SDL might be your best bet to try first, you can enable this at start by "vlc -I sdl" or at run time by Settings -> Preferences -> Audio -> (at the bottom check Advanced options) -> Audio out module -> Simple DirectMedia Layer audio then click Save. If that doesn't work try "vlc --oss-buggy" or "vlc --no-oss-buggy" Hope this helps, Michael --Apple-Mail-1-323020632 content-type: application/pgp-signature; x-mac-type=70674453; name=PGP.sig content-description: This is a digitally signed message part content-disposition: inline; filename=PGP.sig content-transfer-encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (Darwin) iD8DBQFBoHz0n4uqfTwEb9YRAnFTAKCo/gFyZNaerUzQVvZbwzouH9jtHQCfTjRZ i6qHiAxWQ6NMn6wYYQszz+g= =uIPH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Apple-Mail-1-323020632--
