(First time poster) Hello all.
I think I've misunderstood something related to Audio Server Plugins, hopefully someone with more experience can comment. (OSX 10.9 or 10.10). I'm writing a userspace driver that exposes multiple independently operated stereo audio streams (LPCM 44.1). The requirement is that each audio stream is selectable as a valid audio input via a typical AVFoundation application, run independently and deliver its own PCM samples without any impact on other 'streams' within the device. In other words, a device that can have none-or-more of its streams running, while other streams within the same device are idle. I thought CoreAudio allowed that, by exposing N x streams. I think I'm wrong. Evidence tells me that the APIs (Eg. StartIO) have no concept of a single stream running on its own. The entire Device is started and expected to deliver samples on each stream, in fact I see this during testing. Calls to DoIOOperation for all exposed streams within the same Device are received. If my initial design assumptions are incorrect, what's the preferred way to achieve my goal? Perhaps create multiple .driver binaries, each with their own UUID and have coreaudiod load each like its own independent driver? Attempts to register multiple plugin uuids in the .driver plist array, to instruct coreaudiod to register multiple devices from a single .driver, result in only the first device being created. Pity. I'd welcome feedback on this. Thanks, - Steve -- Steven Toth - Kernel Labs http://www.kernellabs.com _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
