Greetings. Firstly, appologies for posting to the dev list - I've posted a number of times to the users list and gotten no responses at all. Hopefully someone here can help me out ... I'm running Gentoo Linux on PPC ( Apple Powerbook ). At one point in the fairly recent past, xine was working perfectly for me. Something's changed :) I can still play DVDs fine, but if I try to play mp3s or streaming audio ( pls ), I get white noise - no hint at all of the original track - just pure white noise. I swear, I used to be able to play both with xine. Now, to be perfectly honest, I'm also getting this issue with other apps - I've tried xmms and totem, and also eclair ( which I believe uses xine anyway ). However, mplayer can still play all formats perfectly. I add this just to demonstrate that there's nothing up with the content ( mp3, audio streams ) or kernel drivers. Well, at least I think nothing's up with the kernel drivers. I've tried a large range of kernels. I've posted to the gentoo forums, and the very few people who responded suggested that it sounded like an endianess issue. I'm perplexed. Is there some kind soul who can help me getting audio working in xine? If this isn't a xine issue directly ( the fact that other apps have the same issue seem to suggest this ), then what libraries that xine depends on could be causing this? Any help greatly appreciated :) At the moment, I'm stuck playing mp3s with mplayer from an Eterm, but frankly, there are better ways to play mp3s :) Dan -- BEGIN-ANTISPAM-VOTING-LINKS ------------------------------------------------------If you are not the CanIt administrator and you think this message is spam, please give the id 29947 and magic value 693daaad468f to pos...@en... to be marked as spam.

Folks, I got a question regarding the aspect ratio returned by xine. I am using xine-lib in QDVDAuthor as a MediaBackend and it seems to return the wrong Aspect ratio I am using iReturn = xine_get_stream_info (m_pXineStream, XINE_STREAM_INFO_VIDEO_RATIO); and devide the result by 10000 E.g. *if* (iReturn == (*int*)(4.0/3.0*10000)) m_qsRatio = QString (*"4:3"*); Any help what the right way is to get the right aspect ratio ? Varol :) |
