...f it has even been allocated. Ken probably didn't notice because he was using a buffer (which is optional). :) A patch for ogg123.c is attached.

Here's yet another ogg123 patch that: 1) Adds a command-line parameter "--prebuffer n" or "-p n" that decodes "n" chunks into the buffer before even forking off the writer thread. 2) Moves the buffer_shutdown call in ogg123.c to its proper place. 3) Doesn't use signals ;) This way, the default behavior is to start playing immediately, while allowing the user to buffer as much as he/she wants. It may be worth it to make the writer thread stop and rebuffer when it empties, but that may require a rew...

...them for that purpose. However, since I have to pick something to put in those blanks, I want something that will be useful in the most cases. [The long term solution is to create a raw device that just dumps the data so you can massage it into whatever format you like.] Oh yeah, Ken, commit the buffer_shutdown patch in CVS so wav writing works again, please!! --- Stan Seibert --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'vorbis-dev-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsu...

There seem to be a couple of problems with the buffering code just checked in: 1. buffer_shutdown(NULL) is called when the bitrate changes and you're not using a buffer. 2. The buffer is not used for anything but the first file. 3. The buffer isn't explicitly closed when playback is finished, sometimes leaving an ogg123 process sitting sucking up 100% CPU time. Here's a patch tha...
