No, it doesn't either - the same codepath seems to be used and it complains that "playback is late" and flushing buffers to try and fix it. I made some more tests using all software I have installed, though (some of them probably sharing libraries) : - Audacity works - mPlayer and mpv work - Parole works - Totem works - Rhythmbox works Basically it seems only VLC tries to sync audio to video instead of the contrary :) -- Colin -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
