Full Text Bug Listing

I want to be able to use uade with the beep media player, but the ebuild only
works with xmms. I think that a bmp use flag should be created for situations
like this. How should this be done?

A test ebuild

What about this? It uses a new bmp use flag to test whether to install the bmp
plugin.

Re-assigning to maintainer.  CC-ing sound for the bmp section.

Needed games cc'ed too...

I don't recommend using bmp as the local use flag for this.  I bet we'll want
that at some point for the bmp graphic file format.  Better to call it beepmp I
think.

Does the attached ebuild work for you? It doesn't work for me, first it
complains about missing bmp package:

Package bmp was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `bmp.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'bmp' found

and then I get a whole bunch of errors when compiling uade.c. I suspect this is
caused by bmp not registering itself correctly with pkg-config, but I want to
confirm it on other systems before it can be reported as a bug.

The ebuild compiles and installs fine, but I am unable to play any mod files.

Could you please post your `emerge info` output?

uade must be made dependable on beep media player version >= 0.9.7. Otherwise
it will not compile. Versions >= 0.9.7 has a pkgconfig file named bmp.pc, but
older version have it named beep.pc.

Michal Januszewski, you probably have bmp < 0.9.7. The older versions are not
source compatible with >= 0.9.7, that's why the compilation will fail. I have
bmp 0.9.7 installed on my system and uade emerges fine.

So I propose something like:

bmp? ( >=media-sound/beep-media-player-0.9.7 )

Just any version of beep-media-player will not work because of plugin
incompatibilty.

And I agree that bmp should be called something like beepmp.

PS. I am the uade project main contributor so feel free to suggest how to make
it more suitable for Gentoo.

will@johnstonclan.net,

you might not be able to play any mod files, that is if you mean _protracker_ module files, because you have mikmod or modplug installed into your player. If you are trying to play non-amiga modules, such as .xm or .it files, then you are really out of luck, because UADE isn't designed for non-amiga formats. Better use other mod tools.

Run the beep-media-player from terminal and show me what it displays. Uade might give relevant information on stderr. (I apologize for stderr flooding)

will@johnstonclan.net, sorry I should have told you directly about the bmp
depedency problem. See what I told michal. In short, it must be >= bmp-0.9.7,
nothing lower will not work.

A new ebuild

This ebuild updates the deps and the beepmp use flag

I got uade to compile with bmp support now (it turned out I was using some odd
bmp version from my local overlay), but I've run into some problems while using
it in bmp. The plugin seems to be recognized correctly - it's on the plugin
list and can be configured. The problem I have - I can't add any mods to the
playlist. Running bmp with beep-media-player <mod.name> works fine, but trying
to add a file using the file selector results in a message about unrecognized
format. No additional info is available on the console. 

Any ideas what could be causing this?

I can't put mods into the playlist normally, I can open them like
`beep-media-player whatever.mod`. When I do though they play silent.

The playlist problem could be (I am not much of a coder) that the code does not
register the fact that those filename extensions are supported.

Will, if they play silent, are you sure you have a proper audio output
configured? Tell me if there are some messages on the stderr.

I found the bug! It seems beep-media-player requires that plugins can handle
URLs. We couldn't handle file:// :( from the command line beep-media-player
*SOMETHING* doesn't give files in URL format, but file selector window does.

Please patch uade-0.91 in portage with this patch:

ef4a92a1378d28cf740ba7958801ddea uade-0.91-beep-media-player-fix.diff 630

Attaching it here also.

The patch is rather simple, it just strips file:// prefix from the filename if
such exists. 3 new lines of code into plugindir/beepmp/uade.c.
