patch to make mikmod default decoder (1.62 KB, patch)

Description Benjamin Otte (Company) 2003-01-25 01:58:45 UTC 
Currently the rank of mikmod is specified as GST_ELEMENT_RANK_SECONDARY
while modplug is GST_ELEMENT_RANK_PRIMARY. So the autoplugger always chose
modplug over mikmod.

In my opinion mikmod sounds far better though.

I'll attach a patch to change this.

Does the mikmod plugin work as well as the modplug one? I know apoc 
has mostly worked on the modplug one for the last 6 months.
Comment 3 Christian Fredrik Kalager Schaller 2003-02-23 20:23:07 UTC 
Ok, since mikmod do not support seeking for instance I think this
switch is out of the question. Any protests at me closing this patch?
Comment 4 Christian Fredrik Kalager Schaller 2003-02-24 13:58:37 UTC 
Closing this bug. If you want the switch Benjamin you need to get
mikmod  to support seeking first.
