OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Setting Up 24/96 Playback - Bit Perfect

Jan 25, 2011

I'm looking to find a way to ensure that what I'm hearing from my computer is Bit Perfect, and can also play 24/96khz files.

Audio on Linux has always confused me, so I'm not entirely sure where to start. So if we were to say I'd be starting from a fresh install of OpenSUSE 11.3, where would I have to go to achieve my goal with an M-Audio Audiophile 24/96 Sound Card (ICE1712 Chipset)?

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Amarok Playback Too Fast?

Nov 17, 2010

I'm having an issue with playback in Amarok 2.3 on openSUSE 11.3. When using xine, Amarok will playback songs very quickly, probably something like 3X-4X faster than it should be. There is also no audio output when it does this. Using gstreamer it plays back at normal speed, but also without audio output. I've done some searching for this problem, but haven't found anything helpful. Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Below I'm listing all the multimedia/codec packages that I have installed.

gst-fluendo-mp3-2-37.6.i586
gstreamer-0_10-0.10.29-1.7.i586
gstreamer-0_10-ffmpeg-0.10.6-42.pm.1.i586

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: 11.3 KDE - No Sound On AVI Movies Playback

I installed opensuse 11.3 KDE for the first time last week. Amarok works fine with mp3 files. Also I installed VLC and kaffiene with all available codecs but unfortunately I have no sound in my avi movies. I can not know what is the reason although it was working fine in windows.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Sound Stuttering In Movie Playback...

Dec 23, 2009

I have some videos on my harddrive. In most of them the sound just stutters for a short while and then they work fine. But others the stuttering seems to go on. I must admit I didn't have the guts to check the whole videos...Its kind of torture to watch a full length music video with stuttering sound... Man...I'm asking so many questions here I'm starting to get ashamed of myself

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: 11.2 - Jittery Video Playback And Not Watchable?

Mar 14, 2010

I just finished trying to install the codecs for various audio/video playback (Restricted Formats/11.2 - openSUSE - Community) and now I can play flash, mp3s and such but most of the video playback is very jittery and is not watchable. I have now tried it with mplayer and kaffine but still the same. I had this problem before as well and even tried VLC but no luck. I had thought I could just add the Nvidia repository and type in my graphics card, install and be done with it but no such luck (nothing even comes up when I type geforce).

I'm getting choppy playback in flash, 32bit. It's fine until I go fullscreen. Anyone have any ideas? I was thinking of installing the 64bit version of opensuse.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Mp4 Playback In Banshee - Get It To Play Any Mp4 Files ?

Nov 17, 2010

I just started using openSUSE 11.3, and the default music player that it uses is Banshee. I installed the required plugins and packages to get mp3 playback to work, but I cant seem to find a way to get it to play any mp4 files. This wouldn't normally be a problem, but a lot of my music is in that format and I cant get any of it to play.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: VLC, MPlayer Slow On Playback Of HD Files?

Apr 6, 2011

I can't seem to watch 576p or 720p files without either VLC tearing and blocking or MPlayer freezing for a few frames, or stuttering. I can't figure out why.

I have a Intel Q6600 and a GTX480 with the latest drivers on OpenSUSE 11.4. Qt 4.7.1

On VLC 1.1.8/1.2.0 I've tried X11 video out, XVideo video out and GLX video out. I've also tried enabling hardware decoding under Advanced > Inputs/Codecs > FFmpeg to no avail.

On MPlayer 0.6.9, I set my cores to 4, and and tried XVideo output and VDPAU output.

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Renoise Works Perfect But No Other App Has Sound

Feb 8, 2010

Recently I installed Renoise demo and followed their install instructions from the Renoise 2.1 quickstart guide. It said if you get any errors to do the following:

Configuring Realtime Threads:
If you get a warning message when you start Renoise, read this section. To allow Renoise to create realtime threads, which are required for low latencies with ALSA or JACK, you have to
edit the /etc/security/limits.conf file. A realtime kernel does NOT help here, it does not set the required options automatically! To enable RT thread creation via PAM open the /etc/security/limits.conf file in a text editor as root (or sudo). Then somewhere near the end of the file add:

YOURUSERNAME - rtprio 99
YOURUSERNAME - nice -10
Replace YOURUSERNAME with your username. You can discover this with the 'whoami' command.
Alternatively you could also create a group named "Audio", add your user to that group, and use '@Audio'
instead of 'YOURUSERNAME'.
Save the file. Log Out. Login. At this point it should be working. To verify that it works, launch Renoise, select ALSA and make sure the 'Realtime threads' option is on. You will get a friendly warning like the one above. If RT creation failed. Try again.

Jack Configuration
If you don't have "Jack Control (JACK Audio Connection Kit)", we recommend that you install it.
Jack Control allows easy Audio/MIDI routing with an intuitive GUI. On Ubuntu:
$ sudo apt-get install jackd qjackctl
Now you can start it from [Applications] -> [Audio] -> [Jack Control].
Click the "Setup" button, and set following values:
Change the "Priority" value to 89. (If you use realtime kernel, also add check mark beside "Realtime")
Change the "Periods/buffer" value to 3 or more.

In addition, please configure latency and other settings according to the needs of your system. Now I don't have sound where and when I used to, for example: songbird no longer plays sound tho it plays the track and no sound in web browsers aswell, like ..... plays but no sound. It has to be something simple because audio for everything was fine until editing that one file and installing that audio jack program.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: When Watching DVD's And Video Clips / DVD Playback Flickkers Red

Dec 7, 2009

I am running openSUSE 11.1 on a Pentium Dual Core 2.5 (E5200) Processor, 2GB RAM and an NVidia 8400GS PCI Express display card.When I intitially installed my system I also installed VLC media player, at that time it was version 1.0.1, Mplayer and SMplayer a few codecs for K3B, handbrake for DVD ripping etc. That was also the only time since my computer has been online, i have never updated it since. And it had no problems whatsoever. Among other things I use my system to watch DVD's. I watched many DVD's and video clips flawlessly.

Now all of a sudden when watching DVD's and video clips the DVD playback flickkers red (the color red). I am not sure what causes it and it is very irritating. It flickkers even more with video clips. With a DVD it dissappears after a while but as soon as you move your mouse pointer or click on the screen it starts to flickker red again.I thought it was my NVidia card that might be faulty, but I booted up from a Puppy linux live-cd and I played a DVD from there and it works 100%.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: DVD And MP3 Playback - Running All The Necessary Files - Codecs - Apps

Dec 26, 2009

For the longest time DVD and MP3 playback have haunted me. I fully understand the idea behind open source and not packaging the codecs with the OS. My question is this: I am running openSUSE 11.2 on my lappy. When I try to follow steps online to install all the necessary codecs, plugins and applications. I always seem to run into dependency problems. Can ANYONE out there give a step by step walk through of installing and running all the necessary files, codecs, apps. from a fresh install that has worked for them to get media to work in suse 11.2? For the sake of example and trying to get this process done right lets assume that I have installed suse fresh on my system and want to play DVD's and listen to MP3's.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: VLC - During Video-playback The Screenbrightness Is Turned To Zero After Approx- 30 Seconds

Dec 1, 2009

I've got a problem with my VLC MediaPlayer (v1.0.3-GoldenEye). During video-playback, my screenbrightness is turned to zero after approx- 30 seconds of playback. After turning the screen brightness to high again, the same thing starts over again. By now, I encountered that changing screen resolutions (e.g. after closing a fullscreen application with a different resolution) also turns my brightness to 0.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: XBMC Playback Of DVD Folders Broken After Packman Updates?

OpenSUSE :: SUSE Would Be Perfect If It Used Debian Package Mangement

Oct 19, 2009

The more I use openSUSE 11.2, the more I love it. Today, I tried another highly recommended KDE4 distro, and while it was nice, I immediately recognized that the excellent integration and refinements SUSE includes are very much to my liking. openSUSE is nearly perfect for me in every way -- except one. The package management continues to leave me baffled.I was hoping I would eventually learn to like it as much as Synaptic, aptitude/apt-get and the other tools on Debian-based distros. But the more I read, the more I am questioning whether I will ever like it.I'm now fairly convinced that Debian-based package management is the gold standard. (Of course, I'm just going on what I have read. I'm far from expert, and I'm hoping to get educated by posting questions like this one.)

But I doubt I will find a distro that is equal to openSUSE in every way except that it uses Debian-based package management. (I wish such a distro existed.)So, if I have to live with YaST, zypper, RPMs, etc., how can I learn to have the best experience with the least amount of investment? Low investment is important because if I really wanted to invest the time to become more of an expert in operating systems, package management, etc., I would probably just jump to Arch Linux and KDEmod and enjoy a rolling release. Or maybe Gentoo, etc. What I like about openSUSE is that it just works. It works out of the box. Except for package management.

deal with the initial setup of all the stuff on another (Debian-based) distro that isn't to my liking or that just doesn't work, and then thereafter enjoy that distro's good package management..have a great out of the box experience and the overall nicest initial OS experience I ever remember, but live every day with a package management system that isn't up to what I experienced under Ubuntu.Quote from the link above: It is almost unfair to include Red Hat in the same category as Suse because, frankly, Suse makes Red Hat look like geniuses. I don't know why a company which can create arguably the most attractive and professional looking distribution available in the Linux world has such a godawful package manager.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Output One Playback Stream To Multiple Devices Simultaneously With The Current PulseAudio / Phonon Setup?

Jun 9, 2011

Is it possible to output one playback stream to multiple devices simultaneously with the current PulseAudio / Phonon setup? The PulseAudio mixer only has radio buttons to choose one device per playback stream. I believe the hardware is capable of this, since I remember doing that before we had PulseAudio. How can I duplicate an audio stream?

Here's one application scenario: I am travelling with my family, all crammed in small hotel room. My wife and me want to watch a movie on my laptop without waking up our kids. I just happen to have one analogue headphone available and one wireless USB headset with me. (Of course, the low tech solution is to bring an 3,5mm Y-cable to attach two analogue headsets, but I would really love to use the USB headset together with the analogue one.)

Another similar thing that bugs me is that my laptop's built-in speakers now always seem dead when an analogue headphone is plugged in. This is mostly what one wants, and before PulseAudio, one had to manually switch them off which was generally annoying. However, the downside is for example with notifications.

For example, before PulseAudio, I could configure Skype to always ring over the laptop's built-in speakers, regardless of whether the analogue headphones were plugged in. This is no longer possible, since PulseAudio does not distinguish between built-in speakers and built-in analogue port any more, while old Alsa did. So in my office, where some analogue headphones are plugged into the docking station, I never hear Skype ringing if I don't wear the headphones.

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Setting Mic In PulseAudio?

Jun 16, 2011

When I first installed 11.4 I was unable to access the usb webcam mic on Skype. I use Tumbleweed and after a couple of KDE updates I was able to access the webcam mic in Skype. I did this by setting the webcam mic as the first device to use in either pavucontrol or systemsettings>multimedia>phonon>audio capture. There have been many KDE updates since then and now I am back to having no mic in Skype. I will set my webcam mic as described above but pavucontrol will no longer save my changes. It is permanently stuck using internal audio analog stereo as the first capture device. My webcam mic is listed but it is four down on the list and Skype will not access it.

How can I get pavucontrol to save my preferences?

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Alsamixer Mic Setting Not Preserved

Aug 17, 2011

I was having trouble with using my T500's internal microphone, and I figured out that if I run alsamixer in terminal, and if I increase the level of "internal mic," then it works fine. Now the problem is that it seems periodically the setting reverts and I lose the mic volume and I have to re run alsamixer and do the setting again.

Is there any way I can set this setting in KDE, and preserve the setting once it is done?

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Sound Level Setting Very Slow

I'm using OpenSuse 11.4 64 bits with KDE 4.6.00 (4.6.0) "release 6". Since several days, the sound level setting via the sound icon at the right of the task bar is very slow, ie it takes several seconds (not to say one minut or more) between the action of increase / decrease the sound level and the effect on the sound level.Same behaviour when I select this sound level icon at the right of the task bar, the cursor appears one minut later.

Debian Multimedia :: VLC Playback Broken By Deb-multimedia Upgrade

Jun 14, 2011

I am using debian squeeze and did an aptitude upgrade yesterday. Today I've found that VLC won't play any video; the files open and the audio plays, but the video is black. The aptitude log is below.

I note that VLC received a security upgrade a few days ago, but my suspicion is that the source of this problem is more likely to be the upgrade of libavcodec52 from version 4:0.5.2.6 -> 5:0.6.1+svn20101128-0.2. I believe this upgrade came from the debian-multimedia stable repo I have enabled.

Does this sound right, and what could I do to fix my VLC playback? This is new territory for me, and I'm slightly surprised that such an upgrade would come from the stable branch of debian-multimedia (although I know this is not an official source).

OpenSUSE Multimedia :: Setting Sansa MTP Player To Show As Media Device?

Jun 1, 2011

I'm using OpenSUSE-11.4+KDE and have not been able to access my Sansa Express drive. I can pull it up part way, but it acts as read only. I'm not sure what settings I may need to make in the Partitioner to fix this.If I boot into a LiveCD of LinuxMint10-KDE and plug it in it is instantly identified as a "Media Device," and I have access into the MTP section of it I believe.

I prefer using Banshee, but will use Dolphin to manual drop files it I can get the Sansa drive to operate as with Read+Write. I've seen this device listed here at "plug and play" [URL]../HCL:Gadgets#Media_Players
