[pulseaudio-discuss] Improvement suggestion
Hi! This might be the wrong place but I didn't find anything better. I'm using ubuntu 11.04 with pulseaudio 0.9.21-63-gd3efa-dirty. I had severe problems getting a monitor to work because I didn't understand that the button with a loudspeaker on the input tab in the volume control was something one could click on. It looks exactly the same whether the monitor is muted or not. I think there is room for improvement here, some kind of indication that the current state is muted and one can fix it by clicking here would be appreciated! Thanks! // Olof ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss

This does not make sense - Ubuntu 11.04 (as in Natty, the development version) is having 0.9.22 based Pulseaudio.

Are you talking about pavucontrol? I agree that the buttons could be clearer. -- David Henningsson, Canonical Ltd. http://launchpad.net/~diwic ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss

I played with a pulseaudio some time ago, maybe that why the version is wrong. But it's still 0.9.21-63-gd3efa-dirty after doing a reinstall of everything pulseaudio-related with the synaptic package manager.

I invoke in through the icon in the taskbar and then a process pavucontrol starts so yes, I guess so. -- David Henningsson, Canonical Ltd. http://launchpad.net/~diwic ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
[pulseaudio-discuss] padevchooser quickly choose output device
In the left-click menu of the padevchooser applet, I see a submenu for Default Sink that lists these three items: * No Network Devices Found (greyed-out) * Default * Other... In the Output tab of my Sound Preferences application, I see these options. * Internal Audio Analog Stereo (my desktop speakers) * HP Digital Stereo Headset Analog Stereo (my USB headphones) Should I be able to see these somewhere in the padevchooser applet menu? padevchooser was recommended by a commenter on this Ubuntu Brainstorm suggestion: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/23754/ It would be great if this applet was capable of what is depicted in the poster's screenshot mockup. I am running Ubuntu 10.10. Karl ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss

I don't know. I have never used padevchooser. padevchooser was recommended by a commenter on this Ubuntu Brainstorm suggestion: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/23754/ It would be great if this applet was capable of what is depicted in the poster's screenshot mockup. padevchooser is deprecated, we don't recommend the program for anyone (I don't remember the reasons - it was something about padevchooser doing stupid things). There will be no new features in padevchooser. Vote for the brainstorm idea, it sounds like a reasonable improvement to me. -- Tanu ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
