Mageia forum

Hey guys,
yesterday I installed Mageia because my Kubuntu 12.3 finaly crashed.
Until now everything has worked fine, but now i have a problem with the sound.
I installed MiXXX, Firefox, Flash, and Minecraft (yes seriusly ).
Now I have the problem that if I just start MiXXX it does all of its work fine, but if I start Firefox and go to Youtube to watch a video, i get no sound, not from YT aswell as from Mixx eigther.
Same problem if playing Minecraft.
Does someone knows a solution for this problem?
Alsamixer I already checked, aswell as the other possebilities to change some properties of the sound system.

Would be great if anybody could help me out.

Hello,
can you check you have these codecs installed :
faad2, libdv, libmad, libmpeg2, libxv and x264

Hey,
thank you for your reply.
I haven't any of these codecs installed, so i went on to do it but i couldn't find faad2 and x264 in the software manager.
Any idea why or where i can get it?

You're probably missing tainted repos. Check https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Software_management or maybe https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Install_and_ ... r_beginner

Apart from that, as sound plays, but not simultaneously with multiple programs together, codecs are only a minor issue.
But you don't provide information what you have actually done via alsamixer, or which properties of the sound system you have changed.
