Add flag to always assign a node to a driver. This makes sure that
even when the node is not linked to anything, it will still be
scheduled by an active driver. This is needed for JACK support.
clean_convert() removes the internally negotiated formats but
it does not set the format (or buffers) of the externally visible
ports. Therefore, don't clear the buffers_set flags.
Instead, clear the buffers_set flag when we explicitly reconfigure
the ports, when we also clear the format.
Also clear the port buffers when we set a NULL format.
Fixes#178
Makes a device with a source and sink that automatically
proxies all physical ports from jack. Jack then drives our
PipeWire pipeline from its own thread.
When we do invoke from the loop thread, first process the pending
invoke items before handling ours. This can be used to sync the
invoke queue before cleanup.
Keep the output port buffers in a special mix info. They should
stay there even when the mix is removed and should only be cleared
explicitly with a NULL Format or 0 use_buffers.
Implement per channel volume on channelmix. Extend control on stream to
take an array of values when possible.
Remove name argument from pw_node_new and pw_device_new. We can pass
this as a property instead.
Improve properties on nodes to more closely match what pulseaudio does.
Don't let the monitor do too much with the udev properties but let the
session manager set the description and icon-names.
Remove some change_mask flags for things that don't change in
introspect. Use the flags to mark changes in -cli and -monitor.
Add a new PortConfig parameter to configure ports of elements that
are marked with the SPA_NODE_FLAG_*_PORT_CONFIG. This is used to
configure the operation of the audioconver/audioadapter nodes and
how it should convert the internal format. We want to use the
Profile parameter only for cases where there is an enumeration of
values, like with device configuration.
Add unit tests for audioconvert and adapter to check if they handle
PortConfig correctly.
Make the media session use the PortConfig to dynamically configure
the device nodes.
Remove audio-dsp, it is not used anymore and can/should be implemented
with a simple audioconvert spa node now and some PortConfig.
This allows picking F32LE as the default format on links that have
no restriction and it avoids failing negotiation when the restricted
end cannot handle S16/F32/F32P
For instance this pipeline would previously fail:
audio-dsp mode=merge ! audio-dsp mode=convert ! alsa-sink
old negotiation: S16LE S24_32LE
new negotiation: F32LE S24_32LE
The link between the audio-dsp nodes has no restriction, so previously
it would negotiate S16LE, which would then fail to negotiate with alsa-sink
because fmtconvert does not know how to convert S16LE to S24_32LE directly.
With this change, the middle link negotiates to F32LE, which can be
converted to anything.
Remove the node buffers reply again. We don't need it. Instead add a
new method to the client-node to upload an array of buffer datas.
This method is called after the client has allocated buffer mem. It
will update the buffers on the server side with the client allocated
memory.
Wait for the async reply of use_buffers when doing alloc_buffers so
that we can get the updated buffer mem before we continue.
Let the link follow the states of the ports.
Add some error code to the port error states.
Add PW_STREAM_FLAG_ALLOC_BUFFERS flag to make the client alloc buffer
memory.
Remove the CAN_USE_BUFFERS flag, it is redundant. We can know this
because of the IO params and buffer params.
Add flags to the port_use_buffer call. We also want this call to
replace port_alloc_buffer. Together with a new result event we can
ask the node to (a)synchronously fill up the buffer data for us. This
is part of a plan to let remote nodes provide buffer data.
