Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: vlc
I just upgraded my system from 10.04 to 10.10 today, and noticed some problems
playing
a DVD with vlc.
After initially playing audio successfully in some of the initial setup screens
& DVD menu, after starting the
movie the audio output stops and the following output appears in the terminal
where VLC was run:
[0x100ea80] pulse audio output error: Invalid number of channels
I was able to play the movie with audio successfully in gxine, and have not
otherwise noticed any
problem with audio, so I expect the problem is in vlc itself. I did notice
some other non-audio
oddnesses in vlc behavior: it seemed to use an incorrect narrow aspect ration
for all the initial
screens until I started the playback of the movie itself (clicking on 'play' in
the DVD on-screen menu).
(Just in case it helps, the movie was Woddy Allen's 'You Will Meet a Tall Dark
Stranger'.)
I've attached the output from running 'vlc --verbose=2 dvd:// &' and starting
the movie from
the menu screen.
