Reluctant Linux User Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago If any of you have experienced skipping and popping when seeking with vlc, you can try setting the audio sink to ALSA and one of the rockchip-es8316 options. That will smooth out the audio playback BUT you will quickly discover that anything pulseaudio related is locked out of using the soundcard while vlc is up. Instead, try this. Set vlc audio back to pulseaudio (or automatic, seems to map to the same thing) and then change these two lines in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf: -; default-sample-rate = 44100 -; alternate-sample-rate = 48000 +default-sample-rate = 48000 +alternate-sample-rate = 44100 Restart pulseaudio with systemctl --user restart pulseaudio and see if vlc plays nice with everything else as well as supporting smooth playback after seeking. It does for me. It seems that forcing pulseaudio to resample causes all sorts of hilarity (vlc seems to like putting everything out at 48000). I'm sure there's a reason why. I'm also sure if I know, I'll be sorry I do. I wonder, how hard is it to get the Vulkan video hardware decoding working? Has anyone gotten it to work? 0 Quote
