Anyone have any issues that should hold up the 1.0.6 release for this
Friday?

I've been struggling with 1.0.6b1 on Ubuntu Oneiric, Firefox 11. It
will intermittently report the following when loading a (rather large)
movie from a local webserver URL:

Kurt,

Do you have gnome-mplayer also installed? It does not appear that you do
or at least not in the path.

I do. It's in /usr/local/bin, which is in my path:

dat@player:/usr/local/bin$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/dat/player/bin:/dat/bin

Note that the first video plays fine, then the JavaScript basically reloads the page (empties a DIV's content and re-populates it) to start the second. The output below is from the second attempt at playing.

It is not repeatable, however. Sometimes, the failure happens on the first play.

Well, I'm not seeing gnome-mplayer launched in the log. You should see
something where it is launched and the gnome-mplayer should report its
version in the output. Also, the service errors are not normal, and what
that means is that gnome-mplayer is not running and dbus cannot find
something listening for those messages.

So my recommendation...

remove gecko-mediaplayer, gnome-mplayer, and gmtk...

start with gmtk, then do gnome-mplayer and then gecko-mediaplayer

For each one do the following

make clean
./configure (with your options)
make
make install (as root)

That should fix your problem, unless you didn't uninstall all the
gnome-mplayer pieces.

Cleaning up now and trying once more. For giggles, I'll put everything in /usr this time.

1.0.6b1 appears to work when everything is installed in /usr. gmtk, however, dropped its includes in /usr/include/gmtk/, and both gnome-mplayer and gecko-mediaplayer were unable to find gmlib.h unless I configured as follows:

gnome-mplayer : CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/gmtk ./configure [myFlags]
gecko-mediaplayer: CXXFLAGS=-I/usr/include/gmtk ./configure [myFlags]

Ok, I'll look into that. I know I made a change to that recently in SVN.

BTW, what is the output of the following commands

pkg-config --cflags gmlib

pkg-config --cflags gmtk


I get


pkg-config --cflags gmlib
-I/usr/include/gmtk

pkg-config --cflags gmtk
-I/usr/include/gmtk

Which should be what you are getting.

Interesting. I get:

$ pkg-config --cflags gmlib
-I/usr/local/include/gmtk  
$ pkg-config --cflags gmtk
-I/usr/local/include/gmtk  

I'll try a rebuild later and see if the issue was a one-off oddity.

You probably have gmlib.pc and gmtk.pc files that are stale on your
disk. Most likely from a previous install. So remove those and it should
fix up your issue.

Kevin -

An update. Further (extensive) experimentation shows that both
1.0.6b1 and 1.0.6 produce the errors I documented earlier. I am
running Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric) and Firefox 11.0.

I finally gave up, after re-compiling with as many permutations as
I could think of and adding and removing various packages from the
machine. Going back to 1.0.5, the combination of gmtk, gnome-mplayer,
and gecko-mediaplayer perform perfectly.

It looks like there is an issue in 1.0.6. Perhaps the following
errors, logged in .xsession-errors only under 1.0.6, can provide some
insight:

unity-2d-launcher: [WARNING]
QDBusError("org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownMethod", "Method "Xids"
with signature "" on interface "org.ayatana.bamf.application" doesn't
exist

Kurt,

Well the below are not gnome-mplayer related messages so I'm not sure
why it is so different. The funny thing is that between 1.0.5 and
1.0.6 nothing was changed between the messaging.

Can you show me you 1.0.5 and 1.0.6 gmtk configure outputs. I'm
thinking that it might be related to something with base
configuration, but I'm not sure what it can be yet. 1.0.6 works great
on my two machines.

Kevin

Kurt,

Looking back thru your previous emails, I'm wondering if there is some
problem with your build system.. So lets try this.

uninstall gecko-mediaplayer, gnome-mplayer and gmtk. Then do this.

find /usr -name "*gmtk*" -print

and

find /usr -name "*gmlib*" -print

If anything comes up you should use your judgement and delete gmtk and
gmlib files. Then do a 1.0.6 install from scatch, doing a make clean
for each module.

I had a similar issue with gnome-mplayer and gecko-mediaplayer 1.0.5 where second movie in the same div would not be played, but no errors were reported.
In processes I see gnome-mplayer process, but it seems that mplayer doesn't start the second time.

Website?

Enable verbose debugging in gnome-mplayer, start firefox from a terminal
with all other instances of firefox closed and open the site. An error
log should be printed giving you a hint as to what is going on or post
it here or as an issue in the bug tracker and I'll take a look at it.

When I've experienced that issue, increasing the cache size available to the plugin (through gnome-mplayer) has resolved it.
