Bug 61277 – mplayer-1.0_pre5: Add support for DTS encoded in WAV files

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Kalin KOZHUHAROV 2004-08-22 11:23:36 UTC]

For ages I was trying to listen to the music found on http://www.sr.se/multikanal/index.stm !!!

Now I found on the mplayer ML that there is support for libdts, so I just rediffed by hand and added to my local portage.

Please test and apply. (WFM, but tested just one file for now, they are big!)


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Get any DTS file form the above site.
2. try to listen to it in mplayer

Actual Results:  
You hear some white noise.

Expected Results:  
You should hear 5.1 sound!

I need you guys to mark libdts so I can add this patch to MPlayer.  Thanks ahead of time.

I am getting an error 'Unknown parameter: --disable-dts' compiling media-video/mplayer-1.0_pre6.

Please let me know if you need more info.

[Comment 7 Martin Allchin 2004-12-28 09:56:59 UTC]

I found a fix for my error above (should be --disable-libdts).

Apparently a bug has already been filed and a patch submitted.

have a look at 75793 and 75762

In pre6 now and won't be in pre5-r5 as that's a security release and I don't want to touch that.
