2008/02/03: xaudio-0.6.1.tar.gz. README containing installation notes.
- Bugfix release since I screwed up latest tar-ball... fixed Makefile sillyness and hosed removal of debugging remnants in ALSA plugin
2008/01/30: xaudio-0.6.tar.gz.
Changelog:
- Simple audio compositing manager; fix bugs in virtual pcm context handling that were exposed subsequently
- Provide "clamp" operation; otherwise clients could counteract attenuation by audio compositing manager by storing excessively large sample values
- Replace rigid pcm device attribute scheme with more flexible properties; also allow properties on pcm contexts (so applications can signal to the audio manager who they are and what they want).
- ALSA plugin, most applications work out of the box now; synchronizes nicely to audio clock (in case it deviates from nominal clock rate), but still a little bit to do to keep latency at exact threshold; also, plugin should set something like NET_WM_PID to help audio manager a little bit
- Small fixes to server-side code (some excessive CPU usage bugs in convolution operators, 64-bit fixes); everything works fine now also on amd64 and mixed 32-/64-bit systems (even for shared memory)
- Improved shared memory sample buffers; buffer window base pointer can now also be placed in shared memory (for even lower latency); protocol change
- autoconf; not sure that I am thrilled of autotools, but it sure makes things like handling of dependencies and installation locations easier
