(1) to be multithreaded,
(2) to work on multichannel audio and
(3) to work on 48k and 44.1k audio.
Allow multiple impulse response (IR) files with a new setting: "convolution_ir_files"
When convolution starts, Shairport Sync will look for an IR file with a sample rate
matching the input (44.1k or 48k) and channel count.
If one can't be found, it will look for a single-channel IR file with the same rate.
It will always choose the first match in the file list supplied "convolution_ir_files".
Allow multithreading -- use the "convolution_thread_pool_size" to set the number of threads to use.
Deprecate "convolution" -- use "convolution_enabled" instead.
Deprecate "convolution_max_length" -- use "convolution_max_length_in_seconds" instead.
Deprecate "convolution_ir_file" -- use "convolution_ir_files" instead.
Update corresponding D-Bus methods and properties.
Update the loudness code to work on 48k and well as 44.1k audio and with multichannel audio.
Deprecate "loudness" -- use "loudness_enabled" instead.
Update corresponding D-Bus methods and properties.
Fix a deprecated FFmpeg warning.
Update HiFi-LoFi FFT convolver to latest available.
- 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!
Rename D-Bus LoudnessFilterActive property to Loudness and friends
Update sample D-Bus commands
Add D-Bus convolution filter controls -- enable convolution filters to be turned on and off or changed; enable convolution gain to be checked and changed; fix loudness control.
Fix D-Bus loudness switch silencing output. Rename LoudnessFiulterActive to Loudness. Add Convolution, ConvolutionGain and ConvolutionImpulseResponseFile properties to the D-Bus interface.
Bug fix: correct frame size entry for S24 format
