Bug#705439: libao4: Please consider defaulting to default alsa device for 2 channels

2014-06-24 Thread Monty Montgomery
Some background: The primary use of libao here is at Xiph is in various apps that have to know what the hardware is doing, eg, Squishyball. The problem with plug devices like 'default' is that you could request 192kHz 24 bit and ALSA will say 'sure!' and resample it down to 32kHz 8 bit because,

Bug#553500: blank window workaround patch works only by accident

Hi folks, I have a new 'release' of gPlanarity with a few new translations, and a correct fix to the blank window bug. See: http://web.mit.edu/~xiphmont/Public/gPlanarity.html The fix for this bug suggested in this bug report (553500) is not correct and works by accident, meaning it could also

Yes, I know my patch was not ideal. Thanks for fixing this bug properly, I'll prepare a new package for Debian soon. Thank you! I didn't mean to sound harsh, just to the point :-) (If anything I was annoyed at how the GDK documentation was silently retconned after the background behavior in

Morita, I've committed a test fix for the VIA end-of-playback click problem to xiph.org's libao SVN in revision 16861. This is using a strategy different than the one you suggested and I'm interested to see if it works: svn co http://svn.xiph.org/trunk/ao -r 16861 It will build and install in

2010-01-28 Thread Monty Montgomery
Your analysis is not quite correct; ALSA should absolutely not be playing more samples than it receives regardless of period/hardware buffer alignment. The only way this could happen is if the pipeline is set to 'never underrun' mode and the playback cursor passes the end of playback before a
