GUS PnP:

ALSA : see Aureal Vortex2
Max kHz : 48
SB Live!:
OSS : OK
ALSA : (?)

Gravis UltraSound ACE:

ALSA : if video lags, use OSS
Max kHz : 48
Gravis UltraSound MAX:

ALSA : OK (?)
Max kHz : 48
ESS 688 and probably all old SB's (without buffers):

ALSA : OK
Max kHz : 44.1
PC Speaker or DAC:
OSS : only with the new HQ timing code
(maybe won't work at all in the future)

Max kHz : 6 ;) (the driver emulates 44.1 maybe more)

- MPlayer is mostly intended for OSS
- use at least 2.4 if possible, 2.2 isn't tested
- In case of any problems, first try recompiling with
./configure --disable-select , then make distclean ; make .
Your soundcard may not support querying of its buffer.
- if sound clicks when playing from CD-ROM, turn on IRQ unmasking !
for example "hdparm -u1 /dev/cdrom" (see "man hdparm" !!!)
This is recommended anyways... (for XMMS, etc...)
- don't use your soundcard by other application ( for ex. XMMS ) !
if you use ESD, start MPlayer with the esddsp utility !
- Please tell us how MPlayer and your soundcard(s) worked together!
