Summary: WMA9P problems

Initial Comment:
Xine doesn't play videos with the sound encoded by the
Windows Media Audio 9 Professional codec, reported as
Windows Media Audio V3 correctly.  There is a long
pause with no sound while the video plays normally,
maybe 10 seconds or so, and finally the sound starts. 
Then there are occasional skips.  The sound is never in
sync with the video.

Please try the latest versions of xine-lib and xine-ui.
They can be downloaded from:

I'm not sure how buggy it is--it was transcoded with the
Microsoft Windows Media Encoder.  Granted, that doesn't mean
it's a perfect stream, but the Windows Media Player has no
trouble with it.  Maybe they use the timestamps in a
different way (or not at all) for WMA9P?

Also maybe I should record a live TV clip into this format.
 It's possible that the stream is in perfect sync, but it's
originally Japanese and dubbed into English.

this file seems somewhat buggy, if i disable the usage of
timestamps for wma decoder it plays *almost* in sync.
however, when xine use the timestamp information it does
what you describe.

how windows media player handle it? is the sync perfect?

Oops, it was recorded with vanilla WMA9.  Though it's still odd 
that it had no sound.

Anyway, this one uses WMA9P.  The encoder settings are:
Audio: VBR Quality 90, 44kHz, 2 channel 24 bit WMA9P
Video: VBR 75, 25fps, 360x288 WMV9

Okay, you can find one at

It's a small clip of something that was recorded from TV and
converted using Microsoft Windows Media Encoder 9, a free
download from Microsoft.

GXine plays it with no sound at all.  Xine core dumps trying
to load it.  I'm using gxine 0.33, xine-ui 0.9.23, and
xine-lib 1-rc3b.
