1. check_classic_mac_basic.yml — update to latest macOS-latest
2. docker-on-push-tag-or-pr — dependant updates
3. FFTConvolver — fix a compilation warning when the DEBUG flag is turned off
4. Reorganise some source files — e.g. move most of the metadata stuff into a subdirectory
5. Remove unused special-purpose AirPlay 2 RC event handler.
6. Reorganise source files and source code relating to the standard event handler.
7. Check configuration settings a little more carefully to offer more meaningful diagnostics.
8. Add password to AirPlay 2 and reorganise initialisation to set AirPlay 2 flags accordingly. Also, remove redundant airplay_pin.
9. Remove redundant debug facility definitions from common.h
10. Make it possible to omit all the dacp stuff from a build.
11. Make it possible to omit metadata multicast from a build.
12. Add AP2-native metadata by setting bit 50 of features to true.
13. Improve stability when pre-empting an existing play session.
14. Fix a few compiler warnings in the pair_ap library.
15. Ensure that the audio format is known before starting synchronisation.
16. Improve handle_configure to set/clear a new config setting. Doesn’t seem to do anything…
17. Experimentally turn off bit 46 of AirPlay 2 features — seems to stop failing pair-verify attempts.
- 48,000 frames per second operation,
- 48k lossless stereo, 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound
- Multichannel and multi rate operation on ALSA, PipeWire, PulseAudio, FreeBSD, stdout and unix pipe output backends.
Automatic, flexible and controllable output format (rate, sample format and channel count) selection.
Full FFmpeg integration to support transcoding, resampling, and new audio formats.
Better operation on lower powered devices down to e.g. Raspberry Pi B.
Reduced Docker image sizes with a slimmed-down FFmpeg library.
Enhanced timestamp handling for better synchronization.
Improved the sync error calculation.
A new "vernier" resampling and interpolation method for low-power CPUs.
Bug fixes and minor enhancements.
Note -- there are many breaking changes from previous versions of Shairport Sync!
Perl script is removed in favour of C. Stale documentation and initfiles
are removed for now also.
C interface works, but still needs work (for example, mDNS is missing) -
see TODO.
