When playing spc files, it either gives total silence or random staccatto twangy clicks. Did this work under amd64 for anyone, ever? How did it get marked stable under amd64? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge xmms-spc 2. Try to play an spc in xmms Actual Results: The music was played improperly, with either total silence or random twangy clicks. Expected Results: It should have played the music properly.

It worked for me with my test files. Can you please provide me with a link to the file you're trying to play? Thanks
Here you go: http://burningsmell.dyndns.org/02-sting-chameleon.spc That's just one of hundreds that won't play for me under amd64. Could you link me to your test files please?
ok, it is marked -amd64 now.
Wait! Before giving up on xmms-spc for amd64, can someone try the following? Append spcxmms-0.2.1/libspc/port.h line 150 with " || defined(__x86_64__)" I have reason to believe this is just an endianness bug. amd64 is also little endian, but is currently treated as big-endian by the snes9x code. See the thread I have going on the subject here: http://www.snes9x.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=1399 I wanted to test this fix myself but I am too much of a neophyte with portage and seem to run into md5 problems when I edit the ebuild. So I'm hoping someone more experienced than myself can try it. :-)
I've just tried what #4 suggested and it works perfect here.
Created attachment 57732 [details, diff] patch in portage format for port.h This is my first patch, but I think it's about right.

Sadly this means you can't just edit an ebuild to add a flag you want anymore, you have to: 1) Copy the ebuild and it's files into your portage overlay 2) Modify ebuild to taste 3) ebuild foo.ebuild digest
in cvs. thanks.
