1. My evil "pause/unpause" audio breakage is back... I'm pretty sure it's probably always been broken but I just happened to notice it last night while watching a movie with a DTS-MA soundtrack. Pause/unpause of the video resulted in horrible audio distortion, If I stop playback and then resume from the same point in the video everything is fine. Is there anything additional that would help such as a pastebin log for seeing what is going on when this happens? It's like XBMC never gets back in sync with the audio.


Thx.

Just thought i would let you know that im having the same problem and it is when i pause for longer periods

Unfortunately no, and you would get a pop-up (or at least some debug entries) about the audio device not being available Sad

Ah, sounds like I have a different problem then.

Thanks for verifying! What model AVR do you have?

Same here, also only when paused for a longer period.

I have a Sony DA2400ES and it seems to happen on both HD and non-HD audio. Stopping and resuming from the same position gets around the problem.

This is indicative of the bug I mentioned earlier - should affect all content not just HD. The patch by CrystalP should address this once it gets pulled into mainline, which I expect will be within the next few weeks.

It's possible because I use the same patches on my HTPC, and I don't have this issue on my Onkyo...

OK, thanks, I'm sure you are right. Just for grins I will probably test with DTS and DD material again just to see if I can reproduce the issue with a non HD track.

So, are you thinking that you are going to do a bon voyage build with Daniela's patch once Eden goes release final? I hear a lot of talk about the HD audio branch getting merged in, but I'm a bit nervous about having to go to nighties just to get HD audio moving forward.

Mine's an RXV1800, so that's interesting.

Awesome, I'm sure if you didn't have women throwing their underwear at you for being such a rock star you would be less likely to do so! Rofl
