passthrough audio in vlc-0.9.1

[bjlockie]

I had 0.8.6f (some old version) but it stopped working (probably a QT upgrade).
I upgraded to the latest source one (and also tried the Gentoo build which is the same version but maybe an older snapshot).
The video is really slow and not working right but what was obvious was my lack of sound.
I thought I had an audio passthrough option for output that is gone in this version.
I used direct audio passed to the motherboard and the SPDIF to my receiver (bypassing audio software).

Please try with the upcoming (in a 8 hours) 0.9.2 release and file a bug report on http://trac.videolan.org/vlc if it still doesn't work.

Thanks,

I compiled vlc-0.9.2 from source (I have to).
There is no sound except sometimes I hear something if I move the playback slider.
I am guessing something is logging debug information that bogs down my machine.
I have an AMD64 5000+ though with 4GB of ram.

I do get an error from the "Tools/Extended Settings".
It says "No v4l2 instance found".

The link to trac just redirects back to the home page.

I get tons of these:
[00000453] main audio output warning: PTS is out of range (2605435), dropping buffer
when I run it from a command line.

you might want to talk to "thedj" on our IRC channel. He found the issue and might have a work around. (Something due to the volume normalizer being default enabled I think)

Btw, how is the v4l2 thing related to your issue?!?
