Hey folks! |

I'm having kind of a weird problem with mplayer. I can play some |
| 4 |
things, but not others but only under certain circumstances. I can play |
| 5 |
.mp3 files and movies. I can play anything if I'm using the arts driver |
| 6 |
as the audio output, except when I play DVDs, I get no sound. I can get |
| 7 |
sound with dvds in xine, but i can't get a decent video driver to |
| 8 |
display the video without choppiness with xine. If I use the alsa |
| 9 |
driver with mplayer, I can't seem to play .wav files. I can play them |
| 10 |
with arts however. I'd really prefer to use alsa though, because |
| 11 |
there's lag whenever I skip forwards or backwards. I use it to |
| 12 |
transcribe phone messages, so that lag is extremely irritating. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
Except for dvds, mplayer was working great with .wav files. I'm not |
| 15 |
sure what the difference is at all, but I'm just guessing something |
| 16 |
needs recompiled or something like that. I tried recompiling mplayer |
| 17 |
with different use flags several times, recompiling the libraries for |
| 18 |
mplayer, but no matter what I do I get the same issue. What happens |
| 19 |
exactly, with alsa in mplayer, is it'll start to play for a split second |
| 20 |
and then just freeze. The output looks like this from a console: |

I have to press ctrl+c to stop it. I've tried various wave files, |
| 50 |
including ones I've used before that worked before. These same files |
| 51 |
work with arts, except for the lag. Can anybody help me with this? |

Thanks in advance, |
