Hi,
Welcome aboard.
Could you send me the offending ogg file please? I'll see if I can
reproduce the problem here.
There's a note in the Pygame documentation about "scratchy" playback due
to a lack of buffering. It's apparently a bug on Windows, and it's also
not clear if it applies to the mixer.music module, but it might be worth
a go anyway:
http://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/mixer.html#pygame.mixer.init
The suggestion is to do this before the pygame.init() call:
pygame.mixer.pre_init(44100,-16,2, 1024 * 3)
Cheers,
Kelvin.

Hello, I hope I'm posting this to the right list, feel free to shout
nasty things at me if I'm not :)
First a little intro:
A few years ago I got interested in CDG disks and how they work. Long
story short, I ended up learning a bit about it for the few resources
which were available on the internet at the time (it seems much better
these days). I wrote some code (including some to read Q channel data
for some stupid reason) and then gave up without every completing
anything useful.
Recently I've started thinking about making a karaoke device. I started
looking around to see what was available in the open source world these
days and found pykaraoke and cdgtools both very impressive tools.
I've never coded in python before but it all seems very logical when you
start looking at the code.
Anyway on to my main point :)
I was trying not to use mp3 with a view to keeping everything patent
free and open source.
I'm having a small problem with ogg and pykaraoke:
I modified cdgrip.py to work with oggenc by just switching th encoder
line at first I got good cdg files but white noise ogg files. I soon
realised it was an endainness problem. For some reason oggenc seems to
work the opposite way to lame (little endian by default I think) I used
the --raw-endianness 1 switch and it seemed cured.
The problem I'm having now is one of quality when playing the files back
with pykaraoke, there seems to be noticeable distortion in the playback.
This doesn't happen if I play back the encoded ogg in XMMS.
I wonder if anyone has any idea about what is going on?
thanks in advance..
