Hello,
I posted a problem with getting linux to
play MP3's 2 weeks ago. They came out as
static. Turns out that my 8-bit SB-Pro
was being handed a 16-bit sound sample.
X11apm and MPEG123 both suffered from this problem.
To corrrect it, I used the -o 8 option, to step the
sound down to something the card copuld digest.
It worked, but the sound is playing at 1/5th normal
speed.
Apparently, the card's dsp wants a 8kHz signal, and
the MP3's are at 44kHz. Does anyone know how to play
mp3s, successfully. Has anyone on this list done it?
If so, could you tell me how? Even if you don't
have an SB-Pro, Your setup proceedure might point me
in the right direction.
Thanks,
Bryan Scaringe
