Re: artsd ogle

2002-11-22 Thread Peter J. Blok
Hi Chris,

Thanks for the tip. It works, except the sound is completely distorted.

Without artsd running, it is ok. I'll see if I can put in the aRts plugin.

Thx,

Peter

 Does Ogle have an aRts plugin? If so, make sure you're using that.
 Otherwise, startup ogle using artsdsp:

 artsdsp ogle

 Artsdsp will act as a proxy ensuring that ogle can access a /dev/dsp.

  My question: does artsd need to keep /dev/dsp open all the time? Should

 Yes. It's a sound server.

  ogle be able to open /dev/dsp at the same time and not get an error while
  opening it?

 I'm pretty sure not, unless you're sound card drivers are able to do some
 special tricks. I think some of the Creative SoundBlaster Live drivers on
 Linux allow multiple apps to access /dev/dsp, but most drivers do not.

Hi Lauri,

When I saw you e-mail, I thought this is it. But it doesn't seem to work. When 
I do the sysctls, the artsd won't play any sound anymore, even on /dev/dsp. 
ogle does display lots of write errors.

Thx,

Peter

 No, you can tell it to exit when idle, arts aware applications will restart
 it if they want it.

 More useful, configure arts to not just exit when idle, but to also use a
 different device than /dev/dsp when it's on.

artsd ogle

2002-11-21 Thread Peter J. Blok
Hi,

I am trying to make ogle work, but it bails out /dev/dsp being busy. Turns out 
that artsd has it still open. When I kill artsd, ogle works fine.

It used to work very well, but (I think) since I did a portupgrade from 
arts-1.0.3 to arts-1.0.4_1 it stopped working.

My question: does artsd need to keep /dev/dsp open all the time? Should ogle 
be able to open /dev/dsp at the same time and not get an error while opening 
it?

I am not a member of this list, so please reply to me as well.

Peter
