23 \enum QtAudio::Error
24
25 \value NoError No errors have occurred
26 \value OpenError An error occurred opening the audio device
27 \value IOError An error occurred during read/write of audio device. This can happen when
28 e.g. an external audio interface is disconnected.
29 \value UnderrunError Audio data is not being fed to the audio device at a fast enough rate
30 \value FatalError A non-recoverable error has occurred, the audio device is not usable at this time.

33/*!
34 \enum QtAudio::State
35
36 \value ActiveState Audio data is being processed, this state is set after start() is called
37 and while audio data is available to be processed.
38 \value SuspendedState The audio stream is in a suspended state. Entered after suspend() is called
39 or when another stream takes control of the audio device. In the later case,
40 a call to resume will return control of the audio device to this stream. This
41 should usually only be done upon user request.
42 \value StoppedState The audio device is closed, and is not processing any audio data
43 \value IdleState This state indicates that the audio system is temporarily idle due to
44 a buffering condition.
45 For a QAudioSink, IdleState means there isn’t enough data available
46 from the QIODevice to read.
47 For a QAudioSource, IdleState is entered when the ring buffer that
48 feeds the QIODevice becomes full. In that case, any new audio data
49 arriving from the audio interface is discarded until the application
50 reads from the QIODevice, which frees up space in the buffer.

54 \enum QtAudio::VolumeScale
55
56 This enum defines the different audio volume scales.
57
58 \value LinearVolumeScale Linear scale. \c 0.0 (0%) is silence and \c 1.0 (100%) is full
59 volume. All Qt Multimedia classes that have an audio volume use
60 a linear scale.
61 \value CubicVolumeScale Cubic scale. \c 0.0 (0%) is silence and \c 1.0 (100%) is full
62 volume.
63 \value LogarithmicVolumeScale Logarithmic Scale. \c 0.0 (0%) is silence and \c 1.0 (100%) is
64 full volume. UI volume controls should usually use a logarithmic
65 scale.
66 \value DecibelVolumeScale Decibel (dB, amplitude) logarithmic scale. \c -200 is silence
67 and \c 0 is full volume.

76 Converts an audio \a volume \a from a volume scale \a to another, and returns the result.
77
78 Depending on the context, different scales are used to represent audio volume. All Qt Multimedia
79 classes that have an audio volume use a linear scale, the reason is that the loudness of a
80 speaker is controlled by modulating its voltage on a linear scale. The human ear on the other
81 hand, perceives loudness in a logarithmic way. Using a logarithmic scale for volume controls
82 is therefore appropriate in most applications. The decibel scale is logarithmic by nature and
83 is commonly used to define sound levels, it is usually used for UI volume controls in
84 professional audio applications. The cubic scale is a computationally cheap approximation of a
85 logarithmic scale, it provides more control over lower volume levels.
86
87 The following example shows how to convert the volume value from a slider control before passing
88 it to a QMediaPlayer. As a result, the perceived increase in volume is the same when increasing
89 the volume slider from 20 to 30 as it is from 50 to 60:
