2005-11-11 15:34 UTC, Arwed v. Merkatz 		none Details | Review

Description Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2005-11-11 08:49:44 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
1. update to wavpack 4.3 from www.wavpack.com
2. try to play a wavpack file with gst-launch-0.8 filesrc location=test.wv !
wavpackparse ! wavpackdec ! fakesink, doesn't work (output below)
3. try to re-register all plugins -> the wavpack plugins gets removed from the
registry
4. recompilation against 4.3 changes nothing

Comment 1 Arwed v. Merkatz 2005-11-11 15:33:17 UTC 
This is (imho) an upstream bug in wavpack 4.3, the library declares a debug
variable as extern.

patch for wavpack 4.3

Applying this patch to the wavpack 4.3 source, installing and recompiling
gst-plugins works for me.
Comment 3 Sebastian Dröge (slomo) 2005-11-11 16:14:23 UTC 
thanks, this fixed it :)

btw, did you look at the other bugreport wrt to wavpack? the -h thing... any ideas?
Comment 4 Arwed v. Merkatz 2005-11-11 17:38:01 UTC 
I've sent the patch to the wavpack developer.
Comment 5 Andy Wingo 2005-11-30 12:35:58 UTC 
Sounds like a NOTGNOME to me...
