-README for PortAudio Loopback Test
-
-Copyright (c) 1999-2010 Phil Burk and Ross Bencina
-See complete license at end of file.
-
-This folder contains code for a single executable that does a standalone test of PortAudio.
-It does not require a human to listen to the result. Instead it listens to itself using
-a loopback cable connected between the audio output and the audio input. Special pop detectors
-and phase analysers can detect errors in the audio stream.
-
-This test can be run from a script as part of a nightly build and test.
-
---- How to Build the Loopback Test ---
-
-The loopback test is not normally built by the makefile.
-To build the loopback test, enter:
-
- ./configure && make loopback
-
-This will build the "bin/paloopback" executable.
-
---- How To Run Test ---
-
-Connect stereo cables from one or more output audio devices to audio input devices.
-The test will scan all the ports and find the cables.
-
-Adjust the volume levels of the hardware so you get a decent signal that will not clip.
-
-Run the test from the command line with the following options:
-
- -i# Input device ID. Will scan for loopback if not specified.
- -o# Output device ID. Will scan for loopback if not specified.
- -r# Sample Rate in Hz. Will use multiple common rates if not specified.
- -s# Size of callback buffer in frames, framesPerBuffer.
- -w Save bad recordings in a WAV file.
- -dDir Path for Directory for WAV files. Default is current directory.
- -m Just test the DSP Math code and not the audio devices.
-
-If the -w option is set then any tests that fail will save the recording of the broken
-channel in a WAV file. The files will be numbered and shown in the report.
-
---- ToDo ---
-
-* Add check for harmonic and enharmonic distortion.
-* Measure min/max peak values.
-* Detect DC bias.
-* Test against matrix of devices/APIs and settings.
-* Detect mono vs stereo loopback.
-* More command line options
- --quick
- --latency
- --duration
-* Automated build and test script with cron job.
-* Test on Windows.
