"LOG_H" is a macro which is also used by ffmpeg/log.h. This is
ffmpeg's fault, because short macros should be reserved for
applications, but since it's always a good idea to choose prefixed
macro names, even for applications, we are going to do that in MPD.
When one of several output devices failed, MPD tried to reopen it
quite often, wasting a lot of resources. This patch adds a delay:
wait 10 seconds before retrying. This might be changed to exponential
delays later, but for now, it makes the problem go away.
To check whether a device is really on or off, we should rather check
audio_output.open, instead of managing another variable. Wrap
audio_output.open in the inline function audio_output_is_open() and
use it instead of DEVICE_ON and DEVICE_OFF.
Send an output buffer to all output plugins at the same time, instead
of waiting for each of them separately. Make several functions
non-blocking, and introduce the new function audio_output_wait_all()
to synchronize with all audio output threads.
We have eliminated direct accesses to the audio_output struct from
the all output plugins. Make it opaque for them, and move its real
declaration to output_internal.h, similar to decoder_internal.h.
Pass the opaque structure to plugin.init() only, which will return the
plugin's data pointer on success, and NULL on failure. This data
pointer will be passed to all other methods instead of the
audio_output struct.
