Package: mplayer2 Version: 2.0-728-g2c378c7-4+b1 Severity: normal Hello,
I routed my audio through pulse so that I can make use of bluetooth audio when connected. When playing though pulse to OSS sound card I get all kind of cracking and popping. This goes away when using the OSS card directly. I did not notice any issue with xmms2 using pulse output. I cannot use ALSA with the sound card because there is some floating input causing noise and alsa does not provide the mute control to turn it off. I am not sure what is with the missing dependencies. The swscale3 library is definitely there: $ dpkg -S /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libswscale.so.3 libswscale3:amd64: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libswscale.so.3 $ dpkg -s libswscale3:amd64 Package: libswscale3 Status: deinstall ok installed Priority: optional Section: libs Installed-Size: 365 Maintainer: Debian Multimedia Maintainers <pkg-multimedia-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> Architecture: amd64 Multi-Arch: same Source: libav Version: 6:11.4-1~deb8u1 Depends: libavutil54 (>= 6:11~beta1), libc6 (>= 2.14) Pre-Depends: multiarch-support Description: Libav video scaling library Libav is a complete, cross-platform solution to decode, encode, record, convert and stream audio and video. .

Homepage: http://libav.org/ Any idea how can mplayer output sound through pulse reliably? iirc I had some pulse problems with mplayer earlier whic I resolved by removing pulse from my system. With BT audio pulse seems unavoidable, unfortunately.
