[OpenIndiana-discuss] sound juicer doesn't propose mp3 as output?

2011-05-09 Thread solarg

 hello all,
i have oi_148. I want to extract my own personal cds on mp3 player, but 
sound juicer doesn't propose this format. However, mp3 exists in 
Preferences-Profiles, with this Gstreamer pipeline:
audio/x-raw-int,rate=44100,channels=2 ! lame name=enc mode=0 
vbr-quality=6 ! id3v2mux


but i'm unable to select it.

Is there something missing?

thanks in advance for help,

gerard

Yes, the lame encoder package, wh/is not available in openindiana
repositories due to license and patent issues.  Options include 1)
switching to less patent encumbered such as ogg/vobis, 2) hunt down the
lame source bits and compile yourself, 3) there used to be a couple
unofficial repositories located in countries with less anal patent laws
that provided various patent encumbered multimedia related packages, but
that was back in OpenSolaris days and I'm not sure if they're presently
extant, and 4) switch to different platform, e.g. Slackware/Salix that
is less concerned about being sued and bold enough to provides prebuilt
packages.

You can try here:

http://solaris.homeunix.com/

They provided gstreamer codecs and other packages.  I'm not sure what 
the current state is.

That would include the master (UK-based!) OpenIndiana repository, wouldn't it?

I hate to say it; but, as a last ditch effort, you could also install the
CSW repository under /opt from either Blastwave or OpenCSW.

Hate to say because the CSW repository can have a fair bit of duplication
of existing packages; that, are dependencies to what you may be installing.
Also, these repositories use the old PKG format, and are not IPS.

Hmmm, just checking BlastWave, it looks like they're introducing a new,
stripped-down, more maintained package set around the /opt/bw directory.  (
https://www.blastwave.org/wiki/display/BWSTACK/BWTree+Release+Announcement)

But, Blastwave is still providing a CSW repository, so if you're going to
try one of these, make sure to create a backup/alternate boot environment,
so you can revert to a clean-state, and/or revert to another CSW
repository.  The CSW repository will make additions and modifications to
files in your existing system configuration directories.  (ie. /etc/opt/csw
 /var/opt/csw); so a clean boot environment, is probably the best way to
manage your evaluation between implementing the two CSW repositories.

Of course, compiling from source would be required, if none of the sources
of potential packages identified in this thread work-out for you.

Regards,

I'm unsure of UK laws in this regard, but would be interested if someone
more knowledgeable would provide clarification.  I pretty much use Flac
and ogg/vorbis myself but it would be nice to have mp3 encoder, video
codes, etc. available.  I think the free Fluendo mp3 codecs actually
sound a bit better than the gstreamer defaults commonly available and
they also have for fee video codecs but I think their stuff is limited
to decoding.

P.S.; Thank you for not top posting :)  Seems to be an ever increasing
nasty habit these days.
