Hey Guys,
I am using pulseaudio for years now, but since Version 14, maybe 15 there is a
crackling in the rtp
stream. I've setup RTP just with paprefs, enable the sender and local receiver
on a separate audio
device.
I know that I am reporting this really late and the bug is there for some years
now. I hoped this
gets eventually fixed, but it did not. I am using the latest archlinux
pulseaudio.
Are you guys aware of the issue, does it also happen to you? It is just a tiny
crackling, but you
can hear in on good audio boxes. It sound a bit like the vinyl sound, just not
so often. You can
hear it on the sender via loopback and on all other receivers as well.
I had a similar (maybe the same?) problem - soft crackling and hissing, almost
like old vinyl,
sometimes also like a clipping sound effect.
Mine was a bug that was resolved in recent versions of pulseaudio, and with the
latest pulseaudio
version that is shipped with my distribution (Debian), the problem is gone
("pulseaudio --version"
shows "pulseaudio 16.1").
The most frustrating part was that it almost seemed as nobody else was hitting
this problem, because
I could not manage to find anything on google. For a long time I also suspected
something related to
rtp streaming and/or resampling, but in the end, it was this bug... and as if
to proof what I just
said ... I cannot find the bug report for it right now ... if I find it, I will
amend it to this
email string...
Cheers,
Chris.
Cheers
Nico
