    Trying to understand the relationship between Bluetooth headphones, virtual_oss, and the mixer

    I recently set up a FreeBSD desktop, and I've managed to get Bluetooth headphones working using the following command: virtual_oss -T /dev/sndstat -C 2 -c 2 -r 48000 -b 16 -s 20ms -P /dev/bluetooth/headphones -R /dev/null -w vdsp.ctl -d dsp -l mixer Admittedly, I have only a cursory...

    Hi everyone, I'm running 13.1-RELEASE-p6 with an onboard Realtek ALC255 and OSS as my audio system. Tonight I upgraded to Firefox 112.0 and now there's no sound in Firefox. System audio works; I tested it using VLC. I do have "media.cubeb.backend" set to "oss" in Firefox. I confirmed that...

    Kernel panic at shutdown after installing OSS with proposed fix.

    This is my first post on this forum - so here goes: I am currently using FreeBSD as a desktop system. My sound card is an ASUS Xonar D2X, which is only supported by audio/oss. I made a fresh install of FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE and I compiled a custom kernel without any sound support before...

    Using timidity++ as a daemon

    Greetings fellow Beastie followers, I want to integrate MIDI into the sound system for my desktop environment. The settings allow me to select a MIDI device and I usually used audio/timidity++ as an auto-starting daemon on Linux systems to get this functionality, but I can't figure out how to...

    C Recording from FreeBSD sound subsystem

    I am trying to implement a basic example to record a few seconds of audio in FreeBSD, which uses a modified OSS version. Following the sample files included in the FreeBSD source code and the OSS programming guide I have prepared the following sample program: #include <sys/soundcard.h> #include...

    Video recorders with OSS support

    The big two video recorders obs-studio and simplescreenrecorder depend on sound systems that are not native to FreeBSD. I like many others don't care to use Pulseaudio, ALSA, or JACK. Is there any recorders that support OSS at least as a build option that I'm not aware of?

    No sound and video after upgrading to Gnome-41. Many /dev/dsp4.x files created in Gnome session

    Firstly, I got sound and video working fine in FreeBSD before upgrading to Gnome-4X versions. As a desperate attempt, I switched to KDE Plasma now and sound, video working fine. But, I would prefer to get Gnome-41 with audio working. So, right now in Gnome-41 - no audio working. I would like...

    Volume Per Channel (VPC)

    Hello, can someone explain to me how to use the VPC feature of the operating system? I noticed it some time ago in the sound man page, but I didn't find any resources on how to actually use it for per application volume control. It does not seem like it's possible with the default mixer utility...

    Solved Per program volume control / mocp volume level

    I have read sound(4) and mixer(8) but I wonder how I can control volume for programs individually. In OpenBSD, for instance, programs appear along with other mixer faders like master, so I can use sndioctl to adjust programs just like I can use it to control the master level. How do I have to...

    Recording audio output

    I've been on a quest to figure out how to capture audio output for a long time. Apparently OSS doesn't natively support it. Recently I managed to kind of do it using audio/virtual_oss (specifically virtual_oss -C 2 -c 2 -r 48000 -b 16 -s 1024 -f /dev/null -w vdsp -l dsp), but with two...

    OSS Sound Quality

    The default settings of oss are insane. These settings are for pure quality without cracking or any other kind of distortion and low-quality annoyance. This is an passthrough, bypassing some features you don't need. This gives you full quality without thinking about it anymore. sysctl.conf...
