Dummy outputs leak?

[Parakovsky]

Describe the bug I think I have dummy outputs leak, if Allowing replaygain my system start produce dummy outputs each time it encounters weird errors like this one `

Decoding "/storage/Audio/James Holden - Imagine This Is A High Dimensional Space Of All Possibilities (2023) - WEB FLAC 24-48/01. You Are In A Clearing.flac" ended: Ffmpeg_decoder.End_of_file.`

It happens only for replaygain function available, it looks like this on the tellnet:

To Reproduce Here is my setup:

#!/home/parakovsky/.opam/default/bin/liquidsoap

settings.server.telnet := true
server.harbor()
# interactive.harbor()
# 
enable_replaygain_metadata()

# Main

# x = playlist("/home/parakovsky/to-play.m3u", reload_mode="watch")
s = replaygain(playlist(reload_mode="watch", "/storage/Audio"))
# LIVE DJ SET INTERRUPTION
live = input.harbor("tuziknet", port=8090, password="DJ4")
settings.harbor.bind_addrs := ["0.0.0.0"]
s = fallback (track_sensitive=false, [live, request.queue(id="request"), s])
s = crossfade(smart=true, s)

# OUTPUTS AND STUFF

# s = fallback([ request.queue(id="request"),
                    # s])

# mic = input.pulseaudio(device = "alsa_card.usb-Samson_Technologies_Samson_Meteor_Mic-00")
# mic = blank.strip(max_blank=2., min_noise=.1, threshold=-20., mic)

output.icecast(%ogg(%flac), 
     host = "localhost", port = 8030, fallible=true,
     password = "DjCreative1822", format = "audio/ogg", mount = "liq.ogg", s)

# output.file.hls("/tmp/hls", fallible=true,
# [("mp3-low", %mp3(bitrate=96)), ("mp3-hi", %mp3(bitrate=160))],
# s)

# output.icecast(%vorbis(samplerate=44100, channels=2, quality=0.9),
# host = "localhost", port = 8030, fallible=true,
# password = "DjCreati22", format = "audio/ogg", mount = "lossy.ogg", s)

# output.dummy(s)

# a = source.mux.video(video=mksafe(video.cover(s)), s)

# TWITCH STREAM

# key = string.trim(file.contents("twitch-key"))
# url = "rtmp://hel03.contribute.live-video.net/app/#{key}"
# enc = %ffmpeg(format="flv",
# %audio(codec="libmp3lame", samplerate=44100, b="320k"),
# %video(codec="libx264", width=854, height=480,
# b="800k", g=50, preset="veryfast"))
# output.url(fallible=true, url=url, enc, a)

Expected behavior I would like to not have this dummy devices clogging my help output.

Version details Everything updated on Arch.

Install method OPAM

Common issues My common issue is to think that liquidsoap is too awesome.

I can confirm this behavior. With each new track, the dummy is registered to calculate the replay gain.

1. Generate tracks

   mkdir music;
   for i in $(seq 1 9); do
    ffmpeg \
      -f lavfi -i "sine=frequency=${i}00:duration=10" \
      -c:a libmp3lame -b:a 128k \
      "music/$i.mp3";
   done

2. main.liq

   enable_replaygain_metadata()
   
   s = playlist("/tmp/test/music")
   s = replaygain(s)
   output.dummy(s, fallible=true)

You don't even need to connect to the telnet server to see the growing number of dummy ids in the log.
