Hi,
I'm new of pulseaudio and I started to use it since 2 months. I have some
questions about the differences in terms of available modules between built
from source and installed from package.
I'm using Debian 8.0 and Ubuntu 14.04 both at 64 bit, very similar OS.
If I install pulseaudio 5.0 from package I have available only 9 modules
(module-udev-detect module-native-protocol-unix module-stream-restore module-
device-restore module-default-device-restore module-rescue-streams module-
always-sink module-null-sink module-suspend-on-idle module-position-event-
sounds) while by building it from source I have 23 modules (module-device-
restore module-stream-restore module-card-restore module-augment-properties
module-switch-on-port-available module-udev-detect module-alsa-card module-
bluetooth-policy module-bluetooth-discover module-bluez5-discover module-esound-
protocol-unix module-native-protocol-unix module-default-device-restore module-
rescue-streams module-always-sink module-intended-roles module-suspend-on-idle
module-console-kit module-position-event-sounds module-role-cork module-filter-
heuristics module-filter-apply).
Moreover, I also installed latest pulseaudio 6.0 from source and I have 13
modules (module-udev-detect module-alsa-card module-esound-protocol-unix module-
native-protocol-unix module-stream-restore module-device-restore module-default-
device-restore module-rescue-streams module-always-sink module-suspend-on-idle
module-position-event-sounds module-bluetooth-discover module-bluez5-discover).
For building from source I used the following command line
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --disable-
bluez4 --disable-rpath --with-module-dir=/usr/lib/pulse/modules
1) How can I choose which modules to install?
2) Is it right that the resampling profiles src-sinc-best-quality src-sinc-
medium-quality src-sinc-fastest src-zero-order-hold src-linear are deprecated
since pulseaudio 6.0?
3) When building from source option is --enable-neon-opt Enable NEON the
only performance improvement that I can enable?
Thank you very much
Salvatore
