Module Description

the base classes for audio playback and recording for the nitty gritty check the modules tabaudio_linux tabaudio_openal and, for those with crappy operating systems, tabaudio_win32

quick rewiew of these

win32
this one is in module tabaudio_win32 (yuck).

OpenAL
this (creative labs?) brainchild has been examined as open/portable alternative to OS native systems. check module tabaudio_openal

ALSA
under linux (mebbe osx later) there's this new super-snazzy audio architecture/layer. this one in module tabaudio_linux

module type

: so

license: t@b0
depends on: kernel tabpix document_dig

Module History

Version: 0.918 and earlier

2004-11-13

we have in the meantime moved to provide audio-digs and several improvents in our general audio logic:

new inner class audiodoc_filter in class i_document_audio. the audiodoc_filter class extends the tab_audiofilter class int the tabpic module and thus assists in making all plugins derived from i_document_audio to be accessed via the low level audio streaming logic now contained in the tabpix module.

September-2004

yes we-ve started dealing with sound devices and sound architecture on both linux and windows. while the billyboy system lacks from a "cumbersommest" api malady, the ALSA architecture under linux offers quite a lot (with a fairly sane API). sebtember now has seen audio playback, even on windows.
