Hey guys. Has anyone tried this audio player?
http://freshmeat.net/projects/moreamp/
I was trying for hours to get it compiled from source but every time it gave me some funky errors and I gave it up...for now. I downloaded the Windows version and took it out for a test run. You see the massive 31 band EQ? That thing is a monster! Looks like a fairly new project but looks really promising. Interface is kind of cluttered with bunch of buttons and switches, this thing is pretty serious audio player. Hey maybe you guys have better chance getting this to compile (hell, maybe machine is a bit wonker ). If you somehow manage to get it up and running, let me know how it's like on linux.
p.s. in case if you are wondering, I've tried xmms-eq before. I would be using it if it didn't have that bug that makes xmms to crash on startup. Why is that linux audio players usually don't come with EQ?

I'll try my luck at compiling it.

Update: I got it to compile and was able to start it from the build directory.
It wasn't pretty. I had to patch the sources (still need to figure out what my patch does) and I even found a bug in faad2. There is still work to do. I'll post the PKGBUILD once done (sometime next week or earlier if I have time).

Yay! That's a good news!!! Thanks for all the effort

Little heads up. There seems to be a bug in this app which eats up 100% CPU. The dev guy said he'll fix it in the next release (0.1.12), but if not, patching it up will do for now.

More work to do eh?

Thanks for the info. It will need extra patching because currently it creates the user's settings in the same directory as the executable (instead of his home). I will probably post on the moreamp forum/bugtracker as the dev seems to be responsive.

Update: I posted on the moreamp forum: http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php? … _id=414679
I'll wait a bit and if there is no answer, I'll try Arch's Programming forum.

Done and submitted to AUR. More details here: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=12019

Yes. There's the "100% CPU" patch you posted about plus the patch to handle the user's settings. The moreamp dev is quite active. I posted on the forum and two days later he had responded with a patch. I think I spent more time to try to get the depends working (faad2, mpeg4ip) than moreamp itself.
