Bug #: 30811 Summary: Music in Alpha Centauri stutters Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: michael@mcdonnell.dk Classification: Unclassified
Created attachment 40348 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=40348 Trace with WINEDEBUG=3D+driver,+winmm,+mmio,+mmsys,+sound,+mmtime,+mciwave,+msacm,+wavemap,+wave,+midi,+mixer,+mmaux,+dscapture,+dsound,+dsound3d
The background music in Alpha Centauri stutters. The music is generated on the fly through a tracker like system that uses midi and wave files (see .amb files in the fx directory). It is odd that the music is only affected and not sound effects in general.
The attached trace shows several mmio warnings about the buffers being too large. I suspect that it might cause sound stuttering if the buffers are not big enough to hold all the sound data.
