GET_SOUND_INPUT_CAP_PARM(3alleg4)

✨ NAME ✨

get_sound_input_cap_parm — she detects whether the recording parameters you're asking for are even supported. Bestie, this is from the Allegro manual, the Allegro game programming library 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro.h>

int get_sound_input_cap_parm(int rate, int bits, int stereo);

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so real talk: this function checks whether the recording frequency, the number of bits, and the mono/stereo mode you picked are supported by the current audio driver — and like, how they're supported, because apparently there's nuance and we love that for us 💅

🦋 RETURN VALUE 🦋

The way this function hands you back a whole personality test for your recording setup, no cap. It returns one of these:

• 0 — it is impossible to record in this format 😭
• 1 — recording is possible, but audio output will be suspended 💀
• 2 — recording is possible at the same time as playing other sounds (full duplex sound card, main character energy fr fr 👑)
• -n — the sampling rate isn't supported, but rate n would work instead ✨

Not me being obsessed with the -n one — she's literally telling you which rate to use instead. That's a supportive icon right there 🫶
