Issue descriptionCreating a new bug for user reports from Chrome 23 and higher who are still reporting choppy sound issues, per Justin's comment (161) on issue 136624 . One user mentioned disabling PepperFlash seems to workaround the issue. We're asking users for the following, and will post findings here: 1. Details from your chrome://flash page 2. Sound card type and driver version 3. Audio configuration (sampling rate settings, effects, speaker configuration -- e.g., 5.1, etc.) 4. Sites where the choppy audio issue occurs. Is there other information that we should also be asking for? Reference: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/chrome/8dmv8Gjc7P0 https://goto.google.com/2603544

My app is working perfectly in Canary. For now I'm going to give users instructions on how to disable Pepper. How long will it be before this fix is in the stable channel?

User from c28, c29, and c46: Things are worse in 25.0.1348.0 for me. Testing using Pandora for audio. When I'm not doing anything on my computer, the sound is almost always perfect, whether Canary is foreground or background. Occasionally it still acts up (once ever 30 seconds to 2 minutes), getting choppy for a moment. If I open new tabs / browse the web in Canary, there's minimal choppiness (milliseconds in audio breaks, lasting only a few seconds total most of the time). If I switch windows in the task bar, there is also minimal choppiness. If I'm playing Pandora in Canary and I'm opening new tabs or browsing in Chrome Stable, things get horrible. Painful, quarter-to-half-second breaks in audio lasting 2 to 20 seconds at a times. If I stop browsing in Chrome Stable, like right now while I'm typing this comment, choppiness generally goes away, returning to the situation I described if I'm doing nothing on my computer above. I would say it was a processor issue or something (Dell Dimension C521; good 6-year-old computer), but I can run Pandora in IE8 in the background without issue, and that's saying something.

I tried these: 25.0.1327.0 Canary in comment 20 25.0.1342.0 Canary in comment 53 25.0.1348.0 Canary here 1327 was a great improvement 1342 was somehat improved over that 1348 was no better, just different This latest version, 1348, is similar to 1342 in that the pops seem to happen mostly when another tab or program is loading: * In 1342, opening Google News in another tab caused Youtube to pop once. Now, there is a cluster of several pops as it loads. * Opening another program causes an annoying series of pops (check the attached recording). * If I click on an embedded Youtube video on Google News and then switch back to the Youtube tab before it opens, the processor usage shoots up to 100% and both videos freeze, eventually giving the message "A plug-in (Shockwave Flash) isn't responding." (Granted, I don't normally watch two videos at once, but accidentally clicking on another one ought not cause Flash to crash.) When NPAPI Flash is enabled, the video continues to work without a single audio flaw during tab or program loads. When the embedded video is started up in a background Google News tab, both videos play simultaneously with flawless audio, no crash, and moderate CPU usage. I used this Youtube video for testing, along with Google News and OpenOffice: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAJ4i1L3y5M

Re: comment #14, comment #52: This might have some relation to PulseAudio's tsched=0, which I now found I had enabled in my /etc/pulse/default.pa. (I don't remember when I did this - whether before or after I reported this bug). I removed tsched=0 and my Chrome PepperFlash sound distortion problem is gone.

User from c28, c29, c46, and c61: As I'm using Chrome Canary (build 1357 now) to get somewhat decent audio, I'm realizing whatever changes you've done to PepperFlash audio on WinXP are now causing my machine to freeze up for 2 to 5 seconds whenever I initialize audio in a flash app. Say I startup Pandora or YouTube. At the moment the audio should start the screen locks (outside of the mouse) for those few seconds. If I pause the audio, when I hit play again the machine locks again. That's how I know it has to do with the audio and not something else. Choppiness still present as before.

Hi! After some time I realize that- new versions of Adobe Flash player are eat more CPU and I downgrade to 10.2.152.26. Use instructions from here: http://webigniter.wordpress.com/2012/05/14/how-to-downgrade-your-flash-version-in-google-chrome/ http://youtu.be/IO08kSfOipw How you see in video CPU is free to do some other jobs, not only one :) More old than this versions are in archive site. If your PC is old, you can downgrade to more earlier versions. Thank, you! Good luck! P.S. Look here to see conversation from beginning. There are 2 video links about subject. Thank, You!

Ansis- As of this comment (with Chrome 23.0.1271.97 m), the current NPAPI Flash is version 11,4,402,287 while the current PPAPI Flash is called 11.5.31.5 . The version numbers are two separate development streams, so what you're describing is a switch and not a downgrade. PPAPI is the one to complain about here. (If you had any NPAPI problems, you'd need to complain to Adobe.) Telling people to just disable the offending plugin removes the frustration for a few people, but getting it fixed removes the frustration for /everybody/.

Version 25.0.1359.3 canary I'm doing the same test as I did in comment 62, recording audio from a YouTube video while loading Google News in another tab or while loading another program. Results: NPAPI Flash doesn't skip a beat and CPU stays low. PPAPI Flash tries to hog the whole CPU and glitches when it can't. Sorry. No luck on the fix. On the plus side, at least it's not any worse.

Sound on youtube is a bunch of clicks and the video seems to play faster. After some time, the sound goes back and video goes normal. If I stop the video and start it again (play button or click on the video screen area) the problem sometimes reappears.

I don't know if this will help with the diagnosis, but it's not just loading programs and pages that causes the choppy sound. Scrolling quickly in another tab (which raises CPU utilization) causes the pops and clicks in PPAPI Flash too. This isn't a new problem; I had just forgotten to mention it. In the attached clip, I am using Chrome 26.0.1366.0 Canary to play a YouTube video in one tab while rapidly scrolling Google News in another tab. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAJ4i1L3y5M In the Product Forums thread referred to in comment 85, one of the developers said that this problem has been traced to old hardware and that the workaround may be to get a new OS or new computer. I think I prefer my workaround of disabling the offending Flash and using the one from Adobe.com. Switching to Firefox is another easy solution. Buying a new computer to accommodate problems with this minor security upgrade, however, seems excessive. @TC in comment 87 What kind of specifications does your computer have? Here are mine: Google Chrome 26.0.1366.0 (canary) Windows XP Home SP3 Flash 11.5.31.135 NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE AMD Athlon 64 3400+ 2.20 GHZ 2.18 GB RAM

User from c28, c29, c46, c61, c70 Using 26.0.1368.0 canary Much better. Freezing is eliminated. Pops and crackles minimized. Not quite perfect, but close. Definitely better than it was in Chrome 23. I'm playing Pandora and ABC video news at the same time right now, and the pops only happen a bit, particularly when switching tabs and windows, but they are short and go away after a few seconds of going to a new screen.

I've been having to disable pepperflash for months as well to watch HD youtube videos. The problem seems to be that pepperflash doesn't use my gpu to hardware accelerate the videos so then the HD videos get very choppy and the sound clicks and pops as well (and cpu usage is maxed out). This is easily verified by opening a 720p or 1080p youtube video. With pepperflash still enabled...when you "right click" on the HD video as it plays and select "show video info", it will show "software video rendering, SOFTWARE video decoding". But if you disable pepperflash and just use regular flash, that same "show video info" thing will show "software video rendering, HARDWARE video decoding"...and the cpu usage will be much lower and the video and sound will play smooth. On a side note, if you play the HD video in full screen with regular flash, it actually will show both "HARDWARE video rendering, and HARDWARE video decoding". Pepperflash will still use SOFTWARE rendering and decoding for both in full screen though and my computer grinds to a hault with the cpu maxed out. Hope this helps.

LS, today for 3 months now, or so, I am using Chrome Canary to avoid the problem that is the subject of this thread. The following may or may not be of interest to you: today I installed an extra 2 G memory bank in addition to the 2 G I already had in my (old) Toshiba Satellite Pro P300. The first thing I tried out was Chrome videos and the choppiness wasn't there. Then, to get back to the addresses I was using in Canary, I opened Canary as well. From the moment Canary opened, Chrome started chopping the sound again. So I went back to Canary. Are you sure that the competition isn't playing you a trick via Adobe Pepperflash which it all seems to boil down to?

dalecurtis@: we are still getting some reports about the issue after updating to 24. Are all the fix merged into 24? Or would it be helpful to have folks with the issue on 24 double check with canary to find out if it's fixed there? Thanks.

@Kenji: Yes all fixes are currently in and should resolve the problem for many. I expect there are still some problems for users with older hardware though; I'm in discussions with the Flash team to see if we can mitigate these.

Hi there, Im running Windows 7 (!) and something seems to have changed my audio buffer size. Even in the latest Canary version I have choppy audio in HTML5 audio playback (not flash!). However, when I start with the audio buffer flag even set to as low as --audio-buffer-size=512 it is no longer choppy! So I think per default, the buffer size must be between 256 and 512. In anyway, setting it to 512 or higher fixes the problem! OS Windows 7 Chrome: 26.0.1397.0 (Offizieller Build 179299) canary

I've played around with the buffers (see comment 20) before, and it doesn't seem to be as simple as adjusting them to one single value. There seem to be three separate problems in my playback: 1. Too short a buffer leads to regular stuttering where the audio pauses for a brief moment, then continues where it left off. 2. A "just-right" buffer does not cause regular stuttering, but minor clicks and pops still appear during hard drive activity, link focus, page loading, or scrolling. 3. Too long a buffer leads to regular stuttering where audio is lost entirely for short periods, then briefly reappears. I think the value for "just right" depends on the video somehow, but if there's a pattern, I can't discern it.

@112: Does the most recent Google Canary (26.0.1402.0) help your playback?
,
Feb 5 2013
@Dale I'm using 26.0.1403.0 Canary now. I think when I tested this on Canary yesterday, it may have been the previous version. I think you hit the nail on the head back in October when you said, "Since we don't know the hardware sample rate at this point, we can't adjust the buffer size based on it." and "Things sound and play correctly as far as I can tell though. However even with 4k if the system is under load, I was able to detect some clicks and pops on all clients (flash included)." As before, one buffer size I tested today was almost tolerable, as long as I let the computer sit without moving the mouse or running running anything else. During this recording, I hovered the cursor over the Chrome tabs to illustrate the problem caused by putting the computer "under load" at all. The others needed no help from me to turn out awful.
,
Feb 5 2013
@newton.jeremy: Yeah, buffer sizes like 256, 512, 1024 are always going to sound terrible on XP, WaveOut just can't handle it. I'm surprised 2048 is still giving you issues though. I'll see about plumbing another flag which will let you control the number of WaveOut buffers and see if that helps.

@Dale I'm afraid I have no idea how many buffers a Flash video requires, so forgive the absurd numbers. I tried Canary 26.0.1405.0 with "--waveout-buffers=4" and with "--waveout-buffers=4096". I played a YouTube video at low quality with PepperFlash enabled. There was no discernible difference between the two settings, either in sound (both tolerable) or resource utilization (both absurd). Quality was decent as long as I didn't touch anything. Opening a new tab, clicking the start menu, hovering over tabs, etc. caused problems.

That change won't be available until tomorrow's canary. You'll want to try a value in the 4 .. 6 range.

Stupid question: Why does the old Flash plugin Just Work?
,
Feb 7 2013
@mkterra: NPAPI flash ("the old Flash plugin") has direct access to the system and the audio hardware. Further, the audio path in NPAPI flash was written and tuned specifically for the Flash code base. This is all well and good for performance, but because of the direct access, security bugs in NPAPI flash are very dangerous.
PPAPI flash ("the new flash") is sandboxed to prevent Flash security bugs from compromising your system. Doing so involves creating an abstraction layer that sits between Flash and the system. As well as using Chrome's native audio path on the other side of the layer. Chrome's audio path, not surprisingly, was tuned and written for Chrome which leads to some quirks between what Flash and Chrome are expecting.
In addition to differing expectations, the abstraction layer adds a certain amount of overhead that may be problematic for older systems. Especially on XP where the OS level audio API was not designed for the low latency and high performance Chrome wants.
All of this is to say: It's complicated, but we're trying to make it better :) If you're interested in additional reading:

At www.AudioSparx.com, when playing tracks from the home page or internal pages, we are experiencing intermittent audio distortion, choppiness, distortion, or static (whatever you want to call it) for MP3 music playback in the Jplayer audio player. It is not related to Flash, which seems to be working fine for MP3 file playback. The problem happens often, including during the initial play and during repeat plays as tracks automatically loop and play over and over until manually stopped. The problem does not happen with Internet Explorer or Firefox at all, only with Google Chrome. All of the testing has been done on Windows platforms only, not Linux. Network speed is broadband, 100Mbps in one test location where the problem can be duplicated easily. We can duplicate the problem readily on different computers in different cities. We've rebooted all the computers and analyzed network cards and network traffic to make sure it was not something caused by networking issues. The fact that the problem happens during second and subsequent plays through a track upon looping indicates that the problem is somehow related to whatever is going on on the PC itself, not in the streaming of the MP3 track from the web server. Is anybody else experiencing this with Google Chrome? Any ideas about what might be causing it or how to resolve it? You can likely observe the problem yourself by using Chrome at our home page www.AudioSparx.com and play any track there. The glitches will happen intermittently, sometimes a few times during playback of a track, sometimes just maybe once, but almost always some kind of glitchiness. Here's the requested technical details below. Google Chrome 24.0.1312.57 (m) OS Windows 7 or Server 2008 R2 SP1 64 bit Flash plugin 11.5.31.139 C:\Users\MyUserName\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\PepperFlash\11.5.31.139\pepflashplayer.dll Flash plugin 11,5,502,146 C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\NPSWF32_11_5_502_146.dll (not used) --- Crash data --- Crash Reporting Enable crash reporting to see crash IDs For more details https://support.google.com/chrome/?p=ui_usagestat --- GPU information --- Graphics card NVIDIA GeForce GT 430 Driver display name nvd3dumx.dll,nvwgf2umx.dll,nvwgf2umx.dll,nvd3dum,nvwgf2um,nvwgf2um Driver name (strong) oem56.inf:NVIDIA_SetA_Devices.NTamd64.6.1:Section024:9.18.13.697:pci\ven_10de&dev_0de1 --- GPU driver, more information --- Vendor Id 0x10de Device Id 0x0de1 Driver vendor NVIDIA Driver version 9.18.13.697 Driver date 10-2-2012 Pixel shader version 3.0 Vertex shader version 3.0 ____________________________________________________________________ Sound Card is Creative SB X-fi from Creative Labs The problem is not related to the sound card, because music plays just fine from Firefox and IE browsers, and plays fine via Flash player.

I can confirm that doing the following resolved the distortion problem in Chrome:
Surf in Chrome here: chrome://plugins/
Then disable these two files:
1. A long file path like this, at the end will say "pepflashplayer.dll"
C:\Users\SomeUserName\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\PepperFlash\11.5.31.139\pepflashplayer.dll
2. Shockwave Flash 11.5 r502, which will point to something like this:
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\Flash\NPSWF32_11_5_502_149.dll
Then surf here and download Flash, saving it to your hard drive somewhere: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/?no_redirect
Then run this file, which will install the latest version of Flash.
Then refresh or reload any browser screen and the distortion should be gone.
This solved my problem with distorted music in Jplayer.

Feb 7 2013
Canary seems to also be fine, I've heard no distortion at all so far. Google, please fix the problem in the general Chrome release...it has been going on for MONTHS now!

Feb 7 2013
Stop the train, Canary inexplicably frequently stops playing music in the middle of the track, requiring a page reload in order to be able to start playing the track again.

Sounds to me like buffer underrun on 3 different machines: - Win7 64bit with Realtek audio device (internal mixing @ 24bit 48KHz) - Win7 64bit with Creative audio device (internal mixing @ 16bit 44.1KHz) - Win7 64bit with ASUS audio device (internal mixing @ 24bit 96KHz) Happens with Flash & HTML5-Players! Additionally: Sound mirroring (FL+FR -> RL+RR further known as "Quadrophony") does not work anymore on all systems due Chrome seems to send multichannel output now. Mono is now played on center channel only. Is it possible to switch back somehow are there some config options?

@dalecurtis: I don't understand if this issue is the same issue that I have. Can you see my video? Please watch it and tell me if both are the same problem. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qCCoyULHZo I have serious problem of performance, and CPU usage is always high with PepperFlash. The video is old with flash player version 11.3, but happens the same at the moment and I would like to help. Sorry for my bad english.
,
Feb 11 2013
@spockamon: Your issue is probably related to to issue 170498 . Have you tried the latest Chrome canary? @allangamesx: Your high CPU usage is because pepper flash doesn't support accelerated decoding. It's likely your system is not powerful enough to handle software decoding and reliable audio on Windows XP. We're working on re-enabling hardware decode for video in issue 109450.

Honestly how is it possible this is still a problem. This has been and continues to be a problem for me for several months now. Google Chrom: Version 24.0.1312.57 m OS: Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 Doesn't matter whether or not I disable pepperflash. Audio stutters on youtube videos all. the. time. Only a problem in Chrome. IE and Firefox do not have any problem. How on earth can every other browser released to the public by every other company NOT have this problem and yours, the one developed by the company that actually OWNS Youtube, still be experiencing it? Sorry I can't add much to this but my incredible frustration, but come on. I'd say it's like amateur hour, but it's been going on for months.

I'm on Ubuntu 12.04 with an AMD64 box. I have terrible stuttering such that the video is unwatchable. From what I can tell this is a pepperflash problem - if I disable pepperflash (Version 11.6.602.167) then the stuttering disappears. However, using the other flash (11.2.r202) is very unstable and crashes all the time like when I sneeze it crashes! I've also been able to verify that HTML5 videos work just fine. I can disable both pepperflash and Adobe's flash and HTML5 will still work with no stuttering. BTW: How do I get on the CC list for this issue?

This bug has traditionally been about issues only on XP, so I've relabeled it as such. I'm also marking it as fixed with Chrome M25. Please let me know if you're still seeing issues on XP. Note: glitching during HD playback due to 100% CPU usage on older hardware is unfortunately expected at this time. See this for more details: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=161307#c132 If you're having issues on another platform: See issue 116435 for issues on Linux: Specifically this comment about adding tsched=yes to your PulseAudio config: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=116435#c113 See issue 170498 for issues on Windows Vista or higher. I also recommend trying out Chrome Dev channel to see if your issue is resolved there: https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/index.html?extra=devchannel#eula At this time we're not aware of any outstanding quality issues for OSX, please submit a new report if you're having issues on OSX.

This bug is DEFINITELY not just with XP, we are experiencing it with Windows 7 as well...glitchy audio playback using Jplayer only in Google Chrome, not in IE or Firefox.
,
Feb 22 2013
Hi Harmony, as noted in my comment, please check out issue 170498 for non-XP audio issues and see if your problems are fixed with the dev channel. We're also tracking some further issues with high end audio devices in issue 171651 .

Feb 22 2013
Windows 8 here on two computers. None of those links solve the issue. It only happens if the audio settings are not 16bit 44khz. Any other settings causes distortion and choppiness in HTML5 or Built in Flash player. Exeternal flash player or any other browser work fine.

@paultk: I suspect your issue might be related to issue 170498 or issue 171651 , please check out the --audio-buffer-size workarounds listed on those bugs.

None of those links fix the issue. This is NOT an XP only issue, I have had it for MONTHS on a Windows 7 machine as noted above. Literally NO OTHER BROWSER has this issue. Only you guys. I've stopped using Chrome for video. At this point I don't trust a thing any of the devs posting here say. There seems to be no real interest on Google's part in fixing this. I cannot believe it is a hard issue as NO OTHER BROWSER has it. Only Chrome.

@WilliamAlex.Cunningham: Please try the --audio-buffer-size fix as mentioned in comment #146 and in issue 171651 . Note that issue is still being work on. Please track that issue for updates. @KateRitchie12: Can you provide some more details about your OSX system on issue 178222 ? I.e. What type of machine you're using (2005 MacBook; etc)? Are you using a USB headset or external audio device? What version of OS X do you have? If there are any other OSX users having issues please answer the same questions on issue 178222 .

Sorry it's taken so long to report back but just wanted to make sure to report back accurate and verified info. The problem is continuing on both Windows Vista and Windows 7, even after adding the --audio-buffer-size=512 parameter to the startup properties of both computers, like this: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --audio-buffer-size=512 On Windows 7, I'm running Chrome version 25.0.1364.97 m, and confirmed that the CPU was not overloaded when the problem occurs. It seems happen more sparsely on Windows 7 than before, sometimes not happening for several songs, but then occurs briefly....randomly with brief static sounds and glitchiness, then normal for the rest of the song. But is still very consistent on Windows Vista. This is all using Jplayer for audio playback. Works fine in IE and Firefox as reported previously. This is with a Creative XB X-Fi soundcard.
