Permanent mute #8

Closed juk47ht closed 10 years ago

juk47ht commented 10 years ago

After an ad is muted successfully, if a song comes up, muting still continues till I manually unmute my system. I'm using GUI (mute tracks and auto add tracks are checked), but problem persist on the normal blockify as well. Is there anyway to fix this?

Great piece of software by the way. Thanks.

System: Ubuntu 14.04

gmdfalk commented 10 years ago

hey there,

i'm rewriting parts of blockify this weekend. Maybe i can fix your issue.

Regards

gmdfalk commented 10 years ago

GUI has changed a lot. Thus, i'm closing this issue, hoping it's resolved.

juk47ht commented 10 years ago

Unfortunately, neither blockify not UI is working on Ubuntu 14.04. When I run UI, my mouse first turns into a plus sign, and when I click several times, it gives this following error:

import.im6: unable to open image blockify': Is a directory @ error/blob.c/OpenBlob/2638. /home/***/blockify-0.7/blockify/blockify_ui.py: line 9: syntax error near unexpected token(' /home/***/blockify-0.7/blockify/blockify_ui.py: line 9: `class Notepad(gtk.Window):'

And save couple of screenshots of my terminal (file names are: glib, gtk, and os) in home folder. Any ideas?

gmdfalk commented 10 years ago

That sounds a lot like you are not using python to run the file but instead some sort of shell. Because import is being treated as imagemagick's import. I removed the shebang from the top of the file but please try starting blockify with either python blockify.py or install it (with pip install .) and then use /usr/bin/blockify (or wherever the binary goes in Ubuntu).

Thank you for the helpful comment. Now, it gives me this error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/***/blockify-master/blockify/blockify.py", line 22, in from docopt import docopt ImportError: No module named docopt

I reinstalled pip but still same error.

If I use the script in bin folder, it gives me this:

gmdfalk commented 10 years ago

That's because one of the modules blockify needs is docopt. I made docopt optional for the GUI now though, it should work even without docopt. If it doesn't work, you'll have to install docopt with pip install docopt. Cheers

juk47ht commented 10 years ago

Well, thanks. I was able to open it this time, however my original problem still persists: permanent mute. I wonder if it's because of Ubuntu or me.

gmdfalk commented 10 years ago

i am guessing ubuntu used pulseaudio instead of alsa which might result in some sort of conflict. i was planning to add support for pulseaudio anyway, so i guess i'll look into that later.

meanwhile, if you're so inclined, you could try installing docopt, start blockify (the cli, not the gui) with python blockify.py -vvv and see if it spits out any errors. without any more information i can only guess what the real issue is here.

cheers!

Thanks, that's useful. It means only the unmute part doesn't work, i'll look into that.

Comment or delete line 124: "if self.muted:" and see if that solves this issue. I'd also be interested in the output of "amixer". Thanks!

I'm working on a pulseaudio mute_option right now, I'm hoping that will do the trick. And yeah, you can add back the if self.muted: line.

subprocess.Popen(["amixer", "-D", "pulse" , "set", channel, state])

hope it helps!

I can confirm that the current version of Blockify works flawlessly in Ubuntu 14.04. Thank you mikar.

Happy to do it. The positive side effect is that with PulseAudio blockify will now only mute the Spotify sink instead of all system sound.

Hi, mikar! I installed blockify with this code from https://github.com/mikar/blockify#direct-pipsetuppy: sudo apt-get install python-pip python-wnck sudo pip install http://github.com/mikar/blockify/archive/v1.7.2.zip

Create optional desktop icon

echo -e '[Desktop Entry]\nName=Blockify\nComment=Blocks Spotify commercials\nExec=blockify-ui\nIcon='$(python -c 'import pkg_resources; print pkg_resources.resource_filename("blockify", "data/icon-red-512.png")')'\nType=Application\nCategories=AudioVideo' | sudo tee /usr/share/applications/blockify.desktop

But it doesn't start. Starting with terminal:

No handlers could be found for logger "dbus" Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/blockify", line 9, in load_entry_point('blockify==1.7.2', 'console_scripts', 'blockify')() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/blockify/blockify.py", line 382, in main blockify = initialize() File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/blockify/blockify.py", line 375, in initialize blockify = Blockify(blocklist.Blocklist()) File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/blockify/blockify.py", line 63, in init import interludeplayer File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/blockify/interludeplayer.py", line 7, in import gst ImportError: No module named gst

You're missing gstreamer plugins. See if sudo apt-get install gstreamer-0.10 fixes it for you.

I'm sorry can't solve that problem. Can You give me advice again zu solve it? Thank You very much!

Hi,

sounds like a configuration issue with your default sound card. I don't know how to solve that but you could start by googling amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such file or directory.

Today I got the solution of this problem. Blockify is running now as before! I had to write a new /etc/asound.conf.
