linux support

alsa/pulseaudio support missing

[grishka]

The library will eventually be ported to each of the four remaining operating systems (Windows, Linux, OS X, Windows Phone).

That would be great. Will it then help it to port to Telegram Desktop versions?

[stek29]

@omkarnathsingh No, you'd have to manually acquire keys, endpoints and other configs from patched tg-cli and make a call using some kind of custom wrapper for this lib (jk, ofc it will)

Please either leave out or make pulseaudio an option. Just google "Pulseaudio crash" to see all the horror stories. alsa or ogg is an good option.

Windows Phone is dead.

@stek29 tg-cli is pretty much dead, I suggest you use MadelineProto: I've already implemented auth key generation for calls (with emoji verification too!), and I'm writing a PHP extension to wrap this lib in a nice class: I've currently implemented wrappers for all methods except the audio callbacks, where I've still gotta decide what method to use to acquire audio (I'm more for a native implementation (with OpenSL ES converting audio from a given file/fifo maybe?); suggestions are welcome (not here, but in the wrapper's repo)).

[grishka]

@danger89 the library will have audio wrappers available for all three desktop operating systems shortly. Currently working on the OS X one, but there will also be, at least, ALSA for Linux and WinAPI-based one for Windows. And you can always do file/ffmpeg/whatever based one, the only important thing is to be precise with callback timing; callbacks should be called exactly every 20 ms.

Also, expect some (minor) changes to the public API as I'll be refactoring the whole thing. For example, I'm planning to rename CVoIPController to tgvoip::VoIPController.

Windows working?
