           Summary: Hissing and poping on playback under heavy CPU load
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: HEAD CVS
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: don't know
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-maint at bugzilla.gnome.org
        ReportedBy: nesscg at mcmaster.ca
         QAContact: gstreamer-maint at bugzilla.gnome.org


Play a vorbis or mp3 media in Rhythembox.

I'm not sure if it is the core/plugin/sound card but xmms does not have any
problems playing the files under heavy load.

I was using the FreshRPMS.net packages but they were old so I compiled from
source to try and see if this would solve the problem, but it did not.

The "hissing and popping" really sounds like I connected my analog sound
speakers to my digital output.  You know that fuzz sound.


My System Info:
Intel i810 soundcard (onboard Toshiba Laptop)
2.6.4 kernel.org source compile
