Can't get Module music to work in MOC

Submitted by Warma on Wed, 2010-07-21 11:03

Forums:

The feature list suggests that MOC can play MOD music (.MOD, .XM, .IT, .MTM, .S3M etc) as long as you have the libmodplug library installed. However, this does not seem to be the case, as attempting to play any music module results simply in silence. However, MOC correctly reads the song length and title from these files, showing this information in the status bar. Just that the sound is missing. I am fairly confident that this bug is isolated to libmodplug, as for example SID files (C64 music file, libsidplay) work fine.

I am using 2.5.0 alpha 4 as provided by Debian testing. Version of libmodplug is 0.8.8-2. Can anyone reproduce this, or does module music play fine for you?

Thank you in advance.

Yes, I can reproduce the bug.I changed libmodplug from 0.8.8.1 to 0.8.7 and works perfectly (gentoo ~AMD64).

Allright, so it is a bug.

Is there any hope of getting it fixed in the near future?
