Activity Earlier In The Year

backend-native: Add backend pointer to transport_data
Marijn Suijten: This removes the inverse/recursive dependency of backend-native on the `pa_bluetooth_discovery` struct, which is supposed to be opaque outside of `bluez5-util` in favour of the many accessor functions defined in `bluez5-util.h`.

bluetooth: add UPower backend
Dylan Van Assche: UPower provides information about the power supply and battery level of the host.

bluetooth: add AT+BIA support
Dylan Van Assche: AT+BIA is used to enable/disable CIND indicators by Bluetooth HFP spec.

shell-completion: add new subcommand get-* for zsh
hashitaku: Added to shell-completion of zsh as there is no completion for the subcommand get-*.

shell-completion: add new subcommand get-* for bash
hashitaku: Added to shell-completion of bash as there is no completion for the subcommand get-*.

tunnel modules: Fix crash when the module was unloaded while waiting for re-init
Georg Chini: When the tunnel modules had no connection and a re-init was pending, the module could be unloaded without cancelling the pending re-init.

module-tunnel: restart module
Craig Howard: Defer the creation of the source/sink until after the TCP connection has been established.

tunnel-source-new: add restart/reconnect logic
Craig Howard: Applies the same changes as to tunnel-sink-new: defer the source creation until after the TCP connection is restablished, then attempt to restart the module on failure.

tunnel-sink-new: reinit module
Craig Howard: When configured, reinitialize the module instead of exiting.

bluetooth: Make sure there is at least one SBC frame to encode
Igor V. Kovalenko: If SBC frame plus RTP header exceeds MTU size, let block size be at least one frame to make sure bluetooth code can make progress reading and writing data.

PulseAudio Release Tags

build-sys: Bump soversion for 16.0 release
Arun Raghavan: Just a minor time smoother 2 related change in libpulse implementation. Part-of: <

bluetooth/gst: Timestamp encoding buffers according to PA clock
Marijn Suijten: Commit c6d6ca541 ("bluetooth/gst: Replace buffer accumulation in adapter with direct pull") removed the `timestamp` parameter from GStreamer transcoders due to being unused, but these should instead be propagated to the GStreamer encoding buffers.

win32: Add DACLs for directories created by system daemon
Patrick Gaskin: Part-of: <

build-sys: Fix a couple of meson warnings
Arun Raghavan: Part-of: <

build-sys: Bump gettext dependency
Arun Raghavan: Needed for distcheck to work with a checked-in pulseaudio.pot.

build-sys: Bump version info for libpulse
Arun Raghavan: Minor implementation change since last release (we now load X11 properties only for SSH connections).

build-sys: autotools: Add meson build files to EXTRA_DIST
Arun Raghavan: As we currently still generate our tarballs using autotools, let's make sure the meson build system is distributed with the tarball.

build-sys: Bump libpulse soversion
Arun Raghavan: We've added new API and updated an enum.

PROTOCOL: Bump to version 33
Arun Raghavan: Required for the addition of new pa_encoding_t values.

Update NEWS for 8.0
Arun Raghavan: ### PulseAudio 8.0 Changes at a glance: - Automatic routing more likely to change profile - OS X and NetBSD support improvements - Systemd journal logging for clients - New LFE balance programming interface - Module-dbus-protocol improvements - More flexible configuration file handling - pulsecore-8.0.so moved to a private directory - New script for measuring memory consumption - Various bug fixes and small improvements Detailed change log:

Most Popular This Year

alsa-mixer: Add analog-input path to TI PCM2902 mappings
Tanu Kaskinen: At least Behringer Xenyx 302USB doesn't have any Mic mixer elements (or indeed any capture mixer elements), so having analog-input-mic as the only input path caused the input mappings to not show up on this sound card.

alsa-profiles: Add NI Komplete Audio 6 MK2 profiles
Josef Haider: Part-of: <
