[linux-dvb] AW: Re: VDR and DVD with pause -> noise corrupt

[Andreas Vitting]

Hi,
that's not all!! To the point we get the data to cDVDplayBuffer::handleAC3
all the data is ok (my ac3 decoder works also after a pause/pause or
pause/play very well). So the data stream is not out of sync during the
pause (a little bit delayed, not more). So the same data is send to
"ac3dec_decode_data" - and then something happens ?? After the pause button
(and then pressing pause or play) the sound is (only for ac3dec) chirpy and
corrupt (also other people reported this).
I'm a little bit confused, because the acdec needs also native ac3 sound and
nothing else !!

Bye
Andreas

Because then no audio data is feed to the card anymore, the real problem
has somewhat to do with the audio muting. If you apply the patch, the
noise will go away.

My guess is, that the audio frames get out of sync because they contain
not time stamp. Maybe frames like that are not allowed or it's a driver bug?

Klaus: Is the muting really needed for normal VDR playback? I can't hear
a difference with or without it.

Have fun
