Can anyone confirm crazy distortion playing this ogg file with Allegro? (streaming or play_sample)

https://www.dropbox.com/s/cu9jolhfrr4zojj/asdf.ogg?dl=0

EDIT: Actually I seem to be having this distortion problem with all ogg files. I have already tested WAV, IT, and XM files and those play fine.

What operating system? What version of Allegro?

Do the Allegro examples have the same problem?

5.2.4 linux

Works fine here (Linux, ogg 1.3.2-1, vorbis 1.3.5-3ubuntu0.2). I'd have guessed it was the audio driver, but that doesn't explain wav etc being fine.

SiegeLord how do I query the ogg and vorbis versions on my system?

EDIT: I should mention that I'm using the 32-bit Allegro packages available through apt-get

EDIT 2: Confirmed ogg files play fine in the ex_stream_file example.

That's a good clue. Post some code you're using in yours.

From what I can tell I am doing exactly the same thing as the example ... at first I was not creating my own mixer, so to try and fix it I added that, but it didn't make a difference.

BTW I just tested on Windows with 5.2.3 (doubt the version matters) and it works fine.

Here are the commands I use to install the 32-bit binaries.

sudo apt-get install liballegro5.2:i386 \

Oh, cool. How?

Oh, I just dumped it here:

Heh. It's listed under "Rare". I'm just like rub it in why don't you! XD

No ideas on this?

As an aside, this language is very foreign to me. I have no idea what it is even is. Memory says maybe Forth, but I have no idea if that's even correct because I know next to nothing about Forth. When you post code, you can give a filename by using <code name="foo.fs">teh codes</code>. That will at least give us a hint about what you're posting so that we can attempt to interpret it. I imagine the "unique" language choice interferes with people's ability to help you, particular if it is in fact a stack-based language as I believe Forth is since that requires some thought processes normally not required in other languages. In that case, you may wish to do a Forth <-> C conversion before posting code, albeit, you could introduce errors that way so it's a gamble either way... May depend on how severe the issue is for you.

It is indeed Forth! Read it from left to right. Calls go AFTER the parameters, which are pushed onto an implicit stack. >R R@ and R> are commands for using another stack for quick stashing. Code can be compiled or immediately interpreted. I use Forth because I hate variables and types! (Not really)

I used to go through the trouble to convert to psuedocode but you are right it introduces another variable and Forth has gotten a bit of a boost in visibility lately, so I figured most people at least recognize it. ForthStar on Github stars like 20 new projects a day!
