NAME

       roar_simple_new_stream, roar_simple_new_stream_obj - Create a new stream via RoarAudio

SYNOPSIS

       #include <roaraudio.h>

       int roar_simple_new_stream(struct roar_connection * con, int rate, int channels, int bits, int codec, int dir);

       int roar_simple_new_stream_obj(struct roar_connection * con, struct roar_stream * s, int rate, int channels, int bits, int codec, int dir);

DESCRIPTION

       Opens  a new stream to the sound server as a independet file handle (not an execed one). This is useful if you still want some meta data or
       the volume to be updated after the stream is open.

       This functions are marked obsolete and will be removed in later releases.  Please upgrade to VS API. See roar_vs_new_simple(3).

PARAMETERS

       con    The "parent" connection. This is a valid open control connection as opend via roar_simple_connect(3).

       s      The stream object to be updated to corresponde to the new stream. This is useful if use want to update  some  meta  data	after  the
	      stream has be opened as you can use all controll commands on this object.

       rate, channels, bits, codec
	      For an explanation on these parameters see roar_simple_play(3).

       dir    For an explanation on this parameter see roar_simple_stream(3).

RETURN VALUE

       On success these calls return a new filehandle.	On error, -1 is returned.

EXAMPLES

       An example of the use of roar_simple_new_stream_obj() can be found on roarvorbis(1) code.

NAME

       roar_simple_play,  roar_simple_monitor,	roar_simple_record,  roar_simple_filter  - Simple playback, monetoring, recording or filtering via
       RoarAudio

SYNOPSIS

       #include <roaraudio.h>

       int roar_simple_play(int rate, int channels, int bits, int codec, char * server, char * name);

       int roar_simple_monitor(int rate, int channels, int bits, int codec, char * server, char * name);

       int roar_simple_record(int rate, int channels, int bits, int codec, char * server, char * name);

       int roar_simple_filter(int rate, int channels, int bits, int codec, char * server, char * name);

DESCRIPTION

       Open a connection to the roard(1) and creates a new stream for playback, monetoring, recording or filtering.  After you are done  you  need
       to close the connection via roar_simple_close(3).  In case you just don't do anything with the stream the server will kick your connection,
       or, in case of playback warns the user about underruns.

       All those functions are marked obsolete and will be removed soon.  Please upgrade to VS API. See roar_vs_new_simple(3).

PARAMETERS

       rate   The sample rate of the stream.

       channels
	      The nummber of channels in the stream.

       bits   The number of bits per sample of the stream.  Commen values are 8 and 16.

       codec  The Codec of the data you stream to the server.  This has nothing to do with codec of the file you are  playing  back  or  encoding.
	      Default (ROAR_CODEC_DEFAULT) is ROAR_CODEC_PCM_S_BE for signed PCM in big endian.

       server The name of the server. A value of NULL (common case) is used to try default locations.

       name   The  name of the process opening this stream to be listend in the servers meta data.  Should normaly be the name of the player with-
	      out any path or filename being played.  If NULL an internal default is used.

NOTES ON FILTER STREAMS

       Filtering streams should not expected to work with diffrent audio data than  the  server  works	with.	You  should  get  the  values  via
       roar_server_oinfo(3) before opening the stream.

RETURN VALUE

       On success these calls return a filehandle for the stream.  On error, -1 is returned.

EXAMPLES

       Examples  of  these calls are the tools roarcat(1), roarmon(1), roarrec(1) and roarfilt(1).  Just look at there code. They aren't that com-
       plex.
