Use delete_directory() for removing sub directories instead of
dirvec_clear(). This ensures that all memory occupied by
subdirectories of deleted directories is freed.
When a directory is deleted, MPD deleted only the directory from the
database; it did not bother to walk the full tree to free all memory
and to remove deleted songs from the playlist. Replace a
dirvec_delete() with delete_directory().
When you change the filesystem charset, discard the old database file
and create a new one. The old database file will most likely contain
stale or invalid information.
Currently, only the sidplay decoder plugin requires C++, and in all
other cases, MPD could build well without a C++ compiler.
Unfortunately, autoconf/automake are confused when we have a
conditional AC_PROG_CXX check. We could add lots of workarounds for
individual problems, but let's just always require a C++ compiler, and
forget about this autotools limitation.
There are a few problems left in this plugin:
- fluidsynth decodes in real time, while MPD prefers to buffer as
quickly as possible; as a workaround, this plugin uses a timer
object to synchronize with real-time playback
- I don't know yet how fluidsynth tells me when the song has ended
- the "soundfont" configuration setting is not yet documented, and it
will likely change soon (in favor of a per-decoder configuration
block)
When the sidplay plugin is disabled, "./configure" does not look for
the C++ compiler. This creates an odd situation: automake requires
the am__fastdepCXX conditional, although configure did not generate
it. Work around this autotools limitation by manually disabling
am__fastdepCXX.
When MPD is not playing, it may still remember which is the "current"
song. When you switch to "random" mode, MPD will always start playing
exactly this song. This defies the goal of "random" mode a little.
Clear the "current" song when MPD is not playing during the "random"
mode switch.
The output_command library provides a command interface to the audio
outputs. It assumes the input comes from an untrusted source
(i.e. the client) and verifies all parameters.
In addition to audio_format_valid(), provide functions which validate
only one attribute of an audio_format. These functions are reused by
audio_format_parse().
Added audio_format_parse() in a separate library, with a modern
interface: return a GError instead of logging errors. This allows the
caller to deal with the error.
When MPD explicitly starts playing, ignore the "REOPEN_AFTER" timeout.
This timeout was useful when MPD attempted to reopen a failed device
over and over, but it confuses users when they explicitly tell MPD to
start playing, while MPD insists to wait for the 10 seconds to pass.
Fix a memory leak: it was not guaranteed that pcm_convert_deinit() was
called for each pcm_convert_init(). This patch always (de)initializes
the pcm_convert library when the audio_output.open flag is flipped.
Pass the music chunk as a "const void *" to the encoder, instead of a
"const char *". Actually, both encoders currently expect 16 bit
samples, passing a 8-bit character is rather pointless.
The crossfading code shouldn't depend on the audio output code. Pass
the current audio format to cross_fade_calc() and let it compare
directly, instead of using isCurrentAudioFormat().
When MPD is stopped, but the last song is still the "current song",
and you delete it, playlist->current is not updated, and becomes an
invalid value. Fix this by catching "!playlist->playing &&
playlist->current == (int)songOrder".
audio_output_config_count() returns the number of audio outputs in the
configuration file. It is only used by initAudioDriver(). The public
function audio_output_count() now returns audioOutputArraySize.
When we reset pc.next_song if there is no song queued, this might
cause a race condition: the next song to be played is cleared, while
pc.command was already set. Clear the "next_song" only if there is a
song queued for the current do_play() invocation.
If a new song is queued before calling playerSeek(), then the player
and the playlist enter an inconsistent state, because the player
discards the playlist's "queued" song in favor of the seeked song.
Call playlist_update_queued_song() after playerSeek().
After a player command (successful or not), reset pc.next_song,
because the queue is supposed to be empty then. Otherwise,
playlist.queued and pc.next_song may disagree, which triggers an
assertion failure.
Commit f78cddb4 introduced a regression: after a song was moved, the
order array was not updated (in random mode). This caused MPD to
think the "current" song has changed when you moved something to the
position of the current song.
