Date: Mon, 02 May 2005 04:23:16 -0500 From: Jonathan Atkins Subject: Re: [PATCH] *CRITICAL* 8bit direct RGB palette not being created I think that SDL_AllocFormat should create the palette for all 8bit surfaces. And when the RGBAmasks match the normal 3:3:2:0 we need to apply the old behavior. If the mask doesn't match that, then we need to make the right palette assuming the masks are valid (I don't think we validate any masks for high color surfaces...so we wouldn't here) Then there's always a palette available for the 8bit surfaces. This restores the normal behavior and allows for masks to create palettes automatically for odd masks even, which would be a neato thing to have in there, as SDL never did this before.

.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\&.
