General discussion

hi all,

My moc cannot play .wma files. It says "no audio stream in file". Does anyone get the same problem?

I've got moc 2.4.4 and ffmpeg20081220 installed. My system is archlinux

Thanks in advance.

According to http://wiki.xiph.org/index.php/MIME_Types_and_File_Extensions, files with ogg/vorbis data can alo be found in .oga file. I have discovered this yesterday as sound-juicer create now by default .oga file for ogg/vorbis encoded music.

I have cooked a quick patch against latest svn ( 2138 ) on http://www.zarb.org/~misc/moc.oga_support.diff , and I have tested it, it work fine.

According to the wiki of xiph.org, we can also use .oga to store speex content and ogg/flac, but trying to share the extension between the various plugins doesn't work, I am looking at the issue.

I guess the proper solution would be to check the file with can_decode method before running the decoder ?

Hi all and thanks for being here ... and the most exelent software MOC :-D
I'm kinda new to linux -only a few months now- and definately could use some help with installation, as i dont seem to have a clue on this one
I discovered MOC when i was using #!Crunchbang linux, (installed by default) but that OS is a bit too advanced for me so now i'm using PCLOS 2008 gnome edition.
can ne1 step me thru the install process or direct me to already existing instructions?
thanks

OpenBSD chev 4.4 GENERIC#1021 i386
moc stable 2.4.4 compiled from source with gcc (GCC) 3.3.5
DECODER_PLUGINS=' mp3 vorbis flac sndfile ffmpeg'
netstreams also enabled with curl
dependencies were installed from the openbsd binary packages at ftp://ftp5.usa.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.4/packages/i386/

First issue: All of the toggle elements remain bold even when disabled (SHUFFLE, REPEAT, NEXT). What i mean is that I can enable/disable them yet the text remains bold either way so if I look at the interface I have no way to know what is toggled.

Second issue: If I try to switch from pcm to the master mixer using the 'x' key, mocp interface just crashes. The mocp server continues to run and play the music, but even if i reattach to it it just crashes again with the same message. The only way to get the client interface to run again is to kill the server process and run mocp again. Here is the message after crash:

assertion "value >= 0 && value <= 100" failed: file "interface_elements.c", line 3325, function "iface_set_mixer_value" |
| || Abort trap (core dumped)

I'm not proficient with gdb.. but here is what we get:
chev# gdb mocp.core
GNU gdb 6.3
This GDB was configured as "i386-unknown-openbsd4.4"..."/root/mocp.core": not in executable format: File format not recognized

If it matters, this behavior remains the same whether ssh'd into the console or running locally and also whether using ksh or zsh. And yes, I know this system is old and slow but it really seems to work great with moc other than the client interface crash behavior. I have no trouble playing flac, mp3, ogg from a mounted nfs share. I tried to install 2.50-alpha3 just to see if therer were any difference but I could not get past make due to various compile errors which I am not knowledgable enough to troubleshoot.

Thanks for moc and for any help :)

Hello everybody, I'm using gentoo linux and mocp, but I had a question:
1. On console, my mocp's background color is blue
2. On terminal(urxvt), my mocp's background color is yellow.

How to configure mocp background color?

Thanks all!!

Manage MOC via browser - it is possible ? Some like phpMp ? Thanks for answer :)

Hi,

as seen before, I was having a problem with playing .wma files on gentoo. Following is all the information:

Changes to make it work:

< len = avcodec_decode_audio (data->enc, (int16_t *)avbuf,
---
> len = avcodec_decode_audio2 (data->enc, (int16_t *)avbuf,


As it seems, the latest (or at least the version I have) version of ffmpeg doesn't have the avcodec_decode_audio function anymore, but a version avcodec_decode_audio2, which must be called with the data_size argument preset to the buffer size.

This way it works perfectly for me! I didn't find out since what version the original function isn't available anymore, so maybe there is the need for an ifdef depending on the ffmpeg version one has...

Hello!
Is it possible to merge add_file and add_directory in one instruction (something like "add_media")?
Thank you :-)
