Sound on Webrowser but no sound with MP3 or Videos

Post by dirkme »

I tried with PAVU Control every setting possible and I am unable to get sound with VLC Player or Gnome Player. It seems there is no application able to play sound on GhostBSD 11.1 sigh.

Any help is more than welcome.

Can you get sound in Exaile?

What sound card are you using?

I have a Tritton gaming headset and that comes with a USB cable and dongle where you can plug your Headphone jack into.

it looks like I can record and i can playback from the Browser but other media players don't even show up on PAVU.

OK, uninstalled FreeBSD as it doesn't install or better saying let you use your HP printer or scanner.

My HP post is more than 6 month old and no one can fix it.

It is 2018 and printing is a basic function for any operating system, at least it should be.

I have my hp printer working flawlessly here. Both wirelessly and by usb cable.
If installing hplip and then running

#hp-setup

doesn't work, try this.

#pkg ins gutenprint

Then go to http://localhost:631/ and add the printer there. It should find your printer and you can configure various options there.

Are you still getting the checksum error?

Hello NevilleGoddard, thank you for your reply.

I have a little youtube channel and get quite some help from my subscribers, if theirs or your suggestions will sort the problem, I will post it and hope it will open the doors for many people to use GhostBSD as daily driver.

DZME Linux here is the link.

There is lots of stuff, GhostBSD series is running right now and will be continued and every help is welcome ;-)

Hope that helps your Distro, I have already some replays where people said they run GhostBSD on their laptop now because of my videos ;-)

Cheers
