AU_DEVOUT(3)		 BSD Library Functions Manual		  AU_DEVOUT(3)

NAME
     AU_DevOut -- agar audio output interface

SYNOPSIS
     #include <agar/au.h>

DESCRIPTION
     The AU_DevOut interface provides basic audio output functionality,	using
     different drivers to interface with different audio systems.

INTERFACE
     AU_DevOut * AU_OpenOut(const char *path, int rate,	int channels)

     void AU_CloseOut(AU_DevOut	*dev)

     int AU_AddChannel(AU_DevOut *dev)

     int AU_DelChannel(AU_DevOut *dev, int channel)

     void AU_WriteFloat(AU_DevOut *dev,	float *data, size_t frames)

     The AU_OpenOut() function opens the specified output device.  The path
     argument should contain the name of the output driver, with optional ar-
     guments in	round brackets.	 For example, `pa' opens the PortAudio output
     driver, if	available.  The	`file(foo.wav)'	argument specifies the "file"
     driver with an output filename argument.  The rate	argument is the	re-
     quested sampling rate in Hz, and channels is the requested	number of
     channels (if the device is	unable to handle those settings, the call will
     fail).  On	success, a device handle is returned.

     AU_CloseOut() closes the specified	output device.

     Every output device has an	associated set of virtual channels, which is
     independent from the number of channels supported by the underlying de-
     vice (software mixing is done if necessary).  The AU_AddChannel() func-
     tion adds a new virtual channel to	the given output device.
     AU_DelChannel() deletes the specified channel.

     The AU_WriteFloat() routine writes	one or more frames to the output de-
     vice.  A single frame should contain one float per	channel.

HISTORY
     The AU(3) library and the AU_DevOut interface first appeared in Agar
     1.5.0.
