This page is to discuss possible future features along with some implementation details. Lengthy discussions will probably get moved to their own page.
Possibly migrating to a single file decoding solution such as libavformat.
Reduces library dependency count
Increases playable formats
I specifically want m4a/aac playback in our next version -

User can recompile library to add new format support to an old version of mixxx
range precision limited by MIDI 7-bit value specification
it's impossible to bind different midi controller to a value
it's not possible to add a new channel Focus, this channel would send event to the channel you have focused (with two button to select channel)
midi input value could be computed, for example I added a Rot64 option, that increase the value if midival > 64 and decrease if midival < 64 (a patch is already done for this)
new
XML file mapping format, allowing us to specify option easier (Controller Inverted, Rot64, Value Range)
example xml file:
<controller>
<group>ChannelA</group>
<value>123</value>
<port>1</port>
<range begin=0 end=127>
<acceleration>42</acceleration>
<sensitivity>42</sensitivity>
<option>Rot64</option>
<option>Invert</option>
</controller>
* add one class who does the mapping between event (midi,kbd,osc), and the real value.
Should be easy to map a plugged in device through the user interface
Should be easy to write more mappings for more devices (i.e. sensible xml format)
Shouldn't affect stability for people not using midi devices
