"Error opening sound device!" under Linux #80

Closed freq-mod closed 3 years ago

freq-mod commented 3 years ago

Trying to play any VGM file via VGMPlay throws this error. Happens both with OSS and libao.

OS is Arch Linux x64, VGMplay is fresh master.

ValleyBell commented 3 years ago

You could try launching vgmplay using the vgm-player script, which calls ALSA or PulseAudio wrappers.

However I recommend to just build the new libvgm-based VGMPlay version: https://github.com/ValleyBell/vgmplay-libvgm

There are no compile instructions for it yet, unfortunately. The basic process is:

clone the Git repo including the submodule
build the libvgm library from the libvgm subfolder (the default settings should be good)
then build VGMPlay itself (it should find the libvgm library automatcally)

I see. I will try that one.

hmm ... are you building the CMake project? CMake should detect the stdint files. (The Makefile is probably a bit out of date. It is a leftover from the initial development.)

freq-mod commented 3 years ago

hmm, I've built that with a makefile (sinple make command). I can build libvgm with cmake now, but vgmplay itself, errors out:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:147 (add_executable): Target "vgmplay" links to target "libao::libao" but the target was not found. Perhaps a find_package() call is missing for an IMPORTED target, or an ALIAS target is missing?

ah, nevermind, libvgm player works

ValleyBell commented 3 years ago

With player you unfortunately don't get too many options. (and no DBus support etc)

Regarding libao - that's a known issue. I already have a PR regarding that: https://github.com/ValleyBell/vgmplay-libvgm/pull/2

(The main reason is an issue of the config/install script on the libvgm side.)
