4.5. Audio

The Audio page of the Preferences dialog contains the audio playback settings.

[Important] Important

Kino only supports OSS or ALSA; it will not use a sound server.

[Tip] Tip

If you are running a sound server in your desktop environment such as esd for GNOME, or aRts for KDE, then Kino cannot open the sound device unless your driver explicitly supports it. Recent versions of ALSA incorporate dmix allowing any driver to support opening by multiple programs.
