You were correct that the kde sound server (aRts) does 'shaft' xine (I tried experimenting with it on and off). It turns out however that I h= ad it turned off when I was getting the no sound (alsa switch) or sound/visi= on synchronisation problems (oss switch). I remember that when I used xine-0= =2E3.6 and 0.3.7 with Caldera eDesktop2.4 that xine had to convert the sound inf= o from 48000 Hz to the 44100 Hz that my sound card could handle. Under Suse Linu= x 7.1 it looks to send the 48000 Hz direct to the sound card? I am going to look into trying to configure a OSS sound driver in place o= f the alsa one for Suse Linux 7.1 (if one exists) and post my findings to t= he mailing list. - Stewart Charnell Paul Gibbs wrote: >I had problems with sound on SuSE7.1 also with the ALSA driver although = I=20 >have an ESS-Solo card.
