It is simply a modifiedversion of the blend (gl) transition, that zooms/fades out the previouspicture, as the new picture fades in. The patch file adds the newtransition- it will be in the mythgallery settings, and is called "zoomblend (gl)". The patch is attached to ticket #490:http://cvs.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/490 . Any feedback would be great!Not currently up-to-date with mythgallery or myth generally with the latest svn versions so can't give feedback but this is the best blend ever invented.If you want to give it it's proper name, I think it is called the "KenBurns Effect"... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ken_Burns#Ken_Burns_EffectProbably worth editing the wiki to say MythTV will have it by v 0.19 :)Col.Slightly OT, but has anyone else noticed the slightly ugly step change in the background colour with glblend? If your pictures aspect ratio doesn't match your display (i.e. a 4:3 image on a 16:9 display) as the images cross fade,the background fades - in my case - from black to a mid-grey. Then it suddenly snaps back to black. Rather spoils the effect... -- Steve Boddy
Steve-Yes I had noticed this. I'm not sure why, but the blend routine puts a 20% grey quad behind the fading image. Attached is a diff that changes this to black, so you dont see the grey flash at all. Hope this helps. :)
