I have used it 3 times and each time it has screwerd my system. The problem is that for some reason once I have run it, I close it and it throws up all these errors resulting in my sound card no longer working for any multimedia application. For example when I try and play a song with xmms I get the following message: Couldn't Open Aduio Please check that: 1. You have the correct output plugin selected 2. No other programs is blocking the soundcard 3. Your soundcard is configured properly Now I know for a fact that xmms works fine on my system, because it has always worked until I ran mplayer for the first time. Each time Ive used mplayer I have had to rebuild my system to get sound back!! Yes I know this is a bit extreme but I couldnt find anywhere that had information about this problem, this is why im mailing this list because there must be a way round this other than rebuilding my system. I would be greatful for any help. - BiZKiT _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
