Bug Description
Binary package hint: pulseaudio
Some major fixes in this release: http://
First release with glitch-free PA.
* the best new feature, although not directly visible from the outside and often enough not enabled due to artificial limitations on the hardware buffer size of ALSA is time-scheduled playback (aka 'glitch-free'). See http://
* The PA client libraries now interpolate timing information in a more sophisticated fashion, to avoid roundtrips.
* Arbitrary properties can be attached to streams, devices, clients in PA, such as icons, program names, X11 windows
* a new PA startup scheme that should make PA compatible with multiple simultaneous logins by the same user and console applications.
* "Spatial" event sounds, i.e. sound events from UI elements are positioned in space, according to where they were triggered on the screen (click on a button on the left side of the screen and audio comes from the left speaksers, ...) To make use of these features clients need to use the libcanberra event sound library.
* The startup logic has been rewritten to allow file-based capababilites (CAP_SYS_NICE) instead of suid root for acquiring real-time scheduling
* Fix RTP client to adapt to the speed of the sender
* A new module 'module-
* A new switch --start to start PA only if it is not running yet
* Add peak detection monitor/record streams
* Optimize memory consumption
* Lots of other additions, and fixes.
Not sure what the workflow is here, but this is worth it.
