first email:
"in the current implementation of osgUtil::RenderStage::drawInner() method, there is some wrong assumptions made. The problem is, that whenever one does use multisampling functionality, the Blit operation (which suppose to copy the content of multisampled FBO into the usual one) doesn't perform well in some cases.
I've attached a corrected version of the RenderStage. It do just add one line, which enables the multisampled FBO as a readable just before the usual FBO is set as writable. With these corrections the Blit operation performs now correct and allows using of multisampled rendering results further."
second email:
"There was a problem when blitting the multisampled FBO with internal formats. The default internal format of color buffered multisample FBO was GL_RGBA. This has converted the color values whenever the FBO content was copied. I've added couple of lines, which do just enable the multisampled FBO internal format in respect to the attached color texture's internal format. This makes it possible to blit even float valued texture, so make HDR with multisampling possible ;)"

It's really just a cut-paste job from the existing LINE support.
The current dxf plugin architecture isn't very efficient, especially if you
are loading large point clouds (LIDAR)
eg. it makes multiple lookups of the layer name for each vertex.
I don't know if I can improve this for the general case or if I have to add a
special large point cloud dxf reader."
It\u2019s a one line change against OSG 2.8.0 (see line 196). I\u2019ve already tested the change, and confirmed it\u2019s fixing the crashes described above."
It basically removes the static init() and exit() functions,and move them inside the observer class (the one that cleans everything up when the last media is unloaded).
It also add an extra check to clean up on exit if the QuickTime env is initialized, but no media is succesfully loaded / written (it might happens with streaming resources).
I tested it under WinXP with zero, one and multiple videos.
Stephan reads in copy: could you kindly check if everything runs smooth under OSX as well? Also, have you got a chance to test it with streaming media?

LD_LIBRARY_PATH so the XUL libs would be found) I noticed that although
the gecko plugin was found it could not be loaded. But this did not
trigger any visible warning/error message (at least not without INFO
notify level). Would you mind if we change the notify level for a
dlerror() to WARNING? This will also make it more explicit for the case
when a plugin isn't actually found, which seems to come up a lot for
novice users (e.g. no freetype on win32, so no freetype plugin, etc).
Also, the current error message is misleading ("Warning: Could not FIND
plugin to ...") because the it's not always a case of not finding the
plugin. I slightly enhanced the situation of not finding a plugin versus
finding it but not being able to load it.
Here's also a few fixes to some of the examples:
- osgfont: make usage help line more in line with the actual behaviour
- osgcompositeviewer: complain when no model file was provided
- osgmovie: don't include quicktime-dependent feature on Linux
- osgocclussionquery: comment addition (as I was surprised that lines
were being drawn in a function called createRandomTriangles())"
used but never restored to the decimal notation. That made OSG print messages
like the following after some notifications:
