[MPlayer-users] ice1724: sound ok, picture frozen

[Bram Verweij]

Dear all,

I've recently bought an M-Audio Revolution soundcard. I'm trying to make 
MPlayer use it through the alsa-0.9.2 drivers, without succes. The sound plays
just fine, however, the picture stays frozen at what seems to be the first
frame.  Seeking is possible, but again, after seeking the picture stays frozen.

Everything works fine with my old Soundblaster 128 PCI, or when playing with
-nosound.

Have other people been able to use MPlayer in combination with this card? If so,
is my .asoundrc ok? Other suggestions?

I'm eager to find out,

Bram Verweij

This works flawlessly:

mplayer -ao alsa9:ens1371 ....

This does not:

mplayer -ao alsa9:ice1724 ....

My setup:

RedHat 9

Video card: ATI Rage 128 Pro GL PF (AGP)
Drivers: GATOS ati.2 drivers and drm-kernel from CVS 

Sound cards:
 - Soundblaster 128 PCI (ens1371)
 - Midiman Revolution 7.1 (ice1724)
Both with alsa-0.9.2 drivers.

.asoundrc:

pcm.ens1371 {
   type hw
   card 0
}

ctl.ens1371 {
   type hw
   card 0
}

pcm.ice1724 {
    type plug
    ttable.0.0 1
    ttable.1.1 1
    slave.pcm {
        type hw
        card 1
    }
}

ctl.ice1724 {
    type hw
    card 1
}


Attached also find the output of mplayer -v -ao alsa9:ice1724 smallfile.bin
(sound ok, picture frozen), and of mplayer -v -ao alsa9:ens1371 smallfile.bin
(working properly).
