Darnit.. I just got that error now too. Now that I've found this, I can't install it. I am a broken man at this moment. Muito triste. ;.;

If you have a 770 then yes it's normal.

Unable to install latest xmms. It depends on xmmsctrl > 1.9-3 (note the GREATER THAN, not ">="), but only xmmsctrl_1.9-3 is available.

Doh :(
Thanks I will upload a new version in a couple of hours.

edit:
I've uploaded version 10

[terrencegf]

I've uploaded version 10

Thanks for the update. It looks like my xmms-compat is no longer necessary. However, I didn't see the link to the default skins directory (/usr/share/xmms/Skins/) when I used the skin browser. I had to add it manually. Or did you update the xmms-skins package to add that directory to the user's prefs file? If not, then users should be made aware that they need to add the directory themselves to see any skins installed by the 'xmms-skins' or 'xmms-skins-others' packages.

Also, for your next release, you should put the xmms.desktop file into the "/usr/share/applications/hildon/" directory so that Personal Menu can "see" the application. Right now, a user has to enter the command for XMMS manually.

Yes, that's what I will do in xmms-skins* packages with an awk postinst script. Probably today I'll upload new versions.

Ok didn't know about this personal menu. If it helps, I'll change this.

Thanks for the feedback terrencegf

[free]

By the way, the modifications are done in the source code as I didn't want to add a conffile to xmms and also didn't want to touch the user configuration (and especially for handling upgrades)

Font was anyway not existing on default system so this was not adapted for these devices.
Double Size was needed for first start.

The rest is done in the postinst.

I have n800 with last 2007 OS firmeware. XMMS playng mp3-songs perfectly, but ogg load 100% cpu. Im trying Alsa, eSound and Crossfade output plugins, but no result. Any ideas about this?

[danramos]

This is GREAT!! ^.^ I loooove XMMS on the N800! It gives me everything I want in a GREAT mp3 player. MUCH better than the one that comes with the N800's OS. (I've really, really REALLY been hurting for a good FF/RW and .. well EVERYTHING XMMS does.!)

I've noticed one significantly BAD thing. If you minimize the XMMS window, it disappears entirely with no good way to bring it back onscreen--no icon in the task list at all. (I did manage to bring it back onscreen by re-launching it so that it brought itself back to the foreground--but this is kind sloppy. I wonder if I can get it to show up in the status bar at the top of the screen along next to the POWER indicator? I'm guessing this would mean needing to write a maemo specific plugin for XMMS.)

[danramos]

Also.. I LOVE that I can position XMMS on maemo. I'm REALLY glad--it can look like it's a part of my desktop this way... except that it insists on always being on top even though I have 'Always On Top' turned off.

Thank you VERY VERY much for this port! :)

Way back in this thread somewhere, I posted a one-liner to bring it back up. Put that in osso-statusbar-cpu (or equivalent), or use kciconsbox...

Way back in this thread somewhere, I posted a one-liner to bring it back up. Put that in osso-statusbar-cpu (or equivalent), or use kciconsbox...

Using a one-liner to bring it back up isn't really a fix, though. Just relaunching it does the same thing (only much easier than launching xterm or having to install yet another tool to just let me bring it back to the foreground) since XMMS won't allow more than once instance anyway.

This thread is way too long to read the whole thing in decent time but it seems that it should have a few maemo specific patches made to make sure it behaves and have that sent back up to the XMMS folks for inclusion.

If I was a C/C++ coder, I'd help do it myself--but I'm just a network admin/UNIX admin/Subversion admin by career. I can at least understand the process of what we need to fix this properly. Is there anything I can do to help this along in my capacity?

[Benson]

I'm aware those aren't fixes, but in my understanding, xmms development is pretty much dead, so upstreaming any patches probably isn't gonna work so well, either. (And I've got the other tools on my system anyway, so that worked really nice for me, even though it obviously wasn't the right solution...)

I don't really use xmms anymore, so I haven't kept up with this, but there are at least two variants floating around; my experience is entirely with the one covered here. Someone (not sure who) has released a different build that keeps an icon in the task list... you could look around for that, anyway. (I think the difference is not in the actual build as much as the .desktop file, but there might be some difference in xmms proper as well.)

[danramos]

Thanks, Benson! :) I'm lovin' all over this port but I'll keep an eye out for the other one too, then!

[free]

xmms-skins packages updated. when you have these packages installed, you have to select /usr/share/xmms/Skins in the skin browser to see the new skins.



Also, for your next release, you should put the xmms.desktop file into the "/usr/share/applications/hildon/" directory so that Personal Menu can "see" the application. Right now, a user has to enter the command for XMMS manually.
Done for the next release



For the minimize, if you would read a few posts before you would see that the menu entry is used to start xmms and also to bring it back. xmms works fine under other WM but not with the default shipped with the nokias...


XMMS folks for inclusion.
xmms is considered abandonware. It is not maintained anymore by its creators. Due to this and the complexity of the code, it has been removed from official Debian and Ubuntu repositories. I like xmms, I'll keep on using it. The new alternatives were very very buggy when I tried them. So I use the good old xmms.


Someone (not sure who) has released a different build that keeps an icon in the task list...
Do you know how to contact this person and eventually get the patch?
Funny I thought about the same thing yesterday. Creating a top level app that goes in the tasklist. I'll make some test, I'm not very good in hildon specific stuffs.

Hum... the vorbis decoder has not been changed since some time.
Ogg decoders are always more cpu intensive than mp3 decoders. I just tried one ogg and the cpu is higher but still very low, and it played perfectly with several other apps running.
I have no real idea and the fact that I'm not running os2007 doesn't help. Can you try to reinstall some packages? (in a shell as root)
apt-get remove xmms*
apt-get autoremove
rm -rf /home/user/.xmms

apt-get install xmms
Try without any plugin first, with esd.

KotCzarny made a newer build which fixed the open file dialog. I added an icon into the task list.

Hum I just saw the post from KotCzarny . I have no clue about what problem there is with gtk dialogs.. also dunno really about the problem with open file dialog. Never saw any problems as far as I can remember.. unless it's internationalization.

I'll try to see how the taskbar thing works and integrate it in this build.

ps: if people experience bugs, please send me a PM

(I have no idea if you fixed in your newer builds, so sorry if you have done)

The desktop thing is pretty easy, enable window decorations and just insert some of the lines from my desktop file into your xmms desktop file (things like startupwmclass). Look at the script too and steal the variable that is exported.

[free]

Ah yes! True!!!
The open dialog appears behind. I got used to it because i'm most of the time using xmms with only the title bar. But it's a pain that's true..

Thanks a lot qwerty12, I'll correct all these things and upgrade to the latest xmms upstream.

Just an FYI, I'm using the Free build and not the KotKrazy build and my dialog window opens in front of the player just fine. Is it because I'm running this from Konsole in KDE?

I also do notice that when I launch XMMS from the menu in Maemo I get the dialog window behind the player window as in Qwerty12's pic.

[free]

I guess so. I've tried kde and openbox wm and did not have any window problem.

Hum window decoration is pretty awfull. I'll have to choose between this and leaving as it is now.. or maybe making a higher level app that calls the xmmsctrl trick.

[dubwise]

Sweet.
Today's update puts the file open dialogue in front.
Thank you, free.

Anybody know how to get relative playlists to work?
I have a million winamp playlists, formatted as
\tunes\artistdirectoryname\songname.mp3
or
..\tunes\artistdirectoryname\songname.mp3
These work under Windows or Rockbox as long as they're on the same drive as the MP3s.
Obviously I need to swap the unix/ for the Windows\.
I can make it work if I do
/media/mmc1/tunes/artistdirectoryname/songname.mp3
but I want it to work in either N800 card slot.
My unix syntax skills are completely lacking.

[free]

Did you check in options:
Use \ as directory delimiter?

edit:
checked, it worked, example of .pls:

[playlist]
NumberOfEntries=2
File1=..\Electronique\00-octogen_-_cside_(d_beat_remix_by_silicon).mp3
File2=..\Electronique\05 - Fred Wesley & The Horny Horns - Four Play.mp3

Here's the changelog:


xmms (1:1.2.10+20070601-1-maemo.11.n800) unstable; urgency=low

* Removed second argument check in postinst
[ KotCzarny ]
* Make new windows child
[ Terrence Fleury ]
* Desktop file is in hildon now


It still uses 1.2.10 from xmms team and probably I'll stick to this one, which works. I still haven't seen really an added value on the 1.2.11.

Awww, man, you spoiled all my fun.
I was just about to go back through my DOS archives,
looking for a copy of MultiEdit, because I was pretty sure
it would globally search and replace across a bunch of files.
I was looking forward to it, too.

Anyway, totally works.

[vinc17]

I've just tried xmms (version 1.2.10+20070601-1-maemo.11.n800) and played an ogg file, but I can't see the accented characters! What should I do?

[free]

As said IN THE FIRST POST, it has been removed from this xmms.

Now, I just rebuild, changed a few settings and get partial results, needs more testing. I think the tablet (libc?) is not properly configured for utf8. Maybe simply a font missing. If anybody has played with utf8 on the tablet, (s)he can send me PM to help me get this quicker.

There's nothing about this in the first post.

The tablet is properly configured. In fact, UTF-8 is the only available locale on it, and any standard application works correctly. I think that the problem is that xmms uses the obsolete GTK1, which seems to use bitmap fonts.

[free]

Hum yes, I realized I removed this info from the first thread sorry.
And in fact the tests I did concerning utf8 were wrong, I just checked again and that's true, utf8 is working.
I'll look into this for the next build. I also want accented caracters.

Which skin is that in the screenshot?

Which skin is that in the screenshot?

"Almond_steel". It's available in the "xmms-skins-others" package.

[free]

I've put the few patches on my server
[]
xmms is usable, still there would be a lot of improvements possible for the tablets but I just do not have the time/interest to maintain anything. Unfortunatly.
I will maybe upload it to extras but anybody can also do this, feel free to do it.

[XTC]

This would be perfect imho way of getting s3m, mod, it and even umx support - by xmms-modplug module. Unfortunately there is no such one avaliable.
If Free stopped working for xmms adoption on tablets (thank You for Your work Free) maybe someone else could add this plugin.

Okay, I'm not positive this will work for you since I already installed xmms and can't remember the exact way I did it. I'm going to assume that you have a way to become root (http://wiki.maemo.org/Root_access) AND you added the "debfarm new" repository (http://gronmayer.com/it/dl.php?id=241) to Application Manager. Make sure you are NOT running the Application Manager for the following. Launch xterm and enter these commands.


sudo gainroot # or whatever method you use to become root
apt-get install xmmsctrl xmms=1:1.2.10+20070601-1-maemo.10.n800 xmms-skins=0.6-1
exit


Hopefully that will get you started, and then you can install other plugins using the Application Manager since I don't think they were updated recently.

Well, now I'm flummoxed. Okay, here's a horribly roundabout method. Download the v.10 .deb and install it with dpkg. You'll probably get a bunch of missing dependency errors, which you can fix with apt-get. So something like this:


sudo gainroot
wget http://p.quinput.eu/debfarm/pool/xmms_1.2.10+20070601-1-maemo.10.n800_armel.deb
dpkg -i xmms_1.2.10+20070601-1-maemo.10.n800_armel.deb
# Probably lots of missing dependencies
apt-get install # the list of missing dependencies


It's an ugly brute-force method, but should get you started. You'll have to do something similar with the xmms-skins package since I noticed that the latest version is also forbidden.

Which visuals are you trying to use? I don't have any visualizations installed other than the two that come with the base xmms install (Blur Scope and Simple spectrum analyzer), but both of those work okay.

I'm referring to the interface visuals such as the time left on the current track and the Spectrum display below it. Not doing anything for me. Shows the track playing and the length of the track. That's it.

I'm referring to the interface visuals such as the time left on the current track and the Spectrum display below it. Not doing anything for me. Shows the track playing and the length of the track. That's it.

IIRC, this is caused by an incorrect setting for the Output Plugin. Open the "Options" by clicking on the letter "O" on the main screen and select "Preferences". Click the first tab "Audio I/O Plugins". In the lower part of the window, verify that the Output Plugin is set to "eSound Output Plugin". (NOT ALSA.)

Hi,

Hi
Yes. It was the intended OS at the time. And no dependency information change so it should still.

On my N770 with OS2008HE I have "illegal instruction" when I try xmms (with the user770 repos branch)

Thanks for any help!
As they were some benefits of using the HW floating point unit only present on the n800, I made two seperate branches. Actually, fully seperate, eventhough probably not all dependencies will benefit/use from the VFP (I did not check this, the only idea that came to my mind to do this was to dump the assembly code to search for VFP pattern).

But now I realize that it's not ok if somebody does a mistake and first downloads some parts from n800, sees its not working on his 770 and then installs the 770 version (probably only manually will work due to package naming..) . Dependencies might still be from n800 repo and this will give "illegal instruction" on an 770.

Can you check if you have some n800 stuffs?
dpkg -l | grep n800

I've never done a multi arch repo and probably there are things missing.
Can you also give me the result of this command on an 770?
dpkg --print-architecture



As for the uploading everything to garage, I've given up. Too many dependencies to upload, every dependency means more potential conflict, upstream not maintained, gtk1 vs gtk2 , blablabla... :)
The binary and needed source diff are anyway available. Anybody willing to upload it to maemo can contact me in PM if needed.

[belese]

Thanks for your reply!

You're right for the N800 stuff: I first installed using the "user" branch and after having seen it was a mistake I switched to "user770". Unfortunately, I can't try your command as I already flashed my device to install OS2007 and try xmms on it.

I'll inform you about the installation on N770/OS2007

[edit after flashing to OS2007]

Well, if I find a page on maemo.org that tells me which libc is installed on the OS2007, I could help. Something like packages.debian.org.

Anyway,

Depends: libc6 (>= 2.5.0-1) but 2.3.5cs2005q3.2-5.osso12 is to be installed

You are not using the scratchbox repository on your device are you? I'm a bit surprised about the version number of libc6 which looks roughly as old as debian etch version. Did you add manually some repositories?

Can you do this:
apt-cache policy libc6
apt-cache policy libgtk1.2
apt-get -s install libgtk1.2 <--- this is a "installation simulation", nothing will be installed.

In any case, do not upgrade your libc6. You will probably end up in trouble.

Thanks for your help!

Sorry belese, I suggest you using another player.
I was wrong, I mixed OS2007 with chinook. Only chinook has glibc 2.5.
It would be possible to port an older xmms though.

[belese]

OK, thanks.

I think I will switch to OS2008. I use the tablet only for music, and I would like to use xmms.

However, OS2008 is slow on N770. Do you think it is possible to compile xmms for OS2007 with scratchbox? If I know I can do that, I can take some time to try it.

[belese]

Hi,

I compiled everything (applying xmms patches for the tablet) under scratchbox/bora, and finally I get a segfault at runtime. Did you experienced this?

Any way to adapt this plug-inXMMS VU-meter plugin Version >= 0.9.2 (http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Analog++VUmeter+Skin+%27s?content=49127) for maemo os2008?

Is there a reason why there's no port for XMMS for the N900?

Just recently installed version 1:1.2.10+20070601-1. Quite impressed! Here is a screenshot of it on my trusty old N800:

I went through all of the included skins and found this one, Helix-Sawfish" to be the most readable.

Did anyone ever find a way to get an entry in the task-list for xmms? I tried the instructions in qwerty12's posts (http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=167332&postcount=213) from this thread, but it didn't quite work. Xmms still launched, but no entry in the task list appeared. Some of the files he had mentioned that should be deleted didn't even exist with this build, so I guess this latest build is somehow different than the "KotCzarny" build he mentioned. I'm not sure where to get that build or if it'd be a good one to use at this point anyways.

I'm hoping just one person here can tell me how to using the scrobbler feature.

I enabled the plugin and typed my username and password from my last.fm account.

I have no clue what to do next.

Could someone please help? :)

I have never used that plugin, but my understanding is that it simply uploads your listening history to your last.fm account. If you log in to your last.fm account (via a web browser), you should see your xmms listening history on your main user page.

[Joseph9560]

seems like nice player and yes indeed would love to have it in my n900 as well.

I just signed up with last.fm yesterday so bare with me on this. :)

I did play a song on Xmms, and yeah, it showed up as recently played on the website.

My understanding is that you are making your own personal radio station to stream from with this site.

Like with Vagalume, it streams music from your favorite artists and you can say whether you like a certain song or not.

Does this plug-in not allow for streaming, it only tracks what music you're playing that you already own?

The whole point of last.fm I thought was to find new music.

I hope I made some sense on this. :)

[Addison]

Okay. Simple question.

Can last.fm even be played in Xmms?

Sorry that I'm still confused on this. :(

Anyway, here's a quick little trick that can be done.

Change the .wsz custom skin file extension for Xmms that you use to .zip.

Simple unzip this and you can then change the graphics.

It's super easy to do. :)

[Addison]

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before, but Xmms can actually use Winamp skins.

I never knew that.

Very nice. :)

[misterc]

amarok, anyone? preferably version 1.4.10 :o

[Addison]

Anyone able to get the cover art fully working?

I can't seem to get consistent results.

Do I inject the album art into each mp3 or do I put them all in a special folder?

What's a good Windows XP program to use for this?
