Someone else already mentioned having to remove the Mirror application, which has this dependency, in order to upgrade Extra Decoders. I found I also had to remove Mappero.

I was able to reinstall both Mappero and Mirror after the update.

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

There seems to be a really weird conflict when this particular dependency is not versioned and there are other packages depending on it, I still cannot find anything unusual. I will check once again when I have more time.

By the way, I've updated my signature yet again, thanks for your kind donations!

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

Hi,
I have manually installed (x-term, i have a faulty wireless connection at the moment and just downloaded via usb all the files from packages) all the dependencies needed for the decoder. After installation and restart, my media player will not play any files, I can scroll through my list of music, but none of them will play.

I have apt-get purge all the gstreamers, decoders-support, ogg-support. The problem still persists... please help..

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

I found the problem, stupid of me.
I installed libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.23-git305-0maemo5+0m5 from (PR1.0).
Re-installed libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.25-0maemo4+0m5 all problems solved...

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

Hi there,

I have a problem. I installed EDS, and worked everything fine, exept the flac meta data reading in the Media Player. Later I solved this problem (re-encode the files with dbpoweramp and mp3tag), so from that point I saw the artist names, albums and tracks and album covers.
Yesterday the little yellow button said there is an update for ogg-support, so I installed it. After the installation when I opened the Media Player it said there is no music/video files..

I uninstalled the extra-decoders support, then the ogg-support, then I reinstalled the eds (with the built-in ogg-support), and I got my files back in MP. BUT THE FLAC FILES ARE NOT THERE AGAIN.. :(
I tried to re-encode the files again with dbpoweramp and mp3tag, but no use.
When I open the files from file manager it's playable but it says unknown artist/unknown song.

I'm out of ideas...
Please help!

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

I think there is an issue with one of the versions of ogg-support. I noticed this when I did a fresh install not so long ago. Which versions of EDS and ogg support do you have?

I have EDS 4.0 and OGG 1.0.6~rc1. I think it was 1.05 doesn't work, you may have to enable extras-devel to get 1.06.

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

I have exactly the same version of eds and ogg-support like you have.
But after two hours of doing nothing successful I convert my flac files to mp3. :D And of course it works. Wuhu. -.-

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

Recently upgraded ogg-support and all my music and photos disappeared from the mediaplayer and photo thing.
Solved by deleting the tracker db.

Code:

rm -r ~/.cache/tracker

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

OK, I have installed EDS 0.4 with ogg support included and yesterday I updated ogg from 1.0.5 to 1.0.7 rc1 and now I have problems with custom alarm tones. When I choose an song (mp3) for alarm tone clock just crashes - Internal error Aplication Clock Closed - and I can't change it. Only works default tones. And every time when I try to reinstall decoders support it comes with ogg support 1.0.7rc1. Any help please?

I downgraded ogg-support from xterminal.

Code:

apt-get install --reinstall ogg-support=1.0.5

After that I got notice that I need to run apt-get autoremove to remove packages gstreamer0.10-av, gstreamer0.10-maemo-xiph and tracker-extractor-flac. I removed these packages and everything is normal again. :D

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

King thank you very much, I downgraded ogg support but I should to uninstall these packages manually gstreamer0.10-av and gstreamer0.10-maemo-xiph.

And now my Robert Miles - Children works again yeahh :)

kolos

2011-05-11 16:57

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

You have Robert Miles, good taste, but I would listen this song before sleeping, not for waking me up. I need something louder, something like 2 Unlimited - Twilight Zone. :)

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

You need lullaby before sleep :D
Similar to him I have also Kai Tracid - 4 just 1 day for alarm tone. Reason for these songs are that loud music frighten myself LOOL and these two are moderately loud. But I have really loud songs of course

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

yasirrfc, did you also uninstall gstreamer0.10-av, gstreamer0.10-maemo-xiph and tracker-extractor-flac.

Try first

Code:

apt-get autoremove

if doesn't work, then run

Code:

apt-get remove --purge gstreamer0.10-maemo-xiph gstreamer0.10-av tracker-extractor-flac

All should be written in single line.

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

You can do it without any concerns and you can always go back (installing / reinstalling packages).

Code:

apt-get install --reinstall packagename

EDIT: Before running any of these commands that I posted, you need to gain root access, so first run:

Code:

sudo gainroot

Command "sudo gainroot" (or just "root") works only if you have rootsh installed!

yasirrfc did you finish it?

Dante son of Sparda

2011-05-11 22:05

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

If you have failed to do that than try my steps:

0. sudo gainroot
1. in Xterm do this: apt-get install --reinstall ogg-support=1.0.5
2. if you don't get a notice for apt-get autoremove like 'kolos' said to remove these packages gstreamer0.10-av, gstreamer0.10-maemo-xiph and tracker-extractor-flac
3. than you need to remove them manually from FAM in Advanced category.

4. I think this is the simplest way how to fix it.

Extras-devel enabled? Then yes, problem will re-occur.

Yep, you will have problems again.

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

I'm downgrading ogg-support:
apt-get install --reinstall ogg-support=1.0.5
apt-get remove --purge gstreamer0.10-maemo-xiph gstreamer0.10-av tracker-extractor-flac

after that flac files are played, but media player does not show metadata.

fix it only after:

apt-get install --reinstall ogg-support=1.0.6~rc1

Should be fixed in gstreamer0.10-av 0.5-2, but to be sure use 0.5-3.

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

I recently noticed that my N900 refused to play .flac files for me.

After removing Extras-devel and uninstalling ogg-support and decoders support, then reinstalling them, flac files work once again.

Let's hope that there soon will be a new release in Extras-devel which fixes this. However it is outrageous that you uploaded a broken package.

At least please test the basic usability before uploading it.

evan	2011-05-23 14:31

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

updated to today's gstreamer0.10-av 0.5-6.
flac files playing works again.
no more need for downgrading!

GreatGonzo

2011-05-23 23:32

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

can confirm it. flacs are playing now and seeking has been fixed. Would be nice if there would be 'official' announcements.
Also can the maintainer please comment on which packages this replaces e.g. which gstreamer packages can be removed. Or even better put this into the control file.

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

hi i keep getting this message when reverting back to a earlier version of ogg.
Could not get files by MIME type, Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.

i typed this to revert

apt-get install --reinstall ogg-support=1.0.5

it repeats the above message about 5 times and in the end ogg is still installed.
i'd unistalled prior due to the alarm clock alert problem then this morning i noticed a newer version of ogg like a div i installed it.
any idea's?

update :
looked up installed programs and ogg.1.0.5 was installed, never remembered all the notices showing before.

shall i continue with apt-get autoremove to remove packages gstreamer0.10-av, gstreamer0.10-maemo-xiph and tracker-extractor-flac.

evan	2011-05-26 14:02

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

I would enable the devel repository and update ogg-support without downgrading.
latest update does not have the alarm clock alert or any other problem that I can see.

corduroysack

2011-05-26 15:16

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

updating this morning is what brought the problem back.
i haven't needed to autoremove the other packages and the alarm problem has now disapeared.
will keep trying ogg updates when they occur and the problem is finally sorted.

Re: Extra Decoders Support for the N900

I've searched the thread and I have found 2 or 3 matches without any particular answer, so, here I'll ask:

Can someone download any new video (480p and down - mp4 won't play because is bigger than 800x480) in .flv from youtube and try to play using the EDS?

In my device it will just not work, will try to play and say that the media format is not valid. And I can't use other players because the main player is the only one that will catch the bluetooth requests (pause, next, prior) after locking the phone.

Here is an example of the type of file failing:
