 Posted: Tue Jun 27, 2006 5:22 pm Post subject: mp3 playback in amarok w/ xine engine |
 |
|
So, I just did a new gentoo install and am having problems with mp3 playback with the xine engine in amarok. The gstreamer engine stutters when I playback my mp3s, so I want to use xine. Gstreamer has never quite worked for me, and so I've always used xine from w/in amarok. Anyway, xine won't play the mp3s at all, amarok just skips over the mp3s, scrolling through the playlist very quickly. Is there something I need to do to get the xineengine to playback mp3s?
Thanks. |

| Same problem here. My ogg files are played without problems, just the mp3s fail... |

| Well, both mp3 and xine are in my use flags and were definitely there when I compiled amarok and everything else. (I just did a fresh install and took the make.conf from a backup of the system prior to the install--don't ask) |

Hi, I'm having this problem too.
I had mad in my use flags and compiled xine-lib with it. But I'm still not able to play mp3 with amarok.
| Code: |
emerge -pv xine-lib
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.2_pre20060328-r9 USE="X aac alsa arts dvd esd ffmpeg mad opengl sdl vorbis win32codecs xv -a52 -aalib -asf -debug -directfb -dts -dxr3 -fbcon -flac -gnome -imagemagick -ipv6 -libcaca -mng -modplug -oss -samba -speex -theora -v4l -vcd -vidix -xinerama -xvmc" VIDEO_CARDS="-i810 -nvidia -via" 0 kB

This is my libmad:
| Code: |
emerge -pv libmad
These are the packages that would be merged, in order:
Calculating dependencies... done!
[ebuild R ] media-libs/libmad-0.15.1b USE="-debug" 0 kB
Total size of downloads: 0 kB
|
Is there anything else I should do?
Is there some xine log? Maybe it isn't being able to use libmad?
Thanks in advance.

I'm about as far as you can get from being an expert in the matter, but can you eliminate the possibility that it's "just" mp3 causing the problem? For example, you have the vorbis USE flag -- do you have an ogg file you can play to see if it works? If the ogg doesn't work either, then the mad flag probably isn't the problem.
The only thing I can see in there that might change matters is the OSS flag, which for me, is enabled. The rest doesn't seem like it'd make a difference, but your experience with playing an ogg file (whether it works or not) would probably suggest an appropriate next step. Another thing you might do is see if you can get anything else to produce sounds in KDE/Gnome. Can you hear the startup sound when you startx? If not, might be an issue with the sound card and not Amarok specifically ... |

Hi isolationism.
Thanks for your reply.
Yeap. I can get all sound working. I have the following in my use flags:
| Code: |
USE="alsa acpi dvd dvdread network live nptl cups sse sse2 mpeg apache2 mmx mozilla svg kerberos jikes -oss -apm audiofile cdparanoia no_wxgtk1 win32codecs xine musicbrainz encode ieee1394 mmxext mplayer hal dbus cdr -xmms dri -ipv6 gtk2 x264 aac ffmpeg bzip2"
|
Also, I can play ok with mplayer.
I think it is very strange amarok isn't being able to play mp3 files 
This is the output I got when compiling lib_xine:
| Code: |
./configure --prefix=/usr --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --datadir=/usr/share --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var/lib --disable-gnome --disable-nls --disable-ipv6 --disable-samba --disable-altivec --disable-v4l --disable-mng --disable-imagemagick --enable-faad --disable-flac --with-ogg --with-vorbis --disable-speex --disable-a52 --with-external-a52dec --enable-mad --with-external-libmad --disable-dts --with-external-libdts --with-x --disable-xinerama --disable-vidix --disable-dxr3 --disable-directfb --disable-fb --enable-opengl --disable-aalib --disable-caca --enable-sdl --disable-oss --enable-alsa --enable-arts --enable-esd --disable-vcd --without-internal-vcdlibs --disable-asf --enable-w32dll --disable-modplug --with-external-ffmpeg --disable-polypaudio --disable-optimizations --disable-xvmc --with-xv-path=//usr/lib --with-w32-path=/usr/lib/win32 --enable-fast-install --disable-dependency-tracking --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu

Note that --enable-mad flag being used.

By checking configure output, it seems to be using external libmad. I will try to remove libmad and recompile libxine.
