Hi, I'm trying to get the program
uniXM working so I can listen to XM radio in FC9. It uses QT 4.4 and phonon. I noticed a package has been released for QT 4.4.1 so I installed:
Qt toolkit (qt-1:4.4.1-2.fc9)
The shared library for the Qt 3 GUI toolkit
Development files for the Qt toolkit
Qt GUI-related libraries
I also installed the following for phonon:
Multimedia framework api (phonon-4.2.0.4.fc9)
Gstreamer phone backend
Xine phonon backend
Developer files for phonon
I realize this is probably a lot more than I need installed but I installed more as I was trying to get it to work... Anyway, I was able to compile and install uniXM but I get the following when I try to listen to something.
Code:
WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin could not be loaded
WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin could not be loaded
WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin could not be loaded
Phonon::createPath: Cannot connect Phonon::MediaObject(no objectName) to Phonon::AudioOutput(no objectName).
WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin could not be loaded
WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin could not be loaded
WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin could not be loaded
I found a bug report on the
Arch Linux Bugs site that recommended creating a symbolic link to the phonon backend so I tried what it said but I still get the same warnings when trying to listen to a XM station. After creating symbolic links, I have the phonon backend located in the following three places:
Code:
/usr/lib/kde4/plugins/phonon_backend
/usr/lib/qt-3.3/plugins/phonon_backend
/usr/lib/qt4/plugins/phonon_backend
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated!
