Audio stuttering on video playback

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello.  I have a new Mythtv setup for recording video.  Everything is working, but I am having problems with the audio playback.  Specifically, on playback the audio sounds “graveley,” i.e. there are very frequent, rapid, short drop-outs.  This happens not only when I play back via Mythtv, but also when I play the mpeg via the Totem movie player in Gnome.

 

To rule out the possibility that the capture device (HDPVR) is defective, I copied the mpeg file onto a windoze machine and played it, and the audio sounds fine.  To rule out some problem with the audio hardware, I played a CD on the linux box, which also sounds fine.

 

Mythtv is configured to use ALSA:front for output.  I don’t know what Totem uses.  The hardware is the onboard audio on a Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3R mobo.  It’s got an Intel chipset (ICH10) and the manual says it uses a Realtek ALC889A codec.  The system is a new FC12 build.

 

I ran the ALSA Audio Debug and the output is below.

 

Any advice on how to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.

 

TIA…Steve
