Hi tanuk, Let me quote piece of your post: "Are there any real problems with this rewinding, like the beginning of the stream disappearing, or an audible drop-out in the audio? The sink buffer has to be always rewound when a new stream is created, because initially the sink buffer contains silence. That silence has to be overwritten with the stream data, so that there's no unnecessary latency due to waiting for the silence to be played." If the buffer_size is bigger enough, such as 2s, at the beginning of stream starting playback, there's only silence, right? For music playing, it maybe accetable for user.But for video playing, this obvious delay makes Video/Audio out of sync. I am not sure whether catch your point clearly. --xingchao 2011/5/26 xing wang <wangxingchao2011 at gmail.com>: > 2011/5/26 Colin Guthrie <gmane at colin.guthr.ie>: >> 'Twas brillig, and xing wang at 26/05/11 10:42 did gyre and gimble: >>> 2011/5/26 Colin Guthrie <gmane at colin.guthr.ie>: >>>> 'Twas brillig, and xing wang at 26/05/11 09:09 did gyre and gimble: >>>>> I: main.c: This is PulseAudio 0.9.22 >>>> >>>> Just as a very small aside, David did some work on "Fighting Rewinds" >>>> recently. >>>> >>>> Just search the stable-queue git log for "Fighting rewinds"... >>>> >>>> These may already be included in your build, but if not it's perhaps >>>> worth grabbing those patches? >>> >>> Thank you Colin, let me have a try. >> >> Of course it's probably sensible to just run the whole "stable-queue" >> branch.
