Thanks, I seem to be getting somewhere now...
and for the input case is it:
scheduled IoProcTime - [kAudioDevicePropertySafetyOffset] -
[kAudioDevicePropertyBufferFrameSize] == inInputTime->mSampleTime
scheduled IoProcTime - [kAudioDevicePropertySafetyOffset] -
[kAudioDevicePropertyBufferFrameSize] - [kAudioDevicePropertyLatency]
== analog voltage input at ADC time
(?)
This is correct. Make sure that when you are querying the latency and
safety offset properties that you are doing so on the proper scope
since a device can have different latency and safety offset for input
and output.
Now, with a full duplex HAL AU component I only get one timstamp,
which I assume is the output timestamp. So I guess I can work
backwards from the output time to get scheduled IoProcTime and from
there the ADC time.
True, but I thought the output AU had a means for conveying the input
time stamp too, although I don't know what the API for doing it is.
Another question: Can I rely on AudioTimeStamp::mSampleTime and
AudioTimeStamp::mHostTime always being valid in a HAL and AU HAL
ioProc?
Yes. I believe it would be a bug if that were not true.
