CD burning up for grabs
Locked
 
|
I realized that I haven't touched CD burning in a while, so I'm
offering it up for grabs. I checked in my library, "portburn", to CVS in audacity/lib-src/portburn, and thanks to some help from Leland, it works great on both Mac OS X and Windows XP - but it's just a standalone library now, not integrated into Audacity. What I intended to do was: * Create a configure script and Makefile * Refactor "Export Multiple" so that "Export Multiple", "Export to FTP", and "Export to CD-ROM" all share most of the same code - in particular, most of the same code for choosing how to split a project into multiple tracks, and the same code to mix the audio for export. They would each subclass this generic class to provide the unique functionality. (The only technical detail I hadn't worked out is how to Export a WAV file directly to FTP, since libsndfile only writes to a local file, not to a memory buffer...I guess we'll have to stage the whole file on disk before uploading.) * Add Linux support by imitating how xcdroast works - this would be a pretty significant task but perfect for a "old-school" unix hacker type who's good with two-way pipes. :) Anyway, this is not at all high priority but it would be a really nice feature to add if anyone is interested in working on it. I won't have time, so it's up for grabs. - Dominic ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.

This would be very popular and convenient for the users Dominic, and would save a lot of hassle supporting the oddities of all the other CD burning apps. out there.. But we have a lot of fixes to do on release checklist (to which I have got things to add) and a lot of users who want a new stable release. If no-one bites, can we at least have this though as "Not Aiming for 1.4.0" on the Checklist? It is important and I'd like to see it recognised as such, but not so important (I think) as ironing bugs and working towards 1.3.4 or 1.4.0 test. Thanks Gale Outbound message virus free.

Gale,
I agree with your priorities, and we shouldn't wait until CD burning is completed to ship 1.4.0. However, that doesn't mean someone couldn't work on it. An experienced developer might get tired of fixing bugs and want to work on something new. Or a new developer - new to Audacity, that is - might want to pick this up as a side project with some existing momentum but no immediate deadline. I'm happy either way. - Dominic On Jun 30, 2007, at 10:51 PM, Gale Andrews wrote: > > | From Dominic Mazzoni <[hidden email]> > | Sat, 30 Jun 2007 19:01:20 -0700 > | Subject: [Audacity-devel] CD burning up for grabs > | I realized that I haven't touched CD burning in a while, so I'm > | offering it up for grabs.
