Constructor Details

#initialize(driver) { ... } ⇒ Player

Note:

for instructions on how to write your own audio driver, see Hallons’ README

Constructs a Player, given an audio driver.

Examples:

player = Hallon::Player.new(Hallon::OpenAL)
player.play(track)

Parameters:

  • driver (AudioDriver)

Yields:

  • instance_evals itself, allowing you to define callbacks using on

Instance Method Details

#bitrate=(bitrate) ⇒ Object

Note:

the double possible errors is a result of the same thing as for Session#offline_bitrate=, see its documentation for further information.

Set preferred playback bitrate.

Parameters:

  • bitrate (Symbol)

    one of :96k, :160k, :320k

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

    if given invalid bitrate

  • (Spotify::Error)

    if libspotify does not accept the given bitrate

end

#get_audio_buffer_statsObject (protected)
