Re: Deadbeef can't load Vorbis Opus files

Deadbeef's FFMpeg plugin "Use all extensions supported by ffmpeg" is disabled by default.

Enable it, restart, try to play audio and disable it, restart and try to play a file unfortunately doesn't work either.

I confirm. Files with the opus extension cannot be selected in the file selection dialog and they are not added to the playlist.

deadbeef 1.8.2

Re: Deadbeef can't load Vorbis Opus files

I also can confirm that in deadbeef 1.8.2-1 files with the opus extension cannot be opened or added to play, even if ffmpeg plugin enabled option "Use all extensions supported by ffmpeg" and added at the end of supported extensions opus extension or this option unselected, deadbeef restarted, etc.

But in qmmp opening and playing opus files works (and I writing this because qmmp looks similar to me - similar plugins used, basic interface without skins, etc.). Qmmp instead can't open umx (Unreal 1 music tracker files - mostly s3m, xm, it, mod based) which deadbeef can. There is no ideal music player yet.

Re: Deadbeef can't load Vorbis Opus files

Make a bug report on the Arch Flyspray to add opusfile to the optional dependencies of deadbeef

Edit: Or rather vote on the already existing report: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/63484

Or if deadbeef is the perfect player safe for this, download the PKGBUILD from the ABS[1] and add the opusfile dep and build it until the maintainer gets around to adding it.

what about VLC?

recursion is disabled by default, but can be enabled with:
tools > prefs > show settings: all > playlist > subdir behave > expand

what i miss: playback queue and auto-save playlist

Re: Deadbeef can't load Vorbis Opus files

Same thing here. And I have installed everything with word "opus" in community repos. And toggled both states of FFMPEG plugin.

OK, I did a bit of investigation and found out: there should be an explicitly listed plugin "OPUS player" and it is missing from the deadbeef version in repository. If you install deadbeef-git from AUR, it is there and files play without problems. I'll write a bug report about that.

And final update: the bug has already been reported and has been there for more than a year. Use deadbeef-git or rebuild the package yourself.

Re: Deadbeef can't load Vorbis Opus files

This worked for me.

Edit->Preferences->Plugins->FFMPEG audio player->Configure 

Add opus to the list of file extensions.

$yay -Q | grep 'opus\|deadbeef\|ffmpeg'

deadbeef 1.8.3-1
ffmpeg 1:4.2.3-4
opus 1.3.1-2
