I have now added the missing stuff: * Improved 5.1 surround channel routing * Automatically switch away from unavailable card profiles * Removed KDE specific routing configuration * New information collection script for bug reports: pa-info * New "fast_adjust_threshold_msec" module argument for module-loopback * module-role-cork and module-role-ducking can now use recording streams as triggers * Added support for non-PCM formats in module-null-sink * More efficient channel remapping in some cases for 32-bit streams * Removed the "latency_time" option from module-null-source * New convenience functions for getting parameters from pa_format_info * New function for pa_threaded_mainloop to run a callback in the mainloop thread without the mainloop lock being held * New build option for improving build reproducibility More elaborate explanations in the wiki, as always: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Notes/13.0/ -- Tanu https://www.patreon.com/tanuk https://liberapay.com/tanuk _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
