Changelog: Revision PA1 6/22/08 soundcheck I'd recommend to use Audacious as a basic player for best sound. (There is no need to run XMMS any longer.) Featurewise Amarok is my preference as a player. Run Audacious under realtime conditions. Prerequisite is a realtime-kernel as it is coming with Ubuntu Studio. The application has to be started as root (sudo)to get access to the realtime-priorities. Assuming Audacious has been installed with synaptics, you can prepare it for realtime performance. You can also install it via command line: $ sudo apt-get install audacious $ cd ~ $ sudo mv /usr/bin/audacious /usr/bin/audacious.bin $ chmod 750 /usr/bin/audacious.bin $ sudo gedit /usr/bin/audacious --------startscript audacious---Copy below lines into the editor------------------------------------ #!/bin/bash chrt -f -p 98 /usr/bin/audacious.bin exit 0 -------------save and exit ----------------------------------------------------- $ sudo chmod 750 /usr/bin/audacious Now: Don't forget to copy your reference audio files to /dev/shm to play them from there. Start audacious $ sudo audacious Under preferences/audio 1. tick Bypass all of signal processing if possible 2. set buffer size to lowest possible level 3. under Output plugin preferences - Advanced select lowest buffer possible. Now: Don't forget to copy your reference files to /dev/shm to play them from there. Enjoy!! |
