[Bug 1057425] Re: Bad german translation for "audio sink"

 

This is not in the »main« repository and therefore not translated by
Ubuntu German Translators. However, I checked the upstream translation
in Launchpad and it seems like it was updated. The current translations
are:

audio source = Audio-Quelle
audio sink = Audio-Ausgabegerät

These translations are adequate as far as I can judge from my knowledge
of the software's purpose. At least grammatic and spelling are correct.
If you would like to make a different suggestion please join the team
»Launchpad German Translators« and make your suggestion at the project's
translation page in Launchpad.

The upstream translations will probably land in Ubuntu Raring 13.04. An
update for older Ubuntu releases is not possible. Nevertheless, if you
want to have the current translations you can download them from
Launchpad (.po), compile it to .mo and replace the existing translation
file on your system. Hope that helps. If you need further information
please contact me via Launchpad.

Title:
  Bad german translation for "audio sink"

Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  Fix Committed
Status in “blueman” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  My bluetooth a2dp headset offers a service called "audio sink". 
  In the german locale it is shown as "Ton lässt nach" which makes it completely incomprehensible.

  "audio sink" is already a bad term, it should probably be called "A2DP
  stereo audio service" and the same name could be used for the german
  translation (substituting "Dienst" for "Service").
