Hi all,
A couple of weeks ago xmms stopped recognizing m4a/mp4 files, and instead of
playing them it just opened up the file dialogue, as it does with all files
it doesn't recognize. Today I finally looked into why this may be happening.
Now, as best as I can tell the way to enable this is to install faad2 with the
xmms USE flag set, which I did have. Indeed, the needed plugins were
in /usr/lib/xmms/Input/
Just for giggles, I re-emerged faad2, as the plugins were dated from before it
stopped working, and it updated/rebuilt:
/usr/lib/xmms/Input/libmp4.so
/usr/lib/xmms/Input/libmp4.la
/usr/lib/xmms/Input/libmp4.a
However, when looking at the input plugins tab in xmms preferences, they don't
even show up. The Flac, Vorbis, cdaudio et al plugins in the same directory
do show up.
Does anyone have an idea here? Is it a faad2 bug, xmms bug? Am I missing
something?
Thanks,
-d
