[opensuse-factory] amarok upgrade to amarok2
Hey Group; Upgrading from 11.0 to 11.2 amarok worked fine with amarok-yauap (which is broken) and amarok-xine. Now upgraded to 11.2 and Amarok 2 but no audio or even Yast2 2 can't find a version of yauap or xine. My Amarok was playing along today just fine without any upgrade or install from source when it stopped playing. Now nothing including a rpm -e of amarok none files then a upgrade to amarok2.0.2 and no sound. Can anyone explain why 1.4.10 just stopped in the middle of a song? A secondly why a absolutely freash SuSE Yast2 download fails. -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email:" n5xwb@windstream.net " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb@arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Just installed amarok-2.0.2-4.4 using zypper in, no problems playing across the internet - amarok-yauap and amarok-xine not installed and not in the factory repos. Could be those plugins are incompatible. It continues to play both when I switch to VC1 and I switch back. Can't figure why you are having such strange problems across so many things.

Amarok2 uses phonon - so there's no need for yauap. You need phonon-backend- xine or phonon-backend-gstreamer depending on which engine you prefer. I hope you're testing with ogg files, cuz I don't think you can expect factory to be sporting mp3 support after Fluendo put a stop to that. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Is phonon intended to be the kde4 replacement for the likes of pulseaudio, portaudio and jack? I have not been able so far to see any effect of phonon and the explanations I have seen so far have been glowing reports of what it can do. Is is just a matter of apps being rewritten to use it?

Phonon is not a sound server, it is an API that provides access to the multimedia featueres of the underlying backends. And yes, the major effect of phonon is, that not every app must have its own code for accessing multimedia, it must only access phonon. So at first it is nice for developers, but if something is nice for the developers, the users will benefit, too. :)
