thanks for the report, does it works fine with totem-xine?

Does the self-made have sound when played on other systems? Have you tried playing it from different media? (i mean was the original on hard-drive and did that have sound?) Is it possible to play your dvd through a dvd player that's not a computer one?

Good luck and happy hunting :)

[Tom (tom6)]

Errr, there are a lot of volume settings. Maybe one of the ones that affects recording was somehow set low or wrong (default settings can be wrong) or maybe its a volume control that somehow is used in playing back your dvd. Do other movies that aren't self-made play with sound?

[albimari (kkfam)]

Hi, another error issued wit another home made DVD: here you are

" DBus error
org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes
include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security
policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection
was broken. "

Can you help me please? I don't know its meaning.
Thanks in
advance.
Alberto mari.

Oh dear, sorry to hear that. I haven't got a clue how to help and haven't tried this sort of thing myself. I'd try hunting around in Synaptics Package Manager for a better tool for doing this. Have you tried hunting upstream at Bugzilla? Google searches are sometimes good too. Good luck in hunting for an answer to this.

[Nicolò Chieffo (yelo3)]

I might be on the same situation as you.
I'm running Jaunty, and my selfmade dvd does not have audio *only* if opened as a dvd. If I instead open the .VOB file, audio works.

[Nicolò Chieffo (yelo3)]

So the problem might be libdvdread, adding it

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

does it working using totem-xine?

[Nicolò Chieffo (yelo3)]

Yes, it works.

In xine the audio is recognized as:
codec: Linear PCM
channels: 0
sample rate: 48000 Hz
bitrate: 1536 kbps

in gstreamer the audio is recognized as:
codec: N/A
channels: Stereo
sample rate: 48000 Hz
bitrate: N/A

I'm attaching the output of totme-xine and totem-gstreamer

[albimari (kkfam)]

Sorry I forgot this problem.
I use now openSuse 11.1 (gnome) and I find it
very stable.
 Thanks for your attention.
Alberto.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

closing since the submitter doesn't use ubuntu now, users having similar issues should open a new bug on GNOME rather if they want

[Nicolò Chieffo (yelo3)]

There's also me, I also have this problem and I still use ubuntu. This
is an ubuntu only problem, so I can't understand what can upstream
do...

[Nicolò Chieffo (yelo3)]

only gstreamer problem

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

how is that an ubuntu only issue?

[Nicolò Chieffo (yelo3)]

Fedora and OpenSuse are ok, so I assumed it an ubuntu only issue.
Maybe a patch...

[Alexander Hunziker (alex-hunziker)]

That's a known bug in resindvd - linking to the upstream bug.

[Martin Mai (mrkanister-deactivatedaccount-deactivatedaccount)]

This is fixed upstream in gst-plugins-bad 0.10.16.

[Martin Mai (mrkanister-deactivatedaccount-deactivatedaccount)]

This should be fixed in Ubuntu 10.04. Thanks for reporting.
