[pulseaudio-discuss] Pulseaudio Delay with Mythtv

[Colin Guthrie]

'Twas brillig, and Mark Greenwood at 19/04/09 11:02 did gyre and gimble:
> This must be something that has been recently introduced. I run a mythtv box with pulseaudio (using PA 0.9.10 and mythtv 0.21) and have no sync issues at all.
> 
> That setup simply has the default ALSA output configured to be 'pulse' and mythtv is configured to use  ALSA:default as its output. Have you tried that? Maybe it works better..??

Yeah I had a little play on my 0.21 install and it seemed to work fine 
for me on movie playback etc, although the logs were full of underrun 
errors, I didn't really hear any problems.

The direct pulse plugin did cause a noticeable delay tho', so I'd like 
to see if I can make it work better to see if it get down to the low 
latency of 20-50ms that Daniel is keen to see.
