...og tells a little of the story. For one, the buffer is nearly completely rewriten. That means deadlock cases. I've caught a few, but I need help. Anyone who's computer is faster or slower than my own or perhaps schedules things differently (i.e. everyone) please hit the ogg123 on my branch (kcarnold_work) with the strangest conditions you can find, including SIGINT (ctrl-c) at various different points. Also try out the streaming; it's using libcurl now so you can stream from just about anything, though the options system to enable most of the extended streaming options (e.g. proxy, cookies, aut...

I was just about to commit a big buffer overhaul when I realized that it would probably break a lot of stuff and I'd get yelled at, so it's in the kcarnold_work tag (or will be momentarily...). Have a look at it, try to make it deadlock. If I messed up the CVS tagging, also let me know -- I know only enough about CVS to be dangerous :) This should also reduce CPU usage noticably. The reader and writer process both spend a lot less time doing nothing now....

...I'll be able to get it done by then. That said, since I have moved the buffer code to pthreads and added libcurl streaming, the new code needs a lot of testing, specifically on platforms other than Linux/x86. Anyone with such a platform available can help greatly by checking out my branch, 'kcarnold_work' of vorbis-tools/ogg123, and testing these things: 1. Does the pthread buffer code work? 2. Does libcurl build and run?, and 3. Does it all work when you try to play a file or stream? I'm especially interested to see if you can make the buffer deadlock; I have removed all deadlock condit...
