11 Implemented a C based 6-point Sinc-Lanczos resampler.
13 Implemented B-Format output support for the wave file writer. This creates
14 FuMa-style first-order Ambisonics wave files (AMB format).
16 Implemented a stereo-mode config option for treating stereo modes as either
17 speakers or headphones.
19 Implemented per-device configuration options.
21 Fixed handling of PulseAudio and MMDevAPI devices that have identical
24 Fixed a potential lockup when stopping playback of suspended PulseAudio devices.
26 Fixed logging of Unicode characters on Windows.
28 Fixed 5.1 surround sound channels. By default it will now use the side
29 channels for the surround output. A configuration using rear channels is
32 Fixed the QSA backend potentially altering the capture format.
34 Fixed detecting MMDevAPI's default device.
36 Fixed returning the default capture device name.
38 Fixed mixing property calculations when deferring context updates.
40 Altered the behavior of alcSuspendContext and alcProcessContext to better
41 match certain Windows drivers.
43 Altered the panning algorithm for better side and back positioning cues
44 with surround sound output.
46 Improved support for certain older Windows apps.
48 Improved the alffplay example to support surround sound streams.
50 Improved support for building as a sub-project.
52 Added a toolchain to help with cross-compiling to Android.
56 Implemented EFX Chorus, Flanger, Distortion, Equalizer, and Compressor
59 Implemented high-pass and band-pass EFX filters.
61 Implemented the high-pass filter for the EAXReverb effect.
63 Implemented SSE2 and SSE4.1 linear resamplers.
65 Implemented Neon-enhanced non-HRTF mixers.
67 Implemented a QSA backend, for QNX.
69 Implemented the ALC_SOFT_pause_device, AL_SOFT_deferred_updates,
70 AL_SOFT_block_alignment, AL_SOFT_MSADPCM, and AL_SOFT_source_length
73 Fixed resetting mmdevapi backend devices.
75 Fixed clamping when converting 32-bit float samples to integer.
77 Fixed modulation range in the Modulator effect.
79 Several fixes for the OpenSL playback backend.
81 Fixed device specifier names that have Unicode characters on Windows.
83 Added support for filenames and paths with Unicode (UTF-8) characters on
86 Added support for alsoft.conf config files found in XDG Base Directory
87 Specification locations (XDG_CONFIG_DIRS and XDG_CONFIG_HOME, or their
88 defaults) on non-Windows systems.
90 Added a GUI configuration utility (requires Qt 4.8).
92 Added support for environment variable expansion in config options (not
93 keys or section names).
95 Added an example that uses SDL2 and ffmpeg.
97 Modified examples to use SDL_sound.
99 Modified CMake config option names for better sorting.
101 HRTF data sets specified in the hrtf_tables config option may now be
102 relative or absolute filenames.
104 Made the default HRTF data set an external file, and added a data set for
105 48khz playback in addition to 44.1khz.
107 Added support for C11 atomic methods.
109 Improved support for some non-GNU build systems.
113 Fixed a regression with retrieving the source's AL_GAIN property.
117 Fixed device enumeration with the OSS backend.
119 Reorganized internal mixing logic, so unneeded steps can potentially be
120 skipped for better performance.
122 Removed the lookup table for calculating the mixing pans. The panning is
123 now calculated directly for better precision.
125 Improved the panning of stereo source channels when using stereo output.
127 Improved source filter quality on send paths.
129 Added a config option to allow PulseAudio to move streams between devices.
131 The PulseAudio backend will now attempt to spawn a server by default.
133 Added a workaround for a DirectSound bug relating to float32 output.
135 Added SSE-based mixers, for HRTF and non-HRTF mixing.
137 Added support for the new AL_SOFT_source_latency extension.
139 Improved ALSA capture by avoiding an extra buffer when using sizes
140 supported by the underlying device.
142 Improved the makehrtf utility to support new options and input formats.
144 Modified the CFLAGS declared in the pkg-config file so the "AL/" portion of
145 the header includes can optionally be omitted.
147 Added a couple example code programs to show how to apply reverb, and
150 The configuration sample is now installed into the share/openal/ directory
151 instead of /etc/openal.
153 The configuration sample now gets installed by default.
