A version of squeezeslave compiled against alsa-lib 1.17a and portaudio snapshot from May 13, 2008 is available for testing on sourceforge. This release also supports OSS and if you have the alsa oss modules loaded you'll see as the final entry in the output devices list /dev/dsp. If you choose this device you'll be using aoss and not the native alsa devices.
This release contains changes to the command line parameter parsing and options. Run squeezeslave with -h for the current parameter options. Also the choosen output device is marked with an asterisk to the left of the device name. Please report any issues to this thread. Thanks goes to KeyzerSuze for creating the portaudio v19 patch. I've integrated that patch. Squeezeslave can now be compiled against either v18 or v19 by adding a define at compile time. For more details see the ChangeLog file in the 0.8-20 source tarball. The audio output via alsa through portaudio v19 is not as "smooth" as the older version. You might notice the occasional "drop out". KeyzerSuze had been working on this but I haven't heard of any progress as of late, so I've released this version to the community to help shake it down. The alternative is to remove the portaudio library from the linux version and add native alsa support, leaving the other versions to use the v18.1. This would be ideal for me as the new version no longer supports Solaris audio devices and Solaris SPARC on a Sun Ray is where I use squeezeslave the most. https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=105169&package_id=176494 Ralphy -- ralphy ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ralphy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3484 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=54640 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
