bad sound on some movies - gentoo

[elemay]

Hi,

some movies are sounding like being under water, some sounding like a horde of crickets flying around.

What i have found out, movies with vorbis audio codec seem to have this problem.

What could i do to eliminate this behaviour??

Hi,

i just tried the following.

i installed ubuntu in a vm installed happy-neko ps3mediaserver and copied the precompiled mplayer, mencoder etc binaries to my home dir.

i configured PMS.conf to point to this precompiled binaries and all is working fine.

what USE flags do i have to use to compile the binaries on gentoo the right way?

thanks in advance.

or you can grab precompiled binarieas archive from this topic viewtopic.php?f=3&t=14605

I don't know about USE flags and generally suggest against depending on system-provided packages/patches/sources to avoid countless problems (on example is in the OP).
You can find scripts I use to compile mencoder/ffmpeg here https://github.com/ps3mediaserver/ps3me ... .0/contrib
