[opensuse] 11.4 VLC, audio channel dropping
openSUSE 11.4, x64 VLC 1.1.7 Gnome desktop When playing video, the audio will cut out entirely, "ALSA plug-in [vlc]" disappears from the PulseAudio Volume Control Playback tab. Disabling/Enabling the audio track seems to restore audio until it dies again. By "dies", I mean video continues to play, just with no audio. I did not experience this issue with 11.3 Thank you, Adam -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Hi Adam, I experienced similar 'hiccups' in 11.3 and discovered that some of the multimedia packages I'd installed from vlc and packman were conflicting. The package numbers are very close, but not the same and not necessarily 100% compatible across maintainers. I ultimately solved the problem by slightly upgrading/downgrading packages while ensuring all dependencies were met from the same repository. IOW, when I eliminated mixing and matching libraries between the two repositories, my problems went away. hth, ymmv & regards, Carl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
