Roku SoundBridge devices can be treated as dumb speakers; they offer a
texted based protocol, RCP, that allows the server to request the Roku
device to connect to the server's stream.mp3 and provides ability to
control volume
Roku devices appear as speakers automatically via mDNS announcements on
the server _roku-rcp._tcp
Replacing the antlr parsers solves multiple issues:
- Build warnings (issue #307)
- Build hacks: "-Xconversiontimeout 30000" and other Makefile magic
- Incorrect parsing of daap queries with sql wildcards (like 'tag:*tes%t_ng*')
- Infinite recursion/memory/CPU (issue #570 and #1248)
- systemd service file workarounds due to memory/CPU issue
- ANTLR3 being replaced with ANTLR4 (that doesn't support C file generation)
- Runtime dependency on antlr library
- Difficult installs of ANTLR3 on some systems (special install script)
Select use of either libspotify or librespot-c as streaming backend via config
option.
librespot-c (renamed/improved spotifyc) impl has the following:
- sync interface
- seek support
- honor bitrate config, set client and thread name
- use web access token with "streaming" scope for login
- fix issue with podcast playback
Also say goodbye to file-based Spotify login.
Includes
- Implementation in src/outputs/airplays2, type OUTPUT_TYPE_AIRPLAY
- Homekit pairing, both normal (with PIN) and transient
- New session startup sequence, incl GET /info, SETPEERS and 2 x SETUP
- No more OPTIONS and ANNOUNCE
- Use POST /feedback for keepalive instead of SET_PARAMETERS
- Sequence dispatching instead of callback chains
- Continue despite "Bad request" to SET_PARAMETER (volume)
- Opening of event connection to receiver (reverse rtsp connection)
Still to be done
- Password authentication
- Handling of events
This adds a new settings component for user configurable options that
can be changed through the JSON API.
The settings are stored in the admin db table and not in the conf-file.
- also change how speakers are saved/retrieved from the db
- add generic authorization methods in outputs.c and player.c
- let filescanner read *.verification files (containing PIN)
- configure options to enable and disable, since libsodium is required
* [config] Added support for libav/ffmpeg dual installs
Reordered CPPFLAGS/LIBS so that library flags (includes etc) appear
ahead of prefix/global directives and the correct headers/libraries
are checked (if symbols are defined in alternative libraries).
Updated libav checks to use header declaration checks
rather than link checks (so differences between
libav/ffmpeg can be correctly found), and updated code references
to use new defines. Added support the alternate pkg-config
package names for libav. Updated ffmpeg vs libav check
to check MICRO version number (>=100 for ffmpeg). Simplified
resulting configure script by using a function to merge
CPPFLAGS variables.
* [config] Use FORKED_OPTS prefix for libevent_pthreads option
* [config] Add --with-libav option to select libav even if ffmpeg present
Added configure checks needed to detect missing functions on OSX
Added compat clock functions using clock_get_time on OSX
Added compat timer functions using clock_gettime and setitimer on OSX
Added byteswap functions on OSX
"library" thread
- Implement filescanner as a library_source
- Add library source implementation for spotify
- Move process_media_info to library with small adjustments:
- Remove dependency to F_SCAN_TYPE defines
- Pass data_kind as parameter
- Pass media_kind and compilation as parameter if a source forces a
specific value for these
- Move declaration of scan_ffmpeg to library; add
library_add_playlist_info to library
- Added custom checks for libraries and pkgconfig modules that test library
presence with additional checks for use of headers and functions with
given options. Also support correct additional feature library checks
using provided flags.
- Added custom enable/disable feature macros to simplify their use.
- Use custom CFLAGS and LIBS variables for Makefiles to simplify maintenance.
- Update many feature checks from platform to function.
- Streamline many function checks.
- Correctly check gnutls, gcrypt and gpg-error libraries.
- Fix chromecast and spotify config and compile on FreeBSD
- Added inotify, signalfd and kqueue, and byte swap checks.
- Many clarifications of error messages.
- Correct json-c checks to properly use supplied CFLAGS.
- Correct many quoting inconsistencies
- Use __DATE__ in place of BUILDDATE
- Use full path for gperf and antlr3
- Remove unnecessary CFLAGS
- Added tests for pthread_setname_np parameters
- Added tests for clock_gettime and timer_settime
- Added tests for time.h
- Test if pthread, dl and rt libs are required/available.
- Updated checks for libunistring
Added a real config.rpath
Fixed build date calc for BSD
Require some needed headers at configure time
Correctly check libav functions using pkg-config flags
Made checks for some Linux features available on other ports
Fixed porting issue with antlr dep files
Added default HOST_NAME_MAX if not defined
Added missing libav header
Updated configure to allow gperf/antlr to be missing if products are
in distribution (allows option of building w/o those tools)
Removed circular dependency of antlr products on clean
Added missing ffmpeg-compat.h header (correct dist)
Include gperf/antlr products in dist
gperf/antlr products removed with maintainer-clean
Support vpath builds, distcheck passes
Added support for non-verbose builds
