Description Roger Larsson 2008-03-26 02:51:35 UTC

Version:           0.5.9 (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Got a report directly from an user.
But at that time I had no working sound at all in my KDE4 installation.
When I updated it tonight, sound begun to work - somewhat...

Longer words like the Swedish for sun glasses (solglasögon) are clipped very short.
Note: they are not clipped the same every time!

Is it something that turns off the playback?
Direktly - by stopping it due to a GUI event.
or indirectly - deleting some container the play object belongs in.

Are the sounds in wav files? Can you try using ogg?
oggenc foo.wav will give you a foo.ogg
It seems phonon-xine has problems with wav files in general and with short wav files in particular

Comment 2 Roger Larsson 2008-04-08 00:44:14 UTC

Have you noticed other KDE4 programs with this problem?
(I have looked at the ktuberling code and it looks according to examples, so
I do also suspect phonon-xine)

Comment 3 Albert Astals Cid 2008-04-08 20:13:33 UTC

Yes dragonplayer has the same problems with the english, have you tried moving swedish files to ogg? I'm moving english ones in a moment

Comment 4 Roger Larsson 2008-04-08 20:38:09 UTC

Two different programs having problems => not a ktuberling problem.
Recoding files in ogg is only a work around and does not solve the problem.
Reassigning.

Same problem here. Restricted to the phonon-xine backend only, the gstreamer one works properly. KDE 4.1.2

Comment 6 Matthias Kretz 2009-01-04 16:44:33 UTC

Sorry that I didn't notice this one before - a better summary would have helped. Should be fixed in trunk now - see the other report.
