Hello, please test the current mpeglib (pre15). If there are no objections, we (may) include it into kdemultimedia!!! Itīs a rather big package (600KB), before it goes into CVS we like to know if there are any problems (compile,deadlock,segfaults,..) You can download mpeglib here: http://mpeglib.sourceforge.net/ BUILD ----- mpeglib builds a library libmpeg and another library libarts_mpeglib. libarts_mpeglib is the bridge to artsd. TESTING: ------- start artsd and then try the executable mpeglibartsplay /path/fo/file it plays mp3/mpeg I video and ogg files. Martin
