Subject: [gentoo-user] Xine and Mplayer Sound problems



Recently whenever I try to play a CD, or a file such as an .avi, Xine
instead generates a xine-out.wav and no sound. The video portion looks
perfect.
If I play the xine-out.wav, it is the audio track from the file I tried
to play.

Trying to play that same .avi with Mplayer yields a pop-up window.
It reports an error, DVB card number must be between 1 and 4.
Like Xine, the video portion displays without problems.

Anyone have any ideas on possible causes?

Trying something like Ekiga, which has sound and video, works without
problems.

Thanks
Sean





What your USE flags for mplayer and xine? are Xine and Mplayer setup 
correctly? Make sure there are is no option set to save audio to files.
