Using Tremor for playing .ogg

Postby jensus » 13 Feb 2008 17:34

Hello,

I've successfully compiled vlc on my nslu2 (an arm-based device) with --enable-tremor
Now when I try to play an ogg-file, processor use goes up to 100% and vlc tells me
main decoder debug: using decoder module "vorbis"
.... and later
main audio output warning: PTS is out of range

I've tried out playing the same file with the ivorbisfile_example program (which comes with the tremor codec) - processor use is around 30%
wget http://www.example.com/foo.ogg -O - | ./ivorbisfile_example | aplay -f cd

I suppose that either vlc is not choosing the tremor codec to play the .ogg - file or that there's another problem...

So my question is - is there a way to force vlc to use the tremor-codec for playing .ogg by command-line arguments?

Cheers,

Jens

Hey!

Thank you very much for your reply - although compiling vlc seemed to have worked fine, vlc tells me that it cannot load the module for some reason. I've tried to recompile everything several times, but unfortunately without success...

main private warning: cannot load module `modules/codec/libtremor_plugin.so' (modules/codec/libtremor_plugin.so: undefined symbol: vorbis_synthesis_headerin)

I'll continue searching... now I know that it's a problem with libtremor... and not with vlc...

Merci beaucoup,

Jens

there seems to be a problem with the symbols exported by Tremor.

add the following lines to Tremor/Version_script.in after "vorbis_comment_clear":

vorbis_synthesis_read;
vorbis_packet_blocksize;
vorbis_block_init;
vorbis_synthesis;
vorbis_dsp_clear;
vorbis_block_clear;
vorbis_synthesis_init;
vorbis_synthesis_blockin;
vorbis_synthesis_headerin;
vorbis_synthesis_pcmout;

then rebuild Tremor

now libtremor_plugin.so gets loaded, though i'm still not able to play a vorbis file
