Title: Getting the actual data in SoundBuffer?
Post by: Unseen Machine on April 08, 2011, 08:33:36 pm

First Hi,

I am making a wrapper so QB64 http://www.qb64.net can have use of at least some parts of SFML (namely OpenGL) but i have come to a stumbling block.

In QB64 there is a command called _SNDRAW which takes data (ranging from -1 to 1) at the sample rate of the sound card. The data sent is the speakers position at that point in time -1 = fully down, 0  normal, 1 = fully up.

I would like to be able to put the data from a SoundBuffer into an array i pass from QB64 to my C++ function, so i can have access to each sample's value and then convert it to be compatible with _SNDRAW.

How do i access the values of each sample in a SoundBuffer?
In what format is the data from SoundBuffer passed to the sound card?

Any help would be great,

Many thanks,

John

GetSamples().

16 bits signed integers.

By the way, everything's explained in the documentation ;)

That should be in your signature  :lol:

I read the docs, they are excellant by the way.

The problem is QB64 cant use pointers. I need to fill an array i dimension in QB64 and pass to my C++ function, as i cant use pointers i need to get each individual sample from SOundBuffer and put it into my array, which i can then use in QB64.

Any ideas?

Title: A differant explanation
Post by: Unseen Machine on April 09, 2011, 12:35:03 am

Maybe if i explain it differantly.

I want to be able to get the value of a single sample from SoundBuffer.

Some thing like (not that this will work, just an idea of what i am after)

int SF_Sound_Buffer_Get_Sample(int SampleNum)
{
   return(SndBuffer.GetSample(SampleNum));
}

Is it possible?

Thanks,

John

The pointer returned by GetSamples() points at the array of samples, so...

Code: [Select]

buffer.GetSamples()[SampleNum]

I will look into it and report back later. SFML kicks SDL's butt  by the way..

Works like a dream, many thanks.

Title: Whats the limit?
Post by: Unseen Machine on April 09, 2011, 10:43:15 pm

I got a few more questions on the same topic,

How many samples can a SoundBuffer contain?
Is it set or system limited (by memory)?
Is there a Filesize limit?
I have not looked into Music yet, can you get the samples from that too?

Thanks and sorry for being a pest.

I think there's no limit, except the available memory.

No.

It's not its purpose. If you want to access the samples of an audio file, use sf::SoundBuffer.

I think you should write code instead of asking every possible question that comes to your mind ;)

Well here's what have done so far (built for QB64). The thred on qb64 forum is here...http://www.qb64.net/forum/index.php?topic=3204.0

I appreciate the replies thuough Laurent, many thanks.
