Well, I was using a rather low-end PC recently and noticed that qpaeq was causing stuttering audio and audio hickups in some circumstances. This might have been caused by the low-end hardware, but on the other hand, the Realtek equalizer which is built into the Realtek Control Panel on Microsoft Windows does not produce such issues when using the same hardware. So this was somewhat frustrating. Also, it's annoying that every time you reboot your PC, you have to launch qpaeq to bring your equalizer settings back. > Is it a PyQt > issue/avoidance? No, not really. > From my glancing over this and your previous bug, it's not clear to > me if you tried it to determine if they were problems for you. Yes, I understand your confusion. Anyway, since Alexander E. Patrakov was saying: > <a href="https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2014-March/020174.html">https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pulseaudio-discuss/2014-March/020174.html</a> > A better replacement already exists in the > form of module-ladspa-sink + mbeq + veromix. I tried out another PulseAudio equalizer today, the one from psyke83, it also uses LADSPA and mbeq, see: <a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1308838">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1308838</a> It seems to work fine (using it on a high-end Core i7-6700K at the moment though). And it actually even saves it's settings between reboots. But on the other hand, there's also another thread which seems to suggest that qpaeq would have a better quality than mbeq, see: <a href="http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1378087">http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1378087</a> Is that correct? And since Alexander E. Patrakov said that LADSPA + mbeq would be a better than qpaeq, why don't you just make psyke83's equalizer the official PulseAudio equalizer and integrate that one into pavucontrol?
