118 * This function opens the audio device with the desired parameters, and
119 * returns 0 if successful, placing the actual hardware parameters in the
120 * structure pointed to by 'obtained'. If 'obtained' is NULL, the audio
121 * data passed to the callback function will be guaranteed to be in the
122 * requested format, and will be automatically converted to the hardware
123 * audio format if necessary. This function returns -1 if it failed
124 * to open the audio device, or couldn't set up the audio thread.
126 * When filling in the desired audio spec structure,
127 * 'desired->freq' should be the desired audio frequency in samples-per-second.
128 * 'desired->format' should be the desired audio format.
129 * 'desired->samples' is the desired size of the audio buffer, in samples.
130 * This number should be a power of two, and may be adjusted by the audio
131 * driver to a value more suitable for the hardware. Good values seem to
132 * range between 512 and 8096 inclusive, depending on the application and
133 * CPU speed. Smaller values yield faster response time, but can lead
134 * to underflow if the application is doing heavy processing and cannot
135 * fill the audio buffer in time. A stereo sample consists of both right
136 * and left channels in LR ordering.
137 * Note that the number of samples is directly related to time by the
138 * following formula: ms = (samples*1000)/freq
139 * 'desired->size' is the size in bytes of the audio buffer, and is

153 * be enabled for playing by calling SDL_PauseAudio(0) when you are ready
