Hi, I have been doing a bit of alsa stuff, so: I deinstalled _everything_ I could find concerning alsa. I installed the newest stable driver libary and utilities. Following the INSTALL files _very_ tight. I did exactly what it said there. After I had insterted the emu10k1 module and after having given the card some volume, again, I was able to play mp3's admirably. Then I tried xine.
If I play a video (it was an avi, "The Matrix") using the alsa driver (-A alsa05), then I get massive syncronisation problems (many secs) after e.g. skiping to the middle of the film I got near 5 sec. Also: I get repeating sound when pressing pause, which is very anoying. If I play the same video with the oss emulation (-A oss), then The sync is good, as allways with oss there are _tiny_ differences (0.1 sec maybe), also, pause gives me a pause in sound too. (No infinite replays of the last seconds). So, at the moment it is better to use oss-emulation. Before I had to install alsa freshly (because of a kernel change) I did not have the mentioned problems while using (-A alsa05) (I had _perfect_ sync and normal pause). So, I'm wondering: What could I be doing wrong ?
