Re: [pulseaudio-discuss] redirect output to headless machine
Ok, i got alsa working, output redirecting to the headless machine works and the cpu problem is fixed. this option did it: no-cpu-limit = yes theres a newer pulseaudio avaiable that has a fix (no concrete information), but for now i will stick with the ubuntu 9.04 one. what is a bit akward is that the two machines exchange ~350kbps on port 4713 even if no sound is playing. even if its not working perfectly, i would like to ask how the mic input can be redirected as well. with the current configuration (host1 = system that i work on) (host2 = headless system that does the output and (future) input) i can select pulseaudio server as mic input in the ubuntu sound dialog on host1, but so far nothing gets recorded when i speak? is mic input handled automatically via the working network connection or are there any other settings? -- GMX DSL: Internet-, Telefon- und Handy-Flat ab 19,99 EUR/mtl.

I didn't check this, but I guess the tunnel sink doesn't shut down the stream when it's not in use, so it transmits silence. There's probably no reason to do that, so filing a ticket for the bug would be a good idea (if no such ticket exists yet). even if its not working perfectly, i would like to ask how the mic input can be redirected as well. with the current configuration (host1 = system that i work on) (host2 = headless system that does the output and (future) input) What do you mean by future? If the mic isn't there yet, you of course can't record from it... i can select pulseaudio server as mic input in the ubuntu sound dialog on host1, but so far nothing gets recorded when i speak? is mic input handled automatically via the working network connection or are there any other settings? All devices on host2 should be visible on host1, including microphones. You can check whether the mic is actually available on host1 by running pavucontrol and opening the Input Devices tab. If the mic is there, but your record application still doesn't seem to get any data from there, open the Record tab in pavucontrol while recording, and right click the record stream that should be visible there. The context menu allows you to move the stream to the correct source. That hopefully solves your problem. -- Tanu Kaskinen ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
Re: [pulseaudio-discuss] redirect output to headless machine
Hi, i would like to redirect output off all applications to another machine that has no monitor attached. snip any ideas whats wrong? You try to make the connection in the wrong direction. Your sound hardware on host2 won't be making any connections to your applications - it's the other way around. So, do this: Load module-native-protocol-tcp on host2 like you did on host1 previously. Also load module-zeroconf-publish on host2. Then on host1 run paprefs and enable Make discoverable PulseAudio network sound devices available locally. Now all hardware on host2 should be visible also on host1. Ive changed the configs and now there is a network connection from host1 to host2, but if i set sound playback to pulseaudio sound server on host1 pulseaudio on host2 exits with: pulseaudio I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE. I: caps.c: Dropping root privileges. I: caps.c: Limited capabilities successfully to CAP_SYS_NICE. Soft CPU time limit exhausted, terminating.
