<LI> use at least 2.4 if possible, 2.2 isn't tested
|
|
|
|
<LI> if sound clicks when playing from CD-ROM, turn on IRQ unmasking !
|
2001-08-21 21:01:54 +00:00
|
|
|
for example "hdparm -u1 /dev/cdrom" (see "man hdparm" !!!)
|
|
|
|
This is recommended anyways... (for XMMS, etc...)
|

|
|
|
Read section <A HREF="cd-dvd.html#4.1">4.1</A>.
|
|
|
|
<LI> don't use your soundcard by other application ( for ex. XMMS ) !
|
2001-08-22 16:57:49 +00:00
|
|
|
if you use ESD, start MPlayer with the '-vo sdl:esd' option !
|
2001-08-24 18:48:13 +00:00
|
|
|
<LI> Please tell us how MPlayer and your soundcard(s) worked together!
