would any one advise cAudio vs openAl

[trollger]

Hi every one I was going to set up sound for irrlicht soon and I was wondering if any one has had any past experience with cAudio

It looks nice, how easy is it to use with irrlicht and is there any reason to use it vs openAl?

One of the big factors for me is how much documentation they have. (I have never done any coding regarding sound)

If any one could give some advice on this matter please respond

cAudio vs openAl

cAudio is just a wrapper for openAL !!!
so the question is: using native openAL or with the help of cAudio...

I for myself use openAL with self made helper functions for my needs (some sort of my own wrapper tho)...
also openAL is pretty easy to use (IMO)...

That's what I'm talking about

Thanks for the rapid response I definitely will use openAl

I've used cAudio. It is very easy to set up and use, and it gives you the ability to load the audio in its own thread. My only issue is that it has no unicode support whatsoever, so I haven't yet decided if I should keep it and heavily modify it, or if I should switch to using plain OpenAL.

Sorry to bring back a thread from the dead, admins.

I am just about to get started right now on compiling the OpenAL library + some functions and helpful classes to make it easy to use with Irrlicht and just easier to use in general.
