Code submissions have continually suffered from formatting
inconsistencies that constantly have to be addressed. Using
clang-format simplifies this by making code formatting more consistent,
and allows automation of the code formatting so that maintainers can
focus more on the code itself instead of code formatting.
When using more than two channels, the channel map of pulse-audio is incorrect.
Add an API for getting a speaker map based on OBS speaker layout. Then use the
speaker map when connecting to a pulse-audio device, for both source and
monitor output.
This pull request changes the fallback sample format for pulse-audio
to from PA_SAMPLE_S16LE to PA_SAMPLE_FLOAT32LE.
The pulseaudio plugin can handle the following sample format:
* PA_SAMPlE_U8
* PA_SAMPLE_S16LE
* PA_SAMPLE_S32LE
* PA_SAMPLE_FLOAT32LE
When an audio device advertises itself as another format, the pulseaudio-plugin
will ask pulse audio to convert to the fallback sample format.
The fallback PA_SAMPLE_S16LE is not ideal when your audio interface advertises
as PA_SAMPLE_S24LE since the conversion will lose precision.
With PA_SAMPLE_FLOAT32LE there is no precision loss and it is also equals OBS's
internal format.
(also obs, deps/media-playback, libobs/audio-monitoring, decklink,
linux-alsa, linux-pulseaudio, mac-capture, obs-ffmpeg, win-dshow,
win-wasapi)
Default channel layout for 4 channels is 4.0 in FFmpeg.
Replacing quad with 4.0 will improve compatibility since FFmpeg has
better support of its default channel layouts.
(This commit also modifies the following modules: UI,
deps/media-playback, coreaudio-encoder, decklink, linux-alsa,
linux-pulseaudio, mac-capture, obs-ffmpeg, obs-filters, obs-libfdk,
obs-outputs, win-dshow, and win-wasapi)
Adds surround sound audio support to the core, core plugins, and user
interface.
Compatible streaming services: Twitch, FB 360 live
Compatible protocols: rtmp / mpeg-ts tcp udp
Compatible file formats: mkv mp4 ts (others untested)
Compatible codecs: ffmpeg aac, fdk_aac, CoreAudio aac,
opus, vorbis, pcm (others untested).
Tested streaming servers: wowza, nginx
HLS, mpeg-dash : surround passthrough
Html5 players tested with live surround:
videojs, mediaelement, viblast (hls+dash), hls.js
Decklink: on win32, swap channels order for 5.1 7.1
(due to different channel mapping on wav, mpeg, ffmpeg)
Audio filters: surround working.
Monitoring: surround working (win macOs linux (pulse-audio)).
VST: stereo plugins keep in general only the first two channels.
surround plugins should work (e.g. mcfx does).
OS: win, macOs, linux (alsa, pulse-audio).
Misc: larger audio bitrates unlocked to accommodate more channels
NB: mf-aac only supports mono and stereo + 5.1 on win 10
(not implemented due to lack of usefulness)
