Based on this API, we will add parsers for EXTM3U, PLS, ASX, last.fm
radio and others.
There is no integration into the MPD core yet. Right now, we have a
command line test program. This is work in progress.
This patch implements a light-weight inotify library, and watches all
directories below the music directory. It updates all directories
where files changed after a delay of 5 seconds.
The recorder plugin writes audio played by MPD to a file. This may be
useful for recording radio streams.
This implementation is incomplete, because support for tags is
missing, and MPD should be able to record each track to a different
file.
Instead of hard-coding the path "/etc/mpd.conf", use the configured
$(sysconfdir) path. This can be set with:
./configure --sysconfdir=/etc
Note that this changes the default path to "/usr/local/etc/mpd.conf",
given the default prefix "/usr/local". This is actually more correct
than the old default.
This encoder plugin is a replacement for the LAME encoder plugin for
those who prefer a "free" (non-patent encumbered) encoder library.
Most of the plugin source code is copied from the LAME encoder plugin,
since the LAME and TwoLAME APIs are nearly the same.
Do all the software volume stuff inside each output thread, not in the
player thread. This allows one software mixer per output device, and
also allows the user to configure the mixer type (hardware or
software) for each audio output.
This moves the global "mixer_type" setting into the "audio_output"
section, deprecating the "mixer_enabled" flag.
This mixer plugin may be used instead of the traditional global
software mixer. It integrates with the "volume" filter plugin, and
can control the software volume of an audio output which has no
hardware mixer.
This patch adds initial filter support for audio outputs. Each audio
output gets a "filter" attribute, which is used by ao_play_chunk().
The PCM conversion is now performed by convert_filter_plugin.
audio_output.convert_state has been removed.
The "volume" filter plugin will replace the current software volume
code. One "volume" filter may be attached to each output device.
This will allow the user to use hardware mixers for some devices, and
software mixers for other devices at the same time.
Currently, neither the filter API nor the "volume" plugin is
integrated into MPD.
This little program is used to test mixer plugins in an isolated
environment. This is ALSA-only currently, because we don't have a
real "plugin list" yet, and I'm too lazy to implement a switch.
[mk: folded with patch "Put icy related functions in extra source
files"; moved icy_server.c from HAVE_CURL to ENABLE_HTTPD_OUTPUT;
removed an unused variable]
Let's get rid of the "shout" plugin, and the awfully complicated
icecast daemon setup! MPD can do better if it's doing the HTTP server
stuff on its own. This new plugin has several advantages:
- easier to set up - only one daemon, no password settings, no mount
settings
- MPD controls the encoder and thus already knows the packet
boundaries - icecast has to parse them
- MPD doesn't bother to encode data while nobody is listening
This implementation is very experimental (no header parsing, ignores
request URI, no icy-metadata, ...). It should be able to suport
several encoders in parallel in the future (with different bit rates,
different codec, ...), to make MPD the perfect streaming server. Once
MPD gets multi-player support, we can even mount several different
radio stations on one server.
Even if libsamplerate support is enabled, compile the fallback
resampler. When the user specifies the option
"samplerate_converter=internal", it is chosen in favor of
libsamplerate. This may help users with a weak FPU who don't want to
compile a custom MPD from source, because the fallback resampler does
not use floating point operations.
Added diversion functions to pcm_resample.c. These check which
resampler is enabled at compile time (libsamplerate or fallback).
This prepares the following patch.
Passing libraries through LDFLAGS is a mistake that causes link to fail
when using --as-needed. Since the ld arguments are positional, so are
libtool's. Use the proper variable, thus, to pass the libraries.
This patch introduces the mixer for the pulse output.
Technically speaking, the pulse index is needed to get or set
the volume. You must define callback fonctions to get this index since
the pulse output in mpd is done using the simpe api. The pulse simple api
does not provide the index of the newly defined output.
So callback fonctions are associated to the pulse context.
The list of all the sink input is then retreived.
Then we select the name of the mpd pulse output and control
its volume by its associated index number.

[mk: fixed whitespace errors and broke long lines; removed
daemonization changes from main.c]
Turn the music_pipe into a simple music_chunk queue. The music_chunk
allocation code is moved to music_buffer, and is now managed with a
linked list instead of a ring buffer. Two separate music_pipe objects
are used by the decoder for the "current" and the "next" song, which
greatly simplifies the cross-fading code.
Added music_pipe_allocate(), music_pipe_push() and
music_pipe_cancel(). Those functions allow the caller (decoder thread
in this case) to do its own chunk management. The functions
music_pipe_flush() and music_pipe_tag() can now be removed.
The lastfm input plugin enables MPD to play lastfm:// URLs. This
plugin is not complete yet: it plays only the first song in the
last.fm playlist, and the playlist parser isn't even implemented
properly.
Create the socket_util.c library, the first function is
sockaddr_to_string(): it converts a sockaddr struct to a string
containing the IP address in a human-readable form.
Renamed the old AM_CFLAGS to AM_CPPFLAGS, because it contained only
preprocessor options. Append it to src_mpd_CPPFLAGS. Removed
GLIB_LIBS from src_mpd_CPPFLAGS, because it is already part of
AM_LDFLAGS.
