Forgot to add: it also fixes misdetection of headphone, when plugged in and

Hi!
xmms-embedded.sf.net/feed/oz32
feed is rebuilt with some little fixes (libglib dependancy), flac plugin is 
available again, mplayer is freshly built from cvs, and everything else is up 
to date. Also there is a new sound-module package, for those who are annoyed 
by the low quality when recording with a mic (a bug in OZ 3.2).

Hi!

tarball of cvs (provided by sourceforge) is available, 
link on the main page xmms-embedded.sf.net

Hi!

So due to popular request a feed is now available with mplayer, xmms
and their dependencies at

http://xmms-embedded.sf.net/feed/oz32

Test it, and report any bugs - in case you find any (there are several known 
of them).

Btw it might be a good idea to disable/comment out other feeds while updating, 
but you can try otherwise of course (I didn't try the later).

Also the dependencies are older versions - I will update them - so you can 
install a newer version from OZ feeds if you want, but these should work.

Hi!

xmms 0.00007 is now in the CVS repository - binary packages should appear 
sooner or later in the OZ feeds.

This is a bugfix release, fixed are:
- noise when playing from source with some odd samplerate (eg 32khz) fixed
- compilation with gcc3 should not break the gui now
- /dev/dsp1 is closed when the speaker is not used (headphone is plugged in)
- vorbis plugin gives feedback when buffering from shoutcast stream

I don't know, if they exist and look like normal /dev/dsp that should  be ok.

And I take it sound is broken? I have no idea why - if it disapperad for good 
with xmms-e maybe I fixed it somehow, if this will come back with xmms-e than 
the solution is not yet known neither for xmms nor xmms-e. If it comes back - 
or for more info - strace could help.
strace -o /mnt/ram/xmmsbrokensound.log -e trace=open,close,ioctl,read,write 
xmms

strace is in OZ feed, and most probably in debian too.

fuser won't work - reports "/proc is empty (not mounted ?)" under
Debian.  An artifact of the chroot arrangement?  Could that arrangement
be leading to a problem with 'normal' /dev/dsp and /dev/dsp under the
chroot environment?  I renamed /dev/dsp1 in both places to make it
inaccessible.  Update - ssh'd to the Z while Debian was running. 
/dev/dsp is unused, /dev/dsp1 doesn't exist, /mnt/card/dev/dsp1 also
doesn't exist, /mnt/card/dev/dsp lists 5 PIDs, all of them xmms.

Hi!

Than it's kind of interesting, as it should not be opening /dev/dsp1 (afaik 
only xmms-e does that). Maybe it does, you can check with fuser /dev/dsp1 
perhaps - actually you can check that any time sound is broken, to see if 
/dev/dsp1 is the cause, or something else not yet known.

According to Klaus: "That's the standard binary off the Debian arm port,
I didn't recompile it."  It's running under X11.  X runs great, even X
forwarding via SSH.  (after Klaus suggested 'xhosts +localhost')  I can

It surely did!  I'm going to wipe the 5600 in a few days and reinstall
everything, I'll document precisely what I do in getting xmms back in
again.  (and yes, I'll certainly backup first! ;^)  BTW, xmms in the

Hi!

Thanks for the info. I have one idea, try renaming /dev/dsp1 to something 
else, maybe that helps.
Unfortunatelly i am bbusy in the next 1-2 months as i have f***ing exam 
period, so I won't have much time to spend on xmms.

Wanted to let you know - I successfully installed the Debian environment
on the 5600 this evening, and xmms (included with it) has the same
playback problem there.

Have you had any insights on this?

Hi!

Thanks for the sample, it surely is broken :)
In the next few days I will try to find out what the problem could be - xmms 
opening /dev/dsp with unsupported samplerate, or format, etc.

I'll pass on building for now then... :^)

Here's where I stand at the moment:

I copied /opt/QtPalmtop/lib/xmms/.xmms to /home/root/.xmms and I am able to 
run xmms as root from console, both local or through ssh.

However, playback is garbled.  Takes roughly twice as long, and it's very 
'choppy'.  I've recorded a sample (3mb wav) to demonstrate, posted at:
http://live.newkirk.us/recording02.wav - that's Led Zeppelin, Kashmir, but
it's hard to recognize.  As a 'control', the Zaurus Media Player bundled 
with the 5600 (along with the vorbis codec plugin) plays fine.

This is with both vorbis and wav playback, haven't tried mp3 but would 
expect the same problem.

If I try to run as user zaurus from console (after copying /home/root/.xmms 
to /home/zaurus/.xmms and changing ownership) it appears to work (IE console 
messages ok, does not exit) but it does not open the GUI.  I tried "chmod 
ugo+rwx" for all associated files, no difference.

For now I'll concentrate on getting playback from root console launch, and
work on user zaurus issues later.

If you can listen to the sample recording and see if you can understand 
what it is doing I would appreciate it.

Hi!

It is trying to allocate that amount of mem, because it can not
find ~/.xmms/config . If you are saying that cannot be created at all,
than the source has to be modified.

If you want to builx xmms from source, a known working way to do that
is with the help of the oz buildroot - I build with that too.
However, it might not be necessary, if you change something I will build it=
=20
for you if you want (I already have oz-buildroot etc.)

I manually untar the data.tar.gz from xmms-e 0.00006 ipk on a Zaurus
5600.  The only filesystem issue when doing this as root is that it
attempts to create symlink /root/.xmms which is read-only directory. 
The 5600 relocates to /home/root instead.

However, when trying to run I get the:

Allocating memory! 529200000 bytes
GLib-ERROR **: could not allocate 529200000 bytes

error.  529mb is a bit much to allocate... ;^)

Any ideas/suggestions?  

I downloaded the CVS source, will get required libs in order tomorrow
and try to build.  BTW, found this:

INCPATH  = -I. -I../.. -I$(INC_PATH) -I$(OPIE_INC) -I$(QTDIR)/include
-I/home/pnis/OZ.build/build/opie/mkspecs/qws/linux-sharp-g++
LINK     = arm-linux-gcc
LFLAGS   = $(LFLAGS_EXTRA) -shared -Wl,-soname,libQPEgui.so.1
-Wl,-rpath,/home/pnis/OZ.build/build/xmms-e/compiled/xmms/General

in xmms/General/QPEgui/Makefile...  ;^)

Subject: [Openzaurus-users] xmms-e 0.00006 is available in an OZ feed
near you

Hi!

Finally xmms-e 0.00006 is available in the unstable and testing OZ feed
thanks 
to Kergoth.

Improvements:
- mplayer plugin with mplayer plays movies smoother than ever, because of
the 
sound driver update in OZ
- headphone is detected if plugged in, otherwise music is played through the

buzzer.
-  screen is not switched on between songs

best regards

XMMS 0.00005 final is released for OZ3.x 
It is available from any recent OZ feed. 

The main features: 
- mp3/ogg/sid/shn(shorten)/mod(.it with filters, .xm, .s3m etc.) playback 
- ogg and mp3 streaming (no proxy support for mp3 yet) 
- movie playback with the aid of mplayer, supported formats: 
asf,ogm,avi,mov,mpg,etc - with the usual ffmpeg codecs plus some others(eg. 
cinepak,roq,etc) 

For changelog see xmms-embedded.sf.net .
(ogm playing works, ogg seeking works, mp3's that crashed before work,
movies play smooth)

Denes

ps: oz3.1rc1 feed is being built currently, will be up in a few hours from now

Hi!

mplayer and the main package has been updated. Mplayer supports ogm,
playback is faster. Vorrbis plugin is now using tremor (just like mplayer).
Light will not turn of while playing a movie. Cancel button works most of the 
time.
