output Timecode Text file'  for  timecoded input files.  Formerly, the procedure was to run the TFA file through TitleFactory to perform this function.  Incorporation of this feature into TitleFactory, saves a step.  The formats supported are Impression, SST-2, DVD Studio Pro, DVD Maestro, or Subtitle timing.

• TitleFactory now has the ability to read non-windows formatted text files, that is, files created on the UNIX or MacIntosh platforms.

• DVD Maestro has been added as an input format option in the default tc_definitions_file.txt.

Version 2.01-BLDC (10 March 2003)

Fixes:

TitleFactory:

• Corrected bad message which occurred when the first image create had no text on it.  It caused the TFA file not to be written.

• Add image count to status message when creating images so that the progress could be better determined. (Not really a bug!)

TitleFactory:

• Corrected a problem inputting timecoded TFA files (that is, when the input to TitleFactory is a timecoded file, then the TFA file will contain the timecode information, and TitleFactory should display the information).  In this case TitleFactory was not displaying the timecode information correctly.

Version 2.01-BLDB (09 March 2003)

New Features:

TitleFactory:

• Support for UTF-8 input files.  This is the beginning of several enhancements designed to make TitleFactory multi-language capable.  In this release TitleFactory can read Unicode files that are encoded in the popular UTF08 format.  Although the User Interface of the TitleFactory products cannot display Unicode characters correctly, TitleFactory can still produce images for any languages.  Unicode encodings are available for hundreds of languages and written text.  Specific TitleFactory changes include encode parameters which have been added to both the input and output image settings windows.  When UTF-8 is specified all file input and out is read and written in UTF-8 format (except for the project files, and timecode definitions files).  The printed report output will be printed in UIF-8, and can therefore be displayed in the correct script.

  The limitations of Unicode support in this release include the following:

  • The TitleFactory User Interfaces does not support the display of Unicode characters including text and report windows.

  • Since TitleFactory also does not support Unicode, some written languages will be unrecognizable on the TitleFactory window.  However, TLister can still be used to create timecoded text files.  TitleFactory does not have a UTF-8 input setting. in this release.  The TFA file for some languages, however, can be converted to ASCII with NotePad, without much loss of characters (depending on the language).

  • The wrap and unwrap text modes which allows TitleFactory to automatically parse scripts will not work for Right to Left written text is not supported, yet.  However, TitleFactory can be used if the input is either a Timecoded text file or and Exact text file, where intelligent parsing is not required.

  • Non-ASCII will not work in the Prototype function on the Output Image Settings window.

Fixes:

• TitleFactory: Corrected problems associated with reading font information from the project files.

• TitleFactory: Fixed problems with delimiter between text line (they were not always recognized).

• TitleFactory: Corrected opening of wav files which caused additional timelines to appear on main window.

Known Bugs:

•  The Prototype function displays colored streaks occasionally in an image if a BMP base file is used.  GIF files work ok.  JPEG is not supported as a base file type in this release.

• The Prototype function does not always work on the first button press.  Repeated button presses are sometimes required.

Version 2.00-BLDB (03 February 2003)

New Features:

TitleFactory:

• Added Timeline to main window.

• Changed Timecode Counter interactions to be more user friendly.  Added link/unlink button.

• Changed Play and Playback buttons, reducing 4 buttons to 2, in order to eliminate what is now redundant functionality.

  • Added user definable end-of-sentence punctuation, and option to ignore text that does not end in valid punctuation.

  • Added check for single or double-quotes after the end-of-sentence punctuation.  If a single-quote or double-quote is found then it will be included as part of the sentence.
