So, when you play the same in mplayer and opera is _not_ running, the problem does _not_ occur, right? > > i dont see a patern yet, but for example during > > watching the movie the volume level keeps changing > > accompanied by an audible pop. > > > > it could be an mplayer issue as well of course, > > i am just writing here if anyone else is having > > similar issues. i have seen the a thread about > > aucat and volume's but i am not using aucat or any > > other audio daemon... So mplayer is the only one talking to the audio device, and opera running simuktaneously doesn;t enter into it, IMO.
