From c6c6e3324dd9d5d864b6146ca7a6c6e6369978a6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Robinson Date: Thu, 11 Aug 2016 23:20:35 -0700 Subject: Decode directly from B-Format to HRTF instead of a cube Last time this attempted to average the HRIRs according to their contribution to a given B-Format channel as if they were loudspeakers, as well as averaging the HRIR delays. The latter part resulted in the loss of the ITD (inter-aural time delay), a key component of HRTF. This time, the HRIRs are averaged similar to above, except instead of averaging the delays, they're applied to the resulting coefficients (for example, a delay of 8 would apply the HRIR starting at the 8th sample of the target HRIR). This does roughly double the IR length, as the largest delay is about 35 samples while the filter is normally 32 samples. However, this is still smaller the original data set IR (which was 256 samples), it also only needs to be applied to 4 channels for first-order ambisonics, rather than the 8-channel cube. So it's doing twice as much work per sample, but only working on half the number of samples. Additionally, since the resulting HRIRs no longer rely on an extra delay line, a more efficient HRTF mixing function can be made that doesn't use one. Such a function can also avoid the per-sample stepping parameters the original uses. --- OpenAL32/Include/alMain.h | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'OpenAL32') diff --git a/OpenAL32/Include/alMain.h b/OpenAL32/Include/alMain.h index 3b6113ef..3d099ca2 100644 --- a/OpenAL32/Include/alMain.h +++ b/OpenAL32/Include/alMain.h @@ -599,9 +599,10 @@ struct ALCdevice_struct ALCenum Hrtf_Status; /* HRTF filter state for dry buffer content */ - HrtfState Hrtf_State[8]; - HrtfParams Hrtf_Params[8]; + HrtfState Hrtf_State[4]; + HrtfParams Hrtf_Params[4]; ALuint Hrtf_Offset; + ALuint Hrtf_IrSize; /* UHJ encoder state */ struct Uhj2Encoder *Uhj_Encoder; -- cgit v1.2.3
