New issue 170 by Krause.Chr: broken command line option for midi player
http://code.google.com/p/solfege/issues/detail?id=170
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. move away all previous local solfege config of the user (or create a new
user on your system)
2. start solfege
3. File -> Preferences -> Sound Setup
4. configure "User external MIDI player"
5. try the Test button
6. check on the tab "External Programs" the configured midi player
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
- error message "Failed to execute midi player"
- on the "External Programs" tab, the executable for the midi player is
"/usr/bin/timidity -idqq %s" and the parameter field is empty
- the executable should be solely "/usr/bin/timidity" and the parameter
field should contain "-idqq %s"
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
- linux
- 3.14.10
Please provide any additional information below.
The root cause is that "default.config" claims to comptabile with
rcfileversion 16 and so the conversion of the config entries which have the
program and the arguments on one line into separate values in app.py does
not happen:
if cfg.get_int("app/rcfileversion") <= 15:
for k in ("midi", "wav", "mp3", "ogg"):
v = cfg.get_string("sound/%s_player" % k).split(" ")
cfg.set_string("sound/%s_player" % k, v[0])
cfg.set_string("sound/%s_player_options" % k,
" ".join(v[1:]))
The issue can be solved by fixing the config file and separating the
arguments from timidity into a separate "midi_player_options" entry so that
default.config only contains "rcfileversion16-compatible" options.
Patch attached.
