[vlc-devel] [PATCH 0/5] Backport of avaudiocapture module to 3.0 branch

[david.fuhrmann at gmail.com]

From: David Fuhrmann <dfuhrmann at videolan.org>

Hi there,
On vlc-3.0, we still have the very deprecated qtsound module for
audio capture. The underlying Framework of this module is deprecated
since a long time, and starting with macOS Catalina (the newest version)
it just does not work anymore (i.e. it does not find any audio devices
anymore).

I would like to backport now the successor, avaudiocapture, to the 3.0
branch, to restore this functionality. avaudiocapture uses the new
AVFoundation framework, which is available starting 10.7 (= the first
os version we still support on 3.0).

Code has been tested both on 10.14 and 10.15, as well as on the old
10.7 laptop I still have.

BR. David
