| Post subject: | Ubuntu, PulseAudio and Cool VL music |
I recently went back to Linux, Ubuntu 12.10 in particular, and I was having the hardest time finding a sound configuration where the music streams did not lag by 2-3 minutes as configured by the standard Ubuntu PulseAudio and ALSA configuration. I found something that works. First make sure ESD is loaded: sudo apt-get install esound-common libao-common libao4 pulseaudio-esound-compat Then edit the sound section of cool_vl_viewer like: ## - Avoids using any OpenAL audio driver. export LL_BAD_OPENAL_DRIVER=x ## - Avoids using any FMOD audio driver. #export LL_BAD_FMOD_DRIVER=x ## - Avoids using the FMOD ESD audio driver. # export LL_BAD_FMOD_ESD=x ## - Avoids using the FMOD OSS audio driver. export LL_BAD_FMOD_OSS=x ## - Avoids using the FMOD ALSA audio driver. export LL_BAD_FMOD_ALSA=x You may need to log off Ubuntu (or otherwise restart PulseAudio). Works wonderfully! |

I won't recommend using OpenAL... The quality of the sound is poor when compared to FMOD... As for ALSA and PulseAudio, they both suck big time as well ! Try OSS v4 and get rid of all your sound demons (PulseAudio, ESD, Jackit, etc...): with its transparent mixer, OSS makes sound demons useless and prevent any delay in the sound playback. |
