Some applications might expect the process function to run concurrently
with the callbacks. PipeWire tries to avoid this by using a lock for the
duration of the process callback. Make an option to disable this.
See #1576
default-session-manager is only used in the pw-uninstalled.sh developer
script. c25cec230c added the ability to
use the system-installed wireplumber but other than that this option is
largely superfluous.
Drop it and pick whichever the first entry to session-manager is. For
the vast use-case of either MS or WP this will just work fine and for
the niche case of building both SMs one just needs to make sure the
order is as desired.
And in the case of no session manager, the config line to start the SM
is now commented out.
Right now, meson -Dsession-managers=wireplumber will fail the build
because the default session manager option is set to media-session - and
if that isn't being built we error out.
Use an 'auto' value instead, selecting the first session-manager in the
list as the default one.
We have -Dsession-managers and -Ddefault-session-manager, the latter is
currently only used for pw-uninstalled.sh. Let's adjust the error
message to use "default" so it's a bit easier to understand by this may
fail with -Dsession-managers=wireplumber.
Change codec factory names to api.codec.bluez5.*, so that they won't
conflict with old config file lib name rules for api.bluez5.*
Specify the fallback library name when loading the codecs, so that it
works without the rules in config files.
Each dictionary needs to fully match but out of the dicts we have, only
one needs to match to apply. Reword that for clarity.
Also document regex vs normal string comparison vs the magic null
string.
Make easier to package A2DP codecs separately, by splitting each to a
separate SPA plugin. Adjust the code to not use a global variable for
the codec list.
The A2DP SPA interface API is in the bluez5 private headers, and not
exposed in installed SPA headers, as it's too close to the
implementation.
Instruct the policy to not configure audio adapter nodes in DSP mode. Instead,
Device nodes will always be configured in passthrough mode, and client nodes
will be configured in convert or passthrough mode depending on whether the
client format matches the device format or not.
Add option to set NULL data as the port data so that plugins can
skip processing.
Add 8 mixer ports and skip NULL data.
Move silence and discard samples to static area.
Improve the virtual sink examples. use the correct mixing for the HRIR
channels.
For hdmi and iec958 devices, enumerate the iec958 formats and
codecs. Initially only PCM is supported as a codec but with
a property or an init option, the list of codecs can be dynamically
configured.
aptX-LL sink devices may send back mSBC encoded data corresponding to
microphone input. It appears to be enabled when the bidirectional link
is set in the caps, and the device also supports this.
Implement mSBC decoding in the duplex channel.
Tested to be working on Avantree Aria Pro.
Support the low-latency variant of the aptx codec.
The magic mostly seems to be on the device side, since the stream is the
same as standard aptx, but latency is smaller even if stream/packet
sizes are the same.
Sound output latency is noticeably less than with the standard aptx.
Tested on Sennheiser HD 250 / Avantree Aria Pro.
The codec in principle also supports bidirectional duplex streams,
but that is not implemented here.
Enable SBC-XQ by default, and move it at the end of the codecs list, so
that bluez does not connect to it automatically except when it is the
codec used previously.
When the codec is disabled by quirks, it won't appear in the codecs
list, and so can't be selected by user (and so won't be connected
automatically).
However, since SelectConfiguration does not carry information which
device is in question, we cannot prevent BlueZ connecting to the codec
even if it's disabled for a specific device. If the "impossible" occurs
regardless, we won't reject the connection and the profile will be shown
as the generic "A2DP" one. If the sound is garbled, the user can select
some other profile that works.
Add module that switches bluez device profile to HFP/HSP if an input
stream (non-monitor, autoconnect) appears, and the current default
output device is bluez one that does not have input route.
When all input streams are gone, switch all changed profiles back.
Pending restore state is saved to session manager state files, in order
to restore it if e.g. devices get disconnected. This usually is not
currently necessary since the bluez5 plugin prefers to connect to A2DP
over HFP, but might matter in future with backchannel-enabled A2DP
codecs.
Add a default.clock.allowed-rates property that lists the possible
rates for the graph.
Add node.rate and node.lock-rate properties to suggest a graph rate
and lock the rate.
Collect the largest clock rate from the nodes and if it is allowed,
try to configure it as the graph rate. Only switch rates when the
driver is IDLE or suspended or when we force a rate.
No alternative samplerates are specified because we first need to
work around a common driver bug (cards with 1 cristal need the same
rate for capture as playback) for this to work.
200ms seems a little small, some plugins initialize themselves from the
RT thread and get killed. 2 seconds seem to be a better default.
The important part is that there is a limit so that runaway processes
are killed and don't lock up the system.
Fixes#1344
It is more like how JACK2 does things.
We get FIFO scheduling by default and we don't get killed by RTKit
when doing long operations, which seem to be the case for many
plugins.
As suggested by George Kiagiadakis, adds calls to summary() function
for each feature that is by default set to auto, so that an overview
of their effective state is printed at the end of meson setup or
meson --reconfigure command.
Currently ordering is a bit messy but tidying it up would detach
the summary() functions from the dependencies they rely on and could
be done later along with meson_options.txt re-ordering so that the
two match as much as possible.
Some distributions set --auto_features=enabled which messes with the
internal logic of the build system when features are used for other
purposes than pure dependency control. The only solution is to either
avoid the value auto or change the type of the option to non-feature.
This commit does the later by replacing -Dmedia-session, -Dwireplumber
and -Dsession-manager with the new -Dsession-managers array and
-Ddefault-session-manager combo options.
Fixes#1333Fixes#1336
This allows building wireplumber as part of the pipewire build
and running it in the uninstalled environment instead of media-session.
Building each session manager is individually contolled by the options:
-Dmedia-session=auto/enabled/disabled
-Dwireplumber=auto/enabled/disabled
And controlling which one is used in pipewire.conf is done with:
-Dsession-manager=media-session/wireplumber
Wireplumber's source tree must be in subprojects/wireplumber/
If this is missing, the .wrap file ensures that the latest git
master is downloaded while meson configures the build.
This git tree will not be automatically updated later, you need
to ensure that it is up-to-date on your own.
