A NOTE has been added to this issue. ====================================================================== <https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=2147> ====================================================================== Reported By: Gene Heskett Assigned To: tiwai ====================================================================== Project: ALSA - driver Issue ID: 2147 Category: PCI - atiixp Reproducibility: always Severity: major Priority: normal Status: assigned Distribution: FC5, uptodate Kernel Version: 2.6.16-1.2111_FC5 ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 05-23-2006 03:52 CEST Last Modified: 05-28-2006 06:29 CEST ====================================================================== Summary: lack of full duplex operation for ati-ixp chipset. Description: skype, ekiga, audacity, and generally any program that needs to both transmit and receive, using isolated paths, fails in playback when recording. In skype, I sound great at the far end, but reception may or may not work, with emphasis on the not. What I hear in the phones, or in the speakers, sounds like what you would get if you took a sentence of spoken words, break it up into say 5ms pieces, and play them at maybe 10 of these little snippets per second, so that the resultant sound is broken up to the point of no comprehension, and stretched in time by a considerable amount. In audacity, simultanious playback, or play one track while recording another, likewise fails in that only very short snippets of the played track are output to the phones or speakers. Likewise, ekiga suffers from this same effect, I'm told I sound great on teh other end, but I can't hear more than half a word occasionally. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- rlrevell - 05-28-06 06:13 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "mv /etc/alsa/pcm/front.conf /etc/alsa/pcm/old.front.conf" No, that's bad advice - I would change it back. It's not documented because the user is not supposed to have to change it. If you do it's a bug. Unfortunately there is a lot of bad information out there. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Gene Heskett - 05-28-06 06:29 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Then what was I supposed to do with that links information? -- Cheers, Gene Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 05-23-06 03:52 Gene Heskett New Issue 05-23-06 03:52 Gene Heskett Distribution => FC5, uptodate 05-23-06 03:52 Gene Heskett Kernel Version => 2.6.16-1.2111_FC5 05-23-06 15:01 tiwai Note Added: 0009934 05-23-06 16:46 Gene Heskett Note Added: 0009938 05-23-06 17:24 tiwai Note Added: 0009941 05-23-06 18:07 Gene Heskett Note Added: 0009943 05-23-06 19:14 tiwai Note Added: 0009947 05-28-06 03:08 Gene Heskett Note Added: 0009985 05-28-06 03:20 Gene Heskett Note Added: 0009986 05-28-06 03:22 rlrevell Note Added: 0009987 05-28-06 03:58 Raymond Note Added: 0009988 05-28-06 04:04 Raymond Note Edited: 0009988 05-28-06 04:05 Raymond Note Edited: 0009988 05-28-06 04:24 rlrevell Note Added: 0009989 05-28-06 04:51 Gene Heskett Note Added: 0009990 05-28-06 05:10 rlrevell Note Added: 0009991 05-28-06 05:27 Gene Heskett Note Added: 0009992 05-28-06 05:34 rlrevell Note Added: 0009993 05-28-06 05:37 Gene Heskett Note Added: 0009994 05-28-06 06:13 rlrevell Note Added: 0009995 05-28-06 06:29 Gene Heskett Note Added: 0009998 ====================================================================== _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
