I switched to xbmc-xvba-testing last week. Since a few days, I have a little audio bug (which wasn't present directly after switching to testing).
Some Videos have audio distortions that were not present previously. Also, when playing the same video over and over again, the distortions happen at different times.
The frequency of the distortions increases with "complexity" of the file (Full-HD mkv files have distrotions every 20-30 seconds, plain SD avi files barely show any).
Depending on the Audio output settings, the distortions either take the form of a total dropout of the audio (when AC3, DTS and AAC are enabled and the Audio output is Optical/Coax or HDMI). They take the form of awkward and extremely loud noise (with the original audio still audible in the background, but somewhat distorted) when these options are disabled (or the Audio output is Analog).
Performing any playback action (pause & play or switch audio tracks) immediately restores the audio back to normal.
Also, after playing around with the options mentioned above, the bug occurs more frequently (and also in "low-complexity"-files) until I reboot.
When playing music, the audio works perfect.
You can find my /home/xbmc/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log here: http://de.pastebin.ca/2201741
The actions performed were: Startup - play music - play high-complexity video file - wait for distortion to appear several times - play music again.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Carsten
