I've got xmms-1.2.0-r13 xmms-mad-0.8 libmad-0.15.1b I can't reproduce several MP3s using xmms-mad: they aren't recognized as such and the "open file" dialog pops up. I can reproduce them without any problems using mpg123, cplay, mplayer, xine and xmms-mpg123. I don't know if the problem is in libmad or in xmms-mad, since I don't know any other applications using libmad. $ emerge info Portage 2.0.51.19 (default-linux/x86/2005.0, gcc-3.3.5-20050130, glibc-2.3.4.20041102-r1, 2.6.11-gentoo-r5 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.11-gentoo-r5 i686 AMD Athlon(TM) XP 2000+ Gentoo Base System version 1.4.16 Python: dev-lang/python-2.2.3-r5,dev-lang/python-2.3.4-r1 [2.3.4 (#1, Feb 8 2005, 23:08:02)] dev-lang/python: 2.2.3-r5, 2.3.4-r1 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.59-r6, 2.13 sys-devel/automake: 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.5, 1.4_p6, 1.6.3, 1.9.4 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r7 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.14 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.8.1-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-O3 -pipe -march=athlon-xp -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -falign-functions=4 -mfpmath=sse" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -pipe -march=athlon-xp -fforce-addr -fomit-frame-pointer -falign-functions=4 -mfpmath=sse" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache digest distcc distlocks fixpackages sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/ ftp://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo/ http://pandemonium.tiscali.de/pub/gentoo/" LANG="it_IT@euro" LINGUAS="it" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 3dnow 3dnowex X X509 a52 aac aaca52 aalib alsa apache2 avi berkdb bitmap-fonts cdparanoia cdr chroot crypt cscope cups curl dga dts dvb dvd dvdr dvdread emboss encode erandom extensions faad fam fbcon ffmpeg flac flash foomaticdb fortran freetype gd gdbm ggi gif gimpprint ginac gnutls gphoto2 gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml guile hal imagemagick imap imlib innodb ipv6 jack java javascript jikes joystick jpeg kde kerberos krb4 lcms ldap libcaca libg++ libwww live lzo mad matroska mcal md5sum memlimit mikmod mmx mmxext mng motif mozilla mp3 mpeg mpi mysql ncurses network nls nptl nvidia odbc offensive ogg oggvorbis opengl pam parse-clocks pcre pdflib perl pic plotutils png ppds prelude python qhull qt quicktime readline real rtc samba scanner sdl skey slang slp sndfile snmp socks5 speex spell sqlite sse ssl stream svg svga tcltk tcpd tetex tga theora tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts usb v4l v4l2 vcd vim-with-x vlm vorbis wmf wxwindows xchattext xml xml2 xmms xosd xprint xv xvid xvmc yaz zlib linguas_it" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS
Same problem here with the same versions. I think this problem is caused by a buggy xmms-mad, because madplay plays these files without any problems: madplay -o wave:- song_not_played_by_xmms.mp3 | aplay That works without any problems, so it is a problem with xmms-mad.
It's the opposite for me: madplay does NOT work, either. MP3s that xmms-mad can read work with madplay, too. $ madplay broken.mp3 MPEG Audio Decoder 0.15.2 (beta) - Copyright (C) 2000-2004 Robert Leslie et al. error: frame 0: lost synchronization 0 frames decoded (0:00:00,0), -inf dB peak amplitude, 0 clipped samples
I've already tried re-emerging everything, # emerge -v1 libmad madplay xmms-mad with no result.
Without having a sample is difficult to find the cause. Also, try with saner CFLAGS, sse support is sometimes a problem.
