Hi,
When I play wmv with vlc, there is a lot of noise, video is OK.
How to deal with this problem?
vlc: 2.0.5
-----
it is fixed for 2.0.6.

try:
muting the channels you do not use (cd, line in, Mic & Mic Boost)
reduce the volume of PCM on your mixer
If the noise continues try to see if the file itself does not contain noise by using a variety of players.
if using pulseaudio try using alsa or OSS & vice versa, just to prove that the noise is not being caused by the sound daemon
if you built the vlc from aur or abs try the pre-built one in the repo's or recompile with defaults enabled & no fancy features

Bet ya $20 your video will play find with mplayer or another. Highly likely a bug with upstream; you should open a bug report if one doesn't already exist. (Not with Arch but with upstream).

@wangsiyuan - I do not have a non-copyrighted file to provide upstream. Do you?

Doesn't appear to be in upstream. Time to figure out which of our packages is to blame. I just rolled back ffmpeg twice and have the same result. Someone else care to figure it out?

If I downgrade to ffmpeg-1:1.0.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz or earlier, wmv files can't be played. Why?

This isn't a fix, but have you tried turning on/off visualizations? I don't use it anymore, but whenever playing an audio file, I would have to turn visualizations on and off to get clear sound. Don't ask me why it works, it's just a temporary solution I found online. Just my two cents.

This combination works for me still: Upgrading any of these to a later version breaks .wma audio.
vlc-2.0.5-2 (has to be downgraded to work with the older ffmpeg/x264)
ffmpeg-1:1.0.1-1
x264-20121113-1
Although VLC can't be downgraded to -2 with the new QT update.

I can't downgrade vlc to vlc-2.0.5-2 because qt was replaced by qt4...

It isn't only wmv. It's ASF in general.

I have this issue aswell... started not long after some updates... don't remember when exactly

I have this static issue also.. and can't downgrade as mentioned in this topic's previous posts.

Since it's not an upstream bug, someone should open an Arch bug report... but against which package?

vlc fails to play .ts files. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=159151
wmv and ts files play fine with mplayer as graysky said.

.rmvb files also have noise.

I tried to git bisect ffmpeg. I wasn't able to successfully build every revision but my guess is

How much progress did we make?

I saw on another distribution's forum that they had a similar problem.
The answer was given to check their libavcodec

For me smplayer plays fine, but VLC has the issue with wmv.
Edit:
My apologies.
After reading the bug report I guess I just added noise to the thread and no meaningful info.

Yes, I have heard that up- or down-grading libavcodec may solve the issue, but I haven't tested this myself.

I have Fedora which have the same Vlc 2.0.5 but it has no issues.
