Open un33k opened this issue 6 months ago • 1 comments

Description:

Summary

  • Implements zero-channel BlackHole variant as an audio termination device (/dev/null for audio)
  • Updates installation documentation to separate standard variants from the experimental 0ch variant
  • Removes 0ch from standard installer build loop to prevent accidental distribution
  • Adds dedicated installer script for 0ch variant with proper warnings

Changes

  • Installer/create_installer.sh: Remove 0ch from standard build loop
  • README.md: Add manual build instructions for 0ch variant with clear warnings
  • scripts/create_0ch_installer.sh: New dedicated installer script for 0ch variant
  • Previous commits added the core zero-channel driver implementation

Test plan

  • [ ] Verify standard installers (2ch, 16ch, etc.) build correctly without 0ch
  • [ ] Test manual 0ch build instructions work as documented
  • [ ] Confirm 0ch installer script creates working package
  • [ ] Validate 0ch variant appears as audio termination device in Audio MIDI Setup
