Is there a way to disable flat volume easily? Cheers Jason Taylor -- "Weekends don't count unless you spend them doing something completely pointless. " - Calven ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss

[pulseaudio-discuss] Bluetooth - A2DP only? Recommended headsets? Jack?
Hi all, I've been thinking of getting a bluetooth stereo headset for my laptop. The two I'm considering are the B Speech Calypso (perhaps SP if its not a big price difference) or the Jabra BT8030. I'm relatively confident that those will work with Pulse, as I've seen guides posted up here and there on pairing and sending sound through Pulse. Just a few questions on the 'internals' of this, I assume Pulse communicates with BlueZ and uses A2DP to connect to the headsets? Is this pulse-specific or are there other ways of connecting (for example, through alsa, or jack). I'm asking because while I use Pulse almost all the time, sometimes (in recording or other such things) I use JACK, and pulseaudio-module-jack is a bit hit-and-miss currently. Besides that, does anyone here have comments on the models I've shown above? Any recommendations for something within a similar price range? I will mainly be using it for listening to music, while most forums/searches tell me about call-quality instead, which is quite a different beast. Thanks. ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss

More problematic then the headsets is actually the dongle you use... The A2DP headsets I test with are Motorola S9 and Logitech FreePulse. The former is pretty good and dual A2DP/HSP. The latter is crap. I also have a cheap Plantronics HSP-only headset. If you want to make sure the hw works fine with PA then your safest bet is probably to pick the hw I test with. > Just a few questions on the 'internals' of this, I assume Pulse > communicates with BlueZ and uses A2DP to connect to the headsets?

What's your beef with the jack module? Last time I checked it it worked fine. The BTS shows no open bug filed against the jack module, so to me looks as if everything's fine. There's an ALSA module for BT. It works for basic stuff, but I'd guess the PA plugin for ALSA plus PA's native BT support actually works better. It's mostly about the timing. > Besides that, does anyone here have comments on the models I've shown > above?

Motorola S9 is my recommendation. Most others I played around with are crap. I wouldn't buy a cheap one. The Logitech one is a technical disappointment.

Hi Lennart, thanks for your quick reply.

Not so much a beef with the jack module, I use it and love it, but its less stable (for me) than the rest of pulse or jack. You probably don't recall but I specifically brought up a few issues with it, primarily with crash-outs. Since my distro pushed to 2.6.30 I haven't used it though (no RT patch, and no on-going projects for JACK to be used on), so I haven't checked out the latest version in .16 yet, it may be more stable than I remember from a few months back. So just regard this as old information, when I get the time to patch up an RT kernel I'll test with the latest pulse/jack. > > There's an ALSA module for BT.

I'm thinking of ALSA as just 'the stuff between Pulse and system' nowadays, but may try that out just for novelty value. > > > Besides that, does anyone here have comments on the models I've shown > > above?

I'm from Malaysia, and we find it difficult to check prices when they're in USD, since items which cost the same can have VERY different prices on our shores. I'll check the S9 out, but my gut feeling is it may not be easy to find here, and I have a natural aversion to in-ears, since I prefer plenty of bass and low-freq definition in my music, especially when Q-testing my recording sessions. ___ pulseaudio-discuss mailing list pulseaudio-discuss@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-discuss
