Hello,
Well, I have just installed 8.1, thinking that the problem would be fixed and to my dismay it is not. Using the default OSS output plugin the EQ does not work. I have also manually installed the aRts and ALSA pluging, and the EQ does not work with any of them.
I also installed the ALSA output plugin [RPMs available at https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=28610].
I didn't see that. I got mine directly from xmms.(com or whatver)
Does anyone know what can be done to make the EQ work again? It 1.2.7's EQ just simply broken?
I feel sorta stupid asking this but: have you turned it on?
Hehe. Like forgetting to plug your new computer into the power stripe (Or worse, plugging it in, and forgetting to turn the stripe/battery backup on ;-) Well don't feel bad, it happens, but yes, it is open, and enabled (blue light glowing) and I even actaully tried miving the sliders up and down ;-) hehe
Actually, I was having the _same_ problem you were (i.e., EQ doesn't work). It's just that I didn't bother looking up the solution until your post today.
The "on" button is in the upper left of the EQ window. Sure solved my problem ^-^
No such good luck for me. FYI I have a SoundBlaster Live Platinum wIth Live!Drive ( - which is another story, I can't get the LiveDrive to work in Linux)
Here's the Usenet post that revealed all: http://groups.google.com/groups?q=xmms+equalizer&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF- 8&selm=m31z6ccm5g.fsf%40serf.stud.uni-goettingen.de&rnum=1
If that doesn't solve your problem, please post.
Sorry, this time I am not saved today by discovering I was stupid yesterday. Yes, I have tried drastic EQs too, just for demo. It really did use to work :-D Tried the preamp too, no hope.... Any more ideas? Just now I tried all three output plugins again, it is still broken today (that happens to you know... randomly disappearing problems :-) -- ---------------------------------------------------- Jonathan Wilson System Administrator Cedar Creek Software http://www.cedarcreeksoftware.com
