Again, this could have bad access, is unlikely, and has no bad
consequences. It's noteworthy that vlc and the ALSA PCM example both do
this first, even if they set the sample rate later.
I'm worried that not restricting the access type before restricting the
format will cause problems. While it's unlikely, it might prevent
failures in some corner cases. Also, since we by default always use
interleaved access (buggy ALSA plugins), this will have no effects at
all.
If the API doesn't list padded channel maps, but the final device
channel map is padded, and if unpadded output is not possible (unlike in
the somewhat similar dmix case), then we shouldn't apply the channel
count mismatch fallback in the beginning. Do it after channel map
negotiation instead.
Doesn't matter much; effectively this prevents just log spam in some
cases where the map is legitimately padded. Normally this is really
only needed for the dmix ALSA case. (See git blame for details.)
Until recently, the channel layout code happened to catch this, but now
an explicit check is needed. Otherwise, it'd try to pad the missing
channels with NA in the channel map fallback code.
This is intended for the case when CoreAudio returns only unknown
channel layouts, or no channel layout matches the number of channels the
CoreAudio device forces. Assume that outputting stereo or mono to the
first channels is safe, and that it's better than outputting nothing.
It's notable that XBMC/kodi falls back to a static channel layout in
this case. For some messed up reason, the layout it uses happens to
match with the channel order in ALSA's/mpv's "7.1(alsa)" layout.
Share some code between ca_init_chmap() and ca_get_active_chmap(), which
also makes it look slightly nicer. No functional changes, other than the
additional log message.
If no channel layouts were determined (which can actually happen with
some "strange" devices), the selection code was falling back to mono,
because mono is always added as a fallback. This doesn't seem quite
right.
Allow a fallback to stereo too, if no channel layout could be retrieved
at all. So we always assume that mono and stereo work, if no other
layouts are available.
(I still don't know what the CoreAudio stereo layout is supposed to do.
It could be used to swap left and right channels. It could also be used
to pad/move the channels, but I have never seen that. And it can be set
to non-stereo channels, which breaks mpv. Whatever.)
mNumberChannelDescriptions being 0 is pretty much an error, but if it
can happen, then the code checking the chmap below will trigger UB, as
chmap is not initialized at all.
Also, simplify the code a little: we never change the number of
channels, so this is just fine.
Coreaudio gives us a channel map with all entries set to
kAudioChannelLabel_Unknown. This is translated to a mpv channel map with
all channels set to NA, which has special meaning: it's an "unknown"
channel map, which acts as wildcard and can be converted from/to any
channel layout. Not really what we want.
I've got this with USB audio, playing stereo. The multichannel layout
consisted of 2 unknown channels, while the stereo channel map was
stereo (as expected).
Note that channel maps with _some_ NA entries are not affected by this,
and must still work.
If the device returns an unexpected number of channels instead of the
requested count on init, don't immediately error out. Instead, look if
there's a channel map with the given number of channels.
If there isn't, still error out, because we don't want to guess the
channel layout.
Reportedly fixes operation with "USB connected Parasound ZDAC v.2". (OSX
and USB audio sure is not nice at all.)
This might be perceived as hang by some users, so it's quite possible
that this will have to be adjusted again somehow.
Fixes#2409.
The manpage entry explains this.
(Maybe this option could be always enabled and removed. I don't quite
remember what valid use-cases there are for just disabling audio
entirely, other than that this is also needed for audio decoder init
failure.)
Make the code a bit more uniform. Always build a "dummy" audio output
list before probing, which means that opening preferred devices and
pure auto-probing is done with the same code. We can drop the second
ao_init() call.
This also makes the next commit easier, which wants to selectively
fallback to ao_null. This could have been implemented by passing a
different requested audio output list (instead of reading it from
MPOptions), but I think it's better if this rather special feature
is handled internally in the AO code. This also makes sure the AO
code can handle its own options (such as the audio output list) in
a self-contained way.
This can happen with USB audio. There was already code for this, but
something in mpv and ALSA changed - and now the old code is not
necessarily triggered anymore. It probably depends on the exact
situation.
This could sometimes cause crashes in hotplug events. (Apparently in
cases when CoreAudio changes its state asynchronously, or such.)
CA_GET_STR() does not set the string if there was an error, so errors
have to be strictly checked before using it.
This is just a refactor, which makes it use the previously introduced
function, and allows us to make af_format_conversion_score() private.
(We drop 2 unlikely warning messages too... who cares.)
So snd_device_name_get_hint() return values do in fact have to be freed.
Also, change listing semantics slightly: if io==NULL, skip the entry,
instead of assuming it's an output device.
Revert "win32: more wchar_t -> WCHAR replacements"
Revert "win32: replace wchar_t with WCHAR"
Doing a "partial" port of this makes no sense anymore from my
perspective. Revert the changes, as they're confusing without
context, maintenance, and progress. These changes were a bit
premature anyway, and might actually cause other issues
(locale neutrality etc. as it was pointed out).
This was essentially missing from commit 0b52ac8a.
Since L"..." string literals have the type wchar_t[], we can't use them
for UTF-16 strings. Use C11 u"..." string literals instead. These have
the type char16_t[], but we simply assume char16_t is the same
underlying type as WCHAR. In practice, they're both unsigned short.
For this reason use -std=c11 on Windows. Since Windows is a "special"
environment (we require either MinGW or Cygwin), we don't need to worry
too much about compiler compatibility.
WCHAR is more portable. While at least MinGW, Cygwin, and MSVC actually
use 16 bit wchar_t, Midipix will have 32 bit wchar_t. In that context,
using WCHAR instead is more portable.
This affects only non-MinGW parts, so not all uses of wchar_t need to
be changed. For example, terminal-win.c won't be used on Midipix at
all. (Most of io.c won't either, so the search & replace here is more
than necessary, but also not harmful.)
(Midipix is not useable yet, so this is just preparation.)
ao_coreaudio (using AudioUnit) accounted only for part of the latency -
move the code in ao_coreaudio_exclusive to utils, and use that for the
AudioUnit code.
(There's still the question why CoreAudio and AudioUnit require you to
jump through hoops this much, but apparently that's how it is.)
Until now, this was for AC3 only. For PCM, we used AudioUnit in
ao_coreaudio, and the only reason ao_coreaudio_exclusive exists
is that there is no other way to passthrough AC3.
PCM support is actually rather simple. The most complicated
issue is that modern OS X versions actually do not support
copying through the data; instead everything must go through
float. So we have to deal with virtual and physical format
being different, which causes some complications.
This possibly also doesn't support some other things correctly.
For one, if the device allows non-interleaved output only, we
will probably fail. (I couldn't test it, so I don't even know
what is required. Supporting it would probably be rather
simple, and we already do it with AudioUnit.)
Mapping of spdif formats was imperfect. Since the first format on the
list is somehow AAC, it was returned first, which is confusing, because
CoreAudio calls all spdif formats AC3. Since the spdif formats have some
rather arbitrary, reverse mapping the formats didn"t actually work
either. Fix by explicitly ignoring these when spdif is used.
Also, don't forget to set the samplerate in ca_asbd_to_mpformat(), or it
will work only in some cases.
