Testing audio engine ActiveAE - FernetMenta - 2013-08-01
Today we have merged a new audio engine ActiveAE. We tried to put all we have learned from SoftAE into a new desing. Currently ActiveAE is optional and can be activated by setting environment variable AE_ENGINE=ACTIVE on Linux and Windows systems.
Those are interested in testing, please post you findings here.
ONLY POST IN THIS THREAD IF YOU ARE WILLING TO BE A TESTER, CAN BUILD YOURSELF AND GIVE PROPER FEEDBACK (debug logs, etc)
WINDOWS and LINUX only.
How to provide you can read that here: Debug Log

Is it only for Linux and Windows? Willing to test, but only running ATV2 and Mac systems.

@FernetMenta,
Do you mean setting the OS level environment variable, or by setting this in advancedsettings.xml?
RE: Testing audio engine ActiveAE - wsnipex - 2013-08-02
OS level. e.g. on linux: AE_ENGINE=ACTIVE xbmc
or set it in /etc/environment

Was just hopeful.

If I work out (or someone can just tell me) how to add the variable to openelec I will compile some test builds.
RE: Testing audio engine ActiveAE - FernetMenta - 2013-08-03
OE Gotham builds have this by default.
RE: Testing audio engine ActiveAE - charlie0440 - 2013-08-04
Not had a chance to test it properly yet but so far so good. Here are some OE Generic master Gotham builds:
OE git 04987647c7
PVR-addons git 5b20fa5ce1
XBMC master git 1fe1224fc57 (I believe PVR is broken in this build)

so a newer build:
OE git 04987647c7
PVR-addons git 5b20fa5ce1
XBMC master git c33d66c967

Hi Chgarlie0440,
sorry for the noob question.
i have installed your Build and want to test the activeAE, do i have to enable it or is it already enabled in your build?
cheers

@FernetMenta
gave ActiveAE a try today. The only thing I noticed so far is that vizualisations seem to be dead - at least on windows. Will do more tests on my HTPC (tested this on my workstation on a clean install)
RE: Testing audio engine ActiveAE - WiSo - 2013-08-05
Same here. Reason seems to be:
void CActiveAEStream::RegisterAudioCallback(IAudioCallback* pCallback)
{
}

RE: Testing audio engine ActiveAE - erhnam - 2013-08-10
FernetMenta, are there any plans or is there a timeline to replace the old audioengine and to use activeae by default?
