Title: Pitching Sound with 7.10rc2 when the MD on Hybrid is started
Post by: patmankn on May 14, 2008, 11:34:21 pm

Dear all,

i just freak out with a strange behavior:
when i play a mp3 with high pitch like feist - I'm sorry, the sound
sux an the higher frequencies.
First i update the alsa driver/libs/utils from 1.14 to 1.16, no success.
After that i stopped LinuxMCE and played that mp3 with mplayer via ssh.
Result => PERFECT Sound.
When i start the LMCE Core Services the sound is still good...
The Moment i start the Media Station we're back to business... Sound sux.
This all happens WHILE playing that song.

Ok here are my specs:
MSI 7329 (MSI Media Live)
Audio Realtek  ALC883

I do connect LMCE via a chinch cable to my stereo

For now i did NOT test
-if sound sux with older LMCE Versions (7.10 always did)
-different wiring like spdif
-playing the mplayer mp3 via ssh with standarf LMCE goven ALSA
-if sound stucks on different MD

Does anybody else have this problem or could help me out here? ;O)

Ok... is Solved.
On these MSI 7329 board... you better do NOT have 128MB Texture Memory for the onboard graphics  in the BIOS ;O)
Amazing, how this did have effect on stability, video, sound etc...

Ok... lets rock... finally LinuxMCE works as suggested ;O))
