[subsynth-devel] [Task #45670] Find an audio library to replace OpenAL for unix

[<no...@so...>]

Task #45670 has been updated. 

Project: subsynth
Subproject: core audio
Summary: Find an audio library to replace OpenAL for unix
Complete: 100%
Status: Closed
Authority  : subatomic
Assigned to: subatomic, nonchocoboy, aegis

Description: OpenAL's streaming support is buggy.  It clicks between each buffer swap.  For unix subsynth we really need to replace OpenAL as an option or we will sound terrible.

writing to dev/dsp is cool, but we dont want to rely on it.  a thin wrapper like portaudio would be best so that our code runs everywhere. :)  

openal is so heavyweight and their raw port access is (currently) buggy, lets not rely on it.

Is there anything wrong with just writing to /dev/dsp ?
