PulseAudio is a sound server for POSIX and Win32 systems. A sound server is basically a proxy for your sound applications. It allows you to do advanced operations on your sound data as it passes between your application and your hardware. Things like transferring the audio to a different machine, changing the sample format or channel count and mixing several sounds into one are easily achieved using a sound server.
Is freastalaí fuaime é PulseAudio le haghaidh córais POSIX agus Win32. Is éard atá i bhfreastalaí fuaime ná seachfhreastalaí d' fheidhmchláir fhuaime. Ceadaíonn sé duit ardoibríochtaí a dhéanamh ar shonraí fuaime nuair a théann siad idir d' fheidhmchlár agus do chrua- earraí. Mar shampla, aistriú na fuaime go ríomhaire difriúil, athrú fhormáid an tsampla nó athrú líon na gcainéal, agus meascadh fuaimeanna le chéile. Rudaí éasca iad seo le freastalaí fuaime.
