Howdy,
I have been experiencing annoying brief skips, like on a bumped CD player, with my media players. Replaying the same song or same part of the song does not have the skips, so I don’t think it’s the files’ fault.
Had the same problem in Elisa and VLC. I don’t watch much local video, but streaming audio and video doesn’t have this problem for me.
Watching the system monitor I see I have 10 Gb of free memory and only 5-10% CPU utilization.
System is Debian 12 with KDE and Xwindows. (Wayland doesn’t like my Nvidia 1070)
Any suggestion for how to troubleshoot would be appreciated. I tried downloading more memory but that didn’t help!
im not too familiar with debian, so its hard to say. could be any number of issues: the type of encoding your media is in, the media player, the kernel, drivers.
That’s not too encouraging, I’ve got to say!
Thank you.
Try a different player. elisa is built on top of vlc’s codec library. see if the problem goes away. if the file’s format is rare i’d try to convert it to a new format and see if the problem is resolved.
I shall try!
They’re just MP3s, but I wouldn’t know what kind.
those should be pretty well optimized at this point. that leaves basically the drivers if you have issues on a different player. do you have issues with audio on say youtube?
Not that I have noticed. I do watch music videos, so I think I would have heard it.
Well thats good! Pointing towards vlc specific issues ;)
