Bug reports

Hello! I use Arch Linux (x86_64 Linux 3.18.1-3-ck), Music On Console (version 2.5.0, revision 2668) from official repository, My hardware is ASUS Xonar Essence STX. For some reason none of the moc's volume controls work (like ,. or <>), nothing happens (no "bad command" messages either), I cannot change volume level through console either (mocp -v 20 and such) so I have to resort to changing volume levels with alsamixer. This problem's been bugging me for a while and I am willing to provide more info if necessary! Thank you in advance!

Hi,

I'm running mocp 2.5.0-beta1 on Ubuntu 14.04.

When playing MP3 files the playback is stuck at a high speed, like if I were constantly seeking forward using the right arrow key.

Thanks.

I've tried this on several computers of the x86_64 variety, all running a currently up-to-date Arch Linux. JACK is speaking to ALSA, and I've tried it with a number of sound cards from built-in laptop cards and M-Audio Delta PCI cards. It's kind of intermittent, but it happens more often than not. I haven't spotted a pattern yet-- so far it's happened on MP3, vorbis and FLAC files of varying bitrates and lengths.

Here's how I recreate it:

1) start playing a file
2) pause the file
3) stop the file using the command line "--stop" switch

At that point, further commands hang, and the curses interface, if open, does not respond to input. MoC continues to appear in other JACK applications (notably qjackctl and patchage) until I kill the moc server. I can restart it without having to restart JACK.

I've managed to get it to hang using the curses interface alone, but it happens with more regularity using command line options.

I started working with the binary package from the Arch repository, but I've recompiled moc to include the debug options. The debug output of an instance, from the start right up until I have to kill it, is available at http://sam.vis.nu/crap/moc.debug/ .

I know it's a weird one, and I only noticed it because my use case for moc is kind of strange, but I thought I should report it.

Thanks!

I was trying to post a patch in the contrib forum, but it won't let me.

Hi, I noticed the behavior this week.
When I open a FLAC file then MOC crashes with the message:
------------
$> mocp
FATAL_ERROR: Can't receive value from the server!
$> echo $?
2
------------

In the syslog appears this:
------------
kernel: [ 8826.777981] traps: mocp[9286] general protection ip:7fa202480f3e sp:7fa1f91939b0 error:0 in libavutil.so.52.66.100[7fa202470000+3e000]
------------

With gdb nothing interesting:
------------
[Inferior 1 (process 6408) exited with code 02]
------------

Obviusly the problem is with the libavutil package. I've Debian testing but with the deb-multimedia repos then libav really is a simlink to the ffmpeg package (which I prefer).

Something with the same problem or it is a mess with the libraries in my computer?

Greetings lads!
So i tried to play a MP3 file over the network from my home server. It somehow failed to read the data, crashed and locked up. I then tried to restart Moc, but it fails to start the server back up.

I have then tried to uninstall Moc, clean off residual files from it, and reinstalled it again, several times. But with no luck. Here is what it spits out if i give it a mocp -D

And if i just type mocp and hit return, it gives back this:

Trying JACK...
Trying ALSA...

I know ALSA works, because i do get audio out from other software, and the hardware shows up just fine.

How do i solve this bug? I would really like to get it going again. Simply because it's just lovely when it works.

cheers!

Hi,
I noticed a small chance of free problem in the "io_curl.c:
write_callback() relloc "s->curl.buf", memcpy after change the var "s->curl.buf_fill".
but other thread is checking "s->curl.buf_fill" var.
Is it may cause erroneous free in the read_from_buffer() in the code "free (s->curl.buf)"?

Matt.

Hi, whenever I see a song filename that has non-english characters, it appears with random characters like "A" with a ~ on it or a copyright symbol for example. The folders names are not affected by it, only files.
