while listening to some of my mp3s i noticed -r8 seems to skip just under a second of the start of some if not all (hard to tell since some start with silence) aside for missing part of hte song at times it also at times gives me pops im using the alsa output plugin with mmap output checked -r7 didnt have this problem Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

can you give me a url to one such file? Do the skipping ones all have id3v2 tags?
Also, can you try adding this line above the 'epatch' line in the ebuild ant try again. I suspect the problem is in this patch, but I want to be certain. EPATCH_EXCLUDE="2015_all_mpg123-id3v2edit.patch" Thanks.
well i can provide a mp3 to you if needed most of the mp3s i have use id3v2 tags ill try out that epatch line shortly on a side note it disappears if you disable mad mpeg decoder and mp4 input plugins also seems to appear in -r7 i guess not as noticable tho or perhaps doesnt pop as much so isnt noticable as much
the exclude doesnt help disabling still seems to be the way to go
oh, then this is a bug with xmms-mad, not xmms. What version of xmms-mad and mad do you have? What I need tested out in xmms-1.2.10-r8 is the mpg123 plugin (which you get by disabling mad).
[ebuild R ] media-plugins/xmms-mad-0.5.6-r1 well mpg123 does seem to be working fine so far then
have you tried tweaking you CFLAGS ? I find that xmms-mad doesn't work too well if compiled with anything above -march=i686
okay spoke too soon, I get it skip even with that (funny I tested a whole day without skips before...), just tested alsa without mmap, skips seems to be gone (famous last words...)

what about recompiling libmad with CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe"?
hi folks, i have the same problem (using the same versions of libmad,etc.) :( "recompiling libmad with CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe"? -> sorry, no change only solution so far seems to be disabling xmms-mad. i now use mpg123 instead and everything seems to be alright.
could someone experiencing this please try the 'madplay' command line program and report whether or not it displays the same skip?
hi jeremy, i tried madplay in a console and guess what: no skipping(!?) greetings
well atleast that means we know it's in the plugin, not the lib... does changing the output plugin have any effect? Perhaps it's an interacction between the two... I wish I could reproduce it =(
can you please try xmms-mad-0.7
i used it for a while and i didnt hear any problems tho i didnt use it as long as i did last time before i had noticed problems
hi jeremy, tried xmms-mad-0.7 for about 3 days now. works fine here, no skipping anymore ;)
great =)
but wait, now it seems like something else is wrong. i can't listen to onlinestreams using the xmmsmad-plugin, while the mpg123-plugins works as usual. !? sorry, i have to check a few things, that's a little bit confusing to me.
that has always been the case.
