I've recently emerge --update'ed this ebuild, which shows everything split off in five different dirctions. I'm finding now that I can't play MP3 streams from offical Icecast 2.x! It just hangs. I didn't have this problem until I updated the emerge into the split XMMS ebuilds. I've already recompiled, disabling the "mad" useflag. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Compile XMMS 2. Point it to an MP3 stream online 3. FREAZE! Actual Results: XMMS Freezes and requires a killall -9 to kill. Expected Results: It should be playing music!

emerge xmms-mpg123
It pulled and emerged when I ran: USE="-mad" emerge xmms. Still no go. May have to unmerge xmms-mad first.
disable the mad Input plugin in the plugin preferences
Disabling the mad plugin doesn't change anything. xmms-1.2.10-r14
I "fixed" this by unmerging the xmms-mad plugin, and putting this in my /etc/portage/package.use: media-sound/xmms -mad The real problem is the plugin's HTTP stream handling... which really sucks, even with MAD's mpg321 or madplay itself. :(
Only installing xmms-mpg123 also helps. (If you want the mad plugin for 'normal' mp3s)
