I successfully managed to build a complex AUGraph that I'm able to reconfigure on the fly, and all is working well.
I'm facing a wall now with what seems a very simple task: selecting a sepcific output device.
I'm able to get the deviceUID and ID thanks to this post: AudioObjectGetPropertyData to get a list of input devices (that I've modified to get output devices) and to the code below (I can't remember where I've found it, unfortunately)
- (AudioDeviceID) deviceIDWithUID:(NSString *)uid
{
AudioDeviceID myDevice;
AudioValueTranslation trans;
CFStringRef *myKnownUID = (__bridge CFStringRef *)uid;
trans.mInputData = &myKnownUID;
trans.mInputDataSize = sizeof (CFStringRef);
trans.mOutputData = &myDevice;
trans.mOutputDataSize = sizeof(AudioDeviceID);
UInt32 size = sizeof (AudioValueTranslation);
AudioHardwareGetProperty (kAudioHardwarePropertyDeviceForUID,
&size,
&trans);
return myDevice;
}
I'm getting the AudioDeviceID from this method which I store in an NSDictionary. I can NSLog it and when I convert it in hexadecimal it gives me the right ID, found in HALLab.
But when I configure my unit (see code below) the graph only plays on the default device (the one selected in Sound Preferences).
AudioComponent comp = AudioComponentFindNext(NULL, &_componentDescription);
if (comp == NULL) {
printf ("Can't get output unit");
exit (-1);
}
CheckError(AudioComponentInstanceNew(comp, &_auUnit),
"Couldn't open component for output Unit");
UInt32 disableFlag = 0;
UInt32 enableFlag = 1;
AudioUnitScope outputBus = 0;
AudioUnitScope inputBus = 1;
CheckError (AudioUnitSetProperty(_auUnit,
kAudioOutputUnitProperty_EnableIO,
kAudioUnitScope_Output,
outputBus,
&enableFlag,
sizeof(enableFlag)), "AudioUnitSetProperty[kAudioOutputUnitProperty_EnableIO] failed - enable Output");
CheckError (AudioUnitSetProperty(_auUnit,
kAudioOutputUnitProperty_EnableIO,
kAudioUnitScope_Input,
inputBus,
&disableFlag,
sizeof(disableFlag)), "AudioUnitSetProperty[kAudioOutputUnitProperty_EnableIO] failed - disable Input");
AudioDeviceID devID = (AudioDeviceID)[[[_devices objectAtIndex:0] objectForKey:@"deviceID"] unsignedIntValue];
CheckError(AudioUnitSetProperty(_auUnit,
kAudioOutputUnitProperty_CurrentDevice,
kAudioUnitScope_Output,
0,
&devID,
sizeof(AudioDeviceID)), "AudioUnitSetProperty[kAudioOutputUnitProperty_CurrentDevice] failed");
The AUGraph is already configured with all units, nodes are connected, and it's open. What am I doing wrong ?
I would be very grateful for any clue to resolve this problem.
