Hello,
I have downloaded the latest versions of madplay, libmad and
libid3tag. I had to rename the wait() routine in the audio_carbon.c
otherwise I was getting conflicts against the sys/wait.h. After that
everything built, but madplay is acting absolutely crazy. I gave it
an aiff file to play and all I get is gibberish. I gave it a simple
wave file to play and this is what I get:
[ukiel:/MP3/madplay-0.15.2b] wind% madplay simpsn03.wav
MPEG Audio Decoder 0.15.2 (beta) - Copyright (C) 2000-2004 Robert
Leslie et al.
error: frame 0: lost synchronization
0 frames decoded (0:00:00.0), -inf dB peak amplitude, 0 clipped samples
There is no sound at all.
Now this file plays fine in VLC, Itunes and such, no problems.
This is what I get when I feed an Apple aiff file through:
[ukiel:/MP3/madplay-0.15.2b] wind% madplay greidernii_kovsh.aif

......
This continues on and on, after a while sound starts coming out, but
it's just scrambled garbage.
Has anyone managed to successfully run this thing on OSX 10.4? I have
a PowerMac G4 dual processor computer, plenty of memory and nothing
strange and heinous installed besides a bunch of FORTRAN compilers.
I.e. no other sound libraries or anything like that, so there is
really nothing for madplay to be fighting with.
TIA,
