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.
Before, we were ignoring progress metadata, and we were also updating clients
and db too early with input metadata (right when read from the input, instead of
waiting until playback (speakers) were at that position.
This change adds a complicated async chain of events from when the update is
received.
When pipe playback is started, but no data is written to the pipe, the input
loop would bring the cpu to 100%. This fix limits the loop like it was before
player refactor.
If playback was paused during the very last part of the track, the rest of the
track would be read into the input buffer and the input would be closed. With
this commit the input will not be reopened.
Also allow input_flush to be called with null argument.
The fix in commit 3928ab6 broke resuming from an underrun, since it meant that
pb_resume() would flush the input buffer. With this fix it is possible to call
input_resume(), which will not flush the buffer if the source is already open.
Also renamed some functions in player.c for consistency.
Previously input_metadata_get() would retrieve artwork from the source being
read currently, which might not be the one that triggered the FLAG_METADATA
event. So to fix this the metadata is now read by the input module itself when
the METADATA event happens, and the result is stored with the marker.
The commit also includes a timer so that the input thread does loop forever
if the player never starts reading.
Also some refactoring of metadata + abolish input_metadata_get and
input_quality_get. The latter in an attempt to treat the two in the same way.
