[Pkg-pulseaudio-devel] Bug#562527: paprefs: interface confusing, please redesign

Package: paprefs
Version: 0.9.9-2
Severity: normal

interface has four tabs which may confuse new  users

1. Network access
2. Network server
3. Multicast RTP
4. Sumultaneous output

Does a server not access the network?
RTP is a network protocol why isn't it in tab 1 or 2?


Suggested redesign

tab 1
	name: subsrcibe/import
	help: access resources provided by other servers
	content: local devices, airtune, rtp-receiver
tab 2
	name: publish/export
	help: allow remote access to devices or publish streams
	content: allow access, rtp-server, upnp
tab 3
	name: simultaneous output
