| Summary | 0000602: Sound distorted with FS2 cutscenes, not with FS1 | ||||
| Description | I've installed fs2_open on my Linux 2.6.13.2 Slackware 10.2 system and I've been playing through the FreeSpace 1 campaign (from the FSPort project) without much problems. The cutscene movies played just fine. However, when playing the FS2 cutscenes with fs2_open the sound is distorted. Strange, because I think they are stored in the same MVE format. Apparently AVI support isn't working in the *nix version of fs2_open, because I've tried placing the AVI's in the same folder but then they won't play. | ||||

Related to http://lore.maxgaming.net/~scp/mantis/bug_view_advanced_page.php?bug_id=0000601, which says "MVE won't work, period." The port probably included AVI, and IIRC, with loading order, MVE >AVI, so you need to move the MVE before the AVI will work. And you _might_ need a special tbl too, but I haven't tried that in some time. I'm not too sure on the sound thing, I'm not a *nix user, but IIRC there was something about using CVS OpenAL, because it might be too new. |
|

Hmm, about the AVI stuff. I've moved the MVE files out of the FreeSpace 2 directory (moved them to my home dir) and left the AVI's there, but then it won't play any movies. So I don't think it has anything to do with the loading order. You are referring to the CVS version, but I'm not using the CVS version, I'm using the 3.6.7 version. |

MVE is all that works in the Linux version. AVI support won't hit until late November. As far as the sound goes, it's a known issue with the FS1 movies and OpenAL. Not really a decoder problem (if it's the same problem). Usually you can get it to work by adding "SoundSampleRate=44100" to the [General] section of ~/.fs2_open/fs2_open.ini. See if that helps. If not report back and I'll have a quick look at the code. I never play-tested FS1 movies in the FS2_Open version of the MVE player so this could be a bug that slipped through. |

The problem isn't with the FS1 movies, its with the FS2 movies. The FS1 movies play fine, including sound. I tried it anyway though, but it didn't change anything. The FS1 movies still play fine, the FS2 ones don't. I've rebuild the 3.6.7 version with debugging and attached the log file I got. |
|
|
Appears that I'm quite a bit off my game today. :) I read it right but still wrote it wrong. It is the FS2 movies which have the known audio problem, they use a higher frequency (44100) than the FS1 movies and if OpenAL isn't set to at least match it then there will be a static distortion in the audio playback. I assumed that's the problem you had but if forcing the sample rate didn't fix it then it must be something else. I did test the FS2 movies and they worked fine so I don't think there is a general problem here but something is obviously wrong. I don't see anything abnormal in the debug log either. Is the distortion that you are getting just some static? If you have an ~/.openalrc please post it's contents. |
|
|
Hmm, I see. Anyway, I had a look at my ~/.openalrc and it has the following: (define speaker-num 2) (define devices '(alsa)) (define alsa-out-device dmixer) However, it doesn't seem to be using ALSA at all, because if I have amaroK playing and start FS2_Open it says that /dev/[sound/]dsp is in use, so I'm not sure if the file is actually used. Just to be sure, here's my ~/.fs2_open/fs2_open.ini: [General] SoundSampleRate=44100 [Default] VideocardFs2open=OGL -(1024x768)x16 bit LastPlayer=Commando JS [PXO] FS2OpenPXO=1 Login=Taz Password=***** SquadName= |
|
|
""SoundSampleRate=44100" to the [General]" See, I'm not having a very good day so far. ;) s/General/Default/ Told you the wrong section to put the option to force the sample rate in which is probably why it didn't work. Move it to [Default] and try it again. I'm going to actually make 44100 the init default if not specified in the new code. Hopefully that's all it is for your problem though. If it still doesn't work let me know. |
|
|
Yes, that fixed the problem. Sound is fine now. Thanks for fixing this, now I can finally play FreeSpace 2 the way it is meant to be played :). I was wondering though if there's any documentation on the options in that ini file, because I couldn't find any on the Wiki. |
|
|
Cool. I'll make it the default when the MVE player goes more public. The FS1 movies use 22050 Hz which is what what OpenAL will default to using. That's fine for FS1 but it's half of what's needed for the FS2 movies to play properly. That little tidbit of info took a bit too long for me the figure out the first time I experienced the audio static. :) As far as docs on the ini options go, there aren't any. The format and options in the ini file are going to change in the coming months and then there will really be something to document since most of the current cmdline options will move to the ini file instead. But other than that sound option there really isn't anything else that doesn't get created automatically. There are some things for speech, which doesn't work under Linux yet, and a couple of OpenGL options, but those are Windows only since Windows can't figure out the simple stuff and needs it's hand held sometimes. |
|
|
Not actually a true bug so it's not worth resolving. Solution will be properly addressed in new OpenAL code. Closered. |
