I just updated all my vorbis tools to the latest libs (libogg, libao, and libvorbis) as well as vorbis-tools on my Slackware 10.0 system with a 2.6.6 kernel using the ALSA internal drivers. What I'm getting is whenever I run ogg123, it begins playing a track but then quits with the following errors. - ----- Begin error log ----- Script started on Tue 30 Nov 2004 09:29:39 PM MST steve at lnx3:~$ logout[Kogg123 oggtst.ogg Audio Device: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) output Playing: oggtst.ogg Ogg Vorbis stream: 2 channel, 44100 Hz Killed steve at lnx3:~$ exit exit Script done on Tue 30 Nov 2004 09:30:36 PM MST - ----- End Session ----- Well, the goddamn script log filled up with uninteligible garbage and the message became too large. I can't seem to find the error messages to paste into the log here but suffice it to say that the track would play for a several seconds and then "killed". There was something in there about assertion or something. when I get home tonight, I'll have to try and cut/paste the messages with Speakup's wonder cut/paste buffer. Where would we be without the cut/paste feature?!! Anyone know what might cause this? Thanks for any possible help. <Steve> - -- HolmesGrown Solutions The best solutions for the best price! http://ld.net/?holmesgrown
