The compile-time calculation for `factor` overflows because `1<<31`
cannot be represented by `int`. By casting to `uintmax_t` first, we
can avoid this overflow.
Closes#380
Grouping in the "list" command was completely broken from the start,
unlike "count group". I have no idea what I have been thinking when I
wrote commit ae178c77bd, but it didn't
make any sense.
This commit is a rewrite of the feature.
For clients to be able to detect this feature, this commit also
increments the protocol version.
So long, autotools! This is my last MPD related project to migrate
away from it. It has its strengths, but also very obvious weaknesses
and weirdnesses. Today, many of its quirks are not needed anymore,
and are cumbersome and slow. Now welcome our new Meson overlords!
Previously, there was the setting `buffered_before_play` which
specified a percentage of the audio buffer, defaulting to `10%`. That
was working well enough for quite some time, until high-quality audio
formats became common.
At 44.1 kHz, 16 bit stereo, MPD collected 2.3 seconds worth of data in
the buffer before starting playback. With the same default settings
and 192 kHz, 24 bit stereo, that was only 0.27 seconds.
Making this depend on the byte size only leads to high latency at low
quality, and too little data at high quality. The natural choice
would be to use a duration instead of a byte size, which should give
the same good experience with all audio formats.
Since the `buffered_before_play` configuration setting was not
understood well by users and caused more harm than good, this commit
deprecates it. It has now no effect.
- add Settings: Activity to start / stop MPD Service (Main).
- Main is a service that run in foreground with a notification. See
Service.startForeground documentation for more details.
- Main.Client is used to control the service: start or stop it and also receive
callbacks when service encounters an error, is killed, is started or is
stopped.
- Main.start to start the service without any fallback.
When using a database that was not created with a WebDAV music_directory
(i.e., if using a remote database, on which updates happen locally) and
using the Curl storage plugin, MPD would previously send GET requests that
had unescaped spaces in them. This change uses Curl's URL-encode API to
solve this.
With a "+" or "-" prefix, the "metadata_to_use" setting can manipulate
the existing default. This way, one can enable `TAG_COMMENT` without
having to list all the other tags.
This code was added in 21851c0673 but
looks completely broken:
- the status code is "206 OK" but "206" would be "Partial Content"
- the "Content-Length" header has a bogus value
- the "Content-RangeX" parameter has different bogus values (why
"Content-RangeX" anyway and not "Content-Range"?)
Apart from that, there are strange undocumented non-standard headers
which are probably there to work around bugs/expectations in one
broken proprietary client product. But these days, MPD doesn't bend
over to support broken clients. So let's kill this code.
Closes#304
For remote files (not streams), this downloads as quickly as possible
to a large buffer instead of throttling the stream during playback.
Throttling can make the server impatient and it may then disconnect.
This is what Qobuz and Tidal do, and this commit attempts to solve
this by not letting the Qobuz/Tidal server wait (closes#241).
