Description

Generator for test dummy video frames to simulate playback of rendered output.

As of 1/2009 the render engine and source reading functions are not ready yet. So, in order to learn how to build up the GUI/Playback interfaces, we use this dummy image generator to create visible output. First implemented by Joel within PlaybackController, then factored out into a separate dummy playback service.

Todo:

obsolete since 2010, can be removed once we have a real player in the UI

revived in 2025 for research of video output techniques; this is test code.
