Issue: video playback slowdown, using spice client --spice-disable-audio option How to reproduce: 1. compile qemu master for x86_64 target with spice enabled. 2. laucher a windows 7 virtual machine with some like: qemu-system-x86_64 --enable-kvm -M q35,accel=kvm -display none -spice port=5907,addr=0.0.0.0,disable-ticketing -device intel-hda,id=s0 -device hda-duplex,id=s0-codec0,bus=s0.0,cad=0 3. connect the virtual machine using official remote-viewer without spice audio channel. which is: remote-viewer spice://localhost:5907 --spice-disable-audio 4. open windows sample video using default media player. video location: C:\Users\Public\Videos\Sample Videos\Wildlife.wmv You will see the video playback speed is very slow. I HAVE TEST QEMU 4.2.1 DOES NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE. And I believe this issue was indroduced by this commit: https://github.com/qemu/qemu/commit/fb35c2cec58985f0b8d2733f1b91927542eeb3fd best regards 发件人: zhou qi <atm...@outlook.com> 发送时间: 2020年9月10日 19:17 收件人: qemu-devel@nongnu.org <qemu-devel@nongnu.org> 主题: [PATCH] Fix video playback slowdown when spice client no audio enabled From e8c2e283f0954de255a32ea70d577d5e61992399 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Qi Zhou <atm...@outlook.com> Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2020 19:09:29 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] Fix video playback slowdown when spice client no audio enabled You will get video playback slowdown on the following cases 1. use official spice client with audio channel disabled, use --spice-disable-audio option 2. thirtpart client doesn't implement audio channel ref: https://github.com/qemu/qemu/commit/fb35c2cec58985f0b8d2733f1b91927542eeb3fd Signed-off-by: Qi Zhou <atm...@outlook.com> --- audio/audio.c | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/audio/audio.c b/audio/audio.c index ce8c6dec5f..50febe190f 100644 --- a/audio/audio.c +++ b/audio/audio.c @@ -1091,7 +1091,11 @@ static size_t audio_pcm_hw_run_out(HWVoiceOut *hw, size_t live) while (live) { size_t size, decr, proc; void *buf = hw->pcm_ops->get_buffer_out(hw, &size); - if (!buf || size == 0) { + + if (!buf) { + hw->mix_buf->pos = (hw->mix_buf->pos + live) % hw->mix_buf->size; + return clipped + live; + } else if ( size == 0) { break; } -- 2.17.1
