reassign 624451 pulseaudio thanks Hello, The fact that your audio quality suffers regardless of how PulseAudio is used by VLC (through libpulse or through alsa plugins) points very much at a problem inside PulseAudio. I can only recommend you don't use PulseAudio then. Reassigning anyway.

Try vlc -A alsa and vlc -A pulse The previous version was 1.1.3-1squeeze1 I just reinstalled vlc and tried with -A alsa and -A pulse, and they sound the same and really really bad.

Bug#624451: vlc: Audio quality (of mpeg radio stream) degraded beyond acceptable.
Package: vlc Version: 1.1.7-3 Severity: important After an 'apt-get upgrade' (which upgraded vlc), the sound of my radio station (a premium paid-for 'MPEG 1.0 layer III, 256 kbit/s, 44100 Hz joint-stereo' stream), started to sound HORRIBLE. Like really really cheap. I detected that there was much less clear high-tone, less depth and less stereo and that everything sounded like there was a slight echo (as if standing in room without furnature). I then tried to play an .mp3 file from harddisk and it had the same sound quality. I could compare this with playing it with mpg123 which sounded good to my ears (at least, sounded like this is how it was encoded in the file). Of course I tried to change preferences to see if I accidently had enabled some audio filtering, but this wasn't the case as far as I can tell. I tried uninstalling everything related to vlc and reinstalling, but it stays unacceptable. I have no removed vlc from my system and am using mpg123 from a command line to play my radion stations, very much not desirable, but the quality of vlc has dropped far below what is tolerable. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.38-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages vlc depends on: ii libaa1 1.4p5-38 ascii art library ii libavcodec525:0.6.2-0.1 library to encode decode multimedi ii libavutil50 5:0.6.2-0.1 avutil shared libraries - runtime ii libc6 2.11.2-11Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libfreetype62.4.4-1 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libfribidi0 0.19.2-1 Free Implementation of the Unicode ii libgcc1 1:4.6.0-2GCC support library ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1 7.10-4 A free implementation of the OpenG ii libqtcore4 4:4.7.2-3Qt 4 core module ii libqtgui4 4:4.7.2-3Qt 4 GUI module ii libsdl-image1.2 1.2.10-2+b2 image loading library for Simple D ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.14-6.3 Simple DirectMedia Layer ii libstdc++6 4.6.0-2 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libtar 1.2.11-7 C library for manipulating tar arc ii libva-x11-1 1.0.8-3 Video Acceleration (VA) API for Li ii libva1 1.0.8-3 Video Acceleration (VA) API for Li ii libvlccore4 1.1.7-3 base library for VLC and its modul ii libx11-62:1.4.3-1X11 client-side library ii libx11-xcb1 2:1.4.3-1Xlib/XCB interface library ii libxcb-keysyms1 0.3.6-1 utility libraries for X C Binding ii libxcb-randr0 1.7-2X C Binding, randr extension ii libxcb-shm0 1.7-2X C Binding, shm extension ii libxcb-xv0 1.7-2X C Binding, xv extension ii libxcb1 1.7-2X C Binding ii libxext62:1.2.0-2X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxpm4 1:3.5.9-1X11 pixmap library ii ttf-freefont20100919-1 Freefont Serif, Sans and Mono True ii vlc-nox 1.1.7-3 multimedia player and streamer (wi ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages vlc recommends: ii vlc-plugin-notify1.1.7-3 LibNotify plugin for VLC ii vlc-plugin-pulse 1.1.7-3 PulseAudio plugin for VLC ii xdg-utils1.1.0~rc1-2 desktop integration utilities from Versions of packages vlc suggests: pn mozilla-plugin-vlcnone (no description available) pn videolan-doc none (no description available) Versions of packages vlc-nox depends on: ii liba52-0.7.40.7.4-15 library for decoding ATSC A/52 str ii libasound2 1.0.23-2.1 shared library for ALSA applicatio ii libass4 0.9.11-1 library for SSA/ASS subtitles rend ii libavahi-client30.6.29-1 Avahi client library ii libavahi-common30.6.29-1 Avahi common library ii libavc1394-00.5.3-1+b2 control IEEE 1394 audio/video devi ii libavcodec525:0.6.2-0.1 library to encode decode multimedi ii libavformat52 5:0.6.2-0.1 ffmpeg file format library ii libavutil50 5:0.6.2-0.1 avutil shared libraries - runtime ii libc6 2.11.2-11Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcaca00.99.beta17-1colour ASCII art library ii libcddb21.3.2-2 library to access CDDB
