hi!

that's easy... just remove the extra ";" and it's ready :) I had the same error, too....

inputAPE is working fine here :)

-------------
If I may, can I ask you guys about some things (I marked them with '####'):

jopher@darkstar:~$ lamip -o alsa -g default 01.ape
ALSA: configuration (WORK IN PROGRESS)

#####I also get this with gimp and others
(<unknown>:15788): Gtk-WARNING **: Could not find the icon 'gnome-fs-home'. The 'hicolor' theme
was not found either, perhaps you need to install it.
You can get a copy from:

/home/jopher/01.ape -> file:///home/jopher/01.ape

####This happens when I drag the volume slider

GTK2: something is bad (libgtk2.c)

####After I close lamip gui
Segmentation fault

got also this. seems come from the foobar plugin (two gtk+2 plugin seems bad...)

Trying to add certain ape files to play in lamip that are encoded with mac version 3.970 or less seems to crash lamip. I've yet to have the problem with any ape encoded with mac 3.980 or above and some 3.970 encodes do work. Here's two examples of the crash, which happens after parsing all of the tag info:
*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (fasttop): 0xb5d2f1e0 ***
MAC: mac_play: Freeing decompress

*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption (fasttop): 0xae880ae8 ***
MAC: mac_play: Freeing decompress

I'm not really sure what's wrong or what else I can give, so if you have any other info that you need and can tell me how to get I can try to get it. And it always crashes when I try to add the problematic files.

hi verdandi,

as I don't own any APEs which were encoded with these "old" mac versions... the best you could give us is an example file :)

regards
Marcus

thanks verdandi!

just had a look at the inputAPE sources again... it should be fixed in the next version! But as I'm involved in writing AMD64 optimized assembler code for MAC I'll release the next inputAPE when this has been finished too!

where can I get inputAPE and inputFLAC? I haven't find the source package in the download page.

it's in the 'testing' directory of the download area

two other issues I'm having with the ape decoder:
-Random clicking/poppingish sounds occur that don't exist in the file: both before they were in apes, and if encoded into a different format, the problem disappears...seems to happen to all apes
-You can't seek at all: either it skips to the next file in the playlist, or it goes back to the start of the file while the player thinks that it's where you seeked to(as in the bar and time displays where you scrolled to)

any thoughts?

yes... that's one of the bugs I have too... I don't really know where the problem is because I can't see any error... but it must be simple :)

I'll take care of that when I'm back from holidays
