XMMS 1.2.11 - multimedia player?
There are several XMMS packages contributed by different forum members, and quite a few input plugins and skins available as separate dotpets.
But there has been no consistency regarding where XMMS installs to in the filesystem, so it's difficult to mix-and-match the different components.
I have now packaged the most recent XMMS version with all of the useful input plugins included, so you won't need to chase around installing the plugins as a separate exercise.
And the installation location, /usr/local, is the same as Dougal's older XMMS-1.2.10 announced here -
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=13056
so Dougal's collection of skins are compatible with this new package.
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Multimedia/xm ... by-Dougal/
Thanks to Raffy, the XMMS package, and separate locales package are available here
http://minipc.org/ipup/download/xmms-1.2.11.pet
http://minipc.org/ipup/download/xmms-1.2.11-locales.pet
Input plugins included:
MAD MPEG decoder (MP3)
libmpg123 (MP3)
MP4/AAC (faad)
Ogg Vorbis
WMA (WindowsMediaAudio)
FLAC
WAVE
CD audio
There are two MP3 plugins, because as well as the standard libmpg123 plugin, I provided the additional MAD plugin which is claimed to sound superior.
The libmpg123 plugin has been disabled in preferences.
There are even more input plugins available here
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Multimedia/xm ... s-plugins/
The output plugin has been (correctly) configured for ALSA. This can be changed to OSS in the rare case where your audio device is supported only by an OSS driver (such as the SiS 7019 audio chip in the eBox thin client).
XMMS will not work in Puppy4.x because Puppy4.x does not have the older GTK1 libraries.
For Puppy4.x you should consider:
Audacious
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=20942
or BMP

I just tested some internet radio MP3 streams.
The "MAD" input plugin won't work for network streams, so you must disable it in preferences, and enable the "libmpg123" plugin instead.
Now click on "Play Location" and enter the URL of the MP3 stream, and importantly, add the suffix ":mp3" to the URL.
XMMS needs this suffix because it cannot identify the format of MP3 network streams.

Hey Tempestuous,
Thanks for putting XMMS together in one place. I just have one question, I don't seem to have the MAD plugin included in my download from here. (downloaded yesterday) I only have libmpg123.so. I enabled it and was able to listen to mp3s, so I don't really care about MAD, but I was just wondering what happened to it.
Thanks.

It's there. You can see it when you go to Options > Preferences > Audio I/O Plugins tab. See attached image.battleshooter wrote:I don't seem to have the MAD plugin included in my download from here. (downloaded yesterday) I only have libmpg123.so.
The plugin, itself, is at /usr/local/lib/xmms/Input/libxmmsmad.so
There's a chance you may have some other version of XMMS installed in /usr/bin
You can launch my version by specifying the full path -
Code: Select all
/usr/local/bin/xmms

How embarrassing. I've been making all these mistakes it's unbelievable.
Anyway, I reinstalled your XMMS, Tempestuous and MAD was there. I must have grabbed someone else's and thought it was yours yesterday- I downloaded more than one XMMS package cause I was looking for one with WMA support. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Thanks Tempestuous.

gxmms2 - A GTK+ 2 based XMMS2 client
http://wejp.k.vu/projects/xmms2/
I got it somewhat going without adding any other libraries
But I think my compiler is stuffed and I have to reset, Anyways it was nice seeing it popup.
It also has a nice taskbar icon "Music Note" with a right click menu, its part of the picture at the bottom.
ttuuxxx
PS If you want tempestuous maybe have a look at compiling it, You'll probably do a better job.

Yesterday I didn't have it going just the client, Buttttttt today I started over from scratch and managed to get it running:)aragon wrote:hi ttuuxxx,

It doesn't have a eq, but it has a nice play list editor, I have a few more things to figureout before I can release it, Basically you have to type in a console
./xmms2d --yes-run-as-root
then you click on Gxmms2 and it starts.
strange, yet painful , LOL
ttuuxxx
Ps I had to compile gkrellm to get it running also.
Update I managed to make a small script to start the Xmms2 daemon but if I shut Gxmms2 off the song keeps playing in memory and the xmms2 stays alive in memory after the song is finished. I think this is one for the developers to figure out
The code would have to place in the actually Gxmms2 source to enable and kill the xmms2.
Pprocess can kill it but kind of a pain.
I'll try tomorrow and see what I can with the code. But I'm very limited in that category.

Here is the "Audioscrobbler" plugin for XMMS, which will log what music you play with your Last.fm account to build your profile.
Last.fm is an internet radio/community http://www.last.fm
Enter your Last.fm username and password in XMMS Options > Preferences > General Plugins > XMMS-Scrobbler 0.4.0 > Configure
Now restart XMMS.
Under Puppy 3.x you will also need to install libcurl.so.3-symlink.pet
Under Puppy 4.x you may (?) need to install libidn.so.11.pet
I also provided the full lastfm player application, version 1.3.1.0, and thanks to MU, it's available here -
http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Multimedia/lastfm-1.3/
It requires the qt4 library, which is available via petget for Puppy 4.x

Here is the Analog VUmeter plugin for XMMS.
Once installed, go to
Options > Preferences > Visualization Plugins
and enable the VUmeter.
Press the "Configure" button to change VUmeter skin. The default skin looks very ordinary, so I included the "ExpensiveHi-Fi" skin for both the meter and XMMS, which looks like this -

Hello tempestuous,
Thank you for this package!
It also works in teenpup 2008!

Here is a package of Xmms Vu meters. Just unzip with pupzip and drag them to
/root/.xmms/VU_Meter_skins and select configure in visualisations.
.xmms is a hidden file!
Try this skin!

With renewed interest in the Puppy 2-series, via ttuuxxx's Puppy 214X
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=42553
and Barry's 218 alpha
http://puppylinux.com/blog/?viewDetailed=00798
XMMS is once again a prime candidate as audio player of choice.
This XMMS dotpet package is known to work in 214X, and will most likely also work in 218.
Puppy 214X4 includes BMP as audio player, and it would be interesting to learn users' preferences between BMP and XMMS.

Thanks for locating that. But, I guess I don't know what Im doing because the crossfader doesn't appear in any of the XMMS plugin options. Neither does the VU meter plugin. PPM says both are installed. I rebooted the computer....both no show.tempestuous wrote:XMMS-crossfade Output plugin just added.
See the second post in this thread.
Any ideas??? Thanks.
