[Openal-devel] oal-soft

[Xavier Bouchoux]

hi,

I did a little try using open-al soft (latest from git) together with 
the creative router and implementations.

I changed the dll name to "test-soft_oal.dll", and put it next to the exe.
It got discovered and worked perfectly!

A few issues though:
  - the EFX implementation doesn't work very well (I mean it doesn't 
crash, it does kind of work for some settings, but for other settings it 
just makes "scritches" and metallic noises.)

the 5.1 surround works, but I'm being told that:
- rear and front are inverted
- so the center channel doesn't work as the channels are inverted
- there's a little delay in the sounds, approximateley 0.5sec of lag. 
(that is between vision and sound, that is not present with other 
implementations)

I'll try to investigate a bit more when I have some spare time.
