Hi Colin,<div>Thanks, yeah 'pacmd list-sink-inputs' confirms that no resampling is happening.</div><div>One other question: I presume that a sink volume setting for of 100% means no attentuation or amplification is happening, correct?</div> <div>Thanks,</div><div>Josh<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Jul 16, 2011 at 2:43 PM, Colin Guthrie <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gmane@colin.guthr.ie">gmane@colin.guthr.ie</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;"> 'Twas brillig, and Joshua Redstone at 16/07/11 21:35 did gyre and gimble:<br> <div class="im">> Yeah, I'm using TCP because the source audio is generated on a different<br> > machine from the one that has the USB sound card.<br> <br> </div>OK, well I guess that explains that :D<br> <div class="im"><br> > I have a laptop with an internet music player on it, and I have a settop<br> > PC (pretty wimpy) that has a USB audio card connected to my stereo.<br> > I run the music player on my laptop because I want to control the audio<br> > from my laptop, and running the player on the settop and using vnc/nx is<br> > way to slow.<br> <br> </div>Yup that all makes sense :)<br> <div class="im"><br> > So maybe the pulseaudio isn't doing any resampling work and is just<br> > churning to copy bytes around.
