| Are you trying to play MP3s? If so, did you emerge it with the mp3 USE flag? |

Ugh. You guys gotta do some reading (reading Primozic reply might have also helped  ). The new BMP uses the mp3 USE Flag. Add it to the bmp package or to your make.conf and it will compile in support for MP3...its not a bug or anything, its the future of BMP. MP3 is proprietary software, its not GNU. |

Yeah I ended up figuring that out, I think its a bit ridiculous since mp3 is pretty much standard....may not be the greatest format but still.. |

I added two warnings in the hope of catching your eye, when the merge starts and when the merge is done.
(And yes, making this topic sticky wouldn't hurt) |

Run a | Code: | | echo "media-sound/beep-media-player mp3" >> /etc/portage/package.use |
and portage will remember it for you the next time you emerge "this bloody thing".

I've a stimular problem
i noitcied when emerging bmp after the config it won't compile support for mp3
so i did
| Code: | | USE="mp3" emerge beep-media-player" |
now i saw there was support for mp3
theres a libmpg123 in the Plugins Input directory:
| Code: |
linux maikel # ls /usr/lib/bmp/Input
libcdaudio.la libmpg123.la libvorbis.la libwav.la
libcdaudio.so libmpg123.so libvorbis.so libwav.so
|
But no mpg123 in beep-media-player (see the Config -> Plugins -> Media)
picture
so its most likely BMP doesn't see my plugin
Anyone can help me (and BMP  ) seeing the mp3 plugin? |

| I just added mp3 to USE in /etc/make.conf after checking the USE flags and noticing -mp3. I also have a bunch of OGGs and some MPCs so I knew that the problem was not with the whole of BMP. |

| As I had the same problem and my first idea was a missing use flag indeed I wonder why the mp3 flag isn't listed in /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc ? |

It's in use.local.desc as it's a local USE-flag, not a global one.
ufed will show it (as will emerge -puDv world when you're about to update). |

I have big problem with playing mp3 files. All other files are fine.
I have emerged BMP with USE="mp3" and I can see MPEG plugin in Plugins menu, but when i will start playing some mp3 file, BMP crashes ( recieves SIGSEGV ). Anyone has clues?
| Code: | # emerge -pv beep-media-player
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild R ] media-sound/beep-media-player-0.9.7-r2 +alsa -debug +esd -gnome +mmx +mp3 +nls +oggvorbis -old-eq +oss 0 kB
