liquidsoap cannot decode mp3 & ogg

[Pujianto]

Hi there,
when I try : $liquidsoap 'output.icecast(%vorbis, host = "localhost", port = 8000, password = "hackme", mount = "default.ogg", mksafe(playlist("/home/username/radio/pl.m3u")))'
got error: Invalid value at line 1, char 16-22: No encoder found for that format.

P.S.: I used ubuntu 11.10 & liquidsoap default package for ubuntu 11.10 (liquidsoap 1.0.0-beta3).

regards,
puji

update: Solved, downgrade liquidsoap version to 0.9.2

For some reasons not yet fully understood, dynamic plugins loaded by liquidsoap do not properly declare their dependencies to the dynamic loaded, which results in errors such as:

2011/12/04 20:47:30 [dynamic.loader:2] Could not load plugin file /usr/lib/liquidsoap/1.0.0-beta3/plugins/lame.cmxs: error loading shared library: /usr/lib/liquidsoap/1.0.0-beta3/plugins/lame.cmxs: undefined symbol: id3tag_set_title.

Indeed:

dnch@ubuntu:~$ ldd /usr/lib/liquidsoap/1.0.0-beta3/plugins/lame.cmxs
        linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007fff925ff000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007f3a76530000)
        /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f3a76ae1000)

libmp3lame is missing from that list.

I have no other solution for now than to rebuild the package:

as root:
# apt-get build-dep liquidsoap
(you may need to enable some sources for packages' sources in
/etc/apt/sources.list)

Then as a user:
~ apt-get source liquidsoap
~ cd liquidsoap-<VERSION>
~ dpkg-buildpackage

Just a follow-up: recompiling the package itself will not help. You'd rather compile a local binary:

# apt-get build-dep liquidsoap
# apt-get source liquidsoap
~ cd liquidsoap-<VERSION>
~ ./configure
~ make
# make install

[Romain Beauxis (toots)]

Sorry, it should be:
~ apt-get source liquidsoap
in the above

Hi Romain,
thanks for the advice, I will try as soon as possible.

[michel jacobs (tepaard)]

works for me (ubuntu 11, desktop and laptop)
difference: i do not buildpackage but ./configure, make and make install

thanks!

This has been fixed in 1.3.3
