Installs but doesn't cast

[bonelifer]

It installs, sends the track info, but never streams the audio. Noticed this during install. On Xubuntu 20.04.4:

ERROR: pip's dependency resolver does not currently take into account all the packages that are installed. This behaviour is the source of the following dependency conflicts.
pycaption 2.0.6 requires beautifulsoup4<4.10,>=4.8.1, but you have beautifulsoup4 4.11.1 which is incompatible.
pycaption 2.0.6 requires cssutils<2.4,>=2.0.0, but you have cssutils 2.4.0 which is incompatible.
pycaption 2.0.6 requires lxml<4.7,>=4.6.3, but you have lxml 4.8.0 which is incompatible.
ocrmypdf 13.4.1 requires pdfminer.six!=20200720,<=20211012,>=20191110, but you have pdfminer-six 20220319 which is incompatible.
catt 0.12.7 requires pychromecast==9.2.0, but you have pychromecast 10.3.0 which is incompatible.
catt 0.12.7 requires zeroconf==0.31.0, but you have zeroconf 0.38.6 which is incompatible.

you need to uninstall catt, pycaption, and ocrmypdf as the errors say. I will try to make MC work in a virutual env but I don't have Linux desktop installed on any machine, so you'll have to bear with some experiments.

@bonelifer I tried my best to use venv, so git pull and try the install command again please.

Now doesn't run at all. Found this error on the console;

Just noticed the other comment, installed those three. Now no errors on console, but still doesn't run:

Try again (git pull, linux_install), the cp command wasn't overwriting the desktop before.

Can you also try this and tell me the error you get?

~/bin/music-caster/venv/bin/python ~/bin/music-caster/src/music_caster.py

[bonelifer]

Still isn't running. Output;

[elibroftw]

Is there a /home/william/bin/music-caster/src/venv dir?

[elibroftw]

Okay, so since venv requires a sudo install, I'll use virtualenv instead. Try again please.

[bonelifer]

Now able to run it again, but still doing nothing but turning on the chromecast, showing the info, but not playing. Timer advances, the full time flickers back and forth by a second, still no sound.

[elibroftw]

okay so you can connect but not cast? ah, it might be your firewall. Not exactly sure how to allow a script through it.

[bonelifer]

Tried listening to the files locally and apparently my cd ripper screwed up as the mp3's are blank. Tried with a known good file and it works

[elibroftw]

casting works too?

[bonelifer]

Yes

[elibroftw]

Enjoy

[elibroftw]

One last thing, can you let me know the size of ~/bin/music-caster/src/venv?
