Versions and Releases Every time I fix a bug or add a feature, I do a new release.
This makes tracking down bugs and stuff much easier.
Keep up, I do releases for reasons. ```lua a@slow:~/threefive$ threefive version 2.4.81 a@slow:~/threefive$ ``` * __Release__ versions are __odd__. * __Unstable__ testing versions are __even__. --- ![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/caac5f33-204e-47c7-bcdb-1e2d05fdaefb)

Custom charsets for UPIDS aka upids.charset `Specify a charset for Upid data by setting threefive.upids.charset` [`issue #55`](https://github.com/futzu/scte35-threefive/issues/55) * default charset is ascii * python charsets info [Here](https://docs.python.org/3/library/codecs.html) * setting charset to None will return raw bytes. #### Example Usage: ```lua >>> from threefive import Cue,upids >>> i="/DBKAAAAAAAAAP/wBQb+YtC8/AA0AiZDVUVJAAAD6X/CAAD3W3ACEmJibG5kcHBobkQCAsGDpQIAAAAAAAEKQ1VFSRSAIyowMljRk9c=" >>> upids.charset 'ascii' >>> cue=Cue(i) >>> cue.decode() ascii True >>> cue.descriptors[0].segmentation_upid 'bblndpphnD\x02\x02���\x02\x00\x00' >>> upids.charset="utf16" >>> cue.decode() utf16 True >>> cue.descriptors[0].segmentation_upid '扢湬灤桰䑮Ȃ菁ʥ\x00' ```
Custom Private Splice Descriptors ( new! ) ### threefive now supports custom private splice descriptors, right out the box. * The first byte of the descriptor is read as an int for the Descriptor tag * The second byte is read as an int for the desciptor length * The next four bytes are read as ASCII for the Identifier * remanining bytes are returned as private data ```js from threefive import Cue, TimeSignal from threefive.descriptors import SpliceDescriptor ``` * make a Cue ```smalltalk c = Cue() ``` * add a Time Signal ```smalltalk c.command = TimeSignal() c.command.time_specified_flag=True c.command.pts_time=1234.567890 ``` * add Splice Descriptor ```smalltalk sd = SpliceDescriptor() sd.tag = 47 sd.identifier ='fufu' sd.private_data = b'threefive kicks ass' c.descriptors.append(sd) ``` * encode ```smalltalk c.encode() '/DAvAAAAAAAAAP/wBQb+Bp9rxgAZLxdmdWZ1dGhyZWVmaXZlIGtpY2tzIGFzc1m+EsU=' ``` * show ```smalltalk c.show() { "info_section": { "table_id": "0xfc", "section_syntax_indicator": false, "private": false, "sap_type": "0x03", "sap_details": "No Sap Type", "section_length": 47, "protocol_version": 0, "encrypted_packet": false, "encryption_algorithm": 0, "pts_adjustment_ticks": 0, "cw_index": "0x0", "tier": "0xfff", "splice_command_length": 5, "splice_command_type": 6, "descriptor_loop_length": 25, "crc": "0x59be12c5" }, "command": { "command_length": 5, "command_type": 6, "name": "Time Signal", "time_specified_flag": true, "pts_time": 1234.56789, "pts_time_ticks": 111111110 }, "descriptors": [ { "tag": 47, "descriptor_length": 23, "identifier": "fufu", "private_data": [ 116, 104, 114, 101, 101, 102, 105, 118, 101, 32, 107, 105, 99, 107, 115, 32, 97, 115, 115 ] } ] } ``` * the custom Splice Descriptor ```js c.descriptors[0] {'tag': 47, 'descriptor_length': 23, 'name': None, 'identifier': 'fufu', 'bites': None, 'provider_avail_id': None, 'components': None, 'private_data': b'threefive kicks ass'} ``` * Cool dictionaary comprehension to print the Splice Descriptor with only relevant values ```js {print(f'{k} = {v}') for k,v in vars(c.descriptors[0]).items() if v is not None} tag = 47 descriptor_length = 23 identifier = fufu private_data = b'threefive kicks ass' ```
