No sound from gxine or Totem movie players.

Asked by Mike Cummings

no sound from gxine or totem movie players. Sound card ( on board C-Media CM19739) properly detected. Sound from all ather sources ( XMMS, Flash Player, Rythymbox) works fine. Tried several configurations in gxine preferences to no avail.

Running Ubuntu Dapper on ECS N-Force 2 board w/ AMD XP2500+. 2.6.15.25-386 kernel. Alsa installed and module loaded. Any Suggestions?

Most likely you lack some audio codecs needed for playing audio.

You may lack file called divxa32.acm in somewhere /usr/lib/codecs/ etc. Get it and try again. Does gxine tells any error messages when started at console? And to avoid possible file access rights problems try starting gxine also using sudo.

Can you help with this problem?
