Subject: [SDL] SDL_mixer problem on Mac OSX

Hello !


When using the latest SDL_mixer CVS version on Mac OSX
i get no sound output, whether playing a MP3 file or a
MOD file. SDL_mixer 1.2.6 works without any problems.

On windows the latest SDL_mixer CVS verion works without problems.

System:

Latest Mac OSX Tiger version
Latest stable XCode and Dev. Tools
Latest SDL CVS version and helper Libs.


loopwave from SDL CVS works.

So there are any changes from SDL_mixer 1.2.6 to latest SDL_mixer
CVS that made that no sound is played.

This may or may not be a dupe of Bug #19.

Tossing the SDL_mixer bugs to Sam (all three of which might be the same bug in practice)...if you don't want these, toss them back to me.

Setting Sam as "QA Contact" on all bugs (even resolved ones) so he'll definitely be in the loop to any further discussion here about SDL.

Yes, I think this is a dup with respect to Mikmod.

MP3 seems to be a different "problem" entirely. I looked over the current Xcode projects and I think the reason for the MP3 failure is the fact that we don't compile the support in with the proper flags. MP3 seems to dependent on SMPEG. But unlike some of the other dependencies, we don't have any static libraries or code of SMPEG included in the OS X bundle. That means we would need to dynamically link to it, but I'm not sure if we want to incur that dependency, especially since SMPEG seems to be somewhat in a state of neglect.

I'm not sure why 1.2.6 had MP3 support or how it got it and why it disappeared now. Since I've been the primary mucker of the Project Builder/Xcode build systems after Darrell Walisser, It seems like this would have been something I would have to explicitly done to remove, but I have no recollection of this.

I might take a crack at trying to update SMPEG for the current Xcode and Universal Binaries, but it's all time permitting.
Comment 5 Sam Lantinga 2006-04-30 23:26:25 UTC 
This is fixed in the latest SDL_mixer in subversion, and the latest smpeg in CVS.

Thanks!
