SDL_mixer is a simple multi-channel audio mixer. It supports 8 channels of 16 bit stereo audio, plus a single channel of music, mixed by the popular MikMod MOD, Timidity MIDI, Ogg Vorbis, and SMPEG MP3 libraries.
Information regarding Project Releases and Project Resources. Note that the information here is a quote from Freecode.com page, and the downloads themselves may not be hosted on OSDN.
An initialization error was fixed. Crashes that occurred if the MikMod library is not available were fixed. A bug with loading multiple music files was fixed.
This release will reset channel volumes after a fade out interrupts a fade in. It fixes a crash race condition with position audio functions and stereo panning in 8-bit mode, and a crash caused by not resetting position_channels. MOD support uses libmikmod, and is dynamically loaded by default. A patched version of libmikmod is included in libmikmod-3.1.12.zip. The libmikmod patches fix security issues CVE-2007-6720 and CVE-2009-0179. Seamless looping for music playback has been implemented. ID3 is recognized as MP3. A decoder enumeration API, support for FLAC audio both as chunks and streaming, and support for streaming WAV have been added.
This release adds support for loading music from SDL_rwops (an abstract data source). The Ogg Vorbis and MP3 decoding libraries are also dynamically loaded so they can be added and removed without recompiling SDL_mixer.
This release updates the CodeWarrior project files, adds a function to
query the music format (Mix_GetMusicType()) and a function to load
audio data from memory (Mix_QuickLoad_RAW()), cleans up threading
issues in the music playback code, and fixes the deadlock introduced
in the last release.
