Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

Hi. There's this Maemo ogg-vorbis support in garage but when trying to install it comes this incompatible package message. How this is meant to be installed? I'm totally confused about these N800 packages which can not be installed but are meant for the N800! This is not the first one.

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

Same problem here.

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

No consolation, but it helps me not to feel all alone.

I already have ogg-support installed, is this causing a conflict preventing the maemo-ogg installation, do you think?

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

As posted in kagu thread, just enter red-pill mode before installing - it works!

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

Thanks for posting the suggestion. Trouble is that I am in red pill mode already and it doesn't work.

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

Huh, the incompatible package message is given because no 'user' flag had been set in the .deb. Did you try to remove all old ogg packages? Mine installed right after deleting the old package and switched to red-pill mode. Started working after first reboot, though.

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

Okei, I have been using red pill mode and in settings there is this "show all files" unmarked and when I did checked it these packages did install just well. Could it be that if you have this option app-managar won't install all packages? I have it unmarked because app-manager is faster to use this way, if I choose to show all files app-manager gets very slow, very very slow.

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

My Application Manager/Tools/Settings/ Have all items marked. So that was not the issue for me.

When I uninstalled Ogg-Support then MaemoOggVorbisSupport fully installed. However both Kagu and UKMP crash.

So I have uninstalled MaemoOggVorbisSupport, reinstalled Ogg-Support and UKMP runs again as normal.

Kagu of course does not recognise my ogg files which is why I had hopes for MaemoOggVorbisSupport.

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

Rebski, What happens if you try to start kagu/ukmp from xterm? And what's reported in appmanager logs?
Markku, it was an issue of mogg package, don't bother too much about it, you can just turn red-pill mode off after installing - it's better, for the safety of your NIT!

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

All I can say is that UKMP loaded and scanned the files, when I selected an Album/Track it froze, locked up the device and required a reboot.

Kagu began by scanning the files and, when finished, closed itself down.

I am very sorry but I know nothing about xterm, it is not installed on my device. I assume it is a console but I never type cli instructions.

Having said that, however, if my experience is helpful to you in resolving the issues then I shall give it a shot and report back the results you request. A word of warning, I do need serious handholding in order to do so.

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

Now I have finally installed packages but what the heck: Kilikali won't play oggs. Not surprised about this: Canola either won't play oggs (too much to hope), Mediaplayer starts playing but only 20 seconds and then switch to next song. What was the main goal for this support packages? Before this Kilikali played oggs just fine and was only player that I used for oggs. Has anyone noticed Kiliplayer to stop playing oggs? Seems like it's time to get back where I was before this ogg-support package, oh boy this is sometimes too complicated.

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

I agree, it should be simpler than this. Unfortunately, I don't have the answer.

I did install mplayer (and kmplayer a GUI front end) which does play ogg vorbis (even without the ogg vorbis libraries, I think it is statically linked in). And that is what I am using to play Ogg Vorbis. A simple solution.

I hope this helps,

Craig....

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

I was hoping that the packages were going to allow ogg to work with the default media player, but it doesn't seem to be the case.

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

Thanks, I'll try that later. This is what I did: uninstalled the Mogg packages and reinstalled the previous ogg-vorbis support so Kilikali is working again. I'm using Kilikali with Mediatomb and it's been easy to use also. Mplayer is installed on my N800 and I will try that also so thank you for pointing that to me. It's good to know you can have support.

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

I had some issues also trying to install Mogg. I had to uninstall ogg-support to be able to install Mogg. So now I have Ogg played in Kagu but no longer with Exaile ... what a mess !! Can someone at Nokia just add a standard ogg support for all applications (starting with osso-media player) to fix all this ?

My question now is : is it possible for me to have both Mogg and Ogg-support installed at the same time (so that I can still have both players running Oggs) ?

Thanks for your help !

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

The default media player seems to have hardcoded mime types it supports, so it's not trivial to add ogg to that list.

I'll try harder with the OS2008.

Re: Maemo Ogg-vorbis support installing problem
 

Not really. They both install the same Gstreamer plugin.
