PLEASE NOTE WELL: in each case above, you will see that ALSA hardware device setting for the sound card is "hw:0,1". (b) for Output device = ALSA and in the white box to the right type " hw:0,1" or " plughw:0,1" (omit quotes) Guayadeque: (a) click on Library menu > Preferences and select " Playback" from left column Gmusicbrowser: see post 5 in this thread:
(b) for the " Output pipeline" type " alsasink device=hw:0,1" (omit quotes) Quod Libet: (a) click on the Music menu > Preferences > Player tab You are now done setting up DeaDBeeF for bit perfect playback.
In the configuration window make sure that ALSA resampling is unchecked and that you place a check in box to " Release device when stopped". In the left column select " Alsa Output Plugin" and then click the " Configure" button (c) In the same Preferences window select > Plugins It may be labeled differently from the one I have. NOTE: the " Output device" choice will depend on the type of sound card in your computer. (b) In the Preferences window under " Sound" tab > " Output plugin" = " ALSA" To get bit-perfect output from each of the above:ĭeaDBeef: (a) Click on the Edit menu, then Preferences. My 4 recommendations for top notch music players are:Ģ. IMO, the closest to perfection is "gmusicbrowser". Each of my recommendations has pluses and minuses.

You need to install a music player that allows you to select certain ALSA settings. While I am no Linux guru, here are a few ways to do it using Ubuntu Linux, without removing Pulse Audio or hopefully resorting to the terminal/command line. I've had that happened time to time on some slower linux machines when using audactiy. ). I'm not worried about audio delay/lag, long as the audio memory buffer doesn't have issues (aka keeping 0.25s-1s sound clips and playing back at random intervals randomly. I think this is the best place for this question, I just hope there is some linux audiophiles in the house. (Even if what I want is shared/mixed mode depending if audio needs to be mixed together ). Would JACK help configure ALSA to do what I'm looking for? What settings do I need to play with to get it do what I want? How well does it resample (downsampling for sample rates and bit rates not supported by hardware) and/or how well does it mix down surround sound to stereo and how well is the quality of the mixer compared to Windows, Mac, and other Linux (OSS.) audio sub-systems mixers'? I don't think a computer forum would understand bit perfect output or the point in bothering to set it up and configure it. I wouldn't mind it to work like WASAPI in shared mode on Windows Vista and 7 (bit perfect until another application needs to play audio). we're pretty desperate here.I've never got a very clear answer or understanding if it's posible to configure ALSA to output a bit perfect copy of a playing music file (as the only sound playing), no resampling or mixing for supported output sample rates and bit rates.
I hope the developers come back soon, or Steven saves us all with a MusicBee port no but seriously, Steven - please do. This has been especially noticeable with audio players (but frankly OS X music players have always sucked).

Also now advertises the developer's crappy streaming music service.Ħ) Cog is yet another abandonware and is very barebones and frankly useless.įor the past 3 years or so OS X has been having rough times as far as 3rd-party software is concerned. Quod Libet has nice sorting (not nice enough for the OP though) and nothing else.ĥ) Vox is a native option that strives a bit too hard for that minimal feeling (so forget about sorting) but ironically the UI has grown cramped and inexplicable while the feature set has bloated. Tomahawk is actively developed, but has started obnoxiously shoving streaming music integration at the user. Also try the 1.0 version available from a link on their github.Ĥ) Multiplatform ports Clementine, Tomahawk and Quod Libet are also options. It's decent.Ģ) Enqueue is a pretty competent player, but the developer has evaporated over 3 years ago.ģ) Sonora is another abandonware option, with a very tiny feature set, but it kinda works as a playlist player. It's one of the few music players that is actively being developed. 1) Swinsian is the most complete solution right now, which isn't saying much.
