Installation

Single-File

1. Download the SecretLabNAudio.zip file from the releases page
2. Extract bin/SecretLabNAudio.dll from the archive into the global plugins directory
   • Linux: ~/.config/SCP Secret Laboratory/LabAPI/plugins/global/
   • Windows: %appdata%/SCP Secret Laboratory/LabAPI/plugins/global/
3. Restart the server

Important

The plugin must be placed in the global plugins directory to ensure that embedded dependencies are loaded. If you have a global plugin depending on SecretLabNAudio, rename it so it loads after SecretLabNAudio.

Modular

1. Download the SecretLabNAudio.Core.dll file from the releases page
2. Download the SecretLabNAudio.zip file from the releases page
3. Extract the necessary DLLs from the bin/ directory
   • See the table below for what you need
   • Place dependencies into the dependencies directory
     • Linux: ~/.config/SCP Secret Laboratory/LabAPI/dependencies/<port>/
     • Windows: %appdata%/SCP Secret Laboratory/LabAPI/dependencies/<port>/
   • Place plugins into the plugins directory
     • Linux: ~/.config/SCP Secret Laboratory/LabAPI/plugins/<port>/
     • Windows: %appdata%/SCP Secret Laboratory/LabAPI/plugins/<port>/
4. Restart the server

Modules

To support reading from some file formats, install the modules you need.

FFmpeg supports effectively all formats at the cost of running as a separate process. The FFmpeg module's APIs must be invoked separately.

Usage	Plugin	Dependencies
required	(none)	SecretLabNAudio.Core NAudio.Core
mp3	SecretLabNAudio.NLayer	NLayer NLayer.NAudioSupport
ogg	SecretLabNAudio.NVorbis	NVorbis NAudio.Vorbis System.ValueTuple
most formats	SecretLabNAudio.MediaFoundation*	NAudio.Wasapi*
FFmpeg	SecretLabNAudio.FFmpeg**	(none)

Note

*MediaFoundation is only available on Windows.

**FFmpeg itself is not shipped with SecretLabNAudio. See the wiki on how to install it.

Development

Simply install the SecretLabNAudio.Core package from NuGet. You can also add the SecretLabNAudio.FFmpeg package, which references the former one.

Manual installation:

1. Reference the SecretLabNAudio.Core.dll file from the releases page
2. Install the NAudio.Core package from NuGet

Caution

Most official NAudio packages are Windows-specific. Use the NAudio.Core package for cross-platform support.

Important

If you reference other NAudio packages, make sure you copy those dependencies to the LabAPI dependencies directory.
