CHANGELOG.md

swyh-rs Changelog

• 1.11.6 (unreleased)

  • CLI: optimize player argument parsing (-o)
  • CLI: bugfix when multiple players specified
  • CLI: bugfix in ^C handling: ask all players to stop instead of only the default player, and check that they are still playing before doing that.
  • replace some "if else if..." chains with match guards

• 1.11.5 (Sep 20 2024 dheijl)

  • replace reading the CONFIG value (rwlock!) for every captured audio frame with a simple AtomicBool read
  • CLI: allow to use the device name(s) instead of the IP address(es) with -o. A substring unique to a device name is also OK (case sensitive) (see issue #141 by @boydfields).
  • CLI: add a warning to the Readme that you should not stream to both speakers of a Sonos stereo pair, only to the master speaker, otherwise you could break the stereo pair.

• 1.11.4 (Sep 4 2024, dheijl)

  • more tweaks filling the streaming buffers:
    • replace the vec_deque pop_front() with a drain iterator
    • replace all indexing in the streaming buffers with iterators, fill the buffers "in one shot" without jumping, and zip the 2 iterators
  • show the audio capture sample format when the capture starts

• 1.11.3 (Aug 30 2024 dheijl)

  • some tweaks:
    • avoid unnecessary allocations
    • rewrite how samples are serialized in the streaming buffer, it's safer, cleaner and should be faster too

• 1.11.2 (Aug 18 2024 dheijl)

  • clean up log initializing mess
  • handle flac encoding interruption better

• 1.11.1 (Aug 16 2024 dheijl)

  • Rust 1.80.1
  • merge PR #139 by @Villardo that adds FLTK Theme support
  • add possibility to restore the theme to FLTK defaults (thanks @MoAlyousef for adding this feature to fltk-theme)
  • make theme change persistent in the config file

• 1.11.0 (Aug 10 2024 dheijl)

  • GUI: replaced the FLTK callback recursion mutex (for the choice widget popups) with an AtomicBool. See issue #10 (panic while panicking in the choice callback), but I don't know if the recursion check is still actually needed with the current FLTK version, I never could reproduce the recursion problem.
  • optimize CONFIG locking somewhat
  • make all fltk callbacks consistently follow the same pattern
  • GUI: delay logging until logging properly initialized
  • update innosetup
  • replace rand by fastrand, as rand is overkill here, it's faster and also reduces dependencies
  • some clippy

• 1.10.10 (Jul 6 2024 dheijl)

  • CLI: sanitize ssdp interval argument
  • CLI: don't ignore renderers newly discovered by ssdp
  • Windows setup: install Microsoft VC++ runtime 17 (VS 2015..2022) if not already installed, as Rust binaries compiled with the MSVC toolchain depend on it (issue #137).
  • bugfix: if the local address of the PC changes for some reason (DHCP): ignore the configured old (and wrong) value and use the current default instead.
  • refactoring: replace the three inter-thread event channels by a single enum-based channel

• 1.10.9 (May 25 2024 dheijl)

  • optimize flac near silence injection when no sound is being captured
  • GUI: you can now disable ssdp discovery by setting the ssdp interval to 0.0. Note that the minimum ssdp interval if enabled stays at 0.5 (half a minute). This is equivalent to the "-x" (serve only) option in the CLI.

• 1.10.8 (May 23 2024 dheijl)

  • some code cleanup:
    • remove unused config value "use_wave_format"
    • autoreconnect now defaults to false on a fresh installation
    • GUI: changing streaming format or bits per sample no longer ask for a restart. If you change the streaming format, don't forget to change the streamsize to a working value too!

• 1.10.7 (May 22 2024 dheijl)

  • CLI: don't set autoreconnect to true if serve-only (-x) is set, it's meaningless
  • GUI: changing the StreamSize doesn't need a restart, new connections simply use the new value, active connections are not affected
  • internet radio URL: query parameters bd (bit depth) and ss (streamsize) allow to override any configured values, for example
    • /stream/swyh.flac?bd=24&ss=nonechunked
    • /stream/swyh.wav?bd=16&ss=u32maxnotchunked useful for CLI and/or when you don't use SSDP and the buttons in the GUI

• 1.10.6 (May 18 2024 dheijl)

  • make the default streamsize for FLAC NoneChunked
  • remove the NOISE feature flag: this enables the white noise injection for FLAC if no sound while streaming. Only works if you do NOT** enable "Inject Silence".
  • switch to dasp_sample for FLAC and i24

• 1.10.5 (May 9 2024 dheijl)

  • CLI: the -o option now accepts multiple player ip addresses seperated by a comma. Ignored in serve-only (-x) mode.
  • use hashbrown HashMap where possible
  • don't blow up memory if the streaming stalls, but discard samples
  • add a configurable "up-front" samples buffering before streaming actually starts, it may help to prevent stuttering with some configurations
  • fix resizing by using fltk Flex instead of Pack

• 1.10.4 (Apr 23 2024 dheijl)

  • GUI: autoreconnect now works for multiple players. When you close swyh-rs (GUI) any players still active will be remembered in the config before they are stopped. This should fix issue #129. CLI is unaffected by this change.

• 1.10.3 (Apr 8 2024 dheijl)

  • GUI: try to stop any players still streaming when the swyh-rs windows is closed. If the players don't stop streaming voluntarily exit anyway (after a 5 second time-out).

• 1.10.2 (Apr 8 2024 dheijl)

  • clip player button text

• 1.10.1 (Mar 27 2024 dheijl)

  • CLI: add ordered shutdown on CTRL-C, by telling the streamer to stop before exiting. This should fix #125.

• 1.10.0 (Mar 17 2024 dheijl)

  • CLI: allow to specify a sound source name instead of an index, it can be substring of the name, if you have duplicates append :n to the name where n is a zero-based index
  • PR #118 by @ein-shved:
    • clean up configuration.rs
    • add possibility to specify a configuration file on the commandline
    • CLI: changes to make it easier to run swyh-rs-cli as a service by @ein-shved
      • add possibility to use a minimal configuration and to make the configuration file read-only
      • add nix build files and nix module to run swyh-rs-cli as a service
      • use the local-ip-address crate so that you don't need a "dummy" internet access to Google DNS to locate the default interface for SSDP
      • new commandline switch -C (--configfile) to specify an alternative pathname of the configfile
      • switch to serve mode if no player specified

• 1.9.9 (Feb 29 2024 dheijl)

  • fix test compilation (PR #116, thanks @ein-shved)
  • add nix build recipes from @ein-shved, PR #117
  • add streamsize/chunking dropdown to swyh-rs GUI and cli argument to swyh-rs-cli. Allows one to choose a combination of streaming format an streamsize that works. See also issue #120.

• 1.9.8 (Feb 13 2024 dheijl)

  • support setting volume in swyh-rs-cli too if the renderer supports it (-v xx or --volume n, where n between 0 and 100)
  • optimize release builds (lto = "thin" and codegen-units = 1)

• 1.9.7 (Feb 8 2024 dheijl)

  • fix bug in getting/setting Sonos volume

• 1.9.6 (Feb 5 2024 dheijl)

  • don't show the volume sliders if Get/SetVolume does not work, like with recent Sonos firmware (#115)

• 1.9.5 (Feb 4 2024 dheijl)

  • add Volume Control Sliders as requested in issue #113
  • if you wish you can now compile swyh-rs with the "NOISE" feature for FLAC, where a very faint noise is sent instead of silence to keep the connection alive if there is no sound (FLAC compresses the silence away)

• 1.9.4 (Dec 4 2023 dheijl)

  • more clippy
  • introduce cargo build features "cli" and "gui", needed to build swyh-rs-cli without pulling in fltk-rs and its dependencies, and to build swyh-rs without the cli specific code. Also see the updated build information in the wiki.
  • document that recent Sonos firmware now supports FLAC format too. It solves the stuttering problem that can happen when using WAV format on some networks.
  • CLI: config sound source was ignored

• 1.9.3 (Nov 11 2023 dheijl)

  • some clippy recommendations
  • when swyh-rs or swyh-rs-cli are used as an internet radio, the URL used by the client now selects the streaming format, independent of the configured values:
    • /stream/swyh.raw => LPCM 16 bit
    • /stream/swyh.flac => FLAC 24 bit
    • /stream/swyh.wav => LPCM 16 bit with a WAV header
    • /stream/swyh.rf64 => LPCM 16 bit with a WAV/RF64 header

• 1.9.2 (Nov 3 2023 dheijl)

  • some optimizations, use more iterators instead of loops, ...
  • cli argument "autoreconnect" removed, it's de facto ON
  • correct RMS value calculation
  • issue #111: introduce a new -x (--serve_only) commandline switch for the cli. If -x is present no SSDP discovery is run and playing is not started. swyh-rs-cli just sits there waiting for play requests from renderers. Some other useful options in this use case are: -f (format), -b (bits) and -s (sound source).
  • CLI: boolean options no longer need an argument, absent means false, present means true. You can still use false to disable options stored in the config. The options -h, -n and -x are not stored in the config file.

• 1.9.1 (Oct 19 2023 dheijl)

  • use WAV didl protocol info for RF64 too (instead of LPCM), should be compatible
  • add RF64 format to CLI binary too
  • use Wave HTTP header for RF64 too

• 1.9.0 (Oct 18 2023 dheijl)

  • some small fixes (cli and WAV format)
  • add support for RF64 format, as it removes the 4 GB WAV limitation. All formats except WAV no longer have limits on the stream size.

• 1.8.7 (Oct 14 2023 dheijl)

  • a fix for LPCM (raw) audio format on Moode Audio Player by letting the URL file extension reflect the audio type.
  • make the WAV format header more correct/compatible. Note that MPD (ffmpeg/wav plugin) tries to use HTTP ranges (to parse the WAV header) which are unsupported and this leads to an extra HTTP request but it still plays the WAV.
  • reduce the HTTP response contentlength header from u64::MAX to u32::MAX. If this makes play stop after some 6 hours just enable autoresume.

• 1.8.6 (Oct 9 2023 dheijl)

  • make sure that http-tiny does not use chunking this time

• 1.8.5 (Oct 4 2023 dheijl)

  • remove "chunked transfer" config option and associated code, it's considered useless and removed from HTTP 2 anyway

• 1.8.4 (Sep 9 2023 dheijl)

  • config: make sure SoundCardIndex defaults to 0 instead of None to prevent accidentally selecting the wrong device when there are duplicate names (issue #107)

• 1.8.3 (Jul 7 2023 dheijl & joshuamegnauth54)

  • log architecture and OS environment
  • remove unnecessary thread for silence injector
  • expose the hitherto hidden "inject silence" configuration flag in the UI and in the cli commandline

• 1.8.2 (Jun 26 2023 dheijl)

  • cli: handle player ip not found (use first renderer)
  • Merge pull request #96 from joshuamegnauth54/cache_device_name:
    • get rid of some unwraps preventing possible panics
    • cache cpal sound device info
  • fix for issue #99: don't use Openhome Playlist for QPlay devices, use AVTransport instead

• 1.8.1 (May 6, dheijl and Joshua Megnauth @joshuamegnauth54)

  • make input devices too available for streaming, see PR #95
  • swyh-rs-cli: add a "-n" (--no-run) option. It enables a "dry-run" mode: the app exits where it would normally start streaming. Allows you to get the index of the sound sources and the ip addresses of the streamers that you need to pass as command line paremeters.

• 1.7.1 (Apr 26 2023 dheijl)

  • bugfix: update in memory shared config instance for other threads

• 1.7.0 (Apr 26 2023 dheijl)

  • fix shaky silence buffer generation
  • update dependencies, update rust to 1.69
  • upgrade bitflags to 2.x
  • split into a GUI binary and a new CLI binary (see issue #93)

• 1.6.1 (Feb 28 2023 dheijl)

  • changed SSDP interval default from 1 to 10 minutes
  • changed chunked transfer default from true to false
  • upgrade to rust 1.67.1
  • upgrade lexopt to latest version
  • upgrade Cpal to 0.15 & dasp_sample
  • clippy fixes
  • cope with Yamaha WXAD-10 having an invalid UrlBase port number in the service description (issue #89)

• 1.6.0 (Nov 6 2022 dheijl)

  • migrated from winapi to windows-rs (following cpal)
  • set the SSDP socket TTL to 2 seconds per UPNP spec
  • updated Readme mentioning that HTTP port 5901 must be open for incoming streaming requests
  • do not panck on an invalid configuration file at startup, but replace it with a new default one

• 1.5.1 (Oct 16 2022 dheijl)

  • added the possibility of having multiple configurations. This allows you to run multiple instances of swyh-rs (using an optional commandline switch: -c config_id or --configuration config_id), where each configuration can use a different audio source. Suggested by @cavadias, see issue #82. Each configuration gets its own config file and log file in the .swyh-rs folder in your HOME directory.
  • removed the delay when starting the streaming server as it can interfere with autoreconnect.

• 1.4.6-beta (unreleased)

  • appimage for Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and later

• 1.4.5 (Sep 8 2022 dheijl)

  • fix for pausing music with Sonos causing the Sonos to close the connection. This optionally injects silence at the music source, contributed by @genekellyjr (see issue #71), with a new "InjectSilence" boolean flag in the config.toml (not exposed in the GUI). For this to work you have to
    • check that swyh-rs uses the same output as your music source in the Windows soundmixer
    • edit your config.toml and change the InjectSilence flag from false to true
  • flt-sys 1.3.14 builds again on Windows with MSVC, so we no longer need to use the fltk-bundled feature

• 1.4.4 (Sep 1 2022 dheijl)

  • handle duplicate sound card names by storing the index too (solves issue #70)
  • make the CaptureTimeout for LPCM/WAV configurable in the config.toml, with a default of 2000 msec (as it was hardcoded before). If no sound is captured for a CaptureTimeout period, a block of slience of (CaptureTimeout / 4) msec length is sent to the receiver (was previously 250 msec hardcoded).
  • for some reason I can no longer compile fltk on Windows with MSVC, so fltk-bundled is used for now on Windows

• 1.4.3 (Aug 3 2022 dheijl)

  • update flac-bound to official 0.3.0
  • implement "silence" sending for FLAC too, but it introduces a considerable delay due to FLAC compressing silence so well :) (issue #65), so disable this feature altogether for now

• 1.4.2 (July 18 2022 dheijl)

  • use latest flac-bound git master to build libflac-sys without OGG

• 1.4.1 (July 15 2022 dheijl)

  • some code cleanup and comments, and document that libflac-sys does not build on 32 bit, so no more 32 bit support
  • small ui change

• 1.4.0 (July 12 2022 dheijl)

  • add 16 bit and 24 bit FLAC support, using Flac-bound and libflac-sys

• 1.3.26 (June 7 2022 dheijl)

  • Fix possible exposure to CVE-2021-45707 and CVE-2022-24713 by replacing ifcfg crate with if_addrs crate.

• 1.3.25 (May 4 2022 dheijl)

  • Fix broken AVTransport (again), fixes issue #59

• 1.3.24 (April 20 2022 dheijl)

  • refactor rendering control code (pull up common OH and AV play template generation)
  • explicit stop playing for Openhome renderers too before starting play, Moode needs it

• 1.3.23 (Feb 22 2022 dheijl)

  • fix the broken AV transport "SetAVTransportUri" DIDL-Lite template, the error was introduced with 1.3.20. Thanks again @MX10-AC2N.

  • automatically migrate an exisiting config.ini to config.toml
  • update to Rust edition 2021
  • wait for the first SSDP discovery to complete before starting the streaming server

  • SSDP now detects all OpenHome and DLNA renderers, but only uses the OpenHome device for devices that are capable of both
    • prevent panic in audio source chooser caused by vertical bar ("|") in audio source name, it too must be escaped for FLTK Menu_Item...

• 1.0.2 (Nov 15 2020 dheijl)
