3. Compile soundKonverter
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
In order to compile soundKonverter, you need:
|
|
- taglib-devel 1.4.0 (libtaglib-devel on mandriva)
|
|
- cdparanoia (libcdda-devel on mandriva, cdparanoia-devel on fedora)
|
|
|
|
On some operating systems, the cdda check (cdparanoia) in ./configure may fail.
|
|
This is because sometimes the header files are at another location (eg. /usr/include/cdda instead of /usr/include on ark linux).
|
|
In this case remove the cdparanoia check from the configure.in.in file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Known bugs
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
- The options tabs get out of sync in some very rare cases
|
|
- taglib check in ./configure may fail
|
|
|
|
Backends that's output cant't be read:
|
|
- The progress of some backends can't be read properly
|
|
|
|
A big change is that soundKonverter now uses mime types.
|
|
If you find problems, please tell me about it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Thanks to all Open Source programmers for their apps that I used to get some code.
|
|
Especially Kaffeine and Amarok.
|
|
|
|
Have a lot of fun.
