| My birthday |
Hi folks,
It is time to see how many people actually check out this blog ;-) .
Well... It is my birthday, let see if I will get any respond here or over e-mail ;-) .
This year the gifts however will be for you. I have added a number of tutorials for VideoLab, AudioLab and SignalLab - http://www.mitov.com/html/tutorials.html, and I am working on more tutorials both for Visual Studio (C#, VB.NET, J#, C++/CLI) and RAD Studio (Delphi and C++ Builder).
The Scope component is also getting a major overhaul. Some down-sampling has been added and the component can now work very fast with more than 1 million samples. More down-sampling will be added and we expect further speed improvements. There are also number of other features added, including rectangular zones for marking and axis interactions. We are also working on adding more axis to the scope, and associating the channels with them.
The libraries are also getting more demos added. With all of this and a lot of fixes and improvements across the libraries, we hope that the next release will be even more fun to use. Our current plan is to have release around the end of January, but it may depend of how the testing will go. As usual we will not release until we are 100% satisfied with the quality.
Cheers,
Boian |

| Version 3.1 is finally here! |
We have finally released Version 3.1 of the libraries.
All the libraries are now officially released for .NET 2.0, and ohh... boy do we have a lot of new stuff in .NET !
We have all the assemblies signed.
The DLLs are assembly resources.
The assemblies now are registered in the GAC and Visual Studio will pick them automatically.
All the design editors working in .NET .
The binary data of the components is stored in the form resources.
The Image properties are working properly.
All the properties and components have descriptions.
The pin connections are now stored in the resources solving the CodeDOM problems in the previous version.
The after pin connections are working.
All the examples are now available in .NET
The installation process is significantly improved.
And we even have improved the help files ;-) .
It took 4 more weeks than expected to get it all done, but we are sure you will love the result :-) .
Please try the new .NET versions, and enjoy them :-) .
We have not forgotten the VCL and the Visual C++ users either.
In this version we have:
added full RAD Studio 2007 support
enhanced the help
added number of new demos
new component editors
added 5 new components in AudioLab
improved the SignalLab filter designers
There are also many other fixes across the libraries.
Cheers,
Boian |

| On the go |
Hi folks,
I will be visiting China for the next 25 days, and will be back on July 10. I expect to have reasonable connectivity during that time, and will try to handle any customer requests, as well as will dispatch some issues to people working for me, however some delays may be encountered. I am sorry for the inconvenience.
With best regards,
Boian Mitov |

| Version 3.0 is finally available! |
We finally released the 3.0 version of all the libraries.
This is by far the biggest release we have ever done. All the libraries have grown, with the VisionLab more than tripling in functionality. There is a new threading model, new improved buffering, new video formats, AudioLab supports multichannel (More than 2 channels) audio, and many more new features.
For first time all the libraries are also available for .NET 2.0 as Betas.
All the libraries also support Delphi 2007.
I hope you will enjoy!
Please stay tuned for more... |

| An OpenWire overhaul |
The OpenWire core has gone in a major overhaul in the last 2 weeks. The original code was written years ago and has gone trough incremental changes since then. It finally become apparent that the implementation needs to be improved in order the library to continue to succeed. As result of the overhaul the loading time of large projects has decreased 10 fold :-) The code is also more readable and expandable than it was before. The new version also allow specifying the order in which the Sink pins will receive the data. We are also considering other changes in the coming days. The new version seems very stable, but we will continue stress testing in the next few days before we release a new Beta .
Stay tuned for more updates! |

| More on the Wiki Doc |
| The Wiki Doc integration tool slowly takes shape. The basic tool is ready as prototype and is able to upload changes from our help and to detect collisions with the Wiki changes. The next step is to allow collision resolution. Hopefully the Wiki site will be opened for editing soon :-) |

| New functionality in the libraries |
We just added Amplitude mode decibels support in SignalLab. I am also working to get HLS Histogram support in VideoLab. This should be a nice addition ;-)
We also have added ASF Player component in VideoLab and now can support IP streams with authentication including IP Cameras. As a next step we will be exploring the VideoLAN integration.
Stay tuned form more news. |

| Moving to IPP 5.1 |
| We are finally officially moving to IPP 5.1 . It took a while to port all the object files and to make changes in the libraries. So far only 3 components are not working properly under 5.1 and we will be working to fix those in the next few days. |

| LabPacks Wiki Doc Beta is here :-) |
We are starting a pilot Beta program for Wiki LabPacks documentation.
We have exported mist of the help files to Wiki and they are available here:
http://turbomirror.com/wikidoc/index.php
This is read only version for now. We will be working to export the rest of the Help files and to get synchronization tools to keep the future changes in sync. Once this is done we will enable the site for editing.
Please send your recommendations to mitov@mitov.com |

| And the arrival of SignalLab.NET ;-) |
Finally SignalLab is also ported. I will post demo applications running on it soon. From here on it's testing and bug fixing as well as work on installers, generic filters, demos and documentations, and I just thought the tough part was over ;-) . Visit the Blog again to see snapshots of more test applications. |

| And even more LabPacks.NET |
  There has been enormous progress in the porting of the libraries. Now all VideoLab and AudioLab components are ported with the exception of the Generic Filters. The .NET generic filters obviously will have to be written from scratch in Managed code, although in C++/CLI they should allow native callbacks through the IJW technology. This means that there will be some time before they are ready, as they will also require some form of .NET video, audio and signal buffers. Never the less the progress so far is significant.
There are still 6 components from VideoLab and AudioLab that did not port without some manual changes. We will be working to improve the parser to get them to convert correctly. Obviously the next frontier is poring SignalLab - the most component rich of them all ;-) .
Stay tuned for more updates, and if you are interested in getting .NET prerelease of the libraries, please contact me at mitov@mitov.com . |

| More progress on LabPacks.NET |
Here is the latest set of converted components, and here is a running application using VideoLab, AudioLab and PlotLab in combination :-) . 
More coming soon. |

| Temporary Blog |
| Well... After some digging around for a good PHP blog, I decided for now to use Blogger until I find anything better. Hopefully the search will be over soon. I think it is better to have a bad Blog than not at all ;-) . What do you think? |

| VideoLab .NET in porgress again |
 VideoLab .NET is again under active development. The first few components are already converted tested and even have new .NET 16x16 palette bitmaps.
We hope to have some early prerelease available in the next few days. I plan to spend the rest of the week refining the "VCL in .NET" code converter and writing installation script for the library.
Here you can see a Snapshot of a C# .NET 2.0 project with the PlotLab and the few ported VideoLab components on the Toolbox.
The library has exactly the same performance under .NET as in native Win32 application. This is due to the fact that all the video processing is performed in native thread while the application runs in Managed code. This allows creating of true real time video processing applications using any .NET 2.0 tool such as C# or Visual Basic.NET.
Stay tuned for more updates.
