Interface - kodi::audioengine

Detailed Description

Audio engine functions
This interface contains auxiliary functions and classes which allow an addon to play their own individual audio stream in Kodi.

Using kodi::audioengine::CAEStream, a class can be created in this regard, about which the necessary stream data and information are given to Kodi.

Via kodi::audioengine::GetCurrentSinkFormat(), the audio formats currently processed in Kodi can be called up beforehand in order to adapt your own stream to them.

However, the created stream can also differ from this because Kodi changes it to suit it.

Example:

#include <kodi/AudioEngine.h>
 
...
 
kodi::audioengine::AudioEngineFormat format;
if (!kodi::audioengine::GetCurrentSinkFormat(format))
  return false;
 
format.SetDataFormat(AUDIOENGINE_FMT_FLOATP);
format.SetChannelLayout(std::vector<AudioEngineChannel>(AUDIOENGINE_CH_FL, AUDIOENGINE_CH_FR));
 
unsigned int myUsedSampleRate = format.GetSampleRate();
 
...
 
kodi::audioengine::CAEStream* stream = new kodi::audioengine::CAEStream(format, AUDIO_STREAM_AUTOSTART);

---

It has the header #include <kodi/AudioEngine.h> be included to enjoy it.
