Rewrite win32 directx audio output, add 5.1 and SPDIF support

Reported by: Jeff Lu <jll544@…> Owned by: Nigel
Priority: minor Milestone: unknown
Component: Ports - Windows Version: head
Severity: medium Keywords: win32 directx
Cc: Ticket locked: no

Description

The existing implementation of win32 directx audio (not to be confused with "windows audio") is missing a lot of functionality (soundstretch, upmix, etc.) because it overrides the AudioOutputBase? class at a low level. It is not worthwhile to re-implement these base class features in the directx subclass.

This rewrite implements audio output in the standard way (WriteAudio? called from OutputAudioLoop?), exposing the functionality that was previously hidden. SPDIF passthru, 5.1 PCM support, and volume control are also added as part of this rewrite.

Some sound card drivers, notably Creative Labs, downmix 5.1 PCM streams to stereo when using the "windows audio" interface, so it is worthwhile to have a functioning DirectX audio output class.

Disregard the first patch. This revision adds a check for the rare case that Pause gets called before the device is open.

comment:1 Changed 15 years ago by Jeff Lu <jll544@…>

Added backports for both windows audio and directx audio, so that 0.21-fixes users also can enjoy analog 5.1 and SPDIF on win32.

i built head with this just now and it works very well. audio and video are in sync. this is 2 channel analog output using DirectX:

hopefully this can be added to the code soon

comment:3 Changed 15 years ago by Simon Kenyon <simon@…>

here is the necessary changes for invoking this change in win32-packager.pl that is in case anyone else want to build it to test

(In [21106]) Windows audio improvements and fixes with patch from Jeff Lu. This adds 6 channel and digital output support to the AudioOutputWin? class. Refs #6538.

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

(In [21108]) DirectX audio re-write with patch from Jeff Lu. This provides an implementation consistent with the other audio classes and adds support for digital passthrough, 5.1 pcm etc. At the very least it should fix a significant av sync issue with DirectX audio. Closes #6538.
