Debian: audio player problem:

[Waqar]

Hi,

I've installed the latest version (0.6.6) (clean install:
removed .zekr directory too)

The flashplayer just doesn't show up so. I had the same problem with
version 0.6.5 The other parts work perfectly, just no audio.

I do have the flashplayer installed (9.0.0.48) and other sites work,
like youtube and so on. If I try to open the player.swf file directly
in firefox, I just get a waiting sort of animated symbol.

zekr.log doesn't have any errors. How can I help in debugging it.

I do have the unstable version of debian installed.

Can you watch movies on www.youtube.com?

Run the following command:
dpkg --get-selections > MySelection
and send MySelection to us.
Besides please run the following command and let us know the result:
uname -a

Best,
Mohammad

Yes, I can watch movies on youtube.com

uname -a
Linux wam 2.6.22-2-686 #1 SMP Fri Aug 31 00:24:01 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/
Linux

I'll try to send the MySelection file. I can't seem to attach any file
with this

Thanks.

Salaam,

I have the same version of flashplayer plugin. It doesn't work. I've
also tried versions of flashplugin from experimental and from debian-
multimedia. None of the work.

There is no error in zekr.log pertaining to this. Is it possible to
enable more verbose logging for zekr.

Do you have xullrunner or firefox-dev packages? Once I had problems
with flash mp3 player with one (or both) of these packages.

No :)

No error can be detected regarding flash plugin, since this is
completely handled at the browser level.

Try to open a generated HTML file from ~/.zekr/cache/mixed/*.html
inside your Firefox, and tell us if mp3 player is shown or not.

[Waqar]

If I look at the cached file when zekr is closed, I loose all
stylesheet. That now seems obvious as you serve everything through
127.0.0.1

If zekr is opened, and I open the cached page in firefox, it looks
beautiful, and the flashplayer works, and I can listen to the audio.
BUT within zekr, there isn't any flashplayer.

Thanks for the help.

Also, if I open the cached file in any other browser, I can't see the
player. It's visible only in firefox.

How about any of these packages:
1. xullrunner
2. firefox-dev
3. mozilla-dev

Do you have any?

[Waqar]

xulrunner : no

Debian unstable doesn't have the other two packages: so no to all.

also, the equivalent to mozilla-dev, i.e. iceape-dev is also not
installed

Thanks everyone. I've solved the problem. Zekr seems to be using the
libraries installed at /usr/lib/xulrunner and not the firefox
libraries. On my machine Xulrunner is not installed but libxul is as
its a dependency of zekr.

copying the flashplayer plugins from the firefox libraries to the
xulrunner library solves the problem.

[Mohsen Saboorian]

Waqar, can you tell me what was the libraries needed, and where you copied them?

The folder location is /usr/lib/xulrunner/plugins

The files required are flashplayer.xpt and libflashplayer.so

I made a link to the files in /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/ and that
solved the problem in debian.

Note: the same symbolic links are made in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/
and /usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins/ and /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/
