[Hardy] Sound disappears in VLC when seeking

[Moritz Kammerer]

Binary package hint: vlc

When seeking in the video (or pause it) in VLC, the sound will vanish.
100% reproducable with all sound ouput plugins (ALSA, Jack, ESD, Pulse, OSS).

Description: Ubuntu hardy (development branch)
Release: 8.04
VLC Version: 0.8.6.release.e+x264svn20071224+faad2.6.1-0ubuntu2

What type of Video are you using? I cannot reproduce this bug with a .mov file.

This is a self-authored DVD from a capture of a tv card. On some of my DVDs seeking can be done without loss of audio, on others the audio vanishes. This seems to be a problem of VLC (or my DVDs??) because i can reproduce the same behaviour on windows. Strange problem, because totem has no problems with seeking. Media Player Classic can play the DVD without problems, too.
It is an MPEG-2 file in a vob container (DVD standard) 704x576 with 96 kibps AC3 sound. I've attached the output from DGIndex.

The user in this thread (http://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=41172) has the same problem.

Hi, you reported this bug a while ago, is this issue still present in an updated version of vlc?

New version of VLC works.

Ok, this issue seems to have been fixed elsewhere. Closing. If this issue comes back, please reopen the bug by setting the status back to "new", or submit a new bug report.

Thanks.
