Subject: playlist: add simple corking infrastructure for audio policy
X-Git-Tag: 2.1.0-git~3517
X-Git-Url: https://git.sesse.net/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=046570ac9a35bc0e6e49c59a6bbb5ab86c634ee5;p=vlc

playlist: add simple corking infrastructure for audio policy

Depending on the system, this can be called ducking, focus, policy...
But it basically boils down to pausing playback automatically when a
higher priority audio stream starts, typically a voice call.

Resuming playback automatically when communications are over would be
possible as well. But that seems unfriendly to me, so I skipped it.
