[linux-audio-announce] [ANN]Alsaplayer: new python extension module release, new developers, fftscope release and cvs2svn migration

After the release of the long wanted bugfix Alsaplayer-0.99.77 release last week, I am very pleased to announce the release of a new exiting python module for Alsaplayer. This module is the work of Austin Bingham, a new active developer in the Alsaplayer team. Another developer just joined us, Peter Lemenkov. He is working on some new input plugins, included a wavpack plugin. ################################################## AlsaPlayer is a new type of PCM player. It is heavily multi-threaded and tries to excercise the ALSA library and driver quite a bit. It has some very interesting features unique to Linux/Unix players. The goal is to create a fully pluggable framework for playback of all sorts of media with the focus on PCM audio data. http://www.alsaplayer.org/ ################################################## Austin Bingham made the initial release (0.3) of the new alsaplayer python extension module. This module has dependencies on the boost and python libraries. It will probably move to 1.0 status quickly. A set of python bindings for the alsaplayer libraries. These are written in C++ using boost.python and are intended to provide a minimal level of abstraction over the C libraries. Higher-level abstractions and functionality can then be written purely in python. ################################################## Fftscope-1.0.3, a nice visualization plugin is now officially released. ################################################## To download those 2 new exciting modules: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=249 ################################################# The development team migrated from cvs to svn. The cvs repository will not been updated and will be removed in the near future. Alsaplayer new subversion page: http://sourceforge.net/svn/?group_id=249 Cheers, Dominique
