The default value is 4. - -.TP -\fB\-r\fP | \fB\-\-rate\fP \fIRATE\fP -stream of \fIRATE\fP Hz - -.TP -\fB\-t\fP | \fB\-\-test\fP \fBpink\fP|\fBsine\fP|\fBwav\fP -\fB\-t pink\fP means use pink noise (default). - -Pink noise is perceptually uniform noise -- that is, it sounds like every frequency at once. If you can hear any tone it may indicate resonances in your speaker system or room. - -\fB\-t sine\fP means to use sine wave. - -\fB\-t wav\fP means to play WAV files, either pre-defined files or given via \fB\-w\fP option. - -You can pass the number from 1 to 3 as a backward compatibility. - -.TP -\fB\-l\fP | \fB\-\-nloops\fP \fBCOUNT\fP - -Specifies the number of loops. Zero means to run infinitely. - -When \fB\-s\fP option below with a valid channel is given, \fBspeaker\-test\fP will perform -always a single-shot without looping. - -.TP -\fB\-s\fP | \fB\-\-speaker\fP \fBCHANNEL\fP -Do a single-shot speaker test for the given channel. The channel number starts from 1. -The channel number corresponds to left, right, rear-left, rear-right, center, LFE, -side-left, side-right, and so on. - -For example, when 1 is passed, it tests the left channel only once rather than both channels -with looping. - -.TP -\fB\-w\fP | \fB\-\-wavfile\fP -Use the given WAV file for the playback instead of pre-defined WAV files. - -.TP -\fB\-W\fP | \fB\-\-wavdir\fP -Specify the directory containing WAV files for playback. -The default path is \fI/usr/share/sounds/alsa\fP. - - -.SH USAGE EXAMPLES - -Produce stereo sound from one stereo jack: -.EX - speaker-test -Dplug:front -c2 -.EE - -Produce 4 speaker sound from two stereo jacks: -.EX - speaker-test -Dplug:surround40 -c4 -.EE - -Produce 5.1 speaker sound from three stereo jacks: -.EX - speaker-test -Dplug:surround51 -c6 -.EE - -To send a nice low 75Hz tone to the Woofer and then exit without touching any other speakers: -.EX - speaker-test -Dplug:surround51 -c6 -s1 -f75 -.EE - -.SH AUTHOR -The speaker-test program was written by James Courtier-Dutton. -Pink noise support was added by Nathan Hurst. -Further extensions by Takashi Iwai. |
