This enables the JACK output plugin on Windows, but doesn't link
against libjack64.dll, instead loads the DLL at runtime with
LoadLibrary(). This kludge avoids the extremely fragile JACK shared
memory protocol by using the system's libjack64.dll, without requiring
the same DLL at build time.
This allows users to disable the "CUE files as directories" feature
without having to disable the CUE playlist plugin completely. This
feature has been annoying some users.
The bug https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11413 makes MPD
crash after at most a minute of using the plugin. Since this bug is
five years old already and it doesn't look like it will ever be fixed,
all libsmbclient code in MPD is scheduled for removal. For now, the
plugin is disabled by default so people are less likely to hit the
crash bug.
Closes https://github.com/MusicPlayerDaemon/MPD/issues/991
MPD uses soxr with prefined resample recipes. Soxr also support defining a recipe your self.
This commit will support a custom recipe by changing the existing quality setting to "custom".
The same structs as the predefined recipes uses can now set by hand.
This will make the following settings available:
- precision 16|20|24|28|32 bits, example "28"
- phase_response - 0-100, example "45"
- passband_end - used bandwidth of source 80-99.7%, example "99.7.0"
- stopband_begin - anti aliasing 100.0+%, example "100".
- attenuation - signal reduciton in dB's, 0-30. example "3.0".
- flags "0" - additional bitmask with extra settings
The data is set in the structs soxr_quality_spec and soxr_io_spec (found in soxr.h).
Genres are not part of the SID format, so SID files are genreless. This
"default_genre" option may be used to assign a default genre to all SID
music, for example "SID", "C64", "Chiptune", etc.
This is useful in multiple mpd instances scenario, or multiple pulse outputs defined on the same mpd instance.
It is actually a more flexible way to route flows than the "sink" parameter, letting the PulseAudio routing do its job, but with the ability to isolate routing for each output.
If not specified, the role remains like it was before this commit, ie "music"
using the device "default" brings this plugin into line with the AlsaOutputPlugin; and a sample rate of 48kHz is more widely used as a native default for modern hardware than 44.1kHz
Also fixes an inconsistency between the docs and code.
