At urging of those who feel pear.dev is the wrong place to propose PECL packages, I'm repeating my proposal here:
------------------------------------------------------------------- I'd like to propose two PECL extensions: 1) linux_oss http://frankenbox.alphaweb.net/test/linux_oss-0.1.tgz Description: Bindings for the Linux Open Sound System API. Functions: linux_oss_buffer() : Setup DSP buffer on /dev/dsp or similar device linux_oss_channels() : Set DSP to process number of channels (mono vs. stereo) linux_oss_rate() : Set sampling rate on DSP device linux_oss_format() : Set sample encoding 8/16 bit, signed/unsigned, big/little endian linux_oss_mixer_query() : Probe capabilities of mixer linux_oss_mixer_vol() : Get/Set volume on mixer channel linux_oss_mixer_source() : Get/Set recording source Purpose: Control sound I/O on linux systems. Yes, this is platform specific, but sound is a platform specific thing. I'll propose Windows sound system bindings later, and ultimately bindings for Solaris and BSD as I research them. Requirements: PHP >= 4.3.0, Linux w/ OSS kernel module and headers 2) oggvorbis http://frankenbox.alphaweb.net/test/oggvorbis-0.1.tgz Description: OGG/Vorbis fopen wrapper. ogg:// write - Encode PCM audio to OGG/Vorbis compressed audio. ogg:// read - Decode OGG/Vorbis compressed audio to PCM. Example Usage: .ogg player <?php dl('linux_oss.so'); dl('oggvorbis.so'); $input = fopen('ogg://mymusic.ogg', 'r'); $oggdata = stream_get_meta_data($input); /* Chained OGGs will be added as subsequent numericly indexed subarrays of wrapper_data */ $songdata = $oggdata['wrapper_data'][0]; $output = fopen('/dev/dsp', 'w'); linux_oss_buffer($output, 8192); linux_oss_channels($output, $songdata['channels']); /* AFMT_S16_LE is the default output mode of ogg:// wrapper. It can also be set to encodings listed above via a context option. */ linux_oss_format($output, AFMT_S16_LE); linux_oss_rate($output, $songdata['rate']); $mixer = fopen('/dev/mixer', 'w'); /* Master Volume L / R */ linux_oss_mixer_vol($mixer, MIXER_VOLUME, 100, 100); /* DSP Output Volume L / R */ linux_oss_mixer_vol($mixer, MIXER_PCM, 100, 100); stream_copy_to_stream($input, $output); fclose($mixer); fclose($output); fclose($intput); ?> Requirements: PHP >= 4.3.0, libogg, libvorbis (both governed by BSD style licenses) -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
