Public bug reported:
Version currently installed: gst-plugins-ugly0.10 (0.10.19-2ubuntu5)
Affected Distro/System:
The bug occures on all systems i've tested: Kubuntu 14.04.1 x64/openSuse
13.1/Debian 7 with diffrent Hardware (intel, amd, onboard audio and high end
dedicated audiocard). So it should be a software bug. Bug is many years old, i
can remember since ubuntu 8.04.
How to reproduce:
1. Open an audiplayer like gmusicplayer, exaile, vlc, amarok, clementine etc.
and play an mp3-musicfile (CBR/VBR or bitrate doesnt matter).
2. Now, during playback, use your mouse to jump to a diffrent position inside
the mp3-file and repeat this action several times.
You now should often notice a short "Hicks" when jumping. It seems that
there is an 0.1-0.2 sec. long overlapping between music played at the
moment and music at the point you jump to (puffer problem). There is a
recorded ogg-file as attached to this report, where you can hear the
"hickses".
Further facts:
- This happens only with mp3-files (flac,wmv, oga,wave -> no problem)
- When i use an audioplayer with wine, all works fine
Workaround:
Installation of jack-soundserver and an increase of latency fix the problem
