Fixed bug #895 Markus Rothe 2009-12-07 09:32:46 PST Check if libspe2 is available Building on PowerPC64 results in: [...] In file included from ./src/video/ps3/SDL_ps3events_c.h:33, from ./src/video/ps3/SDL_ps3video.c:32: ./src/video/ps3/SDL_ps3video.h:34:21: error: libspe2.h: No such file or directory In file included from ./src/video/ps3/SDL_ps3events_c.h:33, from ./src/video/ps3/SDL_ps3video.c:32: ./src/video/ps3/SDL_ps3video.h:75: error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before 'spe_context_ptr_t' ./src/video/ps3/SDL_ps3video.c:78: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before 'fb_writer_spu' ./src/video/ps3/SDL_ps3video.c: In function 'PS3_VideoInit': ./src/video/ps3/SDL_ps3video.c:167: error: 'spu_data_t' has no member named 'program' ./src/video/ps3/SDL_ps3video.c:167: error: 'fb_writer_spu' undeclared (first use in this function) [...] The problem is that the ps3 video driver is being build regardless if libspe2 is installed or not. The attached patch fixes this problem. [ Note: The other headers that are being checked for are coming from the linux headers package on powerpc64. As a result these are also available if you're on a generic powerpc64 machine and not a PS3 only. ]

Good values seem to range between 512 and 8192 inclusive, depending on the application and CPU speed.  Smaller values yield faster response time, but can lead to underflow if the application is doing heavy processing and cannot fill the audio buffer in time.  A stereo sample consists of both right and left channels in LR ordering.  Note that the number of samples is directly related to time by the following formula:  ms = (samples*1000)/freq</P
