ZZ Top Eliminator is playing all distorted through Rhythmbox, when other CD's play fine. Thought this may be due to DRM, but I think not now. Richard

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

At first, I thought there was a Codec problem and installed the extra WAV Codec libs, but all was the same.

Since then, I have reinstalled Rhythmbox and played another CD and that was fine. When I went back to the ZZ Top / Eliminator CD, it was distorted, as though it was overdriven in a valve (Tube) amp. This is clipping I guess.

I have it playing on my stero now just fine, but not on Ubuntu 9.1 with Rhythmbox 0.12.5. This is a new install on a Acer Revo R3600 - both the digital (hdmi) and analogue outputs are the same.

Regards,
Richard
