Description Christopher Eineke 2005-07-09 12:26:21 UTC
Playing a ogg file in beep-media-player-0.9.7 results in choppy ogg playback.
Changing the volume changes the amount of chopiness in the sound. 100% volume
results in clean ogg playback, 0% makes it extremely choppy and doesn't decrease
the volume.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. start beep-media-player
2. play an ogg
3. change the volume and listen to a choppy ogg

Actual Results:  
The ogg file plays choppily after reducing the volume to less than 100%.

Expected Results:  
Properly decrease the playback volume and play the ogg file without garbled and
choppy sound quality.

I changed the freudian in the summary from `beep-media-playback' to
`beep-media-player'. Sorry about that ;)

File result of my .ogg test files:
Ogg data, Vorbis audio, stereo, 44100 Hz, ~160000 bps, created by: Xiph.Org
libVorbis I (1.1.0 RC1)

I don't see the issue here, so it may be amd64-specific. Could you check what
the file result is on your .ogg's? What versions of libogg, libvorbis &
beep-media-player? Are you using ALSA, OSS or an intermediate sound server?

My emerge info, for good measure:

How do I get that list of package versions?

> How do I get that list of package versions?
emerge -pv libvorbis libogg beep-media-player

Besides that;
file /mnt/foo/bar.ogg

What output plugin are you using in BMP?
