[Qemu-devel] [RFC] Default audio_drv_list to "sdl" on Win32

Malc,

Do you have a problem with this?  QEMU requires SDL by default on 
Windows so I see no reason not to use it for audio too.

Regards,

Anthony Liguori

Well last time i tried SDL audio on windows (admittedly years ago) it
was such a disaster that i probably omitted for this reason, then again
if it goes after dsound (which becomes the default) i see no harm in
including it.

Hmm last time I used it it was when porting Caloric (an ORIC emulator)
to win32 with SDL, it wasn't that bad, except when zooming, probably
due to the single threaded design, and it had the same problem in BeOS
AFAIR.

François.

Qemu's response times have improved greatly.  It's worth trying again.
