Mon Feb 21 07:05:50 UTC 2011 - lnussel@suse.de

- new version 1.13
    * Added support for the ring modulator EFX effect.
    * Duplication of stereo sources (onto side- and rear-channels) in now enabled by default.
      This can still be disabled via alsoft.conf.
    * Support for the new AL_SOFT_loop_points and AL_SOFT_buffer_sub_data extensions.
    * Added the ability to redirect log output to a file, by setting the ALSOFT_LOGFILE environment variable.
    * Improved invalid parameter checks.
    * Better checks against integer overflows when allocating buffer storage.
    * Internal mixer support for 8-, 16-, and 32-bit input formats, improving memory consumption by not converting them all to 32-bit.
    * Improved device-change handling with the PulseAudio backend.
    * All available PulseAudio devices are now enumerated with ALC_ENUMERATE_ALL_EXT.
    * PulseAudio devices again use the periods and period_size config options.
    * Improved stability when PortAudio is enabled.
      The library tends to cause a crash when it's unloaded and reloaded.
    * Added a WaveOut backend for Windows.
    * Added a cubic resampler to replace the cosine resampler.
    * Increased the maximum number of source auxiliary sends to 4, and changed the default to 1.
    * Massive internal changes to the mixer and buffer loading code, designed for future improvements for allowable input and output formats.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Mar 30 08:06:02 UTC 2010 - lnussel@suse.de

- new version 1.12.854
    * Fixed playback when the PulseAudio buffer is calculated to be more than 64KB.
    * Restored compatibility with some older PulseAudio libs.
    * Alternative buffer sizing for PulseAudio, specified using a new config option.
    * Improved buffer size calculations, to prevent drastic latency changes when certain properties (such as ALC_FREQUENCY) are modified.
    * Added capture support for the PortAudio backend.
    * Support for PortAudio under Windows.
    * Added support for the format extensions AL_EXT_MULAW, AL_EXT_MULAW_MCFORMATS, and AL_EXT_DOUBLE.
    * Support for the new ALC_EXT_thread_local_context extension.
    * Improved library load time by delaying backend device probing until needed.
    * Updated alext.h to provide EFX tokens and function types.
    * Unsupported effects and filters are no longer returned by alGetEnumValue.
    * The Wave File Writer device now creates WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE files, to better handle multi-channel and float output.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan 18 08:10:58 UTC 2010 - lnussel@suse.de

- new version 1.11.753
    * Fixed compatibility with newer PulseAudio libs
    * The PulseAudio backend will now be tried first, when available
    * Fixed a crash with the echo effect
    * Configurable resampler, supporting point, linear (default), and
      cosine methods
    * Improved reverb, which now supports the Modulation and Echo
      properties
    * The alsoft/.conf/.ini/rc drivers config option now allows unnamed
      backends to remain available, by ending the device list with a
      comma (,)
    * PulseAudio playback will try to use an output frequency and
      channel format that best matches the default sink If the sink
      device is configured for 5.1 output at 48khz, for example, OpenAL
      Soft will automatically use 5.1 output at 48khz, unless overridden
      in the config file.
    * Multi-channel sounds are now passed through the auxiliary sends
      Although they are down-mixed to mono, losing channel separation.
    * Fixed playback when creating a second context from a device
    * Added a new config option to enable real-time priority when mixing
      for certain backends (ALSA, OSS, Solaris, and DirectSound)
    * Buffers now store 32-bit float sample data internally, to retain
      32-bit sample accuracy
    * Added a new head-dampening config option, for mono and stereo
      playback This slightly filters sounds coming from behind, allowing
      for some subtle differences between front and back sound sources.
    * Added an option to allow spawning the PulseAudio server on demand
    * Support for the new AL_EXT_source_distance_model extension

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Jan  4 15:02:07 UTC 2010 - lnussel@suse.de

- update to current git snapshot

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Dec 18 16:59:34 CET 2009 - jengelh@medozas.de

- add baselibs.conf as a source

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Nov  9 08:32:43 UTC 2009 - lnussel@suse.de

- new version 1.10.622
    * Fixed OSS and PulseAudio backends
    * Support for disconnect notifications with PulseAudio when the
      server connection dies
    * Fixed surround sound channel ordering for PulseAudio playback
    * Fixed 7.1 output
    * Fixed potential crash when setting an AL_EFFECT_NULL effect on
      an auxiliary effect slot
    * Backend libraries are now loaded and released as needed
      In particular, this allows for backends to be added and
      removed at runtime when their corresponding libraries are
      installed and uninstalled (provided support for those backends
      was compiled in). An active backend will remain available as
      long as its in use.
    * Support for multiple contexts per device
    * Fixed possible ghost references on buffers and auxiliary
      slots, if they're attached to sources that are forcibly
      deleted on context destruction
- only actually pulseaudio if at least version 0.9.15

-------------------------------------------------------------------
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

-------------------------------------------------------------------

- 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.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
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
