You can give a try to following pipeline; gst-launch filesrc location=/tmp/test.flv ! decodebin ! queue ! audiorate ! queue ! autoaudiosink <div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Jan 31, 2011 at 10:10 PM, Tom G <<a href="mailto:tomwg123@gmail.com">tomwg123@gmail.com</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"> Hello, I'm fairly new to g-streamer and have been unable to understand why the audio in my pipeline outputs poorly if I add ! audiorate. 狢 can reproduce with a very simple gst-launch command line. gst-launch filesrc location=/tmp/test.flv ! decodebin ! audiorate ! autoaudiosink That produces audio output that has a constant clicking sound in the background. 狢f I remove the ! audiorate element, then it sounds perfect. I started working with an existing pipeline that somebody else designed and am not even confident I should be using the audiorate element since the normal (non-debug) pipeline outputs to an mpegts. Why would it screw things up though? 狢 would have expected the input audio to already be like a perfect stream and for it to output looking the same as on input. Any help is appreciated. -Tom ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
