[MPlayer-dev-eng] Possibilitiy to specify alsa output "default:CARD=Headset"]

[Philipp Kolmann]

Hi,

Currently when I want to have mplayer ao to my Headset I set in the
.mplayer/config file:

ao=alsa:device=hw=1.0

That works, but blocks the port. I also tried it with noblock, with no
better result.

Now I wanted to try to get mplayer to play to the default (with dmix) port
of my headset, which works, if I set the device to:

default:CARD=Headset

Problem is, that I have to substitute the ":" to "=" in the config to
work. In libao2/ao_alsa.c 238++ the "="'s are set to ":". But also the
second "=". So alsalib doesn't recognize the device.

Is there a possibility to have another subst char for "="?

How about the following:

Index: libao2/ao_alsa.c
===================================================================

     tmp[0] = ',';
   while ((tmp = strrchr(dest, '=')))
     tmp[0] = ':';
+  while ((tmp = strrchr(dest, '+')))
+    tmp[0] = '=';
 }
 
 static void print_help (void)

Works for me.

thanks
Philipp
