[Freevo-users] Audio Performance

[Paul Harper]

Hi everyone,

I have an external hard drive on an XP computer which has a shared folder
that is automounted when I boot my media centre PC on Ubuntu. This contains
all of my media files which are referenced through Freevo, its working fine
playing .avi movies using Xine, with fluid playback but playing mp3 files is
another story. Using Mplayer or Xine I can't get through 2-3 minutes of
music without a pause of a second or two in the playback. Most of my mp3
files are 256-320 kbs but I have tried this with 160 kbs files and still get
the same results. I have tried putting the MPLAYER_AUDIO_CACHE_KB up to 5000
from within Freevo but still can't get reliable playback, yet outside of
Freevo without any manipulation of Mplayer settings there is no problem
playing these same files. I can even stream audio over the LAN at 192kbs
using Shoutcast from the Windows PC and play this on Freevo without
skipping. Something similar happened with CD playback - from within Freevo
there were regular pauses and I had to change the Mplayer CD cache settings
to 4096 - this seems to work but makes for huge pauses in random play or
when skipping to another track as the cache is filled. Is there any reason
for this discrepancy in performance and any way I can circumvent these
problems from within Freevo?

Thanks.

[Freevo-users] Different languages .srt files

[ACME Corp]

Does anybody knows if there is any name convention to save diferent language 
.srt files?
I mean something like:
mymovie.avi
mymovie.EN.srt
mymovie.FR.srt
mymovie.ES.srt

I'm using Xine and it seems to be able to swith between diferent subtitles, but 
I dont know how to do it.

Thanks everybody.

I know the feeling, my only involvement with freevo at he moment is the 
odd catch up with the mailing lists but someday soon I'll find some time 
again :)
