The idea for this jukebox is to abstract away most of the OpenAL ends of audio
streaming by using class inheritance and overloaded methods. In order to add
new audio formats to this system, simply inherit from the source class,
overload the method long read(ALuint buffer) to load the correct frequency,
format, and data into a buffer, and that's it.
To use the jukebox, run the following (where $ is a shell input)
$ ./bin/main /path/to/audio/file
In order to build this project, the following libraries are necessary:
- OpenAL Soft (alhough Hard will work as well)
- Ogg
- Vorbis file
After installing the above libraries, run the following to build the jukebox.
$ make
Enjoy.
- Automatic source selection by file format & suffix
- Better thread management
- More File formats
