Sun Nov 1 10:08:38 UTC 2009 - lnussel@suse.de
- update to current git snapshot to fix problems with pulseaudio
(bnc#551022)
- disable --as-needed for libopenal.so.0 compatibility library to
force linking against libopenal.so.1
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Oct 29 11:04:51 UTC 2009 - lnussel@suse.de
- new version 1.9.563
* Preliminary support for the new ALC_EXT_disconnect extension.
* Support for 32-bit float playback and capture on some backends
* Proper support for the ALC_FREQUENCY context attribute
* Fixed compatibility with newer PulseAudio libs.
* Fixed parsing of the speaker layout config string.
* Fixed buffer size issues with ALSA capture.
* Fixed a problem where the reported number of processed buffers could be wrong.
* Fixed possible crashes when specifying invalid device pointers.
* Removed the backend-specific period config options, and made it a global option instead.
* Deprecated the refresh config option for the new period_size option.
* Better cleanup of backends when the OpenAL lib is unloaded.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jun 9 07:16:51 UTC 2009 - lnussel@suse.de
- new version 1.8.466
* Support for two more effects: AL_EFFECT_EAXREVERB and AL_EFFECT_ECHO
Not all of the EAXREVERB properties will currently affect the output. More
should be supported in the future
* Improved reverb
* Added a PulseAudio backend
* Improved mixer efficiency a bit
* Improved ALSA playback
* Multiple auxiliary slots supported
Default is four, which can be modified with the config file
* Multiple auxiliary sends supported
Default is two per source, which cannot be increased without recompilation.
The amount can be decreased with the config file

Wed May 6 16:09:16 CEST 2009 - lnussel@suse.de
- new version 1.7.411
* New table-based panning algorithm, allowing the center channel to be included in the mix
* Speaker arrangements are now configurable
* Added a new PortAudio backend
* Some changes to the ALSA device list
Standard enumeration will now only list a single ALSA playback device (for "default"), and there should be no more name clashes preventing a device with the same name from being used
* Low-pass filters now affect multi-channel sources
* Corrections for 6.1 channel placements
* Multi-channel sources are now re-mixed when using a different output mode
This prevents source channels from being lost if there isn't a matching output channel (eg. 5.1 sources on stereo output)
* Multi-channel source gains are now correctly clamped to the source's min/max gains
* The air absorption calculation now uses the correct distance
* The source room rolloff factor can now be set up to 10
* Updated reverb code that better follows the reverb parameters
- add pulseaudio backend from git head and enable by default

Fri Apr 17 10:13:54 CEST 2009 - lnussel@suse.de
- add shlib policy conform provides for libraries
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Jan 9 13:33:32 CET 2009 - lnussel@suse.de
- new version 1.6.372
* Channel volumes are now ramped from source position changes and when starting playback, to help prevent pops and clicks
* The AL_DOPPLER_FACTOR source property works
* Implemented a new Solaris backend for playback
* The openal-info example will now print EFX information
* More EFX compliance fixes
* Support for non-mmap ALSA capture
* A new low-pass filter, based on the I3DL2 specification
* The ALSOFT_CONF environment variable may be used to specify an additional configuration file
* A completely new reverb effect implementation
* Improved CPU use for the DirectSound backend
-------------------------------------------------------------------

- new version 1.5.304
* reduces buffer size to reduce latency
* installs pkg-config file
* better EFX compliance
* fixes doppler shift
* needs less memory in the mixer
