Date: Tue, 27 Jul 2004 17:14:00 +0200 From: "Eckhard Stolberg" Subject: Controller names in SDL for Windows I'm working on an Atari 2600 emulator for different systems that uses the SDL. Some time ago someone created an adaptor that lets you use your old Atari controllers with your computer through the USB port. Some of the Atari controllers require special handling by the emulator, so it would be nice, if it would be possible to detect if any of the controllers connected to the computer is this adaptor. SDL would allow that with the SDL_JoystickName function, but unfortunately it doesn't work properly on Windows. On Linux and MacOSX this function returns the name of the controller, but on Windows you'll only get the name of the joystick driver. Most joysticks nowadays use the generic Microsoft driver, so they all return the same name. In an old MSDN article (http://msdn.microsoft.com/archive/default.asp?url=/archive/en-us/dnarinput/html/msdn_extdirect.asp) Microsoft describes how to read out the OEM controller names from the registry. I have implemented this for the SDL controller handler on Windows, and now reading the joystick name works properly there too.

.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The \fBSDL_AudioCVT\fR is used to convert audio data between different formats\&. A \fBSDL_AudioCVT\fR structure is created with the \fI\fBSDL_BuildAudioCVT\fP\fR function, while the actual conversion is done by the \fI\fBSDL_ConvertAudio\fP\fR function\&.
.PP
Many of the fields in the \fBSDL_AudioCVT\fR structure should be considered private and their function will not be discussed here\&.
.IP "\fBUint8 *\fP\fBbuf\fR" 10This points to the audio data that will be used in the conversion\&. It is both the source and the destination, which means the converted audio data overwrites the original data\&. It also means that the converted data may be larger than the original data (if you were converting from 8-bit to 16-bit, for instance), so you must ensure \fBbuf\fR is large enough\&. See below\&.
.IP "\fBint\fP \fBlen\fR" 10This is the length of the original audio data in bytes\&.
.IP "\fBint\fP \fBlen_mult\fR" 10As explained above, the audio buffer needs to be big enough to store the converted data, which may be bigger than the original audio data\&. The length of \fBbuf\fR should be \fBlen\fR*\fBlen_mult\fR\&.
.IP "\fBdouble\fP \fBlen_ratio\fR" 10When you have finished converting your audio data, you need to know how much of your audio buffer is valid\&. \fBlen\fR*\fBlen_ratio\fR is the size of the converted audio data in bytes\&. This is very similar to \fBlen_mult\fR, however when the convert audio data is shorter than the original \fBlen_mult\fR would be 1\&. \fBlen_ratio\fR, on the other hand, would be a fractional number between 0 and 1\&.
