Gstreamer - problem with mkv playback and jack












0















I use gst123 as my regular audio and video player. I'm now using a Saffire 6 USB interface, which works out of the box using jack so I select jack as audio-output device with the -a option like this: 



gst123 -a jack Music/audio-file.mp3


this is working fine.



But if I try to play a video file in mkv format



gst123 --fullscreen --audio-output jack Music/music-video.mkv


I get the following error:



Error: Failed to create Opus decoder                                                                                                                  

=> file cannot be played and will be removed from playlist


this is no problem when just running gst123 selecting the system-default pulseaudio output by not specifying any output device.

          Entries order in /etc/network/interfaces

          Image
          4 I have a device with two interfaces, eth0 and eth1. One should get its IP from a DHCP server and the other should get its IP statically. If my /etc/network/interfaces file is configured as follows: auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth1 iface eth1 inet dhcp iface eth1 inet6 auto auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 10.10.10.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 Everything works great, eth1 gets its IP from the DHCP server, eth0 sets its IP statically from the information given, but if I try to change the order in the file, such as auto lo iface lo inet loopback auto eth0 iface eth0 inet static address 10.10.10.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 auto eth1 iface eth1 inet dhcp iface eth1 inet6 auto In this case, eth1 fails to get an IP.

          Grub takes very long (several minutes) to open Menu (in Multi-Boot-System)

          Image
          0 I have a Multi-Boot-System with 4 different installations of Linux. (1 Manjaro, 3 Mint) spread over 2 hard drives (2 on each). After doing grub-install /dev/sdX and update-grub several times within each installation ... the Grub-menu needs more and more time to open. It started with a few more seconds, now it takes several minutes. I tried to purge and reinstall Grub but this made the problem even worse: apt-get purge grub grub-pc grub-common apt-get install grub-common grub-pc os-prober update-grub What could be causing this problem? linux grub2 multiboot share | improve this question edited 4 mins ago ...
