Hi!

iTunes eat's to much of my ram and cpu.... so I wanted to use something lighter -> mpg321.

Problmes started almost from the beginning. At first - I was able to make a libao package, but ebuild file is incorrect (or maybe I'm missing something?). I created my version of ebuild file (you can see it on gentoo-bugzilla : https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=85406 ). After this I was able to compile mpg321.

Ok. This was to long - sorry ;-)

I'm not using esd - I want to use CoreAudio system of my mac osx (Panther 10.3.8), but when I'm trying to play anything I got this:
Code:
tlap:~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Prodigy/Always Outnumbered Never Outgunned troll$ mpg321 -zZvb8192 *mp3

No default libao driver available.
Code:

in /etc/libao.conf I have only one line: default_driver=macosx .

Can anybody tell me how to enable sound? I think I'm missing something simple, but I cannot say what :(

ok..... some news..... a bad ones :(

I edit portage-profile and unmask esd USE flag. Next - I succesfully compiled esound (0.2.35) [I saw in darwinports that they have this package].

I added LDFLAGS="-framework CoreAudio" to my make.conf (I found that on darwinports too) for time of esound compilation. Next I reemerged libao.

Next problems:
- libao doesn't add .dylib postfix to plugins names (same as for libs names)
- I can't start mpg321.... :( [edit: I can, but problems weren't solved, with respect to my previous post]

I started esound deamon like this:
Code:
esd -d CoreAudio -tcp -public -nobeeps -trust
and esound give me this:
Code:
tlap:~ root# esd -d CoreAudio -tcp -public -nobeeps -trust
- using device CoreAudio
using device Built-in Audio for output:
        with sample rate 44100.000000, 2 channels and 32-bit sample
using device Built-in Audio for input:
        with sample rate 44100.000000, 2 channels and 32-bit sample
I know it's not legal to compile it (atleast for now), but maybe somebody tried to do this??

Regards,
Przemek

ok. semi-solved!! :D

libao-0.8.6 is broken!! compilation of 0.8.5 solves my problem. :)

after my plays:
- 0.8.6 is not adding postfix to names
- plugin names are resolved badly (-o macosx gives me macosx2; -o macos gives me macos02; wtf??)
- esd works, but sound is very noisy.... but it works! ;-)

anyway - first part is acompilshed. I don't have to use f***ing iTunes anymore!!! (sorry - is iTunes eat so many memory and cpu on your systems?).

PS. Somebody have working version of xmms/bmp for mac osx?

Regards,
Przemek
