Deprecation Announcement

[EHfive]

Since I have already switched to PipeWire and I don't want to pay further efforts on this. I am going to deprecate this project. The repo will be archived on January 25.

Although the modules are still working on current PulseAudio Releases(12.0 - 14.1) and later API compatible releases. I would recommend you to switch to vanilla PulseAudio or PipeWire.
There is a WIP MR adding extra A2DP codecs support on PulseAudio https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/merge_requests/440, PulseAudio users may count on this.

I hope ppa will be updated for 21.04, new pulseaudio version is not released, so 21.04 will have vanilla pulseaudio without codecs.

[soredake]

@berglh will you update ppa to 21.04 for the last time?

[bcremer]

Thanks for all the work you put in this on the last 2+ years.

@berglh will you update ppa to 21.04 for the last time?

@soredake Absolutely. I had a feeling that LDAC wasn't being included in the original MR for PulseAudio, but it now looks like the MR has a lease of new life. We'll keep an eye on this MR, if it's landed and functional for 21.04, I won't bother though.

@EHfive and @berglh Thank you so much for your effort on this repo! I've been enjoying ldac so much!

Glad it'll now be implemented in a more official way so that more people will be able to enjoy good audio:)

if it's landed and functional for 21.04

Feature freeze will happen soon :(

@EHfive Thanks for all your personal help and guidance for bringing your excellent work to the Ubuntu users.
@soredake I will build closer to the release date, open a new issue and tag me in it when it's launch day. I'll upgrade my laptop and get it tested and built.

Sorry to ask, but are there any other stable alternatives we can use to stream AptX or LDAC for now?
