Show busy cursor while enumerating audio devices 2020-09-22 12:18:23 +01:00

Improve audio device handling and error recovery
where possible  audio devices that  disappear are not  forgotten until
the user selects another device, this should allow temporarily missing
devices or forgetting  to switch on devices before  starting WSJT-X to
be  handled more  cleanly. If  all else  fails, visiting  the Settings
dialog and  clicking OK should  get things  going again. Note  that we
still  do not  have  a  reliable way  of  detecting  failed audio  out
devices, in that  case selecting another device and  then returning to
the original should work.

Enumerating  audio devices  is expensive  and on  Linux may  take many
seconds per  device. To avoid  lengthy blocking behaviour until  it is
absolutely necessary,  audio devices are  not enumerated until  one of
the "Settings->Audio" device drop-down lists is opened. Elsewhere when
devices  must be  discovered  the  enumeration stops  as  soon as  the
configured device is  discovered. A status bar message  is posted when
audio devices are being enumerated as a reminder that the UI may block
while this is happening.

The message box warning about  unaccounted-for input audio samples now
only triggers when  >5 seconds of audio appears to  be missing or over
provided. Hopefully this will make the warning less annoying for those
that are  using audio sources  with high and/or variable  latencies. A
status  bar message  is still  posted for  any amount  of audio  input
samples  unaccounted for  >1/5 second,  this message  appearing a  lot
should be considered as notification that  there is a problem with the
audio sub-system, system load is  too high, or time synchronization is
stepping the PC clock rather  than adjusting the frequency to maintain
monotonic clock ticks.

Avoid enumerating audio devices until absolutely necessary
Enumerating  audio  devices with  QAudioDeviceInfo::availableDevices()
takes  a  long  time  on  Linux  with  pulseaudio.  This  change  only
enumerates  up  to  the  selected device  when  configuring  and  only
enumerates the whole list when the Settings->Audio tab is current.

This change also warns  with a message box when Tx  is started with no
audio output device configured.

Remove user adjustable audio buffer sizes from Settings
Fixed buffer sizes are  used. Rx use s 3456 x 1st  downsample rate x 5
audio  frames  of  buffer  space.  On Windows  this  means  that  each
chunk (periodSize())  delivered from the  audio stream is  our initial
DSP processing chunk size, thus  matching audio buffer latency exactly
with WSJT-X's  own front  end latency. This  should result  in optimal
resilience to high system loads that might starve the soundcard ADC of
buffers to fill and case dropped audio frames.

For Tx  a buffer sufficient for  1 s of  audio is used at  present, on
Windows  the period  size will  be  set to  1/40 of  that which  gives
reasonably low latency  and plenty of resilience to  high system loads
that might  starve the soundcard DAC  of audio frames to  render. Note
that a 1 s  buffer will make the "Pwr" slider slow  to respond, we may
have to reduce the Tx audio buffer size if this is seen as a problem.

Remove default audio devices from audio configuration
This enforces  an audio input device  in the settings dialog  since we
can't do anything  without an input device. A nil  audio output device
is allowed with a warning.

User configurable audio device buffer sizes
Adjusting these may help with  audio drop-outs, particularly on slower
CPU systems or heavily loaded systems. Smaller buffer sizes leave less
margin for  process interruptions,  larger sizes waste  resources that
could impact other processes.

70b84478f0 Add WW_DIGI to the special activities section. Make necessary changes to
the decoders. Also, an experimental change to the FT4 decoder to base
AP decoding passes on 4-symbol block detection instead of single symbol
detection. This provides about 1 dB improvement on the AWGN channel.
Sensitivity changes on other channels are TBD.

Add option to highlight un-worked grid fields
This  is a  check box  option  in "Settings->Colors"  rather than  new
    highlighting types so un-worked  field highlighting and un-worked grid
    square highlighting are mutually exclusive. The check box state can be
    changed at  any time, no  log rescanning is necessary,  and subsequent
    decoded message highlighting will be according to the check box state.

New UDP messages to close and reconfigure WSJT-X plus more status fields
The Status(1) message acquires the new fields Frequency Tolerance, T/R
Period,  and  Configuration Name.  The  Rx  DF,  Tx DF  fields  become
unsigned (this should be a benign change which is just for correctness
as -ve values have never been possible).

The   Close(6)  message   becomes  bi-directional   allowing  external
applications to gracefully close down WSJT-X instances.

A  new  message SwitchConfiguration(14)  is  provided  that allows  an
external application to  switch the current configuration  of a WSJT-X
instance.

Another  new  message  Configure(15)  is provided  to  allow  external
applications to adjust some key parameters like the mode and submode.

See the  NetworkMessages.hpp header  commentary for full  details. The
UDPExamples/MessageAggregator reference  application has  been updated
to be able to exercise all of the above changes.

Note   that   this   commit   enforces  stricter   checking   on   the
"Settings->Reporting->Allow  UDP  requests"   option,  which  must  be
checked  before  any state  changing  incoming  messages to  a  WSJT-X
instance are processed.

Preparation for UI i18n
Re-enabling the WSJT-X i18n  facilities. This allows translation files
to  be created  for languages  that are  automatically used  to lookup
translatable strings. To enable a  new language the language name must
be added to the CMakeLists.txt LANGUAGES list variable in BCP47 format
(i.e. en_US,  en_GB, pt_PT, ...). Do  one build with the  CMake option
UPDATE_TRANSLATIONS enabled  (do not  leave it enabled  as there  is a
danger of loosing existing translated texts), that will create a fresh
translations/wsjtx_<lang>.ts file which  should be immediately checked
in with the  CMakeLists.txt change. The .ts should then  be updated by
the translator using  the Qt Linguist tool to  add translations. Check
in the  updated .ts file  to complete the initial  translation process
for that language.

To  aid translators  their WIP  .ts file  may be  tested by  releasing
(using the  lrelease tool or  from the Linguist  menu) a .qm  file and
placing  that  .qm  file  in the  current  directory  before  starting
WSJT-X. The translations will be used if the system locale matches the
file name.   If the system  locale does not  match the file  name; the
language may be  overridden by setting the  LANG environment variable.
For  example if  a wsjtx_pt_PT.qm  file  is in  the current  directory
WSJT-X will use it for  translation lookups, regardless of the current
system locale setting, if the LANG variable is set to pt_PT or pt-PT.

On MS Windows from a command prompt:

 set LANG=pt_PT
 C:\WSJT\wsjtx\bin\wsjtx

elsewhere:

 LANG=pt_PT wsjtx
