#45, Vincenzo, The gstmix version of gnome-volume-control is deprecated. It is maintained for Solaris by Solaris guys. It's not meant to be a 1-1 substitute of the new gnome-volume-control, which uses the PulseAudio features (I won't make the long list here).
We decided to opt-in for PulseAudio 1 year ago, because it is the only way to move forward the audio stack on Linux. It is clearly the best we can do to improve sound experience with GNOME, and for that, GNOME need to depend on it. The old gnome-volume-control based on gstmix is marked as deprecated. GStreamer folks are also in the process of deprecating the gstmixer interface in the next major release. Eventually, some day, some folks will try to make an abstract audio mixer library. But this is not a simple task. And most probably, it won't depend on GStreamer this time. -- gnome-volume-control-applet takes up to 40% cpu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/400820 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
