Concerningn metering, what fonts do you have available? My HT lets you
pick a character to display for metering, blobby things, '>', etc.
Would a string of characters, with the actual meter value at the left
or right, do the trick, do you think?
Yes, thats a good idea to keep things under control resource wise. I
probably should allow the user to pick either a text based meter or an
analog one (if I add it).
This morning I took the meterbridge code and removed all the jack
specific stuff. Since meterbridge uses the Simple DirectMedia Layer
and it is cross platform/open source I was able to get it to compile
on Windows. I am sending random numbers to it (the vu meter for now)
at its normal update rate (10X/sec) and I see the CPU usage blip up to
1% for a fraction of a second every 5 - 7 seconds in Process Explorer.
It is pretty encouraging so far. I am hoping that I can use SDL for
the panadapter too.
I always liked the meterbridge for jack.
