annotate docs/man3/SDL_LoadWAV.3 @ 3880:74e828c64315 SDL-1.2

Fixed bug #292 I might be on crack here. It looks like SDL_ConvertMono() in src/audio/SDL_audiocvt.c adds the left and right channels of a stereo stream together, and clamps the new mono channel if it would overflow. Shouldn't it be dividing by 2 to average the two sample points instead of clamping? Otherwise the mono sample point's volume doubles in the conversion. This would also make the conversion faster, as it replaces two branches per sample frame with a bitwise shift. --ryan.

13 If this function succeeds, it returns the given \fI\fBSDL_AudioSpec\fP\fR, filled with the audio data format of the wave data, and sets \fBaudio_buf\fR to a \fBmalloc\fP\&'d buffer containing the audio data, and sets \fBaudio_len\fR to the length of that audio buffer, in bytes\&. You need to free the audio buffer with \fI\fBSDL_FreeWAV\fP\fR when you are done with it\&.

15 This function returns \fBNULL\fP and sets the SDL error message if the wave file cannot be opened, uses an unknown data format, or is corrupt\&. Currently raw, MS-ADPCM and IMA-ADPCM WAVE files are supported\&.
