Public bug reported: In order to have tolerable latency, the timidity-daemon package has in /etc/init.d/timidity the line TIM_ALSASEQPARAMS="-B2,8"
However, this setting never reaches the timidity daemon since the timidity package overwrites it in /etc/default/timidity with # Setting overrides (of /etc/timidity.conf) for the ALSA sequencer daemon TIM_ALSASEQPARAMS="-Os" Consequently, the timidity daemon exhibits the kind of latency that is to be expected for batch playback of Midi files where latency is not a problem. ** Affects: timidity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1411856 Title: timidity daemon shows large latency To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/timidity/+bug/1411856/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
