Does skype have a built in echo cancellation? I don't recall seeing one in pulse. Another option (which I always use anyway) is a pair of headphones. No echo, great sound.
Re: too much microphone echo on linux. please help.
no, skype 4.0 version not have built in echo cancellation. i don't want to buy an headphone. i have built in microphone in my laptop. but why echo problem is not with window?
Re: too much microphone echo on linux. please help.
Because Windows has echo cancellation. I believe skype turns it on for you.
You might be able to find something with a Google search. Use the search term Ubuntu instead of Linux Mint if you can't find anything

Re: too much microphone echo on linux. please help.
Not an expert here but you might want to lower down the sensitivity of microphone? Maybe it would make a difference. Type this command in the terminal and adjust the settings.FurqanHanif wrote:when i use Skype to call my friend then a lot of echo sounds my microphone broadcast or send to my friend and he can't listen me clearly. but on windows there is no such echo in microphone. how can i solve this problem? any software which cancel my microphone echo. i also tried speex codec but no help.

Hi! You can have a look at a similar problem here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=146495 (reply #8) and http://arunraghavan.net/2011/08/hello-hello-hello/ if you have time to read some extra information. To quote the post from the first link:
My suggestion is, try running the command above, and see if there is anything in the skype settings that wouldThat said, PulseAudio has an echo cancellation module that might help. Run:and set Skype's audio input and output to the echo cancel source and sink.Code: Select all
pactl load-module module-echo-cancel
I can't test echo cancelation on my computer now, so I can't really tell you if it will work, but it's worth a try. Good luck!set Skype's audio input and output to the echo cancel source and sink.

I had to build pulse from source to get some plugins in the past.
