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?
Created attachment 38643 [details] 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) shd / uade team
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. shd / uade team
Created attachment 39015 [details] 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: http://uade.ton.tut.fi/uade/patches/uade-0.91-beep-media-player-fix.diff 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. shd / uade team Heikki Orsila heikki.orsila@iki.fi http://uade.ton.tut.fi

my bad. my bug fix patch sucked. thanks to michal for reporting and doing the second fix.
