[opensuse-kde] Amarok playing too fast
Hi, I have amarok-2.0 installed, but I can't use it as it is playing too fast. And with that I mean really fast, like a 3 minute song is played in 3 seconds. Does somebody recognize this problem, and how this can be solved? # rpm -qa | grep kde4.*amarok kde4-amarok-lang-2.0.1.1-2.1.1 kde4-amarok-2.0.1.1-20.39 # zypper lr | grep -i kde 1 | KDE_KDE4_Factory_Desktop 2 | KDE_KDE4_Factory_Extra-Apps I installed amarok with 'zypper install kde4-amarok' using the repositories above. The rest is kde4 is working fine. -- Richard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org

Weird problem. Do you have phonon-backend-xine installed? Using Gstreamer would be my first suspect for amarok2 playback problems. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org

thanks for you reply! I was about to reply on my own email, with the information that xine was indeed configured as backend. I later on came up with the idea that gstreamer might be an alternative..., you were quicker :) Hmm, just checked; gstreamer seems to be installed: # rpm -ql gstreamer-0_10 /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10 But is is not offered in kde's multimedia backend configuration tab. The only backed offered there is xine. How can I add gstreamer (e.g.) to the list of backends? Why is gstreamer not offered? Can I test gstreamer on the command line? Amarok-1.4 works fine in the same (kde4) desktop. Any ideas, tips? -- Richard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org

I meant it the other way around - that gstreamer was likely the problem and xine might be the solution. You need phonon-backend-gstreamer to use gstreamer with phonon (systemsettings -> multimedia)

Which engine do you use in 1.4? (xine or yauap/gstreamer?) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org

It sounds more like a driver problem to me than an engine one. Can you play sounds fine otherwise ? Does it work via /dev/dsp and alsa interface equal ? -- Adrian Schroeter SUSE Linux Products GmbH email: adrian@suse.de -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org

The problem is that I'm just not familair with all the command line tools for multimedia engines, like aplay, xine, gstreamer, etc. Anway, I have sound now from Amarok-2. I installed the gstreamer backend for phonon and configured kde to use this backend. This seems to work. But of course new probs are popping up, like; - I can't control the volume with the speaker (kmix) that is located in the systray. It looks that it should be possible to control the volume with the "now playing" widget as well, but that is also not working for me :( - Another thing is that I can't pauze the song that is playing. I can stop the song, but in that case I need to click the stop button multiple times. /me wondering what is going on. Thank you Martin and Adrian, to support me. -- Richard -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
