[hpsdr] OZY-JANUS and software implementation?

[Bill Tracey]

The basic reason I've not done a Windows sound driver for Janus is I 
had no interest in learning how to do Windows audio drivers and we 
did not need one to get Janus working with PowerSDR.  There is also a 
side benefit in that we have more control over setup and buffering of 
the data -- in essence we skip the layers of Windows audio code and 
handle the data our self.  This approach does have the significant 
down side that code has to be modified to work with Janus.

I'm willing to support anyone that want to take on doing a Windows 
audio driver for Janus -- it is not that I think it is a bad idea, 
it's just that I have no interest in doing it.

Cheers,

Bill (kd5tfd)
