Anyway, try EFXmms as it let you use several efect plugins at the same
time: it shows the ones available and you select wich ones are to be in
use.

A couple things you can try:

1) Update xmms. One version had some problems that may be related.

2) Use a different decoder and convert the MP3 to wav. Then re-code back
to MP3. This will update the header.

3) Delete (or move) your .xmms directory.

[expert] XMMS crashing

[Guy Van Sanden]

Hi guys

I have this weird problem with XMMS.
It crashes on one of my PC's with specific mp3 files, which is identical
in installation to the other one.  No special message is given.

The system runs Mandrake 9.1 with KDE 3.1.3tex.
Packages installed (on both systems) are:
xmms-1.2.7-18mdk
mpg123-0.59r-17.1mdk
arts-1.1.3-1tex
xmms-arts-0.4-8mdk

mpg123 on that system plays them fine, but says (on both systems):
Playing MPEG stream from Ronan Keating - InThisLife.foutemp3 ...
Junk at the beginning 49443303
MPEG 1.0 layer III, 128 kbit/s, 44100 Hz stereo

A lot of my MP3 files have this problem, but they have always played
fine (they even worked on that sytem on Mandrake 9.0, and work fine with
noatun).

Any ideas on what the problem is?

Thanks

Guy

I'd like to use an effect plug-in, but just _one_. As far as I can tell,
you have to use all them or none of them which strikes me as remarkably

I had a similar problem. Doesn't crash my box but I get a horrible sound
until I reboot, sometimes it's just a sudden drop in sound quality, but a 
/etc/rc.d/init.d/sound restart fixes it. 

I am not using kde though.. anyway I switched to freeamp which seems more
stable.

 I had such problems with a few sound chipsets. The one to blame was
 the kde arts, sound deamon. Just disable it and restart kde.

Re: [expert] XMMS no sound although soundcard works

[Will]

Sound like you're using the disk writer output plugin.  The fast playback is a dead 
giveaway. 
 Press ctrl+P to pop up the XMMS preferences window, and change the output plugin to 
OSS 
driver  (or Esound plugin, if you use ESD).  Also, since XMMS was writing it's output 
to 
disk, every MP3 you've played this way exists as a .wav file somewhere in your home 
dir now.

Copy them to your ~/.xmms/Skins/ Directory.

[expert] XMMS + CMI8738: Skipping sound & breaking up playback

[Skywise]

Hello expert,

  I have ML7.2 running on a PII-300 (Biostar M6VBE-A Motherboard). My
  sound board is a MD Mate by AudioExcel with the CMI8738 chipset
  (Chipset manufactor website at www.cmedia.com.tw).
  When I play an MP3 file with the XMMS the playback stops without
  reason, sometimes the time in the display runs trough faster,
  sometimes it just stops. When I hit pause and then play the song
  continues until it breaks up again.
  From my times as slackware user I know there is somekind of problem
  with the OSS Sound System and the cmpci module, it was suggested not
  to use it and just use it as normal device instead - well, I am
  kinda afraid of touching anything with mandrake, since there all all
  those neat setup tools, so I hope one of yu has an idea.
  I allready searched the website & the mail archive, unfortionatly
  without success.
  If you have any idea and/or suggestion how to get it work with the
  OSS or how to use the "old" sound /dev .. please let me know :)

  Best Regards,
  Sky

 There're several factors determining if other languages are supported
by a particular programme:
1) the application must have been programmed to read LC_* variables
2) translations must have been done for a particular language
3) the programme has to change font according to encoding (and the programme
has to be able to handle multibyte encoding)
4) the font file(s) must be available in X

 According to your description, I believe that 1) and 2) are satisfied.
The problem might be 3) or 4), and I don't think this is the fault of
Mandrake.  In fact, I never managed to make KDE display in Asian multibyte
languages.  Quite disappointed!

That's a DATA CD, though, effectively. I'm talking about
these hybrid CDs that have data AND music. I know there are
some rock groups out there that are publishing web pages,

In XMMS go to preferences, Audio I/O, and enable Audio CD Player. Then press OK
and go to the open file dialog (or the playlist dialog if you prefer), and look
into /mnt/cdrom, where you'll see the audio tracks.

Actually, for audio thats true.

But if its like the Ozzy Osbourne CD I have with .qwk movies, you need
to mount
it like a regular iso9660 CD. ( You probably know this.. :) )

You can't mount an audio CD, so that's not a problem.  Here's the
series of steps I take to use XMMS with CDs.  Hope it's easy to follow:

Open Playlist, and say "New List" to clear out anything that might be
in the way.

Choose Dir + (add Directory), then move to the /mnt/cdrom and hit OK.

Up pops the full CD, and after a couple seconds the CDDB listing of the
tracks appears.

You DON'T mount audio CDs. You merely specify the default
"mount" location. For example, if using the standard mount
points, you tell XMMS to use /mnt/cdrom and to play from
there. Trust me, it works! 

Repeat: do NOT attempt to *MOUNT* the audio cd...just point
XMMS to the mount directory and it'll take care of the rest!

Basically, you tell it to play from file in /mnt/cdrom (or
wherever you mount your DATA cds) and it'll bring up all
the tracks in the format of: "Track 01.cda" and you select
any or all of those tracks.
