Sure mp3 would be way better. I just dont know how rtp works. I think its reasonable to use mp3 here. However I dont know how that works for streams and with pulse.

[Bug 411688]
Sending a wav file means a TCP connection between two computers. TCP connections are the most common type of traffic, and the hardware is optimized accordingly. UDP multicast is different, and apparently network hardware is not necessarily as efficient with processing that protocol. Comment #9 seems to suggest that the wifi specification itself forces multicast to be inefficient, so it's not necessarily just the hardware's fault. Starting from PA version 5.0, module-rtp-send should not generate traffic when nothing is playing (it can still be configured to play silence, but paprefs doesn't configure the module that way). If you observe different behaviour, please file a new bug and attach the output of "pactl list". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411688 Title: pulseaudio floods network with multicast packets To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pulseaudio/+bug/411688/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 411688]
You are right that this feature needs to be enabled first to make the bug rise. However I do not think that documentating this bug/behavior solves the problem. I do want to use music streaming, but I cannot do this as my router routes the traffic into the WLAN. Lowering the rate is possibly not a good idea as it results in worse quality. The format is by default "s16be" about which I have no idea what a different format would help. I do not know if the data can somehow be compress further, because this would definitely be an idea, but I dont know the procols internal. So the only left option is to solve the routing. For my personal setup there is no way to fix this on the router side, so the sender pulse module needs to take care of it. Using an ip as destination works perfectly and would be an option to use (which should be added to paprefs). However I tried that the last days and due to dhcp my receiver always gets a new IP and using hostnames would be a better idea. But the module does not seem to support hostnames. So I am wondering if this could be fixed quite simple or needs a whole more work to do. Another option would be to possibly create a port on the localhost and route that to the destination ip/name. And the kernel itself can do the name resolution. However I have no idea about that, but this could at least be a workaround to solve this issue.

To my knowledge RTP can carry pretty much any format. You said on the mailing list that you want to use Kodi to receive the stream, and I don't know what Kodi supports, but I would guess that it supports many formats. Don't get too excited about compressed audio, though. I'm not volunteering to implement it, and it's probably pretty complicated to integrate to PulseAudio. In case someone is willing to take this task, the current "plan" (if you can call it a plan - it's all very fuzzy at the moment) is to use gstreamer to deal with the codecs, but in any case, please bring this topic up on the mailing list before spending too much time implementing it, so that there's an agreement about the design. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411688 Title: pulseaudio floods network with multicast packets To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pulseaudio/+bug/411688/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I know nothing about RTP, but from a user perspective, I have two questions: 1) Transferring a WAV file over the network goes faster than real time (in terms of the audio contained within). Why should the network struggle with uncompressed RTP audio, then? 2) Why are packets generated when nothing is played? If there is no audio activity in PA, there is no need to send any packets.

[Bug 411688]
All problems with RTP module flooding network, Wifi are caused by lack of IGMP support in rtp_send module. When pulseaudio with rtp_recv module is started proper IGMPv2 signalling works like it should: root@orangepione:~# tshark -i eth0 -Y "igmp" Capturing on 'eth0' 117 6.950723148 192.168.254.141 -> 239.255.1.56 IGMPv2 46 Membership Report group 239.255.1.56 177 10.430705605 192.168.254.141 -> 239.255.1.56 IGMPv2 46 Membership Report group 239.255.1.56 215 13.660683494 192.168.254.141 -> 239.255.1.56 IGMPv2 46 Membership Report group 239.255.1.56 Pulseaudio creates Multicast group (I don't use default group). As IGMP signalling is OK - IGMP capable switches enable that multicast group only on ports that need it. If pulseaudio is configured with rtp_send module - there is no IGMP signalling. Looking at code of module-rtp-recv.c we can find: mr4.imr_multiaddr = ((const struct sockaddr_in*) sa)->sin_addr; r = setsockopt(fd, IPPROTO_IP, IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP, , sizeof(mr4)); IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP tells kernel to join multicast group.

[Bug 411688]
I read through the comments, and to me it looks like module-rtp-send doesn't have any flooding bug. The data rate of PCM audio is what it is, and the network hardware isn't always able to handle it. Multicast RTP is not enabled by default. If the user enables it, I don't know what we could possibly do to not "flood" the network. Since this is a common problem for people, there is certainly room for improvement in the UI and documentation so that users don't get so surprised when things don't work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411688 Title: pulseaudio floods network with multicast packets To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pulseaudio/+bug/411688/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Adding to my previous comment: it could be argued that the bug is that we transmit PCM audio instead of compressed audio. Adding support for compressed audio should help with the network stress.

I've also noticed this in the most up to data pulse versions from archlinux. I also cannot use a ttl of 1, as the router does not decrease the value when routing into wlan, as it has the same subnet. Neither does destination ip 24.0.0.1 help. From my side I have no chance to change the router config, because the internet is provided by someone else. What works for me though is to stream the music directly to the destination via destination_ip=192.168.178.x I could also add a menu in paprefs that'd also adress the ip directly, however this is more of a struggle because of the old gtk2 (if anyone here is following the mailing list).

I noticed the same bug in my system ( Ubuntu 14.04.5) while I was trying to set up pulseaudio server in Windows 10 over the local network. In my case network flooding occurs whenever I launch pavucontrol, upload traffics reaches up to 200kb/s and it reduced the local network unusable. When I close it the network attack diminishes.

I am on Ubuntu 14.04.5 platform. I came across the same bug yesterday while trying to set up pulseaudio server on Windows to send audio from my Ubuntu laptop in local network and it rendered the home network unusable. It costed me hours to locate the pest. Dos attack triggered by pavucontrol, when I close it flooding diminishes. I implemented the following workaround `pactl unload-module module-rtp- send` Nobody's patched it for 8 years, so we have to live with this bug and no RTP server until my learning curve reaches a higher level to overcome it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411688 Title: pulseaudio floods network with multicast packets To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/pulseaudio/+bug/411688/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Confirming this bug too. I falsely blamed the provider for an unusable internet connection until I found out that it was my pulseaudio RTP module. BLUSH.

I think I just saw this issue also. I was seeing a lot of traffic over my wireless NIC going directly to one of three Apple AirTunes devices on my work network (the one I had connected to previously). Even though I set Internal Audio Analog Stereo under Sound Preferences/Output tab - so the AirPort was not selected, PulseAudio still was going nuts with traffic to it. Before I had a chance to look into it further, another sysadmin had password-protected the device (apparently others were complaining that they could no longer connect to it to play music and rebooting the AirPort multiple times wasn't helping) and I could immediately see the outgoing traffic on the laptop stopped. I was so excited that I could finally play audio to these horrible proprietary devices (purchasing them wasn't my decision), but now it's password-protected I'm not sure PulseAudio can play to the device any more - even though I know what the device password is. I should point out that the laptop in question was actually running Debian testing, so this likely needs to be dealt with upstream by the PA guys. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411688 Title: pulseaudio floods network with multicast packets To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/411688/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 411688] Re: pulseaudio floods network with multicast packets
Could you possibly explain why is this Low importance? The bug means that anyone running Pulseaudio (which is everyone, correct?) is essentially committing a denial-of-service attack on all machines on their network (unless this only applies to certain configurations). Surely this is at the very least a Major bug?

[Bug 411688] Re: pulseaudio floods network with multicast packets
Fascinating. I did an apt-get install padevchooser which was not installed after the system updated to Karmic and that seemed to turn rtp-send off and the system started behaving. That install pulled in paprefs and zeroconf support. On reboot it started spewing again, and going into paprefs, rtp-send was enabled. However, paprefs allowed me to disable it and on rebooting after doing so, it is still disabled. Any attempt to enable it causes the looping behaviour. It seems to be taking its own broadcasts and responding to them. -- pulseaudio floods network with multicast packets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411688 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you Daniel. That clarifies it. Is there any debug information I can collect that would be helpful. On my test system (AMD Athlon-64, forcedeth NIC driver), trying to enable rtp-send immediately causes the problem, so I have a good place to repro :-) -- pulseaudio floods network with multicast packets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411688 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

See attached file with pulseaudio log debug mode running for a couple of minutes.

[Bug 411688] Re: pulseaudio floods network with multicast packets
If I use padevchooser to specifically choose the internal audio as both default sink and default source, the network traffic is reduces somewhat but not by a lot (about 10%~20%). I can cause pulseaudio to stop flooding the network completely by disabling the rtp-send module using gconf. I'll keep it disabled for now (as I do not have a real need at the moment for audio over the network) unless you want me to debug something. -- pulseaudio floods network with multicast packets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/411688 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
