Function Documentation

void ms_init

(

void

)

void ms_reload_snd_card

(

struct _MSSndCardDesc *

snd_desc

)

This can be called when new sound cards have been added.

Warning: It must NOT be called if one filter is currently created. You have to unlink, destroy everything before doing this.

Parameters:

snd_desc

A MSSndCardDesc description.

int ms_get_payload_max_size

(

)

The max payload size allowed. Filters that generate data that can be sent through RTP should make packets whose size is below ms_get_payload_max_size(). The default value is 1440 computed as the standart internet MTU minus IPv6 header, UDP header and RTP header. As IPV4 header is smaller than IPv6 header, this value works for both.
