Questions / Build from source
September 07, 2012, 18:01:55
Is there somewhere that might document how to build gmusicbrowser from the latest source on github for example. I assume youre using make and not cmake?

Ok, thank you for that. While I am sort of trying to grasp all the different features and how that queueinsert actually works, I was wondering a couple other things.

One is probably in documentation so I will look, but in case I cant find it, how would I save a layout I've been working on, just to back-up incase I bork something?

And I've been wondering what the breadcrumbs do, if anything? I'll try to look that up to, but is it possible that when clicking on a breadcrumb if  I click the artist, is it possible to see everything by that artist, or is there a similair feature like this instead of right clicking to jump to an artist/album?

This is pretty simple but I thought I'd open a new post to ask. I am wondering if this is possible or not:

Basically, I'd like to be able to double click or hit enter, and it adds the songs/album whichever I double clicked, to the top of the queue. When it does this I'd like it to keep everything else that was previously queued. I'd also like to be able to open a song from the file browser and it does the same which is adds it to the top of the queue and replaces the currently playing song, but leaves that song on the queue.

I'm not sure if this is possible or how to set it up but I've been playing around for a while and basically I'm confused how the playlist/queue works. Perhaps I'd be better using both the playlist, and queue?

I don't mind if it adds random music or plays all them music by a certain artist/album for example if the playlist or queue is empty, as long as it can do the above basically.

After thinking about what you said about it not being in the suse repos and first trying to build it myself and failing miserably, I went back and I checked the factory repo which is still newer than 12.2 I guess, as after I downloaded from here http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/perl/openSUSE_Factory/x86_64/

Along with perl-Gstreamer-Interfaces perl-Gstreamer-0.16-3.14.x86_64.rpm works properly so it must have been built to be in suse 12.2 and just hasn't made it yet, and I probably over-reacted a bit. Hopefully this helps someone else.

Thanks for being patient!

Well I got as far as finding a pearl-gstreamer-0.17 rpm but that also must have been compiled under 5.14.2 as thats what it's saying is required. I got it from here which also has a source package but I'm not sure how the source can help in this case http://pkgs.org/fedora-17/fedora-x86_64/perl-GStreamer-0.17-1.fc17.x86_64.rpm/download/

Wouldn't I have to compile a different perl build if I can't get a newer perl-gstreamer? I'll keep searching for perl-gstreamer

Thanks for the tip about mplayer, I was looking forward to gstreamer working finally, but I will try to do as you said and contact neocrust

Also I do believe  perl-Gstreamer existed in previous versions like 12.1 but I didn't bother cheking the repos, at any rate I'm sure it will eventually be updated for 12.2. It almost appears perl-gstreamer isn't active atm http://git.gnome.org/browse/perl-GStreamer/refs/

I too am curious about a solution to this, but my prblem may be unrelated. Under suse 12.2 rc2 there is a dependancy problem with perl-gtk2 Running from terminal I get this

GStreamer.pm not found
-> gstreamer output won't be available.

this is the dependancy problem:

nothing provides perl = 5.14.2 needed by perl-Gstreamer-0.16-4.1.x86_64

I installed from this repo:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/neocrust/openSUSE_12.1/x86_64/

Perhaps building from source will resolve this but I'm doubtful?

I decided to search the problem and found this bug related to the same dependency http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-bugs/2012-06/msg00776.html so I thought I'd search the file GStreamer.pm but I also realized while it's asking for it, I have no way of knowing where I'd copy the file to?

For now I'm stuck using mpg123 with no m4a support but I do have mp3 and flac so I'm not drowning yet.
