The new player_status struct replaces a bunch of playerGetX()
functions. When we add proper locking to the player_control struct,
we will only need to lock once for the "status" command.
Do all the software volume stuff inside each output thread, not in the
player thread. This allows one software mixer per output device, and
also allows the user to configure the mixer type (hardware or
software) for each audio output.
This moves the global "mixer_type" setting into the "audio_output"
section, deprecating the "mixer_enabled" flag.
The only pc_seek() caller clears the error, rendering the check
useless. Even if the previous PLAY command resulted in a player
error, this check is not very useful.
This updates the copyright header to all be the same, which is
pretty much an update of where to mail request for a copy of the GPL
and the years of the MPD project. This also puts all committers under
'The Music Player Project' umbrella. These entries should go
individually in the AUTHORS file, for consistancy.
Turn the music_pipe into a simple music_chunk queue. The music_chunk
allocation code is moved to music_buffer, and is now managed with a
linked list instead of a ring buffer. Two separate music_pipe objects
are used by the decoder for the "current" and the "next" song, which
greatly simplifies the cross-fading code.
When the playlist is cleared, pc.errored_song is also cleared. This
causes pc_errored_song_uri() to crash, because it assumes that
pc.errored_song is set. Reset pc.error to fix that assumption.
There is only one location using PIPE_EVENT_SIGNAL: to synchronize
player_command() with player_command_finished(). Use the "notify"
library instead of the event_pipe here.
We are going to migrate away from the concept of notifying the main
thread. There should be events sent to it instead. This patch starts
a series to implement that.
It may be desirable to change the range of integer volume levels
(e.g. to 1024, which may utilize shifts instead of expensive integer
divisions). Introduce the constant PCM_VOLUME_1 which describes the
integer value for "100% volume". This is currently 1000.
"idle" waits until something noteworthy happens on the server,
e.g. song change, playlist modified, database updated. This allows
clients to keep up to date without polling.
QUEUE adds a new song to the player's queue. CANCEL clears the queue.
These two commands replace the old and complex queueState and
queueLockState code.
This variable is superfluous, it is only used to copy its value to
player_control.totalTime. Since the original source of this value
(song->tag->time) will still be available at this point, we can safely
remove fileTime.
