[00:00:46][Plan for today]
[00:02:07][Dynamic asset streaming and audio mixing didn't take that much code]
[00:03:37][Public service announcement: Sometimes, writing your own code is faster than reusing other people's code]
[00:05:56][Some differences between audio and video animation and their effects on sound mixing architecture]
[00:09:55][We want to change volume over time, while avoiding discontinuities]
[00:12:53][Definition of the interface to ChangeVolume]
[00:14:03][Two ways of specifying speed of volume change: time it takes to reach target volume vs rate of change]
[00:21:20][Using dimensional analysis to figure out dVolume]
[00:30:50][Changing resolution back to 960x540 to remain in debug mode at a reasonable framerate]
[00:34:30][Avoiding overshooting the target volume]
[00:44:28][Problem of current approach: repeated imprecise floating-point addition may lead to errors]
[00:45:25][Alternative approach: linear interpolation between beginning and end volumes]
[00:46:42][Alternative approach: backsolving to hit the target volume at the end of the loop]
[00:48:11][Testing ChangeVolume interactively]
[00:53:08][Q&A][:speech]
[00:53:49][@constantinopol][Can you show again how you skipped a failed assertion, by going to disassembly?]
[01:00:10][@swampy_butt][Would there be any case where you would like to increase volume non-linearly?]
[01:02:01][@flyingsand][So far you can just change the volume of individual sounds. Should we be able to change the volume of the master output as well?]
[01:03:26][@chronaldragon][Will Handmade Hero support spatialization? e.g. sound mostly in left channel if on left side of the screen, sound mostly in right channel if on right side, etc.]
[01:04:03][@rpg_ignis][How hard would it be to do a fade-out/fade-in for the music when the window loses focus/gets focus back?]
[01:05:09][@gasto5][So what did you end up doing to dVolume if it wasn't linear interpolation?]
[01:05:28][@waterlimon][If you implemented Assert using ?: instead of if, you could use it as part of expressions or other such places where you can't have an if statement]
[01:06:15][@gasto5][Did you already implement audio clipping?]
[01:07:34][@gasto5][(clarification) Managing audio dynamic range. Yes]
[01:08:04][@waterlimon][With respect to Assert, I don't know why you would want to put one in an expression, but apparently that's how it's usually implemented... It can't hurt, right?]
[01:09:45][@flyingsand][You can't just hard-clip audio, though. If you don't use a compressor/limiter you would have to at least use soft-clipping with tanh or something]
[01:10:12][@gasto5][Will you implement audio file compression?]
[01:11:35][@abnercoimbre][What would an audio compressor do?]
[01:13:45][@gasto5][How much optimization would the mixer require?]
[01:14:21][@javajax][What is the difference between a limiter and a compressor?]

Cinera 0.7.0 Update Add output parameter to all of hero/code, hero/intro-to-c and hero/misc, preserving the current URLs while allowing different .hmml filenames, notably for hero/misc which now gets sorted chronologically.

Relocate riscy and add newly converted hero The idea here is to reduce the amount of superfluous stuff downloaded to each server running cinera 2017-12-06 22:26:13 +00:00			`[00:00:46][Plan for today]`

Fix some incorrectly converted annotations Also apply some :speech categorisation 2018-03-07 21:48:09 +00:00			`[00:53:08][Q&A][:speech]`
