  • Steam Deck bluetooth codecs supported?

    AptX Low-Latency support is possible with a software update or software mod, source: https://github.com/pali/libopenaptx/issues/1
  • License compatibility of libopenaptx and fdk-aac with openSUSE
    2 projects | /r/openSUSE | 7 Jul 2021
    Background: I use Tumbleweed for audio recording/production among other general use cases. This lead me to manually switch to pipewire before it was made the default recently. During my research before making the switch I learned that the pipewire packaged in openSUSE does not support aptx and AAC bluetooth codecs because dependencies libopenaptx (https://github.com/pali/libopenaptx) and fdk-aac (https://github.com/mstorsjo/fdk-aac) are missing. I believe LDAC support works despite it sometimes being referred to as "nonfree" due to libldac being packaged with openSUSE, but I have not confirmed this. Support for aptx is important to me so I installed the version from packman which is compiled with support for these codecs. However, this got me wondering if it is possible to provide aptx and AAC in openSUSE without needing to install it through packman.

    And that's PNG, for reading something more hard to come by, like OggVorbis, there's just one tiny mid-level library called libvorbis. (btw does anyone know a working email of the maintainer of that package, I have an update for that too)
  • Should raw library bindings drop the namespace prefix?
    5 projects | /r/haskell | 11 Dec 2022
    For context, I have written complete bindings to five different C libraries (freetype2, libvorbis, libspng, al, Chipmunk2D) and the question in the title may very well be the last one I have concerning FFI for quite some time. The question originates from the fact that chiphunk strips prefixes, something no other low-level library I've seen does.
  • Managing structs within low-level FFI bindings
    2 projects | /r/haskell | 15 May 2022
    Over the past few years I've written several low-level bindings: freetype2 (actually on Hackage), libvorbis (still waiting for a review on that one) and libpng (package name for that is free, I've just never submitted anything to Hackage myself).
