Loud click noise in SMPlayer

Hello,

When I'm watching video clips in the playlist, and the video changes, there are some loud "click" noise. It happens all time and are driving me nuts.

What is causing this, and how do I avoid it ??

Sometimes it helps changing the volume, but not allways.

Hmm sounds like it might be the alsa broken-pipe problem.

No idea, I've looked everywhere for a solution but nobody seams to have one. It might not be the broken-pipe error though check vc1 or run the player from a console window to see if you get any messages with "broken pipe" in them.

Re: Loud click noise in SMPlayer

I think the cause is:

This is due to the device being closed and reopened on track change.

Some soundcards make a click noise, some don't.

I suppose the fix would be to stop the video player from closing the Linux audio device (in /dev/snd/).
