Subject: Dynamic loading of ALSA
I recently discovered that SDL can dynamically load ESD and aRts, and
made a patch which adds this same functionality to ALSA.
The update for configure.in isn't too good (it should e.g. look for
libasound.so in other directories than /usr/lib), because I'm not too
good at shellscripting and autoconf.
The reason for using dlfcn.h and dlopen instead of SDL_LoadLibrary and
SDL_LoadFunction is that libasound uses versioned symbols, and it is
necessary to load the correct version using dlvsym. This isn't probably
any real portability issue, because ALSA is linux-only.

Subject: Slight bug in ESD and aRts
When I experimented with the ALSA-patch, I found a slight bug in the
Load{ESD,ARTS}Library-functions. The check of whether a function pointer
was correctly loaded looks like this right now:
*esd_functions[i].func = SDL_LoadFunction(esd_handle,
esd_functions[i].name);
if ( ! esd_functions[i].func )
Isn't that supposed to be ( ! *esd_functions[i].func )?

nanosleep because nanosleep may not be portable to all systems
using SDL with the ALSA backend. This may be a moot point with
the switch to blocking writes anyway...

Subject: [SDL] Bug#225252: [PATCH] ALSA fixes
Package: libsdl1.2debian-all
Version: 1.2.6-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
For SDL 1.2.6, the ALSA backend was changed to call snd_pcm_open() with
SND_PCM_NONBLOCK. That's a good idea per se, however, it causes high CPU
usage, interrupted sound and stuttering in some games here. Taking a nanosleep
whenever snd_pcm_writei() returns -EAGAIN fixes this, but I think it's more
efficient to use blocking mode for the actual sound playback. Feedback from the
SDL and ALSA lists appreciated.
The patch also fixes the default ALSA device to be used.

Subject: Re: [SDL] compile problem with sdl <-> alsa
The attathced patch does the trick (although there will have to be code
changes when the alsa 0.9 api get deprecated).
On a side-note, the good news is that using alsa 1.0.0rc1 solves the
previous issues I had with my ac97 via sound chipset.

Fix the sound skip problem which is caused
even if it recover from high load.

Subject: New patches for QNX6
Here my patches for the SDL/QNX:
QNXSDL.diff - diff to non-QNX related sources:
- updated BUGS file, I think QNX6 is now will be officially supported
- configure.in - added shared library support for QNX, and removed dependency between the ALSA and QNX6.
- SDL_audio.c - added QNX NTO sound bootstrap insted of ALSA's.
- SDL_sysaudio.h - the same.
- SDL_nto_audio.c - the same.
- SDL_video.c - right now, QNX doesn't offer any method to obtain pointers to the OpenGL functions by function name, so they must be hardcoded in library, otherwise OpenGL will not be supported.
- testsprite.c - fixed: do not draw vertical red line if we are in non-double-buffered mode.
sdlqnxph.tar.gz - archive of the ./src/video/photon/* . Too many changes in code to make diffs :) :
+ Added stub for support hide/unhide window event
+ Added full YUV overlays support.
+ Added window maximize support.
+ Added mouse wheel events.
+ Added support for some specific key codes in Unicode mode (like ESC).
+ Added more checks to the all memory allocation code.
+ Added SDL_DOUBLEBUF support in all fullscreen modes.
+ Added fallback to window mode, if desired fullscreen mode is not supported.
+ Added stub support for the GL_LoadLibrary and GL_GetProcAddress functions.
+ Added resizable window support without caption.
! Fixed bug in the Ph_EV_EXPOSE event handler, when rectangles to update is 0 and when width or height of the rectangle is 0.
! Fixed bug in the event handler code. Events has not been passed to the window widget handler.
! Fixed codes for Win keys (Super/Hyper/Menu).
! Fixed memory leak, when deallocation palette.
! Fixed palette emulation code bugs.
! Fixed fullscreen and hwsurface handling.
! Fixed CLOSE button bug. First event was passed to the handler, but second terminated the application. Now all events passed to the application correctly.
- Removed all printfs in code, now SDL_SetError used instead of them.
- Disabled ToggleFullScreen function.
README.QNX - updated README.QNX file. Added much more issues.

It contains the following functions:
SDL_LoadObject(), SDL_LoadFunction(), SDL_UnloadObject()
The UNIX esd and arts audio code use these to dynamically load
their respective audio libraries.

Subject: Patches for photon port of SDL
Hi,
A couple more patches for photon and the nto audio. Adds mouse grabbing
support, fixed cursor images, unicode keyboard events (though no unicode
data on kye release, is that a problem?), hopefully fixing some audio
lag problems, and a few other fixes.
Thanks,
Julian Kinraid
