--audio-stream-silence is a shitty feature compensating for awful consumer garbage, that mutes PCM at first to check whether it's compressed audio, using formats advocated and owned by malicious patent troll companies (who spend more money on their lawyers than paying any technicians), wrapped in a wasteful way to make it constant bitrate using a standard whose text is not freely available, and only rude users want it. This feature has been carelessly broken, because it's complicated and stupid. What would Jesus do? If not getting an aneurysm, or pushing over tables with expensive A/V receivers on top of them, he'd probably fix the feature. So let's take inspiration from Jesus Christ himself, and do something as dumb as wasting some of our limited lifetime on this incredibly stupid fucking shit. This is tricky, because state changes like end-of-audio are supposed to be driven by the AO driver, while playing silence precludes this. But it seems code paths for "untimed" AOs can be reused. But there are still problems. For example, underruns will just happen normally (and stop audio streaming), because we don't have a separate heuristic to check whether the buffer is "low enough" (as a consequence of a network stall, but before the audio output itself underruns). |
