Description Colin Macdonald 2009-09-07 21:45:48 UTC

banshee needs a gstreamer plugin called soundtouch which has an element called bpmdetect.  This is used for automatic beats-per-minute detection.

The current banshee ebuild doesn't have this dep.  However, the feature seems to be enabled in banshee but then silently fails with no error.  This is not good.

There is no media-plugins/gst-plugins-soundtouch in the tree.  It is a part of gstreamer's -bad package.  I haven't tried to make an ebuild because I haven't had time understand gst-plugins-bad.eclass.  But its probably straightforward for someone who understands gstreamer on gentoo.

btw, AFAICT, this has nothing to do with the package media-sound/bpmdetect.

Here's an ebuild, tested with banshee, seems to work

nearly a year passed since the last post here. 
@leio: didn't you intend to commit the pending gst-plugins? ;-)
would really appreciate it

Comment 3 Mike Hodson 2011-02-01 16:28:59 UTC

I just today realized that soundtouch was available as a gstreamer plugin and wondered why I didn't have it.. Can this *please* be integrated into portage proper?

Comment 4 Bearcat M. Şándor 2011-02-04 06:19:14 UTC

I just installed this ebuild into my local portage tree and it compiles and installs just fine.  Now Banshee detects BPMs as it should

Banshee: 1.9.2

media-plugins/gst-plugins-soundtouch package has been added to tree.
Converting bug to handling the functionality and dependencies in banshee accordingly
