Like to jump on the bandwagon here and say I've seen the problem on two separate machines now.
It actually happens somewhat randomly. Seems, that at least in one case. Everything was working swimmingly and then watched some vids on YouTube...and then every media file (.avi, .mpg, .mp3, .wav etc...) was in super slow motion. Any audio file looks as if it's trying to work, but never does anything, and as others have said any video of any kind plays in very slow motion. Just changed to ALSA and applied and all was well. I remember this was something I had to do on my kubuntu box as well, about a year ago or so. I really feel like this is something that must be addressed pretty quickly. The other place I saw it was a with a friend that has never used Linux before, and it constantly curising it right now because of this very problem....not a very good sign for Ubuntu or Linux in general. We really need to focus on thinking about the user experience from the stand point of those that just don't know that much about computers. What are they to expect with little problems like this...which really shouldn't be a problem. Oh well as is life I suspect. But this on top of the fact that the past few times I've done version upgrades on my kubuntu box I've had to go back and manually do stuff to get some aspect of the system back up and running again. Hell this last time I lost the ability to boot after an upgrade because of how they handle the upgrades of the headers and nvidia drivers. Really getting sick of having to search the Net trying to figure out how to fix my Ubuntu or Kubuntu boxes because some normal automatic update screwed up my system. -- unknown video plays in slow motion in full screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/221488 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
