README for PortAudio Loopback Test

See complete license at end of file.
|
|
|
|
This folder contains code for a single executable that does a standalone test of PortAudio.
|
|
It does not require a human to listen to the result. Instead it listens to itself using
|
|
a loopback cable connected between the audio output and the audio input. Special pop detectors
|
|
and phase analysers can detect errors in the audio stream.
|
|
|
|
This test can be run from a script as part of a nightly build and test.
|
|
|
|
--- How to Build the Loopback Test ---
|
|
|
|
The loopback test is not normally built by the makefile.
|
|
To build the loopback test, enter:
|
|
|
|
./configure && make loopback
|
|
|
|
This will build the "bin/paloopback" executable.
|
|
|
|
--- How To Run Test ---
|
|
|
|
Connect stereo cables from one or more output audio devices to audio input devices.
|
|
The test will scan all the ports and find the cables.
|
|
|
|
Adjust the volume levels of the hardware so you get a decent signal that will not clip.
|
|
|
|
Run the test from the command line with the following options:
|
|
|
|
-i# Input device ID. Will scan for loopback if not specified.
|
|
-o# Output device ID. Will scan for loopback if not specified.
|
|
-r# Sample Rate in Hz. Will use multiple common rates if not specified.
|
|
-s# Size of callback buffer in frames, framesPerBuffer.
|
|
-w Save bad recordings in a WAV file.
|
|
-dDir Path for Directory for WAV files. Default is current directory.
|
|
-m Just test the DSP Math code and not the audio devices.
|
|
|
|
If the -w option is set then any tests that fail will save the recording of the broken
|
|
channel in a WAV file. The files will be numbered and shown in the report.
|

--- ToDo ---
|
|
|
|
* Add check for harmonic and enharmonic distortion.
|
|
* Measure min/max peak values.
|
|
* Detect DC bias.
|
|
* Test against matrix of devices/APIs and settings.
|
|
* Detect mono vs stereo loopback.
|
|
* More command line options
|
|
--quick
|
|
--latency
|
|
--duration
|
|
* Automated build and test script with cron job.
|
|
* Test on Windows.
