Also prevent segmentation fault cases related to low-res or switching from low-res to hi-res
And fix memory leak related to loading and scaling of the thumbnail image
A lot of the updated logic is borrowed from the saveload-dialog.cpp for the simple list view (with the thumbnail to the right of the list).
Previously the file format had all chunks, offsets and values stored in
little-endian format. The one exception was screenshots, which used the
existing THMB code in graphics/thumbnail.cpp, that is entirely
big-endian. Any tooling which attempts to parse the Event Recorder file
format must make a special exception for THMB chunks, and read the chunk
size and contents as big-endian.
In the interests of making the file format more consistant
to parse, and given that backwards compatibility is not required for
this iteration of Event Recorder, this patch changes everything to
big-endian.
Screen update boundaries are now used as sync points.
Screenshots are now processed on a screen update boundary.
This change increments the version of the Event Recorder
file format to 2; version 1 files will still play back as
before, without synchronising to screen updates.
This might also become a return to launcher, but I've somehere read the hint that
the event recorder was only meant to play back one game per session. We'll see.
the custom engine events were missing and the default event manager transforms the backend events
. Which means that the event recorder is not persisting the low level key press/release events
but the already transformed custom engine events of the keymapper
This commit introduces the following changes:
1. Graphics::loadThumbnail()
Now returns a boolean and takes a new argument skipThumbnail which
defaults to false. In case of true, loadThumbnail() reads past the
thumbnail data in the input stream instead of actually loading the
thumbnail. This simplifies savegame handling where, up until now,
many engines always read the whole savegame metadata (including
the thumbnail) and then threw away the thumbnail when not needed
(which is in almost all cases, the most common exception being
MetaEngine::querySaveMetaInfos() which is responsible for loading
savegame metadata for displaying it in the GUI launcher.
2. readSavegameHeader()
Engines which already implement such a method (name varies) now take
a new argument skipThumbnail (default: true) which is passed
through to loadThumbnail(). This means that the default case for
readSavegameHeader() is now _not_ loading the thumbnail from a
savegame and just reading past it. In those cases, e.g.
querySaveMetaInfos(), where we actually are interested in loading
the thumbnail readSavegameHeader() needs to explicitely be called
with skipThumbnail == false.
Engines whose readSavegameHeader() (name varies) already takes an
argument loadThumbnail have been adapted to have a similar
prototype and semantics.
I.e. readSaveHeader(in, loadThumbnail, header) now is
readSaveHeader(in, header, skipThumbnail).
3. Error handling
Engines which previously did not check the return value of
readSavegameHeader() (name varies) now do so ensuring that possibly
broken savegames (be it a broken thumbnail or something else) don't
make it into the GUI launcher list in the first place.
