$VER: mhimdev.library 1.5 (Sat 04-Mar-2023)
#features
mhimdev.library is a driver for the MHI system. It doesn't support any
specific MPEG audio hardware decoder directly, instead it sends the data
to an mpeg.device driver. It's an "interface converter" or "wrapper" that
allows you to use your existing MPEG hardware and drivers in applications
which support the new MHI interface only. (such as AmigaAMP)
This program is free software, full source code available at:
https://bitbucket.org/supernobby/mhimdev
#requirements
-AmigaOS V37+
-MPEG audio hardware decoder with mpeg.device support
(eg. CD32 FMV, Delfina DSP, MAS Player, Melody and possibly some more)
-developed on A1200 - OS3.1/68030+882@40MHz/16MBFastRAM/Delfina1200DSP
-tested with delfinampeg.device 1.2 and AmigaAMP 2.9-beta1
-tested with AmigaAMP 2.24
#changes since previous release
- after pause resume did not work correctly
#reason for version 1.2
I used the mhi_mdev.library and noticed a problem with the MPEGCMD_PLAY.
The library uses DoIO to send it to the device, which I think is not
compatible with the Commodore standard, where the command instead will
be aborted later.
I asked Michael to change this. But he can't do this any more. As source
is available, I did it.
Now, the MPEGCMD_PLAY is issued with SendIO and later aborted. This should
not cause any problems with mpeg devices that already worked with the
mhi_mdev.library. But now also the devices that wait for the MPEGCMD_PLAY
to be aborted (if there are any), which is I think so according to the
Commodore documentation, will also work.
#how to use
1) install library
> makedir LIBS:MHI
> copy mhimdev.library LIBS:MHI/
2) configure library
two parameters must be set in the environment variable MHIMDEV
-name of your specific mpeg.device
-unit number (usually 0, but may be different for your hardware)
example from my system:
> setenv MHIMDEV delfinampeg.device 0
> copy ENV:MHIMDEV ENVARC:
3) configure application(s)
at the moment only AmigaAMP uses the new MHI interface.
-start AmigaAMP prefs program
-go to System page
-select engine: MHI-Driver
-select driver: LIBS:MHI/mhimdev.library
4) have fun. ;-)
#known problems
-MHI defines a few extensions that are NOT SUPPORTED by the mpeg.device
standard so they are simply ignored. Currently they are:
-tone control (bass/mid/treble)
-crossmixing control (stereo channel separation)
-mhimdev.library was written according to the mpeg.device specification so
it should work with all MPEG decoders which support this interface.
Due to lack of other hardware decoders I can test it only with my Delfina
using delfinampeg.device. I would like to know what other mpeg.devices are
used with this MHI driver. (please report successful usage, too)
