Audiomixer clicks with live source

[paul.goulpie]

Hello,
 
When I try to use the Audiomixer plugin with several live sources, I hear clicks on the audio output.
Example with the following command line:
gst-launch-1.0 \
audiotestsrc freq=440 is-live=true ! volume ! audiomixer0. \
audiotestsrc freq=450 is-live=true ! volume ! audiomixer0. \
audiotestsrc freq=460 is-live=true ! volume ! audiomixer0. \
audiotestsrc freq=470 is-live=true ! volume ! audiomixer0. \
audiotestsrc freq=480 is-live=true ! volume ! audiomixer0. \
audiomixer ! volume ! tee \
tee0. ! queue ! alsasink
 
Clicks are noticeable.
 
With the following command line:
gst-launch-1.0 \
audiotestsrc freq=440 ! volume ! audiomixer0. \
audiotestsrc freq=450 ! volume ! audiomixer0. \
audiotestsrc freq=460 ! volume ! audiomixer0. \
audiotestsrc freq=470 ! volume ! audiomixer0. \
audiotestsrc freq=480 ! volume ! audiomixer0. \
audiomixer ! volume ! tee \
tee0. ! queue ! alsasink
 
No perceptible clicks.
 
Would you have an idea, allowing me to use the plugin audiomixer with several live source without signal deterioration.
Thank you in advance.

You should try to increase the "latency" and possibly the output-
buffer-duration. The latency will increase the mixer buffering while
the output-buffer-duration will reduce the load. The defaults are meant
for non-live.
