pitch fluctuations on mp3s
Sometimes, VLC slows down like an old vinyl when playing some mp3s, with slight pitch fluctuations.
The first time this happened to me, I had been playing with the "playback speed" feature. But now VLC still does this after a reinstall even though I haven't touched it.
One file on which this happens has a sample rate of 22050 Hz, as reported by VLC (Codec Details page). Windows Media Player doesn't exhibit the same problem on this file.
