The local variable "play_audio_format" is updated every time the
player starts playing a new song. This way, we always know exactly
which audio format is current. The old code broke when a new song had
a different format: ob.audio_format is the format of the next song,
not of the current one - using this caused breakage for the software
volume control.
A decoder_flush() invocation was missing in the FLAC plugin, resulting
in casual assertion failures due to a wrong assumption about the last
chunk's audio format. It's much easier to remove that decoder_flush()
function and make the decoder thread call ob_flush().
Request the next song from the playlist (by clearing pc.next_song)
only if the player command is empty. If it is not, the player may be
clearing the song that has already been queued, leading to an
assertion failure.
Remember the seek_where argument and call decoder_command_finished()
immediately. This way, the player thread can continue working, and we
can receive more commands.
This also fixes several issues which resulted in broken frames,
leading to erroneos "elapsed" values: frames weren't parsed properly,
since the code was checking for command!=NONE.
size_t and long aren't 64 bit safe (i.e. files larger than 2 GB on a
32 bit OS). Use off_t instead, which is a 64 bit integer if compiled
with large file support.
When the decoder failed to start, the function do_play() returned,
still having pc.command==PLAY. This is because pc.command was reset
only when the decoder started up successfully. Add another
player_command_finished() call in the error handler.
Replaced the local variable "colon" (which had only temporary meaning)
with the variable "value". It is a pointer to the first byte of the
header value.
Instead of managing a set of method pointers in each input_stream
struct, move these into the new input_plugin struct. Each
input_stream has only a pointer to the plugin struct. Pointers to all
implementations are kept in the array "input_plugins".
MPD's HTTP client code has always been broken, no matter how effort
was put into fixing it. Replace it with libcurl, which is known to be
quite stable. This adds a fat library dependency, but only for people
who need streaming.
MPD shouldn't integrate sources of other libraries. Since libmp4ff is
part of libfaad, we should remove the old copy from src/mp4ff and link
with the current version from libfaad instead.
PA_SAMPLE_S16NE is the only sample format which is suported by both
MPD and pulseaudio. Unfortunately, pulse does not accept 24 bit
samples.
Instead of bailing out with an error message, we should tell the MPD
core to convert all samples to 16 bit for pulse.
This bug caused the audio output devices to stay open, although MPD
wasn't playing: quitDecode() resetted player_control.command, assuming
that the command was STOP. This way, player_task() didn't see the
CLOSE_AUDIO command, and the device was kept open.
Don't clear player_control.command in quitDecode().
