* decoder/vorbis: faster tag scanning with ov_test_callback()Rasmus Steinke2009-08-241-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | using ov_test_callback with function CALLBACKS_STREAMONLY will cause scanning to stop after the comment field. ov_open (and ov_test) default to CALLBACKS_DEFAULT which scans the file structure causing a huge slowdown. The speed improvement is huge: It scanned my files around 10x faster This procedure has been recommended by monthy (main vorbis developer) and was said to be safe for scanning files.
* update: don't re-read unchanged container filesIgor Kuzmin2009-08-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | MPD checks if every flac (possibly other types as well) file contains cuesheet on every update, which produces unneeded I/O. My music collection is on NFS share, so it's quite noticeable. IMHO, it shouldn't re-read unchanged files, so I wrote simple patch to fix it.
* output_init: initialize the "pause" flagMax Kellermann2009-08-181-0/+2
| | | | Fix stuttering due to uninitialized variable.

* output/shout: minimize the unpause latencyMax Kellermann2009-08-141-0/+1
| | | | | During the pause loop, manually sleep for 500ms if shout_delay() returns a value greater than that. Don't exhaust libshout's buffer.
* output: fixed shout stuck pause bugMax Kellermann2009-08-141-0/+2
| | | | | | Explicitly make the output thread leave the ao_pause() loop. This patch is a workaround, and the "pause" flag is not managed in a thread-safe way, but that's good enough for now.
* directory: free empty directories after removing them (memleak)Max Kellermann2009-08-141-0/+1
| | | | | dirvec_delete() does not free the object, we have to call directory_free() afterwards.
* update: free temporary string in container scan (memleak)Max Kellermann2009-08-141-0/+1
| | | | The return value of map_directory_child_fs() must be freed.
* decoder/flac: don't allocate cuesheet twice (memleak)Max Kellermann2009-08-141-0/+1
| | | | | | | The function flac_cue_track() first calls FLAC__metadata_object_new(), then overwrites this pointer with FLAC__metadata_get_cuesheet(). This allocate two FLAC__StreamMetadata objects, but the first pointer is lost, and never freed.
* update: free empty path string (memleak)Max Kellermann2009-08-141-0/+1
| | | | | When you pass an empty string to directory_update_init(), it was not freed by update_task().
* decoder/flac: parse all replaygain tagsMax Kellermann2009-07-221-0/+1
| | | | | The FLAC replaygain parser used the "||" operator. This made the code stop after the first value which was found.
* mad: skip ID3 frames when libid3tag is disabledMax Kellermann2009-07-221-0/+2
| | | | | | | When libid3tag is disabled, the libmad decoder plugin is unable to identify ID3 frames. If the file starts with an (unidentified) ID3 frame, it assumes that the file is not a valid MP3 song. This patch solves this by adding minimal stubs for the ID3 functions.
* ape: added protection against large memory allocationsMax Kellermann2009-07-191-0/+1
| | | | | | The function tag_ape_load() retrieves a 32 bit unsigned integer from the input file, and passes it to g_malloc(). This is dangerous, and may be used for a denial of service attack on MPD.
* ape: check the tag size (fixes integer underflow)Max Kellermann2009-07-181-0/+2
| | | | | | | The expression "tagLen - size > 0" may result in an integer underflow and a buffer overflow, when "size" is larger than "tagLen". "size" is read from the input file, and must not be trusted. This patch changes the expression to "tagLen > size", which is a lot safer.

* decoder/flac: fix assertion failure in tag_free() callMax Kellermann2009-07-061-0/+2
| | | | | | Initialize flac_data.tag right after flac_data_init(). This way, the "goto fail" won't jump to the point where tag_free(NULL) can be called.
* output/httpd: include sys/types.hMax Kellermann2009-07-061-0/+2
| | | | | | On Mac OS X, the httpd plugin cannot be compiled, because OS X's system headers do nto include sys/types.h, although they use u_int32_t.
* log: fix double free() bug during shutdownMax Kellermann2009-07-051-0/+1
| | | | | Don't free an internal configuration value in log_init(). Call config_get_path() instead of manually calling parsePath().
* database: fixed NULL pointer dereference after charset changeMax Kellermann2009-06-301-0/+1
| | | | | | | When the filesystem_charset is changed in mpd.conf, MPD should discard the old database. In this error branch, MPD did not fill the GError object properly, and logged a warning message instead, which caused a segmentation fault.
* output_all: don't resume playback when stopping during pauseMax Kellermann2009-06-291-0/+2
| | | | | | | | When MPD was paused, and the client sent the "stop" command (or "clear"), a glitch caused MPD to continue playback for a split second. This was because audio_output_all_cancel() calls audio_output_all_update(), which reopens all output devices, and re-ignites the playback loop.

* listen: bind() failure on secondary address is non-fatalMax Kellermann2009-06-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | Several users had problems with binding MPD to "localhost". The cause was duplicate /etc/hosts entries: the resolver library returns 127.0.0.1 twice, and of course, MPD attempts to bind to "both" of them. This patch makes failures non-fatal, given that at least one address was bound successfully. This is a workaround; users should rather fix their /etc/hosts file.
* alsa_mixer: add mixer_index optionDaniel Kahn Gillmor2009-04-281-0/+2
| | | | This allows you to select controls with duplicate names.
* curl: moved proxy settings to "input" blockMax Kellermann2009-04-251-0/+1
| | | | | The old global settings "http_proxy_host", "http_proxy_port", "http_proxy_user" and "http_proxy_password" continue to work.
* player_thread: pause when all audio outputs fail to playMax Kellermann2009-04-251-0/+1
| | | | | | When all audio outputs have been closed due to failures, pause the playback instead of stopping it. This way, the user may resume at the current position after the problem has been dealt with.
* NEWS: flagged some new features "experimental"Max Kellermann2009-04-021-2/+3
| | | | | | | | The "lastfm" input plugin is far from complete, because MPD does not support nesting playlists yet. The "fluidsynth" decoder plugin suffers from shortcomings in the libfluidsynth library: http://www.mail-archive.com/fluid-dev@nongnu.org/msg01099.html

* pcm_resample: choose the fallback resampler at runtimeMax Kellermann2009-03-141-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | Even if libsamplerate support is enabled, compile the fallback resampler. When the user specifies the option "samplerate_converter=internal", it is chosen in favor of libsamplerate. This may help users with a weak FPU who don't want to compile a custom MPD from source, because the fallback resampler does not use floating point operations.
* player_thread: fill buffer after seekingMax Kellermann2009-03-101-0/+1
| | | | | | After a seek, wait until enough new chunks are decoded before starting playback. If this takes too long, send silence chunks to the audio outputs meanwhile.
* output_thread: wait 10 seconds before reopening after play failureMax Kellermann2009-03-091-0/+1
| | | | | | This is similar to the MPD 0.14 patch "wait 10 seconds before reopening a failed device", which only covered open() failures. This patch adds the same feature for play().
* alsa: better period_time default value for high sample ratesMax Kellermann2009-03-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The default values for buffer_time and period_time were both capped by the hardware limits on practically all chips. The result was a period_time which was half as big as the buffer_time. On some chips, this led to lots of underruns when using a high sample rate (192 kHz), because MPD had very little time to send new samples to ALSA. A period time which is one fourth of the buffer time turned out to be much better. If no period_time is configured, see how much buffer_time the hardware accepts, and try to configure one fourth of it as period_time, instead of hard-coding the default period_time value. This is yet another attempt to provide a solution which is valid for all sound chips. Using the SND_PCM_NONBLOCK flag also seemed to solve the underruns, but put a lot more CPU load to MPD.

* input_lastfm: new input plugin for last.fm radioMax Kellermann2009-03-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | The lastfm input plugin enables MPD to play lastfm:// URLs. This plugin is not complete yet: it plays only the first song in the last.fm playlist, and the playlist parser isn't even implemented properly.
* tag_id3: parse ID3 tags in RIFF/WAV filesMax Kellermann2009-03-021-0/+1
| | | | | Added a small RIFF parser library. Look for an "id3" chunk, and let libid3tag parse it.
* audio_format: allow 32 bit samplesMax Kellermann2009-03-021-0/+1
| | | | | | This is the first patch in a series to enable 32 bit audio samples in MPD. 32 bit samples are more tricky than 24 bit samples, because the integer may overflow when you operate on a sample.
* flac: parse stream tagsMax Kellermann2009-03-011-0/+1
| | | | | Parse the vorbis comments in libflac's metadata_callback and pass them as tag struct to the decoder API.
* audiofile: added 24 bit supportMax Kellermann2009-03-011-0/+1
| | | | | Don't hard code the "bits" parameter to 16. Try to use the input's sample format, if possible.
* output: added option to disable audio outputs by defaultMax Kellermann2009-02-281-0/+1
| | | | | The option "enabled" is on by default. If you specify "enabled no" in an audio_output section, then this device is disabled by default.
* pipe: new audio output plugin which runs a commandMichal Nazarewicz2009-02-281-0/+1
| | | | [mk: adapted to new output plugin API]
* listen: allocate sockaddr_storage struct for accept()Max Kellermann2009-02-281-0/+1
| | | | | | The generic sockaddr struct is too small for some addresses. For accept(), we have to allocate a sockaddr_storage struct on the stack, which is large enough for all addresses.
