When playing media with Noatun. I get a lot of "crackling"

Try turning on realtime priority in aRts.

It was on.. I turned it up to maximum and then switched it off. In either 
case, the crackling remains.

There is no maximum, only ON and OFF. Please check again, you probably just changed the output buffer size.

Yep ... You were right. That's what I did. Anyway.... checked again and I'm 
still getting the crackling.

Thanks for looking into this

Comment 5 eli 2004-01-23 16:48:50 UTC

Seems to be fixed in 3.1.95

Comment 6 Stefan Gehn 2004-01-23 17:50:20 UTC

Also realtime priority only works if "artswrapper" is setuid root (only apps run by root can gain realtime-priority, at least on linux)
As it seems to work now (I guess it was just bad packaging or something) I'll close it with reason WORKSFORME.
Please reopen in case of new trouble but first make sure your artsd is really running with realtime-priority (only few systems work fine without that setting).
