Package: mpeglib Version: 4:3.2.2-1 Severity: important Tags: sid Since upgrading to mpeglib 3.2.2-1, decoding of mp3s using mpeglib sounds dreadful, full of strange MPEG artifacts. Version 3.2.1-1 works perfectly, as do players built around other MP3 decoders (e.g. XMMS, mpg123, mpg321). Given that there appears to be no code change in the upstream release from 3.2.1-1, is this possibly a compiler/optimization bug, maybe only on i386?
To reproduce, simply use: yaf-splay foo.mp3 High-frequency sounds such as hi-hats appear to trigger the artifacts more than other sounds. This also happens when playing the mp3 using arts/libarts1-mpeglib, so I don't think it's a problem with yaf-splay's output routines - it doesn't sound like it either. Ogg Vorbis files play perfectly using yaf-vorbis or through arts. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.4-ck1 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C Versions of packages mpeglib depends on: ii kdelibs4 4:3.2.2-1 KDE core libraries ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcdparanoia0 3a9.8-11 Shared libraries for cdparanoia (r ii libgcc1 1:3.3.3-6 GCC support library ii libogg0 1.1.0-1 Ogg Bitstream Library ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.3-6 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libvorbis0a 1.0.1-1 The Vorbis General Audio Compressi ii libvorbisfile3 1.0.1-1 The Vorbis General Audio Compressi ii libx11-6 4.3.0-7 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 4.3.0-7 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxv1 4.3.0-7 X Window System video extension li ii xlibs 4.3.0-7 X Window System client libraries m -- no debconf information
