Hello, I have already solved this issue once, but forgot how I did it.... After installing openSUSE 12.1 a problem occured again I once solved. When I use my Logitec webcam C270 my voice is by far too high with Skype. I also use pulseaudio. I have tried to use ~/.asoundrc with the following content, but it did not work. How can I adjust the sample rate of the usbmic now? And, how do I get the Alsa name like "usbmic", what Alsa command tells me the device names? Thanks in advance Malte .asoundrc: #pcm.pulse { # type pulse # } # ctl.pulse { # type pulse #} #pcm.!default { # type pulse # } # ctl.!default { # type pulse #} pcm.usbmic { type rate slave { pcm "hw:1,0" rate 16000 } converter "samplerate_best" } #slave { # pcm "hw:0,0" # period_time 0 # buffer_time 0 # period_size 2048 # jm: much smoother than 1024/8192! # buffer_size 64000 # rate 44100 # } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
