Re: [mpg123-devel] feature request: save position in audio file and begin from that location next time

Hi Thomas,

I hit a bit of trouble. See below.

Some info:
I had mpg123 from the Ubuntu repos installed previously. It was working. I
did not remove it prior to making this version. I'm running Kubuntu 12.04.

I made/installed it the usual way:
./configure
make
make install

$ mpg123 --version
mpg123 20120423011752

$ mpg123 -Cv *.mpg
Trying output module oss.
Note: oss is the last output option... showing you any error messages now.
[oss.c:172] error: Can't open default sound device!
[audio.c:630] error: failed to open audio device
[audio.c:180] error: Unable to find a working output module in this list:
oss
[audio.c:532] error: Failed to open audio output module
[mpg123.c:902] error: Failed to initialize output, goodbye.

After removing version from repo:
$ sudo apt-get purge mpg123
$ mpg123 --version
mpg123 20120423011752
the error is still the same.

$ sudo make uninstall

Then I got a little surprise:

$ mpg123 --version
mpg321 version 0.2.13. Copyright (C) 2001, 2002 Joe Drew,
now maintained by Nanakos Chrysostomos and others.

$ sudo apt-get purge mpg321

$ mpg123 --version
bash: /usr/bin/mpg123: No such file or directory

$ /usr/local/bin/mpg123 --version
mpg123 20120423011752

# ln -s /usr/local/bin/mpg123 /usr/bin/mpg123

$ mpg123 -Cv *.mpg
Trying output module oss.
Note: oss is the last output option... showing you any error messages now.
[oss.c:172] error: Can't open default sound device!
[audio.c:630] error: failed to open audio device
[audio.c:180] error: Unable to find a working output module in this list:
oss
[audio.c:532] error: Failed to open audio output module
[mpg123.c:902] error: Failed to initialize output, goodbye.

I guess a lot of that was unnecessary...

As a final test:
mpg123-20120423011752$ sudo make uninstall
$sudo apt-get install mpg123
...and it works again

$ /usr/bin/mpg123 --version
mpg123 1.12.1

I believe Kubuntu uses Pulse Audio
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kubuntu>but I'm not entirely sure. I
don't see any mention of any plugins in the
Ubuntu package.

Maybe some of this is relevent.

$ cat /etc/libao.conf
default_driver=alsa
quiet

$lspci
00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family
High Definition Audio Controller (rev 05)
01:00.1 Audio device: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI Juniper HDMI
Audio [Radeon HD 5700 Series]

Any suggestions?

Regards,
Dave
