This is the second in a series of monthly newsletters summarising updates to projects, blog posts and any tech news that has caught my interest.
Highlight
Introducing Faze Video
A new NuGet package has been added Faze.Rendering.Video.FFMPEG.
This package extends the faze pipeline to add video rendering! The pipeline can now be split up and iterated over in order to produce video frames. The frames are piped to an externally installed ffmpeg command, so no filling up directories with hundreds of images - just straight to video!
Blog Posts
thumbsup Custom Theme & Metadata
This is how to integrate custom metadata into a thumbsup gallery and how I used the methods to include and display custom data in the faze gallery.
Faze Gallery Improvements
The faze gallery has been improved to give a better understanding of what the visualisation is representing. The change adds structure, tagging and a breakdown of the settings used to construct the image.
