Just to make sure, does this happen with local mplayer builds? @2: What exacltly do you mean by that? I mean that if you compile the cvs mplayer source, does this issue occur? By knowing that, I can tell whether this is a Gentoo issue or not. Maybe this is http://bugzilla.mplayerhq.hu/show_bug.cgi?id=198 ? Sounds exactly like it as I used gmplayer and I do use alsa... Looks like the alsa patch (http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=10552053) didn't make it in portage yet. I'll try with that alsa patch and see if the problem still exists. If that fixes it maybe open an alsa bug? Created attachment 50594 [details, diff] Alsa mixer memleak patch This is the alsa patch from http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=10552053 It seems to fix the memleak that gmplayer+alsa is experiencing.

wow.. that's a sad one liner. I'll have a look at this today. Annnnnnnd a couple of weeks later (ouch..). The one line is now in portage. Thanks for posting. CC-ing rest of the sound herd so they have documentation about the bug. |
