RtAudio incorporates the concept of audio streams, which represent audio output (playback) and/or input (recording). Available audio devices and their capabilities can be enumerated and then specified when opening a stream. Where applicable, multiple API support can be compiled and a particular API specified when creating an RtAudio instance. See the \ref apinotes section for information specific to each of the supported audio APIs.
-\section whatsnew What's New (Version 4.0)
-
-RtAudio V4 represents a significant rewrite of the code and includes a number of API and functionality changes from previous versions. A partial list of the changes includes:
-- new support for non-interleaved user data
-- additional input/output parameter specifications, including channel offset
-- new support for dynamic connection of devices
-- new support for stream time
-- revised callback arguments, including separate input and output buffer arguments
-- revised C++ exception handling
-- updated support for OSS version 4.0
-- discontinued support of blocking functionality
-- discontinued support of SGI
-
-Devices are now re-enumerated every time the RtAudio::getDeviceCount(), RtAudio::getDeviceInfo(), and RtAudio::openStream() functions are called. This allows for the proper identification of hot-pluggable (USB, Firewire, ...) devices that are connected after an RtAudio instance is created.
