Re: xmms-arts plugin
Hi Bjarne, I do not believe you need it. I am running XMMS under KDE with no arts plugin without any problems at all. You don't *need* it, but xmms will lock the sound-device while playing and thus hindering kde-apps using it. One solution is to use vchans, but it sound *awfull* with my HW. An arts-plugin to xmms would be really nice, but I never got the plugin working apart from crashing everythin IIRC. You can start every sound application with a preceding artsdsp. So e.g. call xmms with artsdsp xmms This will wrap the xmms sound to the arts daemon, without blocking.

I have KMail set to give a ring when I get new mail, and it works fine while I am using XMMS to listen to an audio cd. Granted, the ring is a bit louder than I normally like, but only because I have the volume turned way up to hear the cd better. -- Todd Stephens ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Probably because KMial's ring is a beep with the internal speaker, not via the soundcard device. And even with artsdsp , I am unable to play sound simultaneously from a different source than xmms, while xmms is playing via the wrapper. Alin. smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature

Bjarne I have 'artsd' set-up to use /dev/dsp0.1 (while xmms uses /dev/dsp) and both co-exist nicely. -- Cogeco ergo sum pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

To do this you need to use sysctl and set hw.snd.pcm.vchan and hw.snd.maxautovchans. I have mine set to four. So I have 4 channels for audio. Then you can use KDE control panel to set Sound I/O to use a custom sound device. Set it to /dev/dsp0.1 and KDE sounds will go through this device, leaving XMMS to have it's own device. -- Rod @ Home So No Cool Signature http://opensourcebeef.bsd.st ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I have KMail set to play a system sound when new mail arrives. And even with artsdsp , I am unable to play sound simultaneously from a different source than xmms, while xmms is playing via the wrapper. I don't know what I did differently, but mine seems to work fine in that respect. Now, maybe the mail notification sound is delayed a bit, but I really don't know. -- Todd Stephens ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
