I uploaded a "visible" version but hum.. for an unknown reason the upload to my repo corrupts the file. Maybe the proxy of my company that doesn't like xmms..
So xmms-scrobbler is displayed as "size mismatch".

Strange, it worked just before..

Onyros did you manage to install _from app manager_ ?

I don't have many Aif files but I thought AIF was a standard and therefore it didn't matter what program created it but thanks since now I won't expect it to play them.

Sondjata I think it won't work but try it:
As root:
cd /usr/lib/xmms/Input
wget http://debfarm.free.fr/nondeb/libaf.so

(or download the file manually and put it in /usr/lib/xmms/Input)

Restart xmms, try to play your file.

But from reports I see, doesn't look good..

Nope, installed through the terminal (apt).

It works well, it may have an impact on CPU usage (from around 65 CPU cycles on the ITT with the plugin disabled, to 115 CPU cycles with the plugin enabled)

thanks but it's not a big deal I just thought perhaps there was a problem with my install. Seeing as it's a feature not a bug I wont waste any more time trying to get it to work. the EQ on this thing rocks.

xmms-coverview doesn't work. Needs a bit of modification. I suggest to disable it I make a post in this thread.

Scrobbler works but doubles the cpu usage. I wonder why even when between songs..

Have a nice weekend!

Way cool.
I had no problems installing or playing mp3 files.

Many thanks,

I installed XMMS on my n810 and when I open the options menu (tapping the O or the upper-left corner of the window) none of the labels show up on anything. Opening the preferences window shows no text on the tabs or anywhere, all that shows are the key bindings in the options menu (e.g. Ctrl+P for preferences). Am I missing something? Also, why does the volume slider not work?

I figured out why xmms wasn't showing up in the Simple Launcher list. The .desktop file was in the wrong directory. This can be fixed fairly easily.

First, open an xterm and become root. Then
Code:
mv /usr/share/applications/xmms.desktop /usr/share/applications/hildon/
I haven't figured out how to make the icon "pretty". There is a xmms icon but it's not being used for some reason.

EDIT:

I came up with another idea. Rather than moving the xmms.desktop file from its default location, I decided to create a NEW .desktop file that calls xmmsctrl instead. That way, I can still launch xmms from Simple Launcher. But now after I minimize xmms, I can restore it by clicking on the same icon.

Here's what I did. I installed both xmms and xmmsctrl. Then I created a new file "/usr/share/applications/hildon/launchxmms.desktop" with the following contents.
Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=0.1
Type=Application
Name=Launch XMMS
Exec=/bin/sh -c "LC_MESSAGES=C LANG=C /usr/bin/xmmsctrl launch main 0 equalizer 0 play_list 0 main 1"
Icon=qgn_list_cp_soundset
Note: You will need to be root to put this file in the correct location. I chose a stupid little icon from OS2008. Feel free to select another one. Also, I decided to have just the main xmms control come up each time. If you want the equalizer and the playlist to show up as well, append "equalizer 1 play_list 1" to the end of the "Exec=" line.

I've noticed that one big benefit of launching via xmmsctrl is that the playlist is preserved from one run to the next (unlike with the default xmms icon).

I have a few problems.

I am using XMMS 1.2.1 on N800 running oS2008.

1) I installed the skins and cannot seem to see any in the skin browser, why is that?
2) Is there a way to get a list of presets already like in the default winamp program?
3) How come my list doesn't save when I exit and go back in? is there an autoreload previous list?
4) Why is the program always on top even if i didn't select it? When the options appear, they appear behind the program.
5) How come I can't get the keyboard working? I can't seem to input anything in any boxes.
6) is the main window not wsuppose to work? Volume, right/left slider for sound, spectrum, time, nothing moves...
