Now, for the same section of debug output during propper playback (snd_intel8x0m module not loaded): $ su -c "rmmod snd_intel8x0m" $ totem --debug file.ogg . . . vpts adjusted with prebuffer to 108401 load_plugins: plugin mad will be used for audio streamtype 01. audio_oss_out: ao_open rate=44100, mode=8, dev=/dev/dsp audio_oss_out: audio rate : 44100 requested, 43586 provided by device audio_oss_out: 2 channels output output sample rate 43586 will resample audio from 44100 to 43586 xine_play play_internal ...done . . . -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
