Bug 342909 – media-video/avidemux-2.5.4 QT4 version fails setting audio preferences

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Eric F. GARIOUD 2010-10-27 10:42:37 UTC]

1/ When launching avidemux-2.5.4 QT4 version, Tools/Preferences/Audio/AudioDevice always shows Dummy irrespective of the active setting for preceeding application termination.
2/ Configuring this setting to Jack has no effect. When trying to play a video, no sound is output AND QJackCTL's connections window does not show any new client for Jack.
3/ Configuring this setting to Alsa (With the same asoundrc than in bug 338885 redirecting alsa default's output to jack) has no effect either. When trying to play a video, no sound is output AND QJackCTL's connections window does not show any new client for Jack
4/ Reproducible Always.
=========
5/ This problem only occurs with avidemux-2.5.4 QT version. It does not occur with avidemux-2.5.4 GTK version and does not occur with avidemux-2.5.3-r3 QT version.
=========
6/ Avidemux built with : USE="aac aften alsa amr dts gtk jack libsamplerate mp3 nls qt4 sdl truetype vorbis x264 xv xvid -esd -oss -pulseaudio"
List of qt-xyz packages version and use flags :
qt-gui-4.6.3  USE="accessibility cups dbus exceptions glib gtk mng nas qt3support tiff (-aqua) -debug -nis -pch -raster -trace -xinerama"
qt-svg-4.6.3  USE="exceptions iconv (-aqua) -debug -pch"
qt-core-4.6.3  USE="exceptions glib iconv optimized-qmake qt3support ssl (-aqua) -debug -doc -pch"
qt-test-4.6.3  USE="exceptions iconv (-aqua) -debug -pch"
qt-script-4.6.3  USE="exceptions iconv (-aqua) -debug -pch"
qt-opengl-4.6.3  USE="exceptions qt3support (-aqua) -debug -pch"
qt-xmlpatterns-4.6.3  USE="(-aqua) -debug -pch"
qt-sql-4.6.3-r2  USE="exceptions iconv mysql odbc qt3support sqlite (-aqua) -debug (-firebird) -freetds -pch -postgres"
qt-qt3support-4.6.3  USE="accessibility exceptions kde phonon (-aqua) -debug -pch"
qt-dbus-4.6.3  USE="exceptions (-aqua) -debug -pch"
qt-multimedia-4.6.3  USE="exceptions iconv (-aqua) -debug -pch"
qt-webkit-4.6.3-r1  USE="dbus exceptions kde (-aqua) -debug -pch"
===========
7/ could well be that avidemux-2.5.4 QT version would go better with qt-xyz thingies > 4.6.3 in which case a simple directive in avidemux' build would be satisfying however, and I apologize for this, I will not be able to test as I simply cannot afford going tildarch with qt-*
