Audio problem

[interestingfool]

Hello,

Ever since upgrading to VLC 2.0.1 I've had a problem with certain kinds of music as the track starts. I listen to lots of classical music, and when there is a piano in the track (this is the only common denominator I've found) then there is no sound when the track starts. I have to seek to a random place in the track to get sound (and then re-seek to the beginning of the track). This doesn't happen for any other music or media player, nor did it happen before I upgraded to VLC 2.0.1. It doesn't matter if the I have just opened VLC, or if the track is in the middle of a playlist, it always happens with certain music.

edit: these are all flac files

Does Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) complain something when the track starts?

[interestingfool]

yes, it says "main warning: received buffer in the future". however, the message keeps popping up (hundreds of times), until I seek somewhere to get audio

[VLC_help]

Can you share us one of those FLAC files?

[interestingfool]

OK, how do I do that?

Upload a short sample of a problematic file to either http://streams.videolan.org/upload/ or to MirrorCreator.com or to EmbedUpload.com, so it will upload the file for you to several other hosts, and then post the link to the file here.

ok here it is: http://www.mirrorcreator.com/files/1WYX ... .ape_links

hmm I just realized that it is an .ape file... does that change anything?

Are all of those .ape files?

[Lotesdelere]

Yes, there is still a problem with some APE files:

Yours is making the time counter to jump using 6 seconds steps and no sound is heard while it's playing fine with FFplay.

However I personally experience no problems at all with any FLAC files.
