Hi Experts.<br /><div id="sig_upper"><br />For my small multimedia audio project i wanna use mplayer as external decoder.<br />As usually via pipe , for example so<br />mplayer&#160; -af resample=44100:0:1,channels=2,format=s16le&#160; -ao pcm:nowaveheader:file=/dev/stdout -quiet -really-quiet&#160; 'saund_file.ext'&#160; |&#160; nextprog -options ...<br />or so<br />http://martini.pudele.com/radio/programming/audio/mplayerdecso01.c<br /><br />I prefer output to pipe, not FIFO.<br /><br />It seems that mplayer also all messages put to stdout :(<br />If i run mplayer without options -quiet and -really-quiet and sound output to stdout , i become<br />music mixed with white noise , if&#160; message length "A:&#160; 14.8 (14.8) of 189.0 (03:09.0)&#160; 1.1%"<br />is not N x 2 !<br />If&#160; message length is is N x 2 but not M x 4, then stereo channels are swapped :D<br />Is mplayer really absolutley quiet with options -quiet and -really-quiet ?<br />Is mplayer also absolutley quiet if sound file/frame/tag/whatever is corrupt ?<br />How i can be 100% sure ?<br /><br />Is it possible all mplayer's info message function calls , printf(), puts(), putch(), to replace with<br />fprintf(stderr, ... ) ,<br />or <br />#define&#160; puts( ss )&#160; fprintf(stderr, ss ) ?<br /><br />Is here another decoder progs/libs with easy-to-use C API ?<br /><br />Tnx in advance @ all<br /><br />Alfs Kurmis<br /> <br /> <br /> ----</div><br /> <div id="sig_lower">&#160;</div>
