 Are you playing MP3s and if so, are you
  using
the MAD vs MP123  
plugin? I forget which caused a problem in
  Linux,
but I think if you  
use the libMAD it shouldn't stutter (or maybe
 it
   was
vice versa).

Re: Skipping/Stuttering Sound in XMMS

2005-09-19 Thread John Do
To play XMMS with libmad you need to get the xmms-mad
port

The main thing that solved the problem was turning up
the buffers for all output codecs in XMMS.

It also helped to go to the KDE sound system and raise
that sound buffer and enable high priority.

I still can't play MIDI files though but I'll make a
new e-mail about that to avoid confusion

As a side note libmad does have a little bit of
stuttering and it seems the buffer was the issue with
libmpg123

Skipping/Stuttering Sound in XMMS

Does anyone know why the sound skips and often
stutters in XMMS?

I don't seem to have this problem in other random
media players in FreeBSD.

I'm also wondering why it won't show MIDI support even
though it is detected for PCM sound.  I have an old
Soundblaster Live Card

Thanks for your help guys
