---------------
* Fixed the CFLAGS to use AM-CFLAGS
Sat May 19 2007
---------------
* Updated config.guess and config.sub with latest savannah version.
* Added missing include in app/CorePlayer so it will compile with never gcc
and non gcc compilers. Thanks to Debian for this fix.
* Applied Debian patch from Viktor Radnai and Paul Brossier. Add basic
keyboard navigation (skip, pause, etc.), loop mode (looping inside a
selection), pressing play button or key during playback return to the
beginning of the song, speed changes one musical semitone a time using
the keyboard (handy for changing the key the song is played back in).
* Added keyboard shortcuts for speed +/- 1 comma (useful to tune the player
when playing some musical instrument at the same time).
* Updated the man page with those keyboard bindings.
Tue Apr 24 2007
---------------
* Added Player fredesktop sub-category in alsaplayer.desktop.
* Fixed the make system so at it will install alsaplayer.desktop.
* Fixed a bug in the make system (docs/Makefile.am was looking
for a wrong file with the uninstall process).
Wed Apr 6 2007
--------------
* Added support for flac-1.1.3 and flac-1.1.4 in flac input plugin.
Thanks to Jens Maurer for providing the patch.
Modified the patch so at alsaplayer still will work well with older
flac versions.
Thu Mar 22 2007
---------------

--------------
* A desktop file
Thu Feb 1 2007
--------------
* Fixed Makefile to work with gtk gtk2 configure options.
* Various importants security fixes commited by Debian for its distribution
and for the alsaplayer. They include fixes in the http reader, the alsa
output plugin, the ccda engine, for reading flac metada tags, for playing
correctly mono audiofiles, fix in the text interface and the gtk interface,
in the jack output plugin, in the main interface, and in the cdda engine.
Those patches solve the vulnerabilities found by Luigy Auriemma (see
http://secunia.com/advisories/21422/)
* A new man page (Thanks to Debian).

----------------------------
* New: Initial CDDB parsing for CDDA plugin (Anders)
* New: xosd interface ("-i xosd")
* New: lightweight ap-control program (see examples directory) to control
alsaplayer operation
* New API functions for randomizing and saving the current playlist

Sun Dec 1 17:11:03 CET 2002
----------------------------
* New --background parameter to put alsaplayer in the background at startup
* Accept m3u (playlist) files on the command line
* JACK output plugin fixes; use jack's samplerate, properly deactive before
disconnecting from jack.
* CDDA player now adds all tracks to the playlist, instead of playing the
audio CD as one huge CD track. Idea from Patrick Shirkey.
* Fix small reentrancy problem in CDDA plugin
* Remove threading from Playlist::Insert(), it was causing too much trouble.
* Bump up input_plugin version, change open() param for const char *path.
Wed Sep 18 11:52:43 CEST 2002
-----------------------------
* Code cleanups
* JACK related updates
* commandline buffer overflow fixes.
* libcurl dependancy remove, rewritten http/ftp reader.
* New sndfile input plugin, not ready for production use, and does not use
the reader API for now.
* extended API; complete playlists may be loaded now
* removed --enable-tophack. It just hid internal problems from the developers.
Mon Jun 24 18:34:04 CEST 2002
-----------------------------
* MAD plugin converted to new reader plugin API. This also means we don't use
mmap() any longer. Now also handles files with large ID3 tags better.
* New reader plugin system by Evgeny. This brings in URI support i.e.
you can now play directly from ftp and http sources (needs libcurl for now)
* --enable-tophack switch to configure. This enables some code that fools
(simple) CPU measuring tools like top into thinking AlsaPlayer is infinitely
fast i.e. top will show that we use 0% CPU even with lots of scopes open and
mp3's decoding! Whenever someone complains about AlsaPlayer CPU usage,
just enable this and the problem will magically disappear *grin*
* Keyboard shortcuts for playlist: Insert, Delete, Return, Left, Right keys.
* List available interfaces and output plugins in help screen.
* New callback API for CorePlayer so interfaces get notified when
something happens.
* New ap_add_and_play(), ap_get|set_volume|pan() calls for libalsaplayer
* New info calls: ap_get_genre(), int ap_get_year(),
ap_get_track_number() and ap_get_comment().
* Modify layout of playlist window buttons slightly
Thu May 16 00:08:08 CEST 2002
-----------------------------
* JACK plugin is now a *real* plugin. Minor changes to the output
plugin API to accommodate this.
* Changes for latest JACK, at least 0.28.2 required now.
* Add genre and album parsing in MAD plugin (Evgeny)
* NEW FLAC input plugin by Drew Hess, FLAC details at http://flac.sf.net/
* Complete reimplentation of socket control API (libalsaplayer)
This breaks all old libalsaplayer apps, fortunately there aren't that many
right now. The new API is much more flexible. It is partly based on ideas
from BeOS' (RIP) BMessage.
* Parse XING headers so VBR mp3's get the correct time (finally! :)
* Load input plugins only once
* Check interface plugin version
* Include prefs_free() call, should have been in the previous version
* Force control socket to be read/write for the owner only
* Fix crashing bug when old visual scopes were present.
* Stop the mikmod plugin from crashing. This plugin was not
reentrant, and it still isn't, not until libmikmod can handle multiple
files simultaneously :(
* Fix nasty NFS gotcha bug when attempting to mmap() files we don't have
read permission for (bus error)
Tue Apr 30 13:43:07 CEST 2002
-----------------------------
* Update included MAD files to 0.14b2.
* Add -I interface for interfaces that want scripts (e.g. python interface)
* Removed mpg123 based plugin from tarball. It will probably make a comeback
as a (sample) standalone input plugin
* Rewrote command line parsing, is much more flexible now.
* libalsaplayer: Change ap_session_running() return values to 1 for
"running" and 0 for "not running"
* Round the total time calculation of mp3's upwards
* Implement some more libalsaplayer commands (AP_GET_INT_SONG_LENGTH_SECOND)
* Implement C interface for playlist interface subscription. It still uses some
STL based datatypes for some parameters so the conversion is not total, just
enough to not need pure virtual member functions.
* Made the song scanning function more efficient.
* Fix nasty bug with CDDA menu entry.
* No playlist interface locking was done when playlist entries were removed.
Mon Apr 8 14:41:39 CEST 2002
-----------------------------
* Song artist - title - time displaying in the playlist.
* Allow multiple selections in playlist for easier deletes.
* Found the real source of all the subtle deadlocks. We weren't acquiring
locks in the same order all the time, a thinko.
* Replace foreground color change with icon for active entry in playlist
Mon Apr 1 03:06:08 CEST 2002
-----------------------------
* Unpause when going to Next/Prev song
* Smooth speed transition, configurable with "gtk_interface.smooth_transition"
in ~/.alsaplayer/config
* Renamed cleanup to shutdown in input_plugin, bumped up version number
* Bump up input plugin version number
* Found another subtle playlist locking bug
* Fixed huuge stack leak!
* ID3 tag support in mad plugin, using libid3tag!
* gtk+ playlist marks active entry
* Renamed mad input plugin to mad_in
* Added check for libmad, and use it if present instead of our own copy
* Renamed 'include' -> 'alsaplayer'
Tue Mar 19 00:08:04 CET 2002
----------------------------
* Scopes will now remember their state
* Added a section parameter to the prefs system
* Changed behaviour of PLAY button in gtk interface
* Fix MAD playback on big-endian machines.
* Doubled the set_data and set_fft rate for smoother scope output
* Changed fft data output slightly
* New Blurscope and OpenGL Spectrum analyzer scopes, ported over from xmms
* Retired fftscope and logfftscope scope plugins. They were just (bad) versions
of logbarscope
* Fix crashing bug when loading old scopes
* Removed scope_open() call since it was never used. Also renamed
scope_close() to scope_shutdown() to better reflect its intended function.
Tue Mar 12 18:54:48 CET 2002
----------------------------
* Fix bugs in external.cpp (libalsaplayer)
* Remove global session limit
* Add status field to stream_info in input plugin
* Fix build problem for MAD plugin on non-x86 platforms
* Remove ap_connect_session from public interface
* Fixed GTK playlist insert bug
* Fixed a bug in the AP_DO_PLAY remote command
Fri Mar 8 21:28:05 CET 2002
----------------------------
* Modified scope plugin interface, optional set_fft() call to scope. There is
a global FFT calculation routine fso scopes can feed off this instead.
Doing internal FFT is of course still possible, see synaescope.
* Fix CDDA (CD) plugin to recognize "Track XX.cdda" files again
* Make our jack output ports terminal.
* alsaplayer will now remember the paths of the play, add, load and save
dialogs whenever you sucessfully complete one of these actions (all paths
default to / initially)
* Removed Qt plugin since it was causing build problems for many folks.
Will make it back, but as a separate plugin.
Tue Feb 26 20:56:34 CET 2002
----------------------------
* More improvements to libalsaplayer. pkg-config support
* alsaplayer headers are also installed by default. First version that
is really ready for external plugin development.
* Preferences system, finally! The code is there, now we need to use it
pervasively. The prefs system is also available to plugins of course.
* More JACK improvements, we try to reconnect if we timeout.
* configure flag --with-jack now works
* The logfftscope does a fast to slow falldown, very subtle change.
* The MAD plugin is now much smarter at detecting the correct start of
MP3 files.
* Placed the pause button inbetween the -100 and +100 speed buttons. Makes
more sense since pause is speed 0.
* Fix NAS detection and nas_set_buffer() function.
* Some more cleanups to the code.
Sat Feb 16 12:59:23 CET 2002
----------------------------
* libalsaplayer becomes reality. Using this lib external programs are able
to control an alsaplayer process (set speed, seek, etc)
* Fix cdda build process
* You can now select to which JACK ports alsaplayer (jackplayer) should
connect to.
* When using JACK exit cleanly if we timeout.
* Code freeze turned out to be coding session :)
Fri Feb 8 02:25:49 CET 2002
----------------------------
* More jack related changes, sync up with latest CVS
* Renamed libvorbis.so input plugin to libvorbis_in.so to prevent collision
with the real libvorbis.so
* Bumped up plugin version to 7 to stop old libvorbis from loading. Clean
manually...
* Code freeze for the next week or so since I want to document all the
various plugin API's
Mon Nov 26 22:57:36 CET 2001
----------------------------
* Modified AlsaNode to output through JACK (jackit.sf.net). After successfull
compile just start alsaplayer with -o jack, or make a symbolic link from
"jackplayer" to the alsaplayer binary. For more information on JACK visit
the website at http://jackit.sf.net
* Added -x option to crossfade between songs. Note that fading is not done
yet and that the cross time is not configurable. This feature is still in
the "proof of concept" stage.
* The scopes in the gtk interface plugin are now fed a fixed block of audio
data instead of a single fragment. This greatly increases the quality of
the scope display and the scopes will now work even if you have a fragment
size of less than 1024 bytes. They also work fine when jack output is used.
Thu Nov 1 14:53:23 CET 2001
----------------------------
* Fix MAD input plugin to play MONO files correctly
* Convert Monoscope to use indexed images
* Changed interface_plugin API. interface_start() no longer has a
CorePlayer parameter, instead the CorePlayer object is now part of
the Playlist objects.
* Converted the input plugins to compile as C++. This will allow greaters
flexibility as to what can be done inside input plugins.
* Updated Qt interface plugin (rikkus)
* Add a dirty fix for the convolve_match routine called in Monoscope. Further
investigation is still neded.
* Renamed the cli (command line interface) to text
* Various other tiny bug fixes
Sun Oct 14 23:10:55 CEST 2001
-----------------------------
* Made alsa output plugin more flexible when setting sampling rate. This
should fix startup failures on some audio cards
* MAD plugin inclusion.
* Add --enable-prefer-mad configure switch to load the MAD plugin
over de mpg123 plugin for MP3. The MAD plugin doesn't do song info
display yet so.
* Lots of bug fixes
Sat Sep 8 23:38:02 CEST 2001
-----------------------------
* Fixed another nasty threading bug. The scope windows never really
joined since the wrong thread id value was passed
* Modified the cli interface output slightly, better looking
* Added a new menu pixmap button. This is less confusing.
* Modified the scope window to be less confusing also.
* Many small cleanups to the code to make some compilers complain less.
* A new Qt interface plugin was added, courtesy Rik Hemsley. This plugin
still needs work, lots of functionality is still missing, but it will
improve.
* Unload scope plugins at gtk interface exit.
* Disabled convolve in Monoscope. The convolve function has a bug that
overwrites some parts of memory, but it's subtle enough to not crash
during runtime. It will be back once we figure out the exact nature of
the bug.
* Another bunch of autoconf fixes and cleanups.
Tue Aug 28 11:16:15 CEST 2001
-----------------------------
* Interface plugins are reality! Woohoo :)
* New gtk+ interface plugin (spaghetti code)
* Crude command line interface plugin
* Moved load_input_plugins inside the CorePlayer class, where it belongs
* Cleaned up Playlist class
* Removed many of the global variables
* Modified CorePlayer class to do stream mixing. Multiple instances of
CorePlayer are now possible in combination with reentrant plugins allow
for simultaneous playback of multiple streams (with internal mixing).
Wed Aug 22 11:17:20 CEST 2001
-----------------------------
* Fixed a nasty threading bug. The Playlist interface was updated
without proper GDK locking. This caused an Xlib async when you had
lots of things going on.
* Fixed a crashing bug in GTK code. This bug was only reliably
triggerable with Ximian's GTK package. If you've been getting
GDK BadDrawable errors at startup, here is the fix!
* Fixed OGG VORBIS mono playback. non 44KHZ stream might still have
problems. Please report.
* Lots of fixes in the configure script.
* New --disable-mikmod configure option to disable mikmod plugin building
* Added a close button to the playlist window
Mon Aug 20 17:32:13 CEST 2001
-----------------------------
* NEW!! OGG VORBIS input plugin. Full speed control too!
* Major restructuring of the configure script. Many packages were
simply misdetected (nas, esd, audiofile)
* Fixes for GCC 3.0. Everything should build with g++ 3.0 now
Mon Aug 13 18:33:33 CEST 2001
-----------------------------
* Updated for latest ALSA CVS (0.9beta6)
* New configure option --disable-gtk, to build without GUI code
(defaults to --enable-gtk)
* Minor bug fixes
Mon Dec 11 02:31:34 CET 2000
----------------------------
* Works with latest CVS 0.6.0 version (as of Dec 7).
WILL NOT WORK WITH 0.5.x FOR NOW!
* Removed -c/--card, introduced -d/--device to reflect the flexibilty of the
new snd_pcm_open() call. Default value is "hw:0,0" for first device on first
card (same as before)
* Fixed MONO mp3 playback bug, should fix the "Frame too large" errors
* Next release should have completely decoupled interface/gui
* Fixed include problem in app/SampleBuffer.cpp
Fri Apr 14 20:53:57 CEST 2000
-----------------------------
* Woah, has it been that long?!
* New NAS (Network Audio System) output plugin by Erik Inge Bols
* Esound output plugin should be included once again
* Mini bug fixes
Mon Nov 8 19:51:11 CET 1999
----------------------------
* Fixed MONO mp3 bug, finally, for real!
* More GUI separation code from Richard
* Playlist code reworked almost completely (Richard)
* Minor cleanups to the various scopes
* Monoscope fixed, smooth again
Sun Oct 10 00:46:03 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* Added new alsa2 output plugin which adds suppor for the PCM v2 tree
in the ALSA CVS repository
Mon Oct 4 14:13:57 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* Playlist fixes. Handles m3u files correctly. Saving a playlist will
automatically append .m3u to it, if it's not there already.
* Audiofile plugin is not build by default, it is only useful for WAV files
right now and the dedicated WAV plugin does a better job anyway.
* WAV plugin fixes, plays many more WAV variants. It does need a complete
overhaul though. Soon
* Eject button is in place. Functionality should be about right
* Multiple file select! Yes, you can now add multiple files to the playlist in
one go
* Fixes to the configure.in process. Should work very well on SGI/Irix now
* Fixed MP2 playback, whoops, forgot to add support after changing the input
plugins to be pure C.
* All input plugins are now pure C coded. This makes portability much simpler
and also makes writing a plugin much easier. Support for shared memory areas
will be looked at in the near future. This might be useful for multiple
instances of a plugin.
* The input plugin interface was expanded a bit. see input_plugin.h for
details
* Reorganized the source code layout. input, output and scopes directory are
now directly under the root tree instead of in app
relevant.
* Offtopic: new mailing lists, thanks to Richard Boulton. And while we're
off-topic, "The Matrix" DVD works flawlessly here, whoopee :)
Wed Sep 29 20:26:03 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* Will take songs from the command line vim /usr/s
Sat Sep 25 11:47:16 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* New NULL output plugin that simulates a soundcard. This allows you to
experiment with the player even if you don't have auidio hardware.
* The NULL plugin allowed me to debug all the scopes on Sparc hardware
remotely. Fixed a longstanding bug in Spacescope and Stereoscope!
* Cleaned up some gtk calls. It's getting clearer every day
* Fixed a silly bug in AlsaDAC that prevented output plugin autoselection
* Added 2 tiny icons to the interface that identify the balance and volume
controls
Wed Sep 8 15:38:00 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* Fixed some bugs, cleaned up some code
* Reintroduced the WAV plugin. You no longer need audiofile to play WAVs
* Made the CDDA plugin compile only on Linux platforms
* Removed the hard coded plugin names. Everything is now loaded dynamically
Tue Aug 17 09:07:51 SRT 1999
----------------------------
* Fixes to the source tree so it compiles for gcc 2.95. Thanks to everyone
who sent in patches :)
* NEW Synaescope! This is a port of Synaesthesia to the AlsaPlayer scope
plugin architecture. Thanks Richard, it rocks!
* Stereoscope returns, lets see if its more stable now.
* Other cleanups to the code
Sat Aug 14 18:37:07 SRT 1999
----------------------------
* Fixed levelmeter and spacescope set_data functions. It should fix the
problem on SGI and Sparc boxes
* Added correct casting in several places to keep gcc 2.95+ happy
Wed Aug 11 09:54:43 SRT 1999
----------------------------
* Pause button now toggles between pause and play
* UI changes, for the better I hope. I hacked in an Eject button but removed
it again (the code is still there). Somehow I still think an "Eject" button
is not right. File selection will improve soon so that should make it
obsolete anyway.
* Increased pitch range to 233%
* Scope plugins are now loaded dynamically! Except for Monoscope and FFtscope
which keep the fft and convolve routines linked in until that prob is
resolved.
* As a result of the dynamic scope plugins the stripped main binary is only
about 150K now!
Tue Jul 20 14:44:41 SRT 1999
----------------------------
* Minor changes to the MikMod plugin
Mon Jul 19 15:01:31 SRT 1999
----------------------------
* Major changes in thread synchronization, using pthread_join()
* Fixes for MikMod crashes
* New experimental layout of main GUI
* Updated audiofile library plugin to v0.2.1
Tue Jul 13 17:28:26 SRT 1999
----------------------------
* Bumped the default SCOPE nice level to 15 (again). This makes a HUGE
difference for slower machines. Performance should be much better now.
Scopes should not suck up CPU cycles that are badly needed by the decoder
and soundcard feader threads!!
* Modifications to the audiofile library plugin, should work much better now,
but we're not there yet
* Added yet antoher incarnation of the FFTscope, this one is called the
logFFTscope with a logarithmic X-axis (Petr Janecek)
* Disabled the default reverb level in the MikMod plugin. This should
dramatically decrease the CPU usage and actually improves the sound output.
* Added genuine audiofile library detection for SGI boxes (Michael Pruett)
* Fixed some crashing MikMod plugin bugs. Started looking at potential race
conditions in the code. We should be save for now.
* Removed the 50ms delay time before feeding the next song to the soundcard.
This might have a negative effect on slow boxes (stuttering output at the
start of the first song). Please report problems.
Thu Jul 8 12:35:35 SRT 1999
----------------------------
* Minor changes to the MikMod plugin. Requires libmikmod 3.1.7 now.
* Modified time indicator to display "No time data" when there's none
available (the plugin hasn't implemented it yet, etc..)
Tue Jul 6 03:07:06 SRT 1999
----------------------------
* New MikMod plugin from Paul Fisher. Thanks! AlsaPlayer can now do MODS,
weehaa!!
* Removed aplay plugin for now. It is cuasing a bit of trouble for other
plugin coders and the code is really hackish anyway.
* Also disabled the sterescope. It has been the source of crashing bugs on
Sparc and selected x86/linux boxes. Have to figure out how/where.
* Added audiofile plugin from Michael Preutt. Thanks!
It still needs work though. This will perhaps replace the aplay
entirely since audiofile supports many more formats.
* Preparing code for the CVS tree
* Added gtk_set_locale() call
Thu Jul 1 11:21:30 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* Bug fixes to the gtk+ code, delete_events were mishandled and that caused
many unexplained segfaults when closing scope windows.
* Improved monoscope and fft code
* Removed 'active' icon in Scopes Window, it didn't work very well and I got
too many 'bug' reports on it not working ;-]
* New SGI audio library output plugin by Michael Pruett. He also discovered
the gtk+ bugs. Thanks!
MAJOR CHANGE:
I switched to the new mpg123 0.59r code. This needs lots of testing. It seems
to work ok on my x86 box. The nice thing is that I finally understand most of
the mpg123 code that's getting called from the glue code. This also brings
support for shoutcast/icecast a little closer (it's not here yet!!). There
are some internal changes needed to support 'streaming' media. Support for
3DNOW ccelleration is now also a possibility. Now, who wants to make libmpg123
reentrant? :)
Sun Jun 27 20:15:26 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* fft lib thread-safe fixes from Richard Boulton
* Modified Monoscope by Ralph Loader! Cool stuff
* New FFTscope II!, modified FFTscope with few bars and fall-off
* Minor changes in the engine
Fri Jun 25 17:59:09 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* Fixed some configure.in bugs
* NEW! UltraSparc native output addon!!!
Thu Jun 24 13:12:06 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* New FFTscope implementation by Richard Boulton! Many thanks!
* Fixed spacescope hanging in 8-bit mode, thanks Fice :)
* Replaced redundant code in scopes with MACRO
Thu Jun 24 00:23:31 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* Output plugins are now compiled using plain C. C++ compilation was not
needed and automake was screwing up with conditional compiles
* Major configure work. The configure process should now build all
configurable output modules (ALSA, OSS and ESD).
* New -o,--ouput switch to select the output method to use
Mon Jun 21 14:40:08 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* Important performance bug fixed. An extra memset in the (tight) soundcard
loop was not needed at all. This should really help especially for low
latency playback!
* Put the indicator callback update in a thread. I don't trust the gtk+
timeout system. I keep wondering which commercial company will use gtk+
for their apps?!
* Fixed ALSA scope synchro bug
Sat Jun 19 22:17:13 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* Yes! Input and output plugins are now loaded dynamically! This means you
will have to do a 'make install' to copy the files to the right location.
Future versions will allow for custom plugin paths and more flexibility.
* Changed the font of the main window
* Added another function the output_plugin structure:
get_latency() * returns the latency introduced by the hardware
* The scopes should be synced with music using esound (0.2.12) now
* Bug fixes, and bug additions no doubt
* Selecting something in the "Play File" dialog closes the dialog
Fri Jun 18 00:06:29 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* Weeh! stupid bug in Playlist.cpp. The playlist loader couldn't handle paths
with spaces in them. Fixed.
* Some instability for mp3 playback under Solaris. Needs more investigation.
Fixed up some code, but that's not the main prob.
Wed Jun 16 15:44:19 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* Delete dac object at program exit
* Added functionality to load/save buttons in playlist window
* Internal changes/cleanups
* Added 2 new functions to input_plugin struct:
nr_tracks() * return number of tracks in stream
track_seek() * seek to a track
* Many changes in the various input plugins, all except the mpg123 plugin
should be ready for multi open. the mpg123 plugin needs a lot of work
since the decoder itself is not reentrant. I hear xaudio is, and perhaps
the skysound also. I'll be working on plugin docs sometime this summer.
* Upped ringbuffer fragment count from 20 to 44. This uses more memory but
buffers a lot more data in RAM for playback (see app/CorePlayer.h)
* plugin->close(obj) is now called only once, as it should
* RESYNC_FRAMES is now 3 in mpg123 plugin, should make reverse playback
a wee bit faster :)
* squashed some more bugs
* ID3 tag info is displayed in the main window (when present)
Mon Jun 7 10:30:30 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
* Optimized display info output. Fields are only redrawn if their text has
changed. The update frequency has als been bought down from 10HZ to 5HZ
* Added check for snd_pcm_t / void handles so it compiles with older versions
of alsa-lib
* Disabled the usleep() hack in ALSAOutput.cpp, produces crackles. I'm almost
100% sure this is an ALSA bug.
Sun Jun 6 11:16:57 MEST 1999
-----------------------------
Some small bug fixes. First public f.n. release
Tue May 11 09:35:23 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
Woah, what is it with all these gaping holes in the Changelog file?
Frankly I'm still a horrible documenter.
Bug fixes:
* Last (partial) ringbuffer partition is also played. It was being skipped
earlier since it was marked empty. pcm_worker() does the right thing now
* Fixed a bug where the player would sometimes do a CPU hogging loop
on MP3 streams with garbage at the start. There was already some code
in mpg123 to strip this crap out but the read_frame_init() function was
not called at the start of each new stream. Happens when you don't bother
checking what use a function is :)
* Fixed some potential divide by zero errors.
* Added some more 'check pointer for NULL before using it' code
* Fixed a bug in the audio data buffering code. Still wondering when
that cast from void* to int* made it in there (I hear that's bad practice)
* Cleaned up the CorePlayer class. Not sure if I need to abstract it more
* Cleaned up some stale code in the scopes. Plugification still needs to
be done for scopes btw
* Cast sum to (short) in app/mpg123/decode_4to1.c WRITE_SAMPLE(...)
* Cast sum to (short) in app/mpg123/decode_2to1.c WRITE_SAMPLE(...)
* Cast sum to (short) in app/mpg123/decode_ntom.c WRITE_SAMPLE(...)
* More configure.in hacking. The player should compile on Solaris/UltraSparc
* Added an --enable-debug switch for -DDEBUG and -g
* Check for esd only if we compile for esd output
New:
* CD button. When pressed should start playing your AUDIO CD in /dev/cdrom
* Experimental 8-bit WAV support, thanks to Tkil for the algorithm
* Parameters at startup!
Available options:
-h,--help print this help message
-f,--fragsize # fragment size in bytes [default=4096]
-g,--fragcount # fragment count [default=8]
-c,--card # use card number [default=0]
-n,--nogui start in command line mode
-q,--quiet quiet operation. no output
-v,--version print version of this program
* NOGUI mode. Yes, you can now use the player in your scripts. Controls are
still missing though (I'm trying to learn Python. *hint hint*)
* Doesn't do subsecond display by default.
Thu Apr 15 15:02:34 CEST 1999
-----------------------------
Keeping track of what I'm hacking is not something I do often. But here goes:
Many (many!) changes to the internal structures of the player. The plugin
system should be very solid now. It only took me about 1 hour to write a CDDA
plugin, and most of it was cutting and pasting stuff and getting to know the
ioctl CD interface.
New:
* CDDA plugin for true CD Digital Audio playback! You get speed (pitch)
control for free too!
Thu Mar 4 11:57:12 CET 1999
----------------------------
Fixes:
* Cleanup of automake builds. Distrubtions can now be build by simply doing
a 'make dist' in the source tree, cool! Automatically fixed the .deps/
inclusion prob!
* Started serious thinking about the marshaller thread. This is the main
reason there is no function playlist yet. Since the program is threaded
we can't use simple function calls in some places, messaging is needed.
MAJOR CHANGE:
I switched from the old (and buggy) amp mpeg decoding engine to mpg123. This
makes the whole player about 10x more stable since mpg123 has very robust
error correction (compared to amp, which had none :). The speed is about the
same with full optimization. It also looks like the floating point exceptions
that were occuring were happening inside the amp engine, woohoo! And of course
mpg123 has a much clearer license than amp... *Psyched*
Mon Mar 1 07:39:02 CET 1999
----------------------------
Fixes:
* Cleanups everywhere, restructuring of code
* I finally sat down and figured out how autoconf works. So from now
on compiling should be as easy as running configure and make (yeah right)
* packed up a pr3 release, still only really interesting to C coders or
real enthousiasts
Thu Feb 18 00:19:23 CET 1999
----------------------------
Fixes:
* Started logging changes into a Changelog
* Massive cleanups everywhere, most code gets throught the -Wall test
The GLADE code is the only part that produces minor warnings. Standard
flag in the Makefile now
* Finally (finally!) got the buffering code right (crossing fingers). It
turns out there was way too much (and incorrect) locking done on various
datastructures. The only mutex that survived was the counter_mutex. The
producer functions blocks on this mutex as soon as there are enough
buffers ready for the consumer. The consumers unblocks the producer as
soon as its starts consuming the next block.
* Fixed a nasty bug where consumer could start reading a buffer that was
being written to by the producer! The solution was very simple. Since
we don't really care about a missed buffer read that much we just return
an empty PCM block if there are currently no buffers available. The reason
why we don't care is because this case is very rare in normal day use.
This is a simple and elegant solution. This should also fix the race
condition (a real life one!) which occured sometimes (the producer would
start producing at full CPU speed never blocking untill it ran out of
st(r)eam.
* Made the playlist do something. gtk_object_set_data() rocks!
* Tidying up for PR3 release
* Threaded file/directory loading in playlist (directory recursion is done
in a separate thread)
* Minor GUI updates
* Scope threads now die when closing their window
??? Jan 24 00:00:00 CET 1999
----------------------------
* Somewhat usable now
* Fixed loads of race conditions/threading issues
* Implemented all scopes for 8-, 16- and 32-bit X displays
* Added more threading (each scope runs in its own thread)
* Functional FX and SCOPES button
* Software volume and balance controls (leaves the hardware mixer alone)
* Minor GUI redesign (glade is ok)
* Double buffered counters
* Further design on Playlist layout (it's *NOT* working yet)
* Minor code cleanups, still very hackish/ugly
Earlier additions
-----------------
* The base code was started on in August 1998, with on and off coding.
Various redesigns and new ideas were implemnted/scrapped/reimplemented
* A semi working player core appeared at the end of 1998.
* Coding on my BeOS player BeMP has virtually stopped, there are no more
challenges to it. I haven't even bothered porting it to R4 (maybe to R4.5)
since BeOS boots are few and far apart. UPDATE: Well, after 3 more years
of lingering Be, Inc. finally sold its assets to Palm in 2001.
Thanks for the experience Be!
