[cdparanoia] audio playback glitches using cdparanoia
Last modified: 2005-02-08 14:41:16 UTC
Audio cd playback using cdparanoia has a brief gap every two seconds, almost as if the cd is skipping (but it isn't). This happens using both esdsink and alsasink (untested with other sinks) and using the ~5 cds that I tried. The following reproduces the problem on my system: gst-launch-0.8 cdparanoia ! alsasink gst-launch-0.8 cdparanoia ! esdsink gstreamer: 0.8.7 gst-plugins: 0.8.6
Do you have DMA enabled on your CDROM?
Yep: mjg@wintermute:~$ hdparm -d /dev/hdc /dev/hdc: using_dma = 1 (on) mjg@wintermute:~$
Does using "gst-launch cdparanoia ! queue ! { alsasink }" solve it for you? I've had more people report this and the above fixed it for them. I'll probably add that to gnome-cd, too.
Yes! Works nicely. Thanks.
I've added that to gnome-cd. Closing bug.
