https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D246449 Bug ID: 246449 Summary: www/chromium: enable PulseAudio by default. Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: chromium@FreeBSD.org Reporter: tomek@cedro.info Assignee: chromium@FreeBSD.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(chromium@FreeBSD.org) Hello world :-)=20 I was just about to report request to enable PulseAudio by default in Chrome just as it is in Firefox, but I found this thread that requests disabling t= he PulseAudio by default: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D216327 PulseAudio distinguishes input and output devices and the sound streams so = you can list them and adjust parameters such as volume per stream rather than p= er device. This is really important for WebRTC where you can easily and quickly switch between different devices for instance web camera microphone or inte= rnal laptop microphone or external microhpne. In Firefox that uses PulseAudio I can see many input devices and I can sele= ct among them. In Chromium that uses only ALSA by default I can see only "defa= ult" microphone and this is not the one that works nor any other input device. I did a compilation of Chromium with PulseAudio enabled but each pkg update tells me it wants to replace it with a binary that has defaults (no PulseAudio). Is PulseAudio still not welcome in Chromium by default? Best regards, Tomek --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
