Jukebox

An OpenAL modular Jukebox written in C++

Design

The idea for this jukebox is to abstract away most of the OpenAL ends of audio streaming by using class inheritance and overloaded methods. In order to add new audio formats to this system, simply inherit from the source class, overload the method long read(ALuint buffer) to load the correct frequency, format, and data into a buffer, and that's it.

Usage

To use the jukebox, run the following (where $ is a shell input)

$ ./bin/main /path/to/audio/file

Building

In order to build this project, the following libraries are necessary:

• OpenAL Soft (alhough Hard will work as well)
• Ogg
• Vorbis file

After installing the above libraries, run the following to build the jukebox.

$ make

Enjoy.

To-Dos

• Automatic source selection by file format & suffix
• Better thread management
• More File formats
