AU Validation failed with mono to Stereo ChannelConfig

#1

I used juce-source from SVN.
I changed the ChannelConfiguration from the AudioUnit demo plugin to { 1, 1 }, { 1, 2 }, { 2, 2 }
AU validation fails:
Did i forget something to change?

#2

looks a bit obscure - I’ll have to take a look at that one. You say it works with {1, 1}, {2, 2} ?

#3

yes, {1, 1}, {2, 2} is working
i tried to debug but there a lots of calls that auval does… ( and the Xcode debugger is a little bit painful )

#4

Very strange. I’ll take a look soon.

#5

the problem happens always when there are more then two channel-configurations.

{ 1,2 } { 2,2 } is working too.

#6

this seems to work:

[code] UInt32 SupportedNumChannels (const AUChannelInfo** outInfo)
{
// You need to actually add some configurations to the JucePlugin_PreferredChannelConfigurations
// value in your JucePluginCharacteristics.h file…
jassert (numChannelConfigs > 0);

	static const AUChannelInfo sChannels[numChannelConfigs] = {  JucePlugin_PreferredChannelConfigurations };
	if (outInfo) *outInfo = sChannels;
	return numChannelConfigs;
}[/code]
#7

ah - I assumed it always supplied that array… Thanks, I’ll make that change.

#8

This should work as well, right?

[code] UInt32 SupportedNumChannels (const AUChannelInfo** outInfo)
{
// You need to actually add some configurations to the JucePlugin_PreferredChannelConfigurations
// value in your JucePluginCharacteristics.h file…
jassert (numChannelConfigs > 0);

    if (outInfo != 0)
    {
        *outInfo = channelInfo;

        for (int i = 0; i < numChannelConfigs; ++i)
        {

#if JucePlugin_IsSynth
channelInfo[i].inChannels = 0;
#else
channelInfo[i].inChannels = channelConfigs[i][0];
#endif
channelInfo[i].outChannels = channelConfigs[i][1];
}
}

    return numChannelConfigs;
}

[/code]

You were leaving out the synth-handling stuff, which is actually important.

#9

Yes, that works too!
