Xine problem in amarok

Deltabweb · 10-09-2005, 11:58 PM

Hi,
When I select the xine engine in amarok it says that it can't initialize my sound card driver.
Though kaffeine, that uses xine, works like a charm.
I'm using alsa drivers compiled as module.
Also I uninstalled the suse version of xine and installed another from synaptic.
Any ideas ?

Must be some amaroK issue cause I just stumbled into it. Hrmm... I just updated to version 1.3.3 of amaroK which are you using?

1.32
It works with 1.33 ?

I had the same problem. Xine engine in amarok stopped working all of a sudden one day. The solution - I restored backup of my home directory, and everything came back to normal (which means it's a probably some wicked config problem, at least in my case it was).

Yeh that's it thanks
When I launch it from root it works so it's fucked up configs
Now I just need how to reset these configs

Thx again for the reply

Just delete ~/.xine directory. Works for me.
