[Bug 6366] Re: Please enable AAC Support in ffmpeg

2010-03-20 Thread sideshowmel
When I upgraded to Karmic, I had to rebuild ffmpeg from source with aac support. Ever since, it doesn't work correctly. The sound quality is significantly degraded when encoding wav to aac, even on audio that previously worked fine with the exact same settings. So something is definitely wrong

This bug bites me all the time. Autofsck has another problem that's even worse, though, so I had to remove it: If Autofsck prompts that a disk needs checking, and I select OK on reboot, the system comes back up, checks the disks, then shuts down!! I'd rather sit through the disk checking with no

Public bug reported: If you reboot and Autofsck prompts to tell you an fsck is needed, if you ignore or click cancel, all is well... computer reboots, no fsck is run. IF you click OK, all appears to work fine at first... the computer reboots, fsck starts. But then when it's complete, the

To recreate the problem that I am seeing, you MUST use a password- protected private key. Mine is 4096-bit RSA, but I've done a bit of searching and see this is happening for users with 1024 and 2048 bit RSA keys as well. -- ssh are using ssh-userauth but ignores private key

So it would appear that this is, in fact a hardware issue (at least in my case). Like I said, my mem, mobo, proc, and HDD's all were good. The one thing I never considered: power supply. It would appear that one of my drives was consistently receiving too little power. It just occured to me out

I've read through this and countless other posts about this issue (which I am also experiencing). It truly does render the computer useless. The only big thing that jumps out at me in this thread is that everyone is mentioning problems with their CD/DVD drives, and upgrading firmware, etc.

Also I didn't think about it until reading through this thread, but it seems to most often happen after I try to do a large file copy (over about 1GB) or after several days of system uptime. I would say that one of those two situations occur just prior to me seeing this problem almost every time.
