Updated daemon documentation with info on the new driver patch to remove unsupported non-interleved access that enables compatibility with JACK audio.
Changed default daemon configuration file to use a TIC frame size of 64 to enable configuring an ALSA period compatible with JACk audio.
Updated daemon version to 1.2.
The following changes enable support for RTCP client persistent connections used to receive RTSP server ANNOUNCE messages. These in turn update the remote sources in the Browser.
- added new process static method to RtspClient class to receive and update source SDP files via DESCRIBE and ANNOUNCE methods. This method can handle persistent connections with the RTSP server and triggers an observer callback when a source SDP file is received or updated. A map is used to track all active RTSP clients.
- added new stop and stop_all static methods to RtspClient class respectively to stop a specific RTCP client and to stop all clients.
- modified MDNSClient class to call RtspClient::process method when a new Ravenna service is added and the RtspClient::stop method when a service is removed. The RtspClient::stop_all method is called when the daemon terminates.
- modified Browser class to receive and handle remote RTSP sources SDP file add and change notifications. This class receives the updates via the RtspClient observer callback
- updated documentation
- mDNS advertisement for all local Sources is implemented by mdns_server.[cpp,hpp] and based on Linux Avahi.
- RTSP server implementation supports DESCRIBE method to return SDP of local Sources and supports persistent connection but doesn't provide service updates via UPDATE method.
- Modified RTSP client to browse for _ravenna_session subtype of _rtsp._tcp services only.
- Modified SAP and mDNS discovery to avoid returning local Sources advertised by the daemon.
- Added "rtsp_port" and "node_id" config parameters.
- rtsp_port is a read/write parameter that contains the port of the RTSP server.
- node_id is a read only parameter that contains the unique daemon identifier used in mDNS and SAP sources announcements.
- Modified session manager to check that every Source and Sink created by the user has a unique name.
- Modified WebUI to visualize node_id and to visualize and edit rtsp_port parameters in Config tab.
- Extended regression test to verify proper behaviour of mDNS/RTSP sources advertisement and discovery.
- Modified REST API to browse remote sources to allow browsing of SAP, mDNS and all sources via HTTP GET /api/browse/sources/[all|mdns|sap].
- Amended daemon documentation.
Added to the WebUI the possibility to directly select a remote source SDP file for a Sink.
