[xine-user] DVD playback random pauses

[Andrew C. <an...@di...>]

Hi,

Unfortunately it seems that the playback pauses are still there with
xine-lib 1-rc3c and linux kernel 2.6

This is on an AMD Athlon 1800+ XP, 512MB RAM, Matrox G550 and a Plextor
PX-708A cd/dvd writer combo drive with DMA enabled. Sound is played back
through a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 using the ALSA drivers (though the
problem seems to also happen with OSS and ESD). This is running Fedora
Core 1.

This happens under Linux kernel 2.6 (it's fine with 2.4 and Ogle works
fine with 2.6).

With Xine under 2.6 (currently running vanilla 2.6.5) you get pauses
every 20 minutes or so, lasting about 10 seconds. By pause I mean it's
just like the pause button has been pressed, sound and video pause and
then resume again as normal. Other than that playback is great. This
happens at least with DVD's and it's 100% reproduceable.



Just let me know if you'd like any more info and please CC me in any
replies.


Cheers,

Andrew Clayton
