Which sound format uses CPU the least?

<< < (4/4)

AlexP:
All the playback code?  So Doom essentially has another copy of Rockbox within it?  How else would this work? 

Really, it isn't as simple as you think it is.

soap:
Could you simply increase the plugin buffer to be large enough to run rockdoom without stealing the playback buffer?  Is it that simple?

Too bad you don't have a 64MB iPod...
;)

Llorean:
Yeah, it's not a solution that could be applied to Rockbox's official builds, but for personal use one could allocate the plugin buffer as significantly larger than its normal version so it doesn't need to co-opt the playback buffer.

My personal build has a slightly larger plugin buffer since one of my favorite Game Boy games also happens to be one of the largest, and can't otherwise be used during audio playback.
