Hi,
since I wanted sl viewer sound to work for my Linux x86_64 system and
did not know about the existing OpenAL patch I started porting the FMOD
3 library calls to FMOD (Ex) 4.
The result works so far (including wind and internet streams) but needs
some more fine tuning, especially seeing if the setup is working on all
systems and I still saw some error messages due to using already
freed/reused handles. I also have no idea if it works on any other
system than Linux x86-64.
Anyway, I've been using it for many days now on my system, got no
segfaults (in the related code) and sound keeps working fine.
The patch and a short description is at http://sl.mebsuta.de
I'm not aiming at having this integrated into the official sources since
I believe an open source solution would be more satisfying in the long
run but hopefully until this is done it might make the experience more
joyful to the group of 64 bit users (like me).
Regards,
Carsten
