It -is currently fairly complete for PCM devices. My next goal is to have -complete mixer supports as well. MIDI sequencer support is low on my -priority list, but volunteers are welcome. - -If you find bugs in the wrappers please notify me on email. Please -don't send bug reports regarding ALSA specifically. There are several -bugs in this api, and those should be reported to the ALSA team - not -me. - -This software is licensed under the PSF license - the same one used -by the majority of the python distribution. Basically you can use it -for anything you wish (even commercial purposes). There is no warranty -whatsoever. - - -Installation -============ - -Note: the wrappers link with the alsasound library alsa (from the alsa-lib -package). Verify that this is installed by looking for /usr/lib/libasound.so -before building. The libasound development files are also neccesary. On debian -and derivatives, this is achieved by installing the alsalib-dev package. - -Naturally you also need to use a kernel with proper ALSA -support. This is the default in Linux kernel 2.6 and later. If you are using -kernel version 2.4 you may need to install the ALSA patches yourself - although -most distributions ship with ALSA kernels. - -To install, execute the following: - $ python setup.py build - -And then as root: - # python setup.py install - - -Using the API -============= -There is a reasonably usefull API documentation included in the module -documentation, which can be found in the doc subdirectory of the source -distribution. - -There are also three example programs included with the source: -'playbacktest.py' which plays back raw sound data read from -stdin - -'recordtest.py' which captures sound from the microphone at writes -it raw to stdout. - -'mixertest.py' which can be used to manipulate the mixers -- cgit v0.9.1
