pulseaudio over network

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Jeroen,
I'm using exactly the same setup. 3 TL-WR1043ND with Pulseaudio and a USB 
soundcard, connected to each AP. I also struggled with stuttering, but 
currently it works almost flawlessly.

I'm using Pulseaudio 2.0 on the openWRTs and Pulseaudio 1.1 on my notebook.
Link to my modified Makefile for openWrt: http://pastebin.com/0aBBBxpS 
(openWRT currently has only support for pulseaudio 1.1)

Furthermore I modified the patch, which openWRT is using for pulseaudio, but I 
don't know anymore, if it was finally needed. But you can try:

Perhaps it solves your problems.

Regards,
Henning
