Two issues. 1. Probable regression in Wine v1.2.2 and 1.2.3 (v 1.2 ok): - ACM / native WMP playback not working. Tried to upgrade to 1.2.3, then 1.2.2 and they both cause the player (1by1) to hang, nothing written to console. Revert back to v1.2 and acm works fine again. 2. Bug in Wine v1.3.x: - ACM / native WMP playback (using libmpg123) elapsed track time advances too quickly (nearly two

Hi there When I build wine-1.1.29 from source i get the error message: Code: configure: libmpg123 32-bit development files not found (or too old), mp3 codec won't be supported. I do not get this message when I build 1.1.28. I was trying that to make sure its not a problem with a missing package on my system. I am using Fedora 11 x86_64. I don't know of any libmpg123 devel package.

I'm having difficulties getting several different games to run in wine, namely the Japanese version (pre-translation-patch) of Cave Story/Doukutsu Monogatari. I don't think locale is the issue here, since I'm getting the same error no matter if I set up a Japanese locale or not. The backtrace when I try to run wine is: Code: --% wine Doukutsu.exe err:module:load_builtin_dll failed

hey all Here is what I get when I try to install utorrent on 64 bit arch linux, kernel version 2.6.33.4-1.

After following the instructions on the App page, I am having issues launching the launcher for Fallout New Vegas. It gives me the (splash?) image, and then crashes.

I love puppy... A LOT. It has offered me the fastest processing out of all the OS's I've tried, and it just works, with every PC! I first started using it for my Java servers. It was phenomenal, no issues, extremely fast. Then I eventually switched my main OS to puppy. I modded and played a game called 'Minecraft', another java based game... That was also, phenomenal. My suped

Greetings everyone. I installed wine this morning and I tried to install 3 programs, 2 were successfully installed, one is impossible to install at all. Let's start with what is perhaps the most famous, world of warcraft. I installed it just fine but launching the game is impossible. The launcher just disappear when I click on "play", using wine Wow.exe will result in wine trying to

Hi, We are in the business of developing/productizing Multimedia codecs for embedded systems. Recently, Vorbis has gained good popularity. We are also developing it. But we face few problems related to patents. Vorbis claims to be patent free. Is there any particular search made for possible patent infringements and corresponding report published? We need to convince our customers sometime

Hi all, <p>i have readed all the realy sad stuff about software patents in europe and what allread exists. There is one side related to speex and i dont know if this is allready discussed here. Take a look at: http://swpat.ffii.org/patents/effects/voip/index.en.html Is speex realy petant free or does patent free only means that is is not patent by the speex authors? Who have checked that

Does the reason Theora is relatively safe from patent infringement lawsuit have more to do with it actually not being encumbered, or is it because its use is decentralized? For example, FreeType is not patent-free, nor is Linux, yet they succeed because on the one hand, they are open source, and those who maintain them do not guarantee anything regarding patents, it is up to each individual user

Hi all, I am building an Asterisk PBX with voicemail and music on hold functions. An ISDN BRI line will also be available and G.729 IP-phones will be used. Are there patents rights applicable to France? Which licence could I use and how many ones are required (only one per phone or also for voicemail and MOH)?

Looks like the mpeg gestapo are frantically at work cracking down on mpeg projects. Several important projects (tsunami mpeg, gogo, faac, etc) were shut down by the jack booted patent nazis. Since FhG, mpegla, etc plan to start charging royalties on everything even remotely mpeg-related very soon, I expect a lot of interest is going to shift to Vorbis. And soon thereafter, I expect FhG to attack

Hi everyone. Reading all this posts about patent issues, I thought of something: if, by some wild chance FhG (or some other audio company) manages to prove in court that vorbis is breaking their patent rights, you could do something like LAME developers did: release only source code and let people do the compiling so that only users that are living in countries where patents on algorithms are

Hi folks, I was curious what's known about the patent situation with the DV format. Google turns up a number of press articles describing it as an "open standard with no associated licensing fees" but also, for example, US Patent number 5,691,81 which, while I've not done a careful comparison of the claims, sounds like it covers the block-rearrangement scheme that's the

Hi everybody, As the Asterisk community is getting larger and larger, I was wondering that the features which are provided in Asterisk and are programmed by the open source community under GPL, or GUIs like FreePBX which also come loaded with wonderful features and uses same Asterisk, are they anywhere violating any patent laws? Most of the features work the same way as Nortel, Avaya and other
