Mandriva: kino Print E-mail
User Rating:      How can I rate this item?
Posted by Benjamin D. Thomas   
Mandrake The version of kino shipped with 2010.0 does not use the soundwrapper system to allow output to legacy OSS sound device in a friendly way (without soundwrapper the first application to use OSS for sound will hog the device and prevent any other apps using sound). This update changes the .desktop file used to launch kino from the menus to ensure that soundwrapper is used. Additionally, this update also provides soundwrapper package in main/updates media, as it is a new dependency required by kino.
