I tried again, but not knowing anything about perl certainly doesn't
help I hacked a Slim/Formats/Mod.pm file based on other ones but it
doesn't seem to use it at all when scanning the files.
I'll do a recap here of what I did in case someone can spot an obvious
mistake.
I added a binary of mikmod in Bin/i368-linux with correct permissions
Added this line in types.conf:
Code:
--------------------
mod it,mod,s3m,xm audio/x-mod audio
--------------------
Added these two lines in convert.conf
Code:
--------------------
mod flc * *
[mikmod] -q --norc -X -i -d 5 $FILE$ | [flac] -cs --compression-level-0
--totally-silent --endian little --channel 2 --bps 16 --sample-rate 44100
--sign signed -
--------------------
Added these lines in strings.txt (for the interface):
Code:
--------------------
MOD
EN Modules
ES Modules
FR Modules
--------------------
And created a file called Slim/Formats/Mod.pm (and that was the tricky
part cause I don't know perl):
Code:
--------------------
package Slim::Formats::Mod;
# SlimServer Copyright (c) 2001-2004 Sean Adams, Slim Devices Inc.

# modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License,

use strict;
# Given a file, return a hash of name value pairs,
# where each name is a tag name.
sub getTag {
my $file = shift || "";
my $filesize = -s $file;
$::d_formats && msg( "Opening Module information for $file\n");
# Make sure the file exists.
return undef unless $filesize && -r $file;
$::d_formats && msg( "Reading Module information for $file\n");
my $tags = {};
my $f;
open $f, "<$file" || return undef;
$::d_formats && msg("opened file $file\n");
# Settings that mikmod uses to convert the module (matches what's in
convert.conf)
$endian = 0; # Modules converted by mikmod are little-endian
$numChannels = 2; # Stereo.
$sampleSize = 16;
$samplesPerSecond = 44100;
$numSampleFrames = 999999; # Will need to use the libmikmod interface to get
that later
$tags->{'ENDIAN'} = $endian;
$tags->{'FS'} = $filesize;
$tags->{'CHANNELS'} = $numChannels;
$tags->{'SAMPLESIZE'} = $sampleSize;
$tags->{'SIZE'} = $numSampleFrames * $numChannels * $sampleSize / 8;
$tags->{'OFFSET'} = 0;
$tags->{'RATE'} = $samplesPerSecond;
$tags->{'BITRATE'} = $samplesPerSecond * $numChannels * $sampleSize;
$tags->{'SECS'} = $numSampleFrames / $samplesPerSecond;
$tags->{'BLOCKALIGN'} = $numChannels * $sampleSize / 8;
return $tags;
}
1;
--------------------
The modules that I put in my music folder show just fine but if I
enable d_format, clear the cache an rescan the debug messages I put in
this file don't show up. So I think I need to do something else to get
slimserver to use it? And if I play them with d_source enable it tells
me that everythig is set to zero so it doesn't bother playing it.
BTW where could I find a list of tags that I can set for the hash?
Later on I'd like to fill in artist and title from a text file (since
it's not stored in any standard format in the modules themselves).
Thanks for your help.
