- New code is based on the dummy sound driver and file output code from SB16.
- The midiout feature supports the MIDI file format.
- The waveout feature currently only supports the VOC format.
TODO:
- Add support for a more detailed sound configuration (waveout to device,
midiout to a file.
- The waveout feature should support WAV and RAW file formats.
- Move VOC file handling from soundmod.cc to soundfile.cc.
- Finally remove file handling code from sound devices.
creates the object and returns a pointer to it. TODO: Rewrite of the sound
configuration to support a more detailed setup (e.g. waveout with alsa,
dummy wavein, midiout to a file).
creates the object and returns a pointer to it. TODO: The wavein and midiout
components should also move to separate classes. When finished, it should be
possible to configure the sound support more detailed (e.g. waveout with sdl,
midiout with alsa and the dummy driver for wavein). Creating a separate
module for the output to file(s) is also possible.
'alsa'. Cleaned up the code a little bit.
TODO #1: Implement mixer thread support in the OSX sound driver.
TODO #2: Code cleanups in the Bochs sound code.
TODO #3: Resampling support and improvements in the wave recording code.
- removed disabled code for the sndPlaySound() function.
- removed now obsolete buffer ring for wave output.
- The new mothod waveout() is driven by the mixer thread. For the best results
you need to disable the 'realtime' sychronization and to find out a usable
IPS vaöue. The mixer also polls data from the speaker beep generator and
the OPL3 FM generator.
- TODO: Code cleanup in soundwin.cc, implementation in other sound modules.
- soundlow: prepared code for 2 pcm parameter sets:
emulated: requested by sendwavepacket()
real: used for the sound output
- soundsdl: startwaveplayback() rewritten to set_pcm_data().
- soundmod: some beep init code fixes.
- OPL3: Added support to change the samplerate of the generator.
- SDL sound: convert wave packet to 16 Bit signed stereo format.
- Increased the maximum size of a single wave packet for playbck/recording.
- Beep thread now only started one per simulation.
- Added some more multithreading macros and use them in rfb, vncsrv and soundmod.
- TODO: implement mixer thread and remove beep thread.
The code currently only works with the SDL sound output module and at 44100 Hz,
with 16 bit stereo signed little endian format. FM volume control and
save/restore support are not implemented yet. The legacy code for generating
MIDI notes still works and will be removed when mixing support is implemented
in all sound modules.
