The rate is based on what you configured with the module arguments, or if you didn't configure anything, then it's the default rate that is configured in the client machine's daemon.conf. If the tunnel rate is 44.1 kHz, and you play a 48 kHz stream to the tunnel sink, resampling will happen on the client machine. -- Tanu https://www.patreon.com/tanuk ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
Re: [pulseaudio-discuss] PulseAudio Network Sink: Respect alternative sample rate and format
A bit unlucky but at least now I know that the tunnel sink doesn't switch the sample rate – after you initiate a server connection, right? So, to be sure, what happens when I start a 48 kHz stream on my client? > But I’m afraid my client could still be sending a resampled 41,1 kHz signal > to the server. > Also, no idea if the 24-bit format is preserved or cut to 16-bit (I play a > lot video tracks in 24-bit). Your other suggested method via hard coding the PA remote server doesn‘t work for my setup because I want to use a native sound card + usb sound card on the client too. Thanks for your highly appreciated response and sorry for my late answer now! 24.07.2017 22:20 Tanu Kaskinen: > On Sun, 2017-07-23 at 02:59 +0200, Maximilian Böhm wrote: >> Hello, I’m very happy that I finally got PulseAudio’s awesome network >> sink feature set up.

So you have loaded module-tunnel-sink on the client? The tunnel sink doesn't currently support switching the rate depending on what applications play to it. Do you use any local sound cards on the client? If not, then you could set "default-server = server_hostname_or_ip" in /etc/pulse/client.conf. Then all applications on the client machine will connect directly to the server machine. The sample rate that the server will then automatically change depending on the applications. -- Tanu https://www.patreon.com/tanuk ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
[pulseaudio-discuss] PulseAudio Network Sink: Respect alternative sample rate and format
Hello, I’m very happy that I finally got PulseAudio’s awesome network sink feature set up. Works so far, but the AV receiver on the other computer tells me it gets 41,1 kHz whereas my input in the sink from my client computer is 48 kHz (movies). On both computers, the /etc/pulse/daemon.conf is configured like so: default-sample-format = s24le default-sample-rate = 44100 alternate-sample-rate = 48000 If I set the default sample rate to 48 kHz on the server, the AV receiver gets 48 kHz as well. But I’m afraid my client could still be sending a resampled 41,1 kHz signal to the server. Also, no idea if the 24-bit format is preserved or cut to 16-bit (I play a lot video tracks in 24-bit). My preferred setup would be one in which the server switches from 48 kHz to 41,1 kHz dependent on how it gets input, like a desktop. BTW, this works flawlessly over a direct S/PDIF connection from my computers to the AV receiver. I can’t find any documentation on this. Would appreciate your help. ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
