fd_set stuff in Aulibint.c .
- updated config/config.sub and config.guess to properly
detect DragonFly systems.
- Applied patch from Mark Davies and Joerg Sonnenberger
correcting some BSD issues and adding DragonFly support.

4/10/2005 1.7a (devel)
- applied patch from Mark Davies correcting audio/Imakefile
to properly define BSD44SOCKETS on NetBSD systems.
- Applied patch from Steve McIntyre correcting CYWIN -> CYGWIN
typo in server/dda/voxware/auvoxware.c
- applied patch from Steve McIntyre Correcting some Gcc 4.0
and AMD64 issues.
Also:
On NetBSD, libmikmod dynamically loads esound, so there is
no library dependency -- do not include esound bl3.mk in those
cases.
XXX: please check other OPSYS if they do the same, and add cases
USE_TOOLS and any of "autoconf", "autoconf213", "automake" or
"automake14". Also, we don't need to call the auto* tools via
${ACLOCAL}, ${AUTOCONF}, etc., since the tools framework takes care
to symlink the correct tool to the correct name, so we can just use
aclocal, autoconf, etc.
Several changes are involved since they are all interrelated. These
changes affect about 1000 files.
The first major change is rewriting bsd.builtin.mk as well as all of
the builtin.mk files to follow the new example in bsd.builtin.mk.
The loop to include all of the builtin.mk files needed by the package
is moved from bsd.builtin.mk and into bsd.buildlink3.mk. bsd.builtin.mk
is now included by each of the individual builtin.mk files and provides
some common logic for all of the builtin.mk files. Currently, this
includes the computation for whether the native or pkgsrc version of
the package is preferred. This causes USE_BUILTIN.* to be correctly
set when one builtin.mk file includes another.
The second major change is teach the builtin.mk files to consider
files under ${LOCALBASE} to be from pkgsrc-controlled packages. Most
of the builtin.mk files test for the presence of built-in software by
checking for the existence of certain files, e.g. <pthread.h>, and we
now assume that if that file is under ${LOCALBASE}, then it must be
from pkgsrc. This modification is a nod toward LOCALBASE=/usr. The
exceptions to this new check are the X11 distribution packages, which
are handled specially as noted below.
The third major change is providing builtin.mk and version.mk files
for each of the X11 distribution packages in pkgsrc. The builtin.mk
file can detect whether the native X11 distribution is the same as
the one provided by pkgsrc, and the version.mk file computes the
version of the X11 distribution package, whether it's built-in or not.
The fourth major change is that the buildlink3.mk files for X11 packages
that install parts which are part of X11 distribution packages, e.g.
Xpm, Xcursor, etc., now use imake to query the X11 distribution for
whether the software is already provided by the X11 distribution.
This is more accurate than grepping for a symbol name in the imake
config files. Using imake required sprinkling various builtin-imake.mk
helper files into pkgsrc directories. These files are used as input
to imake since imake can't use stdin for that purpose.
The fifth major change is in how packages note that they use X11.
Instead of setting USE_X11, package Makefiles should now include
x11.buildlink3.mk instead. This causes the X11 package buildlink3
and builtin logic to be executed at the correct place for buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that previously set USE_X11, and fixes packages
that relied on buildlink3.mk files to implicitly note that X11 is
needed. Package buildlink3.mk should also include x11.buildlink3.mk
when linking against the package libraries requires also linking
against the X11 libraries. Where it was obvious, redundant inclusions
of x11.buildlink3.mk have been removed.
New commands: crop, stats, toggle.
Add relative and exact-time seeking.
Fix a few bugs.
The new "toggle" command is the same as our existing patch for the
"playpause" command - we keep the "playpause" command as an alias
for "toggle".

VERSION 1.2.4:
FEATURES:
* Queue selected tracks shortcut, Ctrl+D. (BR 83675)
BUGFIXES:
* The first engine entry in the config dialog was always blank.
* If you filtered by more than one word in Collection Browser, adding
expandable items (eg: artists or albums) wouldn't work. (BR 100150)
* Updating the collection without any changes being made to it kept
the Update button disabled forever.

from the 1.1.x branch (while being backward compatible), so that
transition from 1.0.x to 1.1.x can be made easier.
when the header files are found. Bump its revision to 1 due to this.
This makes the libao package completely audio-output agnostic.
- Add a libao-macosx package containing the MacOS X plugin (sorry, untested).
- Add a libao-oss package containing the OSS plugin. While here, use
ossaudio.buildlink3.mk to determine the audio device instead of hardcoding
it in a patch.
- Add a libao-macosx package containing the Sun audio plugin (sorry, untested).
Change approved by silence on tech-pkg@ for quite a long time since my
proposal.
I'm doing these changes to cleanup the base libao package. Before these,
it contained a huge conditional to determine when the OSS and/or Sun
plugins were built, which often failed in untested platforms (PLIST
inconsistencies, for example). Having these plugins in independent packages
makes debugging easier, keeps the dependency tree clean and also lets us use
{ONLY,NOT}_FOR_PLATFORM directives to easily say where they work or don't.
and koffice build.
And do in meta-pkgs/kde3/kde3.mk as suggested by maintainer, markd.
It helps with builds on Linux for kdegraphics3, libkipi, gwenview,
kdelibs3, kdebase3, arts, and many other KDE-based packages on Linux.
(It was not needed for kile, but will be used.)
Thank you, Torsten Harenberg for testing many packages such as
kdenetwork, kdegames, kdepim, kdemultimedia.
I still don't know what the correct fix is for PR #25402.

This release brings various bugfixes and small features. Check the
included changelog for details.
And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.

calling SetDeviceName.
The call trace goes something like this:
Synth.C
main() ==> Synth *synth=new Synth; ==> Synth::Synth()
==> MidiDevice::Get()->SetDeviceName(SpiralInfo::MIDIFILE);
SpiralSound/Midi.h
MidiDevice::Get() ==> m_Singleton=new MidiDevice;
==> MidiDevice::MidiDevice() ==> MidiDevice::Open()
==> MidiDevice::SetDeviceName
patches/patch-ao works around this problem by closing the prematurely
opened private variable representing the MIDI device, and setting it to
NULL. MidiDevice methods check for NULL and re-initialize the private
variable, this time opening the MIDI device path after SetDeviceName.

New in this release are small decoding speedups for all platforms,
small encoding speedups in fast (non-LPC) mode, streaming support
in the XMMS plugin, and several bug fixes. For developers there
are also a few additions and changes to the metadata API to make
working with tags easier. See the changelog entry for complete
details. This release actually wasn't supposed to happen so soon,
but needed to be made to fix library naming and build problems in
FLAC 1.1.1 that caused trouble for package maintainers, so unless
you are having trouble with one of the particular bugs that got
fixed in 1.1.2 then there is not much of a need to upgrade.

0.8.6 - January 11, 2005
- Added Polypaudio driver(libao-polyp 0.4)
from Lennart Poettering
- Use esd_close() in the esd driver
- Broaden sample rate tolerance in the OSS driver for nForce
compatibility
Changes between 1.3 and 1.3.1 are:
Fixed Ogg Vorbis length detection on AMD-64
Fixed crash on some invalid MP3s (regression from 1.2 to 1.3) where
corruped tags caused crashes or out of memory errors
Clear the ID3v1 track number when attempting to set it to a value greater
than 255 (8-bit value)
Fixed crash in invalid APE tags where the number of tag items didn't match
up with the number actually present
Added other additional sanity checks to the APE parsing code that should
make it more robust
Fixed Makefile problem that caused the apeitem.h header to not be
installed and made it impossible to use the APE API directly
distmp3 is a client and a daemon (both written in perl) for distributed
mp3-encoding across multiple hosts on a network.
distmp3 can be used standalone or by a front-end CD ripper such as
audio/abcde.
files in the lame source.
And for the audio/lame/Makefile:
Change the LICENSE from fee-based-commercial-use to use this new
lame-license.
The problem before was that fee-based-commercial-use did not exist
and the "make show-license" suggested running pkg_info -d to view
the long-description of the package (which may not be installed yet).
Anyways, the DESCR didn't mention these license issues.
Also bump PKGREVISION.
Notable changes include:
- Improvements in the aRts audio backend.
- Use taglib instead of id3lib to extract ID3 information.
Support for aRts is controlled by a PKG_OPTION and is off by default to
avoid pulling in a huge wad of dependencies.
python*-pth packages into meta-packages which will install the non-pth
packages. Bump PKGREVISIONs on the non-pth versions to propagate the
thread change, but leave the *-pth versions untouched to not affect
existing installations.
Sync all PYTHON_VERSIONS_AFFECTED lines in package Makefiles.
AmaroK is a media player for KDE. There are many media players
around these days, true. What's missing from most players is a user
interface, that doesn't get in the way of the user. How many buttons
do you have to press for simply adding some new tracks to the
playlist? amaroK tries to be a little different, providing a simple
drag and drop interface, that really makes playlist handling easy.
XXX Too much dependencies are thrown in there: create "plugins" packages
or use PKG_OPTIONS framework?
terminatorX is a realtime audio synthesizer that allows you to "scratch"
on digitally sampled audio data (*.wav, *.au, *.ogg, *.mp3, etc.) the way
hiphop-DJs scratch on vinyl records. It features multiple turntables,
realtime effects (buit-in as well as LADSPA plugin effects), a sequencer
and MIDI interface - all accessible through an easy-to-use gtk+ GUI.
Many audio synthesis and recording packages are in use or in
development. These work in many different ways. LADSPA
provides a standard way for `plugin' audio processors to be used with
a wide range of these packages.
For instance, this allows a developer to make a reverb program and
bundle it into a LADSPA `plugin library.' Ordinary users can then use
this reverb within any LADSPA-friendly audio application.
- Fixed a major bug in id3.c that affected linux users with a file not
found error. Also fixed in main.c. Thanks to Sarah Hitchens for
finding/fixing the bug!
- Cleaned up memory leaks in playlist.c and downloadable.c.
- Fixed typo in filename for song_management.c.
* Remove unnecessary patches to strip /usr/local from -L and -I paths.
* Makefile style nits.
* Specify dependency on howl's mDNSResponder in the rc.d script.
Ride the version and PKGREVISION from mjl's commit an hour ago.
Being here, fix a possible problem which was mentioned in conjunction
with CAN-2003-0577 - zero bitrate makes mpg123 assume a negative
frame size.
bump PKGREVISION
* Added support for using the system version of libmikmod
* Added SDL_RWops support for reading Ogg Vorbis files
* Added 4 and 6 channel surround sound output support
* Added support for RMID format MIDI files
* Improved timidity support (reverb, chorus, Roland & Yamaha sysex dumps, etc.)
* Fixed bug with MIDI volume in native Windows playback
* Added SDL_RWops support for reading MOD files
****New features for 2.2 (in no particular order):****
- Theora Video support -
Icecast now supports video streaming via theora. Currently, we require the latest
(alpha 4) version of libtheora. This is an optional compile, so if you don't
have theora then icecast will safely ignore it
- Shoutcast style source client support -
Icecast now supports the connection protocol used by the Shoutcast DSP source
client. This is the same connection protocol used by their NSV encoding tools.
This means that not only can you use the Shoutcast DSP to stream to icecast, but
that you can also stream NSV via their tools.
- AAC is added as a supported streaming format -
Not too many source clients support streaming in this format, but we support it.
- Cluster password -
Now you can specify a cluster password as a <mount> option in the config. This
will allow you to cluster multiple servers/mounts into a single listing on the
stream directory. Note that this is different than "grouping" which groups together
streams coming from the same physical IP and with the same stream name. Clusters
are meant for relays of the same stream and will only be listed *once* in the stream
directory. When a listener tunes into a cluster, they will be served an m3u file
with all the clusters for that stream.
- Playlist Log -
This is an option setting that will create an audit trail of metadata that comes through
icecast. It is a single file that contains information for all mountpoints.
- Range Support for static files -
We now support seeking in files served off the icecast fserve.
- Metadata Update via Admin -
We now support metadata updates via the admin interface for both MP3 AND Ogg Vorbis
streams.
- Per mount hidden stats and YP prevention -
You many now indicate certains mounts to be excluded (i.e. hidden) from the main
status.xsl page. This is useful when using local private relays. You can also
override the YP setting (as in disable) on a per-mount basis. Also useful for
local private relays.
- Multiple example config files -
We now have multiple config files for you to use as a base. A "simple" one for
quick-start, and a more detailed "advanced" one with all the features, as well
as a "shoutcast compatable" one, which shows how you'd config for using the
shoutcast DSP.
- Relay user/pass -
You can now specify authentication used by a relay. This is for the case where
you have listener authentication enabled for a mountpoint, and want to connect
a relay to it.
