wine users - Aug 2011 - Native mp3 playback winemp3.acm/l3codeca.acm regression?

Two issues.

1. Probable regression in Wine v1.2.2 and 1.2.3 (v 1.2 ok):
- ACM / native WMP playback not working.
Tried to upgrade to 1.2.3, then 1.2.2 and they both cause the player (1by1) to
hang, nothing written to console.
Revert back to v1.2 and acm works fine again.

2. Bug in Wine v1.3.x:
 - ACM / native WMP playback (using libmpg123) elapsed track time advances too
quickly (nearly two seconds elapse per one second of real mp3 playback).

For both issues have tried both ALSA and OSS sound drivers via winecfg, Tried
wiping ~/.wine.

Have mpg123 v1.13.3 installed at /usr/lib, where wine expects it.

My l3codeca.acm is from XP sp3. size 290816, md5sum
452705ac9e4c0dde91a61f0e02292423
as per "6.11.4. MP3s do not play in Windows Media Player or applications
that depend on it" at

Thanks for a really useful app!

Not working with native overrides is not a Wine bug. That workaround you are
using is for a broken Wine install (lacks libmpg123 and/or winemp3.acm). The
real solution is to fix your Wine install. If your distro doesn't provide
winemp3.acm in their packages, build it yourself.
