What type of sound card are you using? Are you using ALSA or just the
kernel driver?
I assume that all other sound software works as expected? Mp3 streams via
xmms, etc?

Subject: [suse-multimedia-e] Realplayer 8 stopped working
Hi,
Using SuSe 8.0 (previously 7.2) and the RealPlayer 8.
Only problem in the past was the processor clock rate on my laptop. If
energy saving was not disabled it could cause the Realplay to play at
the wrong speed.
Now there is a wierd problem. The "welcome" plays for only 0.2 seconds
and there is no audio. This occurs for all real media. i.e. A video will
play for a frame or two and then stop - no sound. The aRTs in KDE
control center - sound - server is set on at startup as always.
The sound I/O was set to autodetect. I have now set it to ARTS.
Realplayer is set to use native sound driver - as always.
Trying the other two sound driver preference options does allow RP8 to
play video or audio but there is no audio output.
I had a look at the real.com community support (UNIX) site and tried the
various posted suggestions that looks relevant but there has been no fix.
I uninstalled and reinstalled RP8.
Once it worked almost correctly with only poor sound quality even though
the sound quality settings were the usual (16 bit etc.)
But it did no last. Again there is no sound as described above. A
fresh unistall, restart, install of RP8 did not help.
The only recent change was the installation of Mozilla 1.1 (previously I
had 0.9.8) for many months with RP8 working OK. and Java 1.4 RE
I suspect that the problem may be caused by a SuSe 8.0 configuration bug
or such but I do not know what to look for and I do not want to
experiment !
Any suggestions please ?

Damm.. This must be a simple question. I just cant get it right:
I would like to associate 'm3u' files at mp3.com to xmms insted of the build
in player in konqueror.
I've added xmms to the audio/mpegurl in file asociation inside konq. and moved
it to the top. But when I hit a link konqueror still opens some other build
in player. What did I miss?
And by the way: Can I do this for all my users in some common kde file?

Hi,
Unfortunately, there is no internal connector on my TV card.
However, I have tried fine tuning the channels and found the following:
For most channels, if I increase the freq by 1 or 2 MHz, I can get a channel with very
clear audio but no picture. I wonder if it is hardware problem or software (driver)
problem.
Have anyone come across this problem or have a explanation for it?
By the way, I am using SuSE 8.0. The drivers, kwintv and motv are of the versions that
come with the distribution.
Regards,
Reg

Hi,
I have got a PixelView PlayTV Pro TV (mono) tuner card and have installed the driver modules through
YaST (the exact card model was selected manually). When I try to watch TV in motv and kwintv after
scanning the channels, the picture is quite clear but the audio is very noisy (I can hardly hear
the original audio of the programme). Does anyone come across this problem or have any suggestions
what I can do?
Regards,
Reg

upon playback, everything is played rather quickly
When I record at
16bit pcm, 44100 mono
everything plays back at like half speed or slower

Hello,
thank you for your readiness to help! I was not aware, that this is an
english list, as I did the subscription on the german web-page of suse. Sorry.
My question was, how to install the Ricoh DVD/CDRW MP9120 using linux 7.0
(yast does not yet contain this device). As I am not at all a linux expert, I
would need some kind of step-by-step description. Unfortunately, I did not
find a web page or anything dealing with this problem on the world wide web, so
I had the idea to subscribe to this list and ask, if anybody could help me...
Fortunately, John Monaghan is alreadey willing to give me some instructions
:-) so I hope, it will work in the end!
Best regards,
Juliane

What exactly is the problem? I have a Ricoh CDRW drive, which Linux had no
problems at all with (which is more than I can say for NT4!).
Have you entered the right values into fstab, are you mounting the right
drive? It also may be an idea to load the idescsi module so that Linux
thinks that it is a scsi drive and can burn cds .

Betreff: [suse-multimedia-e] RICOH DVD/CDRW MP9120 unter Linux zum
Laufen bringen...
Hallo!
Gibt's hier jemanden, der mir sagen kann, wie ich das Kombigerät RICOH
DVD/CDRW MP9120 unter Linux (Version 7.0) zum Laufen bekomme? Es kommt mir
vor
allem auf das CD-Brennen unter Linux an (ich habe sowohl Linux als auch
Windows
auf meinem Rechner, unter Windows läuft das Kombigerät bereits).
Im Internet hab' ich leider keine Anleitung oder so dazu gefunden, aber
vielleicht kennt sich hier jemand damit aus? Wäre auf jeden Fall klasse!
Viele Grüße und DANKE!
