| Post subject: | xine freeze -- solved |
I don't know why my original post disappeared (probably because it could not be solved), but since I finally found a solution, I thought I'd post it here again in case others run into the same problem. My problem was that xine would freeze after upgrading. I finally traced it back to the alsa driver. Rebuilding/reinstalling also did not work, so the solution was to use the oss driver instead: 1. xine -A oss This should bring up the xine window without freezing. When it terminates the config file will be written, so I 2. edit .xine/config and check that you have the uncommented line Quote: audio.driver:oss Now xine should start without the need of an extra parameter. I also wanted spdif passthrough, which for OSS required additional steps: 3. edit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa and enter the line Quote: options snd-pcm-oss dsp_map=2 4. Now reload module snd_pcm_oss by typing Quote: rmmod snd_pcm_oss modprobe snd_pcm_oss 5. Finally enable pass-through by editing .xine/config and uncommenting/changing the line Quote: audio.output.speaker_arrangement:Pass Through
Xine should be running now--if you had the same problem as I did, anyway ... |

It disappears because you're not posting inthe proper forum, so the maintainer of this site deletes it. You problem is not about installation of Knoppmyth. It's about Xine. Try Knoppmyth:General or Knoppmyth:Hints & Tips. This forum is for Knoppmyth (The Linux Distribution) Installation issues ONLY. |

What Mike said. Cecil really means it when he says "Posts that don't belong in installation will be deleted" and "Please read before posting". It really sucks to have a posting you spent a bunch of time on deleted, but that's part of what makes it the only policy that seems to work for getting people to post in the right place. |
