set_sound_input_source(3)

📦 version 4.4.3.1, in fedora 43, fedora 44

💖 NAME 💖

set_sound_input_source — selects the audio input source. It's part of the Allegro game programming library. This page is set_sound_input_source(3) from the Allegro manual, and we're about to make input-source selection make sense, bestie. ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro.h>

int set_sound_input_source(int source);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so this function selects the audio input source. The source parameter should be one of these values:

  • SOUND_INPUT_MIC — the mic source. 🎤
  • SOUND_INPUT_LINE — the line source. 🎧
  • SOUND_INPUT_CD — the CD source. 💿

That's it. That's the whole vibe for this one. 💅

💅 RETURN VALUE 💅

The function returns zero on success. If the hardware does not provide an input select register (ie. you have no control over the input source), it returns -1. So -1 is the "bestie, the hardware said no" signal. 😭

kisses and bye — this was the set_sound_input_source(3) page from the Allegro manual, Allegro version 4.4.3. The footer didn't show a date, so we're not making one up, periodt. 🫶💖
