Some stations in Germany (Sat-1, Pro7) transmit audio with nonlinear time stamps. This results in very strange noise from the dxr3 output card. I found about the nonlinear time stamps at http://www.offeryn.de/pvas_change_log.htm which says: "at least one TV station (SAT.1) now transmits audio sequences where the presenta tion time for audio frames varies non-linear with the number of frames. For thes e streams V 2.0.7 introduced an echo effect in the output. This has been fixed i n Version 2.0.8" Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Record a video from Sat-1 2.Playback the video Actual Results: Strange noise (like a sine wave at different frequencies) It also happens with the live stream, but the much more with the recording. I guess is due to the fact that new frames are always available when playing from hard disk, while waiting for a new frame from the DVB receiver card in most cased prohibits this strange behaviour. Mplayer can replay the file without any problem. So i guess the problem is related to the vdr-dxr3 plugin. I did some logging from within dxr3outputthread.c. The audio thread runs into the following options only when the noise occurs: if (pts && abs((int)pts-(int)SCR) > 30000 || if (pts && (pts < SCR) && ((SCR - pts) > 5000))
Ping. Can you check whether this bug is still present? Which version is this? Reassigning the bug according to metadata.xml to make new maintainers aware.
so if you told, it is fixed in vdr-dxr3-0.2.8 latest ARCH version in tree is vdr-dxr3-0.2.13 please reopen, if it is still present...
