Alex,
I'm looking @ the source's timestamp and it's of May 20, 2011.
Shouldn't it be today's date June 14th?
Also i checked the timestamps of the files inside the archive - none
seemed to be modified past May 20th.
I thought that you made some changes to get mp3 playback enabled. Did
i misunderstood you?
Let me know
Andrew

Hi, I did some research into this and found that mp3 support is not
enabled in the EPEL version of the app. I was able to get mp3 support by
compiling it myself.
The newest source is here:
http://code.google.com/p/qmmp/downloads/detail?name=qmmp-0.5.1.tar.bz2&can=2&q=
The list of requires is in the readme file (except they aren't listed as
the devel versions).
Thank you Alexandr. Ill try to get to compiling rpm tonight.

Hi,
No problem with the brevity, and you're welcome for the info. I just thought
I'd add that now I am using the self-compiled version there seems to be some
lack of functionality in a couple of the menus; ie. there is a menu entry
for "tools" in the player, but nothing there, and the "new list" function
doesn't seem to do anything - mind you I've never used this player, so maybe
there is nothing usually in tools, and you will be compiling for i686, so
maybe you will have a different result (I'm on a 64bit system) with new
list, etc. Also, I wasn't able to find the following deps which are listed
as optional so maybe if you find them everything for i686 will be as it
should be.
Missing deps for 64bit:
- game-music-emu>= 0.5.5 (Optional)
- libWildMidi>= 0.2.3.4 (Optional)
- libprojectM>= 1.2.0 (Optional)
- libenca>= 1.9 (Optional)
best wishes

Hi Andrew, The source time-stamp is correct. The official qmmp site is here:
http://qmmp.ylsoftware.com/index_en.php
and it lists the date of release being May 20, 2011, so that's what all
the time-stamps should say.
All I had to do to enable playback of every kind of audio file including
mp3 was to have all of the devel versions of the deps.
Since you are on a i686 system, all you should need to do is run cmake
(if you want qmmp installed in /usr instead of /usr/share - which is
the default - use:
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ), then when that's done run make, and
when that's done, sudo make install.
If you're wanting to make an .rpm out of it, I think you'd use rmpbuild
to do that but I'm not very proficient at that yet so you'll need to do
research or ask about doing it.
Anyway, if you have the deps you'll get the mp3 support enabled without
needing any flags.
As an aside; I ended up finding the other missing deps last night (after
my last post)and re-compiled it. Everything in qmmp works perfectly,
although there is still nothing listed under "tools" in the qmmp menu,
so my guess would be it was put there for something coming in an
upcoming release.
I hope that helps, and it is an awesome player, so thank you for
pointing me to it. I love it when a plan (or something un-planned) comes
together :)
Alex
