Normally I use mplayer to play DVD's but I ran across one that was giving me the french audio track by default not english. Well at the time I was too stupid to figure out how to get it to play the english audio track (since I have figured it out using the -alang switch!). Thought I would emerge ogle and give it a try. DVD's play fine but for the life of me I can't get audio working w/ogle. Using alsa, emerge info on ogle:

root@Isis jeff # etcat -u ogle
[ Colour Code : set unset ]
[ Legend : (U) Col 1 - Current USE flags ]
[ : (I) Col 2 - Installed With USE flags ]

U I [ Found these USE variables in : media-video/ogle-0.9.2 ]
- - oss : Adds support for OSS (Open Sound System)
+ + mmx : Adds support for optimizations for Pentium MMX and Athlon class processors
+ + alsa : Adds support for media-libs/alsa-lib (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture)
+ + xv : Adds in optional support for the Xvideo extension (an X API for video playback)

I have alsa support built in. Tried copying /usr/share/ogle/oglerc to my home dir (changing it to .oglerc) and changing some settings in there but still no luck. I have used the ogle gui and when the actual movie started playing switched the audio to English AC3, still nothing. Anyone have some advice here? As I said above using mplayer with the alang switch I have no problems but ogle's menu support is kinda nice.

this is an ol thread but when I ran into audio problems with ogle today I found this and it worked for me:

copy /usr/share/ogle/oglerc to ~/.oglerc

Edit ~/.oglerc


from:
<device>
<driver>alsa</driver>
<path>/dev/dsp</path>
<alsa>
<name>default</name>
</alsa>
</device>

to

<device>
<driver>oss</driver>
<path>/dev/dsp</path>
<alsa>
<name>default</name>
</alsa>
</device>
