It is much faster, and creates better quality mpegs. I use 'lame -V 1 -b 128 -h -m j -q1 infile.wav outfile.mp3' Which is fairly slow, if you stick to CBR (vs VBR) and turn off HQ mode you should be able to make it go substantially faster though. If you are running -current you can do dd if=/dev/acd0t1 bs=2352 | lame -r -x -V 1 -b 128 -h -m j -q1 - track_01.mp3 Which is pretty neat ;) --- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Mon Feb 12 0:15:49 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from nets5.rz.rwth-aachen.de (nets5.rz.RWTH-Aachen.DE [137.226.144.13]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C2B3137B401 for ; Mon, 12 Feb 2001 00:15:46 -0800 (PST) Received: from hyperion.informatik.rwth-aachen.de (hyperion.Informatik.RWTH-Aachen.DE [137.226.112.212]) by nets5.rz.rwth-aachen.de (8.10.1/8.10.1/6) with ESMTP id f1C8FjL15139 for ; Mon, 12 Feb 2001 09:15:45 +0100 (MET) Received: from agamemnon.informatik.rwth-aachen.de (agamemnon.Informatik.RWTH-Aachen.DE [137.226.194.74]) by hyperion.informatik.rwth-aachen.de (8.9.1b+Sun/8.9.1/2) with ESMTP id JAA16377 for ; Mon, 12 Feb 2001 09:14:02 +0100 (MET) Received: (from stolz@localhost) by agamemnon.informatik.rwth-aachen.de (8.9.1b+Sun/8.9.1-gb-2) id JAA11337 for freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org; Mon, 12 Feb 2001 09:15:44 +0100 (MET) Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2001 09:15:43 +0100 From: Volker Stolz To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Subject: =?iso-8859-1?Q?SBLive_won=B4t_sample=3F?= Message-ID: <20010212091543.A11291@agamemnon.informatik.rwth-aachen.de> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i Organization: Chair for CS II 1/2, Anomalous Programming Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi, I own a WinTV-tuner card and a SBLive!.

I recently upgraded from a Celeron 300A/440BX to an Athlon 800/VIA 82C686A. My ES1370 sound card worked fine with the Celeron, but does not work well at all in the Athlon system; it crackles a bit under light system load, and makes horrible slowed-down grinding noises if the CPU is very busy. The VIA board comes with an on-board AC97 code, which I tried, but turned off because it didn't seem to support any useful sample frequencies and was very noisy. I've seen a few posts from people having similar problems. I don't think I have any interrupt conflicts, at least not between simultaneously active devices. I've juggled the box's cards and BIOS settings quite a bit, but haven't been able to get better performance. Is this a problem with the VIA chipset support? Dmesg enclosed below.

If not, let me know. Also, let me put in a plug for Jonathan Belson here. Jonathan's been mulling over the idea of writing a KDE TV app for FreeBSD, pulling Fxtv code bits where it makes sense. If he has time, this'd be awesome (with today's GUI choices, Xaw really sucks).

Which audio programs exactly are you using? I was having problems recently with MP3 playback, and thought at first that it was a problem with the pcm driver. As it turned out, there's a problem with esound (I was using an mpg123 built with esound support). Try using a simple wave file player, like "play" or "waveplay", and see if you still notice the same problems. If not, then your MP3 player is probably linked with esound, which is the real culprit. -- Conrad Sabatier cjsabatier@home.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Mon Feb 12 19:46:23 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from cx344940-a.meta1.la.home.com (cx344940-a.meta1.la.home.com [24.6.21.74]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D363337B491; Mon, 12 Feb 2001 19:46:15 -0800 (PST) Received: (from cjsabatier@localhost) by cx344940-a.meta1.la.home.com (8.11.2/8.11.2) id f1D1Hfv84601; Mon, 12 Feb 2001 19:17:41 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from cjsabatier) Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.4.0 on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: <003f01c08d12$657a5e60$0504020a@haveblue> Date: Mon, 12 Feb 2001 19:17:41 -0600 (CST) Organization: @Home Network From: Conrad Sabatier To: Cameron Grant Subject: Re: 4.2R pcm/sbc AWE records noise, not audio: 16 bit bug?; gus Cc: multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG, questions@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org On 02-Feb-01 Cameron Grant wrote: [snip] > to be quite honest, i've done very little but sound stuff for the last > decade, and attitudes like yours only contribute to my feelings of > dissatisfaction with it. i feel honour-boud to finish what i started, and > probably will, but you should remember that i'm not being paid for this, so > i don't feel that you are in a position to make statements like those. do > feel free to take the torch, i've been wanting to pass it on for a while > now. Cameron, I've been interested for a long time in contributing in some way to audio driver development. I'm a musician, and so, of course, this is an area very near and dear to my heart -- especially MIDI, which we're unfortunately still lacking at this time -- but I have to admit, I'm clueless as to where to begin. I have *zero* experience writing device drivers, although I consider myself a fairly competent C coder (i.e., provided the problem I'm dealing with is something I understand), and have dealt with low-level systems programming in other environments before. Any advice on how one might go about learning the ins and outs of device driver development for FreeBSD? I do have "The Design and Implementation of 4.4 BSD", BTW, as well as "Advanced Programming in the Unix Environment". Any other tips would be much appreciated. -- Conrad Sabatier cjsabatier@home.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Mon Feb 12 19:50:55 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from cain.gsoft.com.au (genesi.lnk.telstra.net [139.130.136.161]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 439D237B491 for ; Mon, 12 Feb 2001 19:50:51 -0800 (PST) Received: from cain.gsoft.com.au (doconnor@cain [203.38.152.97]) by cain.gsoft.com.au (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id OAA04282; Tue, 13 Feb 2001 14:19:49 +1030 (CST) (envelope-from doconnor@gsoft.com.au) Message-ID: X-Mailer: XFMail 1.4.0 on FreeBSD X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MIME-Version: 1.0 In-Reply-To: Date: Tue, 13 Feb 2001 14:19:49 +1030 (CST) From: "Daniel O'Connor" To: Conrad Sabatier Subject: Re: pcm (ES1370) crackling on Athlon, 4.2-STABLE Cc: Nicholas Esborn , freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG, Nicholas Esborn Sender: owner-freebsd-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org On 13-Feb-01 Conrad Sabatier wrote: > > The audio was worse when I played through esound...

Well, if you have a soundcard with a hardware mixer, you can do it no problem (I think the FreeBSD drivers support multiple dsp devices for cards with hardware mixers, but I'm not sure. If they don't, you can use the OSS drivers (for a price.)) If not, I think you can use esound anyway, I don't think it requires X to be running.

Most everything works, including I finally got Xwindows to run after tweaking about 19 different settings, however I have as yet had no luck with the built-in ESS sound. I have built several kernels, finally resorting to using a kernel with userconfig, intro_userconfig, and visual_userconfig defined to I could verify the presence of the pcm driver, which according to HARDWARE.TXT /should/ support the ESS 1878 which is what this laptop claims to have. Userconfig does show the pcm driver in memory, but that's it. there is no "pcm0:" line while booting, (or in dmesg afterwards, either). The only clue I can come up with is the following lines from dmesg: Copyright (c) 1992-2001 The FreeBSD Project.

My first thought was a pci-isa bridge, but it seems to be finding that OK, or at least, otherwise working it OK. Is it possible that the ESS is really an "ESS compatible" sound card built into the Intel chipset, and that's why it isn't finding it ( i guess in that case I could add the appropriate ID string to the appropriate place in the pcm files, and it might work?) have I asked enough questions yet for one email? <(}: At least they are all related to the same issue.

My best guess is that > the ESS chip is somehow "hiding" behind this chip, and since nothing is > loading for it, pcm never has a chance to see it. well, not having looked at the code, i am going to guess that chip1, 8086 and 1234 are placeholder values that some diligent dev added to their code so that the system wouldnt crash if the probe failed to get started ( with 'starting' coming before 'failing', u would be making progess if you could get it to fail :-) ) my first guess wouold be to toggle the Plug and Play OS settings in the BIOS (meaning that whatever it sez now, make it the other value, yes, no, true, false, etc ) you might also try running 'pnpinfo' but i'll bet it dumps core....or at least fails immediately with words to the effect of 'PnP not intitialized...exiting' oh, and the other thing to check, is the soundcard support even tunred on in the bios, usually bios's have an option to turn onboard sound off. have you heard the sound work in windows? the other thing to do is to go into the bios and manually assign the dma and interrupt for the sound parts. but i wouldnt do that until i tried to sort out the pnp stuff. u might also visit the manufacurers website and see if there is a bios update. best of luck To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-multimedia Wed Feb 14 8:16:33 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Received: from hindenburg.eboai.org (hindenburg.eboai.org [206.183.134.245]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 398AC37B491 for ; Wed, 14 Feb 2001 08:16:32 -0800 (PST) Received: by hindenburg.eboai.org (Postfix, from userid 1000) id 32E9F5E2D4; Wed, 14 Feb 2001 11:16:31 -0500 (EST) Date: Wed, 14 Feb 2001 11:16:31 -0500 From: Chip Marshall To: Heiko Recktenwald Cc: multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: Soundserver without X ?

Running 4.2 Stable as of yesterday. First compiled X402 via ports. Then compiled cvs Glide3 but I noticed a warning near the end of the compile. "*** Warning: This library needs some functionality provided by -lXxf86dga." "*** Warning: This library needs some functionality provided by -lXxf86vm." A `ldconfig -r` showed that I indeed didn't have Xxf86dga and Xxf86vm as shared libraries. Went ahead and compiled X again with the proper modifications to xf86site.def. #define HasGlide3 YES #define Glide3IncDir /usr/local/include/glide3" The X compile complained about not being able to find -lglide3. ldconfig showed that I had -lglide3.13. Changed the appropriate makefile but no success. Glide3 probably needed the libraries from the above warnings. Anybody have any ideas?

This is a problem with the duplex probing with VAT under newpcm, your card is being mis-detected as half-duplex.

Which is part of why I don't think that is necessarily directly > related to the multimedia issue. hmm, i still think that solving the audio problem is gated by solving the pnp problem. but you are free make your own evaluation. so you are supposed to have something that gets recognized as a North Bridge, SouthBridge and PCI to ISA bridge if your pci to isa bridge is not getting found, then that woudl explain your problem, *assuming* that the audio chipset is a PnPISA chipset, which i'll wager it is. so i am going to hazard a guess that this is the problem. the solution would be to go look at the bios again and see if there is anything to fiddle with along the lines of ISA compatibility. If nothing stands out directly, try assigning at least on IRQ (maybe the expected one for the chipset) to 'Legacy ISA' and see if that helps. if bios fiddlement doesnt help then u probably have to write a driver for that bridge chip. > And I also tried shuffling around IRQs to a couple of different > unused values....maybe I should try a used value and see if it breaks > something.... > > > have you heard the sound work in windows? > > > it had windows when I first got it, and now I cant remember if it palyed > sounds or not.
