Need recommendation for sound setup
I have a video-and-audio X11 application, currently working fine on Linux with local client and server, using the OSS API for audio. Thanks to the cygwin pseudo-device for OSS, it also works fine on Cygwin with local client and server. With Linux client and a remote server, Linux or Cygwin, the video part works fine, but without sound of course. I know there exist tons of possibilities: PulseAudio, NAS, ESD, artsd, jack, and certainly more that I do not know about. The problem is the sheer abundance. Can anyone recommend the solution involving the least amount of work? I would prefer a single API, autoconfiguration based on the X display URL (so to speak), and please nothing using LD_PRELOAD. TiA Michel Bardiaux PS: this question is obviously not about the X server per se. Still, users of cygwin-xfree are more likely to know than users of cygwin in general, which is why I post first here rather than in the general list. I may be wrong, if so, apologies. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
