AUDIO support
-------------

Veejay has limited audio support.


PREPARE
-------

You need an AVI file with an audio track encoded in PCM WAVE, 44-48Khz, 2 channels (stereo) (16 bit)


RUN
---

Veejay only has support for jackd1 (the old jack)

Start jackd prior to starting veejay:

# jackd -d alsa -P


Now, start veejay:

# veejay -m80 /path/to/mjpeg.avi

Use the -m commandline option to allow veejay to cache video frames when sampling. This will reduce disk latency,
allowing for smoother audio playback (especially when used in combination of speed/pitch changes) 

The -m commandline option is further explained in docs/HowtoCache.txt

AUDIO PLAYBACK PROBLEMS
-----------------------

Q: What can I do about the warning "Rendering audio/video frame takes too long (measured 44 ms). Can't keep pace with audio!" 


A(1): You can start veejay with the -m commandline option. The warnings are less frequent or dissapear when the whole sample is cached in memory.

A(2): You can disable veejay's multithreaded pixel operations:
  
# export VEEJAY_MULTITHREAD_TASKS=0
# veejay -m80 /path/to/mjpeg.avi

A(3): Have a dedicated veejay-server machine and connect with reloaded through the network

A(4): Run with a different video codec or lower the video resolution
