Hmmmm might not be all that easy to play a WMA lossless file
There is a bash way to convert them I found, might be better to make a gui that is link to mimes and when you click on a wma it converts it to wav and plays it in any old player. Simple and yet doesn't break any laws. Most of the readings I've read they've been talking about compiling media players with a MS dll which you would have to illegally provide to support it. So really the gui is probably the best method.

Never tried it on beep media player, I just know there are sources for wma plugin, but from what I've read, it probably wouldn't work. does anyone have a WMA lossless they could tar.gz and upload on here and I could try it on 2.14X.

gxine on 2.14x could play WMA lossless if you included MS dll /usr/lib/win32/wma9dmod.dll
lol I googled the dll and found it at http://www.nodevice.com/dll/wma9dmod_dll/item19358.html
and tossed it into /usr/lib/win32 and it works too bad its illegal to distribute it.
you can find a test file at http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/A-codecs/lossless/
it wouldn't work without the dll, once it was installed it played perfect.

Forget beep media player, it doesn't work with wma and the plugin and even the dll install, it just crashes.

Thanks ttuuxxx. I am pretty sure it is in w32codecs--I posted a link to that on medibuntu in a message above.gxine on 2.14x could play WMA lossless if you included MS dll /usr/lib/win32/wma9dmod.dll

Foobar2000 which we have in PPM will play WMA Lossless I am informed, so we are covered.
I think I can produce a VLC 1.1.7 (later today)--if you would like I will produce a 'Full' version with the 21MB of locales, if you wanted to produce a 'streamlined' version Mine will be over 30MB complete (as a pet)--how small can you get yours and still play everything?
Mine is based on a slackware package, btw. Don't forget that you have to disable that don't run as root nuisance.

sure I'll make a streamlined version, The difference between my last build and Barry's is that my version played more file types due to the extra format libs I added.playdayz wrote:Thanks ttuuxxx.

But really we should work on that script I posted the link and make a converter, it would be really tiny and give us extra formats, its better to be compatible legally out of the box than not at all.
maybe someone should try the WMA Lossless file on foobar first maybe what was tried was wma which gxine/mplayer can play its the Lossless format where you need the dll

About guvcview-1.4.4. I started to wonder the size and i checked the contents. I had packaged ntfs3g driver with it. I just cant imagine how that has happened.
Too tired probably when I had done the packages and tens of folders open. Too many anyway. Sorry for the mispackaged pet.
I reuploaded the package and I upload it here also.
Difference to 01mickos compile is that jack and libjack files are not included. Only libs needed for guvcview.

You beat me to it!
Here's a pet with part of the w32codec player package, . This allows gnomeplayer to play wma lossless. I'm still sifting through the main package as when the whole lot's installed vlc also will play wma lossless. I'll also test with other players.

Using links that I didn't make and just googled is ok, but posting them on here actually is placing them on http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/ makes john murga inadvertently breaking the law by hosting them. Maybe you should delete them by editing the post.666philb wrote:You beat me to it!

Its not so bad if there was a linux alternative, but these files are actual Ms system files. And we all know what bastards they are.

Ahh well, it's a shame because gnomeplayer, vlc and amarok were all working with them. But foobar works with wma lossless, and can convert them to flac/mp3 or what ever you want.

Thanks for doing the right thing I also think sometimes it sucks doing the right thing, but it keeps us honest, well that's about the only reason, its not that I care about MS goods and services one bit, but I would hate to see you or john get your knuckles raked over the coals.666philb wrote:Ahh well, it's a shame because gnomeplayer, vlc and amarok were all working with them.

Announcing Luci 253 - The Most Leading-Edge Lucid Ever
Here's bmp music player, it plays ogg and mp3 files well at least.

Here is VLC 1.1.7 Full, with Native Language Support (aka The Whole Enchilada, or in Australian, The Full Monte).
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Guvcview. We need help testing. Here is a Guvcview I made with Ubuntu binaries. There is also Pemasu's version on previous page (p.30).
If you have a web cam, please test and post your results. Also test luvcview please. Thank you.

Do we have a Wine expert on staff?
I *was* able to play the wma lossless test file on foobar2000. I installed wine 1.3.13 and then foobar2000 from PPM. Then I tried to play the cut but got an error message: Microsoft Media Runtime components are not installed.
I found that the pretty winetricks interface did not work correctly (I enabled that not green_dome), so I did winetricks from the command line--first I installed d3dx9_42 but that did not help. Then I installed wmp9--I got an error but after that foobar would play the test track. I am still not sure exactly what I should install.

Firefox 4.0 is released . They call it rc1 but it shows 4.0.
Here is XFE a nice traditional file manager--nice and fast It also has an automatic Recycle Bin. I have been thinking that is the most glaring omission in Puppy from the standpoint of usability expectations from users. XFE and LXTerminal were prepared by billtoo.
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/dis ... ucid52.pet
And then here is lxterminal (from the LX desktop). we also have Roxterm in the PPM--both use vte. I notice that we also have the LX Task manager.
