Shifting from the buffer queue is a common operation, and should be
provided as a separate function. Move code to aac_buffer_shift() and
add a bunch of assertions.
When checking for EOF, we should not check whether the read request
has been fully satisified. The InputStream API does not guarantee
that readFromInputStream() always fills the whole buffer, if EOF is
not reached. Since there is the function inputStreamAtEOF() dedicated
for this purpose, we should use it for EOF checking after
readFromInputStream()==0.
Fill the AacBuffer even when nothing has been consumed yet. The
function should not check for consumed data, but for free space at the
end of the buffer.
The flag "ready" indicates whether the input stream is ready and it
has parsed all meta data. Previously, it was impossible for
decodeStart() to see the content type of HTTP input streams, because
at that time, the HTTP response wasn't parsed yet.
With the functions decoder_plugin_register() and
decoder_plugin_unregister(), decoder plugins can register a
"secondary" plugin, like the flac input plugin does this for
"oggflac".
"decoder plugin" is a better name than "input plugin", since the
plugin does not actually do the input - InputStream does. Also don't
use typedef, so we can forward-declare it if required.
PlayerControl.command replaces the old attributes play, stop, pause,
closeAudio, lockQueue, unlockQueue, seek. The main thread waits for
each command synchronously, so there can only be one command enabled
at a time anyway.
The wavpack decoder plugin implements a hack, and it needs the song
URL for that. This API (and the hack) should be revised later, but
add that function for now.
Since we want to hide mpd internals from the decoder plugins, the
plugins should not check dc->state whether they have already called
decoder_initialized(). Use a local variable to track that.
Some decoder commands are implemented in the decoder plugins, thus
they need to have an API call to signal that their current command has
been finished. Let them use the new decoder_command_finished()
instead of the internal dc_command_finished().
Another big patch which hides internal mpd APIs from decoder plugins:
decoder plugins regularly poll dc->command; expose it with a
decoder_api.h function.
Since we moved all PCM conversions to decoder_data(), the attribute
convState isn't being used anymore by the OutputBuffer code. Move it
to struct decoder.
InputPlugin is the API which is implemented by a decoder plugin. This
belongs to the public API/ABI, so move it to decoder_api.h. It will
later be renamed to something like "decoder_plugin".
Since we have merged dc->stop, dc->seek into one variable, we don't
have to check both conditions at a time; we can replace "!stop &&
!seek" with "none".
dc->audioFormat is set once by the decoder plugins before invoking
decoder_initialized(); hide dc->audioFormat and let the decoder pass
an AudioFormat pointer to decoder_initialized().
We are now beginning to remove direct structure accesses from the
decoder plugins. decoder_clear() and decoder_flush() mask two very
common buffer functions.
Code simplification: since we are not using in-band signalling with
the chunk index anymore, we can just return a pointer to the tail
chunk instead of the index.
OutputBuffer should be a more generic low-level library, without
dependencies to the other headers. This patch adds the field
"notify", which is used to signal the player thread. It is passed in
the constructor, and removes the need to compile with the decode.h
header.
After the decoder has been initialized and the audio device has been
opened, don't sleep. The decoder plugin won't do anything special nor
will it care to wake us up for some reason.
decoder_initialized() sets the state to DECODE_STATE_DECODE and wakes
up the player thread. It is called by the decoder plugin after its
internal initialization is finished. More arguments will be added
later to prevent direct accesses to the DecoderControl struct.
The decoder struct should later be made opaque to the decoder plugin,
because maintaining a stable struct ABI is quite difficult. The ABI
should only consist of a small number of stable functions.
Don't use wrappers like player_wakeup_decoder_nb(). These have been
wrappers calling notify.c functions, for compatibility with the
existing code when we migrated to notify.c.
