celluloid

The flatpak version of Celluloid does not play any audio when playing to a jack sink.

This seems to have happened since the latest flatpak version, as I remember it working a week or two ago.

I would suspect it has something to do with this bug: https://github.com/celluloid-player/celluloid/issues/506

I have tried version from the repository and it works there.

$ celluloid --version
Celluloid 0.20


$ mpv --version

Here is the version strings from inside the flatpak:

I am unable to use mpv form within the flatpak environment, so I can't test it (I get an error that I need to select a video out device).

Thank you for your time!

I figured it out: By adding "--ao=pulse" to my MPV options in Celluloid it started working again.

But it is a strange thing.

Can confirm it solves the issue for me too.

Yep this fixed my issue too. Thanks.

The MPV options are located here:

Edit -> Preferences -> Miscellaneous Tab Extra mpv options: --ao=pulse
