Hello all,
I am trying to implement a VU Meter style widget by pulling the
currently playing volume of a given source. Note that this is not the
gain of the source; I want the number to be either the raw value of the
sound frame at the time I call the function, or the raw value * current
gain set for the source. Does anyone have an idea on what function I
could call for this?
I would like to get this value for just a certain source, not the entire
OpenAL environment. The VU meters I am making are going to be on a
per-channel level, with each source logically mapped to a certain
channel. Think of the giant mixing boards with a VU meter for each
input source for an idea of what I am trying to do here.
(On a side note, I am actually using JOAL - Java wrappers for the OpenAL
functions - which I believe is currently using the OpenAL 1.0
specification. The JOAL methods map quite closely to the underlying
OpenAL API, which is why I am asking here and not on the JOAL forums.
If you can get me the OpenAL function, that would be good enough for me.)
Thank you!
