Hi,
I am having some issues with CentOS 5.
-XMMS stops playing MP3s without apparent reason. I leave it playing
some album and it will just stop whenever it feels like it. It will go
into "pause" and just stay there. Pressing on the pause button to
resume does nothing at all. I thought it could be some newly encoded
songs, but it does the same for a song that I have played 100% times.
-K3B takes 1:40 to create a DVD. Initially I thought it could be
because I was writing a DVD with 2GB files on and UDF extensions, but
creating the image first and then burning that takes exactly as long.
I am running a clean install of CentOS 5 i386 on a Dell Inspiron 6400
(Core Due, 1GB RAM) with SELinux on "enforcing". None of these issues
happen on the same machine running kubuntu 6.10.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks
Gabriel

Myself currently am using VLC (from rpmforge) and RealPlayer for playing DVDs and various media files and had no problems so far. However I am still checking CentOS 5. Also Noatun (http://noatun.kde.org) that comes with CentOS 5.0 KDE may also be a viable option.> -K3B takes 1:40 to create a DVD.

In fact it goes faster than in my previous SL 4.x installation.

Does it play dvd's back at regular/expected speed or are they choppy. It could very well be that if you're using the ata_piix module for the drive, that you have to add some options to get it to perform properly. I had to do this on my dell 9300 laptop under c5, but afterwards things move pretty smoothly. Burning the c5 dvd takes about 2 minutes. -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act. George Orwell
