heh, nevermind 3.3.4.

It compiled fine on a computer for 3.4.3 but didn't for 3.3.5. I guess this is what the issue is.

The previous Codeine version 1.0beta5 compiled fine on Slackware 10.1.

anyways I'll wait for stable Codeine release!

So it is ambiguous because it doesn't know whether to convert to float or double? GCC 3.3.5 apparently sucks arse.

You can simply change line 65 so it reads blah log10( (double)foo ); and it should compile.

Just compiled codeine beta6 and it seems (like in beta5 also) dvd menus don't work in the sense that it isn't possible to select any part of teh menu, there is a reaction (buttons glow etc), but now ability to select said button.

Arch Linux
xine-lib 1.0.1-1
gcc 3.4.3-2

Thanks

Yes, sorry, it's quite possible I broke this as I couldn't test DVDs as I have none with me currently (long story). Will test and fix for 1.0.0-rc1. Thanks!

Codeine looks great. But could you add a playlist support? And it would be good to have volume control in main window.

Hi there :-) Can you justify a playlist for a video application? I'll add support for anything that can be justified and that won't violate my simple promise.

Volume control will appear as an action hopefully next release. It won't be enabled by default! But it'll be there for those who want it.

Thanks.

Playlist is useful for watching series and multiparted video files so you don't have to open each file which is annoying. Also you can have playlist file saved eg. in ~/Desktop diretory so you can open those files just by doubleclick instead of navigating through directory tree to the movie. Of course it mostly apply only if you have your movie files on HDD :)

BTW: I think it would be better if the "Play" menu itself has entries "Play File", "Play VCD" and "Play DVD". IMHO its faster to do what you want with those menu etries, because you don't have to move your mouse too far.

Thanks

P.S.: Sorry for my english :o)

I see. Well, I may make it possible to queue files, but there won't be an explicit playlist view. I'll try to make this intuitive.

I find that the current system for the Play menu is good. Yes the user has to do one extra click and a little more mouse movement, but I feel this is offset by the other usability advantages. Eg less menu items, less confusion due to two ways to achieve the same goal, letting the user get at the recent file list.

Thanks for the comments.

ad menu) Which two way to rach same goal you mean? And i think that play and stop entries do more clutter in menu.

If you can't find the two ways then you haven't explored the application very thoroughly, and I can't explain the issues very easily. Start codeine by itself, not via Konqueror to see.

The play/stop actions in the menu have to be there if I am to obey the HIG, and they don't clutter in the same way as multiple play entries. The current menu is composed of items that perform distinct functions, multiple "play x..." functions are too similar and thus more cluttering/confusing.

Interface design requires you to think about a problem from many different angles and involves a great amount of compromise. My solution seems the best for the problems it solves, the extra click is unfortunate but as I said it improves the interface overall.

Thanks.

Unfortunately I am unable to build this app. in MandrivaLinux 2005LE x86_64.
I get an error about xine being unavailable.
However, it seems that the app. has troubles finding qt-mt
How can I fix this.
Also, I have almost exactly the same problem with filelight.

Here's the exact error message:

Configuring Codeine-1.0-beta6...

Configure could not find either the xine library or header on your system. You
should ammend the relevant

But if I look at the config.log file, it already says there that it can not find qt-mt:
g++ -L/usr/X11R6/lib -o .sconf_temp/conftest_0 .sconf_temp/conftest_0.o -L/usr/lib64 -L/usr/lib/qt3/lib -lqt-mt -lxine

I found it, sort of...

On x86_64 the locations of files are a bit different.
For instance: for the above mentioned problem, the "fix" was the make a link from /usr/lib/qt3/lib64 to /usr/lib/qt3/lib (not pretty!!!).
Next, I had sort of the same problem with the Xtest lib.:
/usr/X11R6/lib64/libXtst.so
But the program looks for: /usr/X11R6/lib/libXtst.so (here, I linked to fix as well).

And finally, the kde3 files were built in /usr/lib/kde3. This should have been: /usr/lib64/kde3. I did a "mv" in my .spec file to counter this.
In short: could you add "lib64" as possible libdir location to you makefile/makefile builder? That should solve most of the problems.
Also: the parameter "extraincludes=" at ./configure doesn't seem to do much (I tried to fix the library-issue thru this one first). I don't know whether that's a bug or not, but you might want to look at it.

I'll publish the rpm,for MandrivaLinux 2005LE, both for i586 and x86_64 in a couple of hours on: http://129.125.209.235/deel/RPM/Mandrivalinux2005LE

feature request

I also have a feature I would like codeine to support:
libxine can use several output libs to project the image on your screen.
At the moment codeine doesn't support switching between these output libs (at least, not as far as I can see).
I would like to be able to switch between these libs, as, for example, you need a different output lib if you also want to show a movie on a plugged in TV. (with for instance an ATI or Nvidia card with commercial drivers).
