Clementine and Alsa?

HI guys i just installed Clementine and i really like it, but it requires all these gstreamer packages, and some of them are puling in gnome packages i really dont want on my system. Im on a low-package diet. Is there a way to get it working with alsa or any way in general without gstreamer?

Thansks..

Re: Clementine and Alsa?

To play vorbis and flac you need gstreamer base and the good plugins

You can strip pretty much everything else

Ok i got the good and good plugin packages installed. Also installed gstreamer-ffmpeg to get the alsa output setting in clementine. For some reason the sound is really low when i play with alsa, but when i switch to OSS its fine.

And i cant forward or go back to a point in the song, it just keeps playing.

Re: Clementine and Alsa?

I'm having the same issue. I'm trying to keep my system clean of gnome. I'm new to Arch and I love all you learn by going through the config files, I used to love gnome as a Ubuntu user, but now I find it hinders my attepts to manage evrything the way I want to!

I love clementine, but each time I install it it messes with my alsa sound (works with oss though) and I have found out the same happens to me whenever I install the glib library!!! gcron messed the sound becouse of glib. Anyone knows why this is?

Does anyone know a good media player that suports Ipod and that isn't gnome or KDE deppending?

Thanks a lot!!

Re: Clementine and Alsa?

Is it possible to build gstreamer0.10-good-plugins without gconf and libsoup-gnome depends? Whether it will work correctly?

Re: Clementine and Alsa?

I think my problem with glib and Alsa is that gnome uses pulseaudio, is there a way to configure gnome media players such as clementine, rythmbox, etc to use alsa instead of pulse? since I don't want to instal it that might be a solution.
