[pulseaudio-discuss] How to debug choppy audio in Totem & Mythtv

[Colin Guthrie]

'Twas brillig, and Jeremy Nickurak at 27/01/10 16:53 did gyre and gimble:
> FWIW, mythtv0.22.0+fixes23230 configured with ALSA:pulse, and
> EXPERIMENTALLY_ALLOW_PULSE_AUDIO=1 is working great here. Mythtv
> outputs to pulse via alsa emulation, and pulseaudio plays it fine,
> mixed properly with other sounds on the system, no skipping, even with
> timeshifting, ff/rw, pause/unpause. (the built-in experimentual
> "Pulse:" output stutters constantly)

Yeah, that's basically my experience too (my patch in mdv flips the
logic of EXPERIMENTALLY_ALLOW_PULSE_AUDIO to default to 1, but allow
setting to 0).
