Hi,
my name is Rudi Dittrich, I'm from Austria. I have recently bought the
Audio 8 DJ from Native Instruments. I'm using Ubuntu 8.04
with the studio extension which also includes mixxx. I wanted to use
audio 8 with mixxx but it always crashes after setting audio 8
as the master in "preferences - sound hardware - audio output".
- Does anyone of you already have some experience with this sound card
and how do I have to set the properties concerning my device
so that it runs properly?
- I also checked out the newest sources from your repository, compiled
it and tried again to run it with audio 8 but still crashes.
First I tried it to compile on CentOS 5.2 but got the following error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mixxx]$ scons prefix=/usr install
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
Platform: Linux
Error: QT path does not exist or QT4 is not installed.
Please specify your QT path by running 'scons qtdir=[path]'
It seems that the path to the QT directory is hard-coded into the
SConscript.
#Figure out what the QT path is
if platform == 'linux':
default_qtdir = '/usr/share/qt4'
elif platform == 'osx':
default_qtdir = '/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.3.2/'
elif platform == 'win32':
default_qtdir = 'C:\\qt\\4.3.0'
So maybe it would be better if you replace
'default_qtdir='/usr/shared/qt' with 'default_qtdir = os.getenv('QTDIR')'
However after resolving the problem above a new one appeared.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mixxx]$ sudo scons prefix=/usr install
scons: Reading SConscript files ...
Platform: Linux
QT path: /usr/lib/qt4
Loading qt4 tool...
Checking for C header file mp4.h... no
Checking for C library portaudio... no
Did not find libportaudio.a, portaudio.lib, or the PortAudio-v19
development header files - exiting!
So I decided to compile it under Ubuntu 8.04, compilation worked and
mixxx could be started but audio 8 is still not
working.
I would really like to contribute to the mixxx development . I'm an
experienced C++ programmer under Linux but having hardly background
knowledge
on audio processing etc. So please tell me if I could help you and how.
Best regards,
Rudi Dittrich.
