NAME¶

SDL_AudioDevicePaused - Use this function to query if an audio device is paused.

HEADER FILE¶

Defined in SDL3/SDL_audio.h

SYNOPSIS¶

#include "SDL3/SDL.h"

bool SDL_AudioDevicePaused(SDL_AudioDeviceID dev);

DESCRIPTION¶

Unlike in SDL2, audio devices start in an _unpaused_ state, since an app has to bind a stream before any audio will flow.

Physical devices can not be paused or unpaused, only logical devices created through SDL_OpenAudioDevice () can be. Physical and invalid device IDs will report themselves as unpaused here.

FUNCTION PARAMETERS¶

dev

a device opened by SDL_OpenAudioDevice ().

RETURN VALUE¶

Returns true if device is valid and paused, false otherwise.

THREAD SAFETY¶

It is safe to call this function from any thread.

AVAILABILITY¶

This function is available since SDL 3.1.3.
