[MPlayer-users] [BUG] -srate is (still) broken

[Giacomo Comes]

Hi everybody,
I have reported this bug more than one month ago, but there were no reaction.
So I'm reporting it again.

With MPlayer1.0pre4 and latest CVS there is a bug
that shows up using the -srate option.
For example take a video with 8000 Hz sound and play it with:
	mplayer video -srate 44100  
the audio will be terribly distorted, but with 
	mplayer video -af resample=44100
it works fine. 
With mplayer is possible to circumvent the bug as showed,
but the trick does not work with mencoder!!!
MPlayer1.0pre3 didn't have the problem.

The bug doesn't concern only 8000 Hz sound played at 44100 Hz, it shows up
also if you play a 48000 Hz audio at 44100 Hz or viceversa but it's more 
difficult to ear it.
If requested I can provide a small video with 8000 Hz audio.

Cheers

Giacomo
