I did a colossal mistake installing squeezeplay_7.5.1-9211_all.deb on

Suddenly, I started having problems all over the OS in absolutely
unexpected places (for example I couldn't play .avi files in Movie
Player, applications menu got screwed etc.).
Adter I purge this package
Both softsqueeze and squeezeslave work.
What do you mean Softsqueeze didn't work ?
Didn't start ?
No audio ?
Crashed ?
Given you have had problem with 3 softplayers - I think the issue might
be something in your system config.

I'm not sure who created the Softsqueeze rpm but it looks the issue is

Do you want Softsqueeze on the same system as your server ?
If so, try using installing as a Plugin ?

Not sure what is wrong with the RPM or alien but Softsqueeze doesn't
really need to be installed into /opt.
Try the following.

Hi bpa !
Thanks for your help.
I've just installed Softsqueeze as a plug-in and restarted the server.

The problem is that it plays certian files with increasing speed, so

Any insights why it happens ?

To get help for problem please always give more info with the request.
Softsqueeze is a soft player with only a few inbuilt decoders so it
relies on other app for decoding. So problems can be format specific
so describe issue in more detail ?

Have your problem files been compressed by a non standard encoder ?
You can test by re-encoding the problem files with standard Flac at a
