[SlimDevices: Plugins] POLL for AlienBBC listeners with Ubuntu Dapper
this is a poll for those who stream AlienBBC on a Ubuntu Dapper box. Given that Mplayer pre7 hangs after 4'15" and it's the only package available for Dapper: 1. you are still in the mud 2. found somewhere a pre8 or rc1 package for Dapper (please provide link) 3. compiled from source because you're a geek 4. moved to Ubuntu 6.10 or 7.04 Needless to say, I'm on number one. cheers, -Gian -- gian gian's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6702 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32861 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] POLL for AlienBBC listeners with Ubuntu Dapper
My answer is #4, but I got the stopping at 4'15" effect after my upgrade from dapper as the repository for edgy still seemed to have only mplayer 1.07. My solution was to do 'apt-get update', and 'apt-get install mplayer' in a terminal which got me a copy of 1.08. After that the problem went away. Not sure if this would work with the standard dapper repositories but might be worth a shot. davep -- davep davep's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=61 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32861 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] POLL for AlienBBC listeners with Ubuntu Dapper
I'm not a geek and I managed to go to RC1. I did the job with little problems. You must mess with the operating system for maximum joy. ./configure --enable-gui --enable-largefiles --enable-menu --prefix=/usr--confdir=/etc/mplayer make make install Is the basis for things, but you must make sure all the required files are in place and i had some problems with permissions of folders. The latest file for mplayer is on the mplayer website. http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html. the site has a readme and extra instructions. I have moved to edgy.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] POLL for AlienBBC listeners with Ubuntu Dapper
ok, I went for a complete reinstall, and now with Edgy I got Mplayer pre8, and BBC is streaming more than a mere 4'15"... Luckily I had set the OS on its own partition, so all music and photos remain unaffected from this upgrade. -- gian gian's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=6702 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=32861 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
