I just set up a new machine with 5.2.1-RELEASE, and installed the latest xmms and mplayer from ports. Problem is that when changing tracks in the playlist or seeking through tracks in both xmms and mplayer the sound lags half a second. This also happens when I press stop, the display in xmms says it's stopped but the audio keeps going for a second. The machine has an AOpen AK77 motherboard, AMD AthlonXP barton 2500+ (1.83GHz) and 1GB DDR ram, with a Sound Blaster Live card. I never had this problem on my old machine running 5.1-REL or the one before that with 4.6-STABLE, all had the same sound card. If I recall correctly I also have this problem on my laptop with 5.2-REL What can be causing this? Are there any audio buffers I can make smaller or something? When I press the pause button in xmms the audio stops instantly. Baldur
