Summary: PulseAudio is a networked sound server
Description:
PulseAudio is a networked sound server, similar in theory to the Enlightened Sound Daemon (EsounD). PulseAudio is however much more advanced and has numerous features. A sound server can serve many functions: * Software mixing of multiple audio streams, bypassing any restrictions the hardware has. * Network transparency, allowing an application to play back or record audio on a different machine than the one it is running on. * Sound API abstraction, alleviating the need for multiple backends in applications to handle the wide diversity of sound systems out there. * Generic hardware abstraction, giving the possibility of doing things like individual volumes per application. Features: * Library licensed under LGPL and server daemon under GPL * Extensible plugin architecture (by loading dynamic loadable modules with dlopen()) * Support for static linking of modules, allowing a single binary for all your needs * Module autoloading * Support for more than one sink/source * Good low latency behaviour * Very accurate latency measurement for playback and recording. * Client side latency interpolation * Embedabble into other software (the core is available as C library) * Completely asynchronous C API, complemented by two synchronous variants for simple use in synchronous applications * Simple command line interface for reconfiguring the daemon while running * Flexible, implicit sample type conversion and resampling * "Zero-Copy" architecture * May be used to combine multiple sound cards to one (with sample rate adjustment) * Ability to fully synchronize multiple playback streams This virtual package contains pulseaudio daemon and utilities.
