Volumio 3.804/ Shairport
I have questions about shairport. I want to use it for streaming appleTV to Volumio. It works but with a lot of delay. How I can I rit off the delay? When you start streaming it stutters also a lot but goes away after a view seconds.
Is shairport is the same as airplay and it works with you’re network? I have everything wired. Accept my iphone, then also stuttering.
The delay is around 4 seconds. I tried to edit /etc/shairport-sync.conf but seems to have no effect.
I figure it out. You can edit “volumio/app/plugins/music_service/airplay_emulation, sudo nano shairport-sync.conf.tmpl”
add audio backend:
general =
{
name = “${name}”;
ignore_volume_control = “yes”
audio_backend_latency_offset_in_seconds = -0.45
audio_backend_buffer_desired_length_in_seconds = 0.15
};
-0.45= 4.5 seconds delay. Lipsinc problems are solved this way.
I changed it 0.20 buffer and -0.295 latency. Almost no stuttering now…
You have to know that it will prevent future Volumio update.
ohh thanks for the info , than I back up my settings and do always clean install.
I now where the delay comes from. lypsinc out of sync and the stuttering etc. It is caused by fusion DSP. Without it no problems.
hello!
Processing DSP introduces delay, no doubt, not a bug…
Stuttering is rather due to buffer setting.
I like to use the dsp for improve the bass sound. But also like to stream AppleTV to Volumio. I did increase the buffer to 0.25 and then no stuttering. But till now I can not find the good latency value for it.
Do I have to make a choice between dsp or no dsp?
