Description Gabriel Devenyi 2003-09-26 13:47:54 UTC
When I queue up my music collection and go to play a song, anything that is in 
ogg format "plays" through, with sound, or movement of the visualizer/
ocilloscope. It then moves on to the next song. MP3s play fine. 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open XMMS 
2. Try and play an ogg 
3. 
Actual Results:  
OGG files produce no sound, but do go through the entire length of the song. 

Expected Results:  
Had sound out of the speakers :P

Comment 1 Sebastian Dröge 2003-09-27 09:12:57 UTC
works for me here
Comment 2 Gabriel Devenyi 2003-09-27 09:14:50 UTC
On further investigation it appears Noautn (kde's player) won't play ogg
as well, perhaps its a libogg issue...
Comment 3 Gabriel Devenyi 2003-09-27 17:39:20 UTC
and again upon further investigation, ogg123, a part of vorbis-tools also
yeilds no sound.
Comment 4 J. Ellis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-09-27 17:48:57 UTC
rebuild libvorbis with -see in USE.
Comment 5 J. Ellis (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-09-27 23:38:58 UTC
My previous comment shoud, of course, read with -sse in USE. I probably wouldn't
hurt to add -3dnow to that as well. Please report back.
Comment 6 Christoph 2003-10-17 09:41:34 UTC
rebuilding libvorbis with USE="-sse" corrected the problem I was having where
XMMS would crash with an Illegal Instruction error when trying to play OGG
files. Perhaps a USE flag filter is in order?
Comment 7 Michal Sylwester 2003-10-25 15:13:18 UTC
Had the same problem. Re-emerging libvorbis with USE=-3dnow solved it. 
BTW: I'm using AthlonXP, so in theory 3dnow should work...
Comment 8 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-11-21 08:12:48 UTC
could you please try with latest gcc/glibc ?
Comment 9 Marc Ozon 2003-12-06 20:03:51 UTC
No crashing problems here, but this might be related.  I noticed recently that ogg files weren't sounding good on one of my machines -- highs seemed cut off, and there was more noise than I thought there should have been.  I didn't remember anything that might have caused it (done a fair amount of emerging on this machine since I last played an ogg), but after reading the comments here, I did some recompiling, and sure enough, playback with a libvorbis compiled with -sse sounded much better -- interestingly, even with "-mfpmath=sse" in my $CFLAGS.  I did a bit more recompiling, and have concluded that 3dnow didn't cause any sound problems, just sse.  Practical result:  the libvorbis currently installed on this machine has been compiled with USE="3dnow -sse", but not with -mfpmath=sse in $CFLAGS, just in case; things sound fine.

Using gcc-3.2.3-r3, glibc-2.3.2-r3, kernel 2.4.23-ck1, Duron 1200 (-march=athlon-xp), libvorbis-1.0-r4, xmms-1.2.7-r20.
Comment 10 Jeremy Huddleston (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-01-31 21:22:49 UTC
Marc, can you test out your vorbis problem with the latest version of xmms (1.2.9-r1) and libvorbis (1.0.1-r2 I believe).  If the problem persists, please open a new bug.  As for THIS bug, I'm closing it due to lack of response from the submitter.
