[Sugar-devel] Sugar-devel Digest, Vol 58, Issue 47

[David Leeming]

Tony,

Can we massage this into a process that provides us with all the rpms needed
for offline install in a folder, eliminating the need to be online with
every XO - only the first one used to grab the rpms?

And then script that runs as below but replaces the yum installs with
offline install - such as rpm -ihv *.rpm  ?? Can everything including the
mime-types be managed in one script? 

How would 13.2.0 differ from 13.1.0? We really don't want to go down the
road of changing Activity versions. 

This would then be run on any freshly installed XO (13.1.0  or we can jump
to 13.2.0 if its easier) in one step from a flashdrive.....

Finally - why is it so difficult to do something that is often the first
thing teachers and students ask - can they play videos and music (on their
own terms). It's a barrier to uptake!!! 

I admit my frustration may be mostly out of ignorance, and would be very
happy to be corrected or enlightened! 

David

Hi,

I use the following script to supply the codecs:

#!/usr/bin/bash

#script to enable mp3,mp4

sudo cp libgstmad.so /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10
sudo chmod 755 /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstmad.so
sudo cp libmad.so.0 /usr/lib
sudo chmod 755 /usr/lib/libmad.so.0
sudo cp libgstfaad.so /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10
sudo chmod 755 /usr/lib/gstreamer-0.10/libgstfaad.so
sudo cp libfaad.so.2.0.0 /usr/lib
sudo chmod 755 /usr/lib/libfaad.so.2.0.0
sudo yum install gstreamer-ffmpeg-0.10.13-8.fc18.i686.rpm
sudo ldconfig
sudo rm -rf /home/olpc/.gstreamer-0.10/registry.i386.bin
gst-inspect

This works for gstreamer 0.10.

The 13.2.0 Jukebox uses gstreamer 1.0 but 13.2.0 also installs gstreamer 
0.10.

The simplest solution may be to delete Jukebox and install version 26 
from ASLO.

In addition, the applicable mime-types need to be added in

/home/olpc/Activities/Jukebox.acivity/activity

to activity.info.

I added video/mp4;audio/mp4;video/webm;audio/aac;

I was able to play a sample mp3 clip, a sample m4a (mp4 audio) and  Khan 
Academy videos in mp4, m4v, and webm formats.
