neaacdec.h declares all arguments as "unsigned long", but internally
expects uint32_t pointers. This triggers gcc warnings on 64 bit
architectures. To avoid that, make configure.ac detect whether we're
using Debian's corrected headers or the original libfaad headers. In
any case, pass a pointer to an uint32_t, conditionally casted to
"unsigned long*".
The wavpack open function gives us an option called OPEN_STREAMING. This
provides more robust and error tolerant playback, but it automatically
disables seeking. (More exactly the wavpack lib will not return the
length information.) So, if the stream is already not seekable we can
use this option safely.
According to the documentation, mpc_decoder_decode() returns an
mpc_uint32_t. Since the special return value (mpc_uint32_t)-1
translates to a very large long integer, this may cause segmentation
faults if not interpreted properly.
Don't split the buffer conversion loop. When libmpcdec returns a
chunk, convert and send the whole chunk at a time. This moves several
checks out of the loop, and greatly improves performance.
Parse ID3 tags, even when they are in the middle of the stream. Very
few streams provide embedded ID3 tags. Most of them send only
Shoutcast "icy" tags, which limits the practical usefulness of this
patch.
When a command is received, decode_next_frame_header() and
decodeNextFrame() return DECODE_BREAK. This is already checked by
both callers, which means that we can eliminate lots of
decoder_get_command() checks.
The stream_decode() and file_decode() methods returned a boolean,
indicating whether they were able to decode the song. This is
redundant, since we already know that: if decoder_initialized() has
been called (and dc.state==DECODE), the plugin succeeded. Change both
methods to return void.
The function simplifies wavpack_replaygain(), because it already
contains the float parser, and it works with a fixed buffer instead of
doing expensive heap allocations.
The flac plugin wasn't initialized properly when an OGG file was being
decoded. For some reason, flac_process_metadata() was explicitly not
called for OGG files. Since that seems to fix the issue, make it
always call flac_process_metadata().
Since decoder_list.c does not include the libflac headers, it cannot
know whether to add the oggflac plugin to the decoder list. Solve
this by always enabling the oggflac sub-plugin, even with older
libflac versions. When the libflac API cannot support oggflac,
disable the plugin at runtime by returning "false" from its init()
method.
At this moment the wavpack lib doesn't use the return value of the
push_back function, which has an equivalent meaning of the return
value of ungetc(). This is a lucky situation, because so far it
simply returned with 1 as a hard coded value. From now on the
function will return EOF on error. (This function makes exactly one
byte pushable back.)
There are some functions in the wavpack-mpd input streams wrapper
which had too commonly used names (especially can_seek). I prefixed
these with "wavpack_input_".
libwavpack expects the read_bytes() stream method to fill the whole
buffer, and fails badly when we return a partial read (i.e. not enough
data available yet). This caused wavpack streams to break.
Re-implement the buffer filling loop.
Instead of manually waiting for the input stream to become ready (to
catch server errors), just read the first byte. Since the
wavpack_input has the capability to push back one byte, we can simply
re-feed it. Advantage is: decoder_read() handles everything for us,
i.e. waiting for the stream, polling for decoder commands and error
handling.
The API of mp4_load_tag() was strange: it always returned a tag
object, no matter if a tag was found in the file; the existence of a
tag was indicated with the tag_found integer reference. This flag is
superfluous, since we can simply check whether the tag is empty or
not.
Allocate the mp4ff_callback_t object on the stack. This is easier to
handle, since we don't have to free it. Incidentally, this fixes a
memory leak in mp4_load_tag().
The function decoder_read() already cares about the decoder command,
and loops until data is available. Reduced mpd_ffmpeg_read() to no
more than the decoder_read() call.
If an input stream provides tags (e.g. from an icecast server), send
them in the decoder_data() and decoder_tag() methods. Removed the
according code from the mp3 and oggvorbis plugins - decoders shouldn't
have to care about stream tags.
This patch also adds the missing decoder_tag() invocation to the mp3
plugin.
The "mod" decoder plugin was being initialized lazily, but was
deinitialized unconditionally. That led to segmentation faults.
Convert mod_initMikMod() to be the global module initialization
method. The MPD core should care about lazy initialization.
The try_decode() method may have read some data from the stream, which
is now lost. To make this data available to other methods, get it
back by rewinding the input stream after each try_decode() invocation.
The ogg and wavpack plugins did this manually and inconsistently; this
code can now be removed.
Ogg and ffmpeg detection was disabled when the stream was not
seekable, because the detection was too expensive. Since the curl
input stream can now rewind the stream cheaply, we can re-enable
detection on streams.
