Linux and the Constant problems

Post by Juan Carlos »

Yes, now with the Constant #SNDFMT_MP3 also gives problem, I could see that Linux Mint and the Hollywood constant are one problem.

As already said here, you need to tell us the exact version of Linux Mint you're using. Otherwise it's impossible to help you. If the constant isn't there, then the plugin probably doesn't load at all. But it's only possible to examine this issue if you post your exact Linux Mint version.

I apologize, but sometimes with so much talk about MCVE, I don't take you seriously anymore, so I'm asking in case any other user has had a similar problem and found a solution.
But the Linux Mint that current I use is:
22.3 Cinnamon 64 bit with Linux core 6.17.0-23 and desktop environment Cinnamon 6.6.7

Ok, so I've tried it with this image from a USB stick and it works fine. Here's the MCVE I used:

Code: Select all

@REQUIRE "mp3enc"
DebugPrint(#SNDFMT_MP3)
End
Can you save the MCVE I posted above as a file named "test.hws" and then run Hollywood from a console like this:

Code: Select all

./Hollywood test.hws
And then post Hollywood's output here please...

Well the results is that compiling your MCVE gives the error of: Loading plugin mp3enc...failed
the plugin is the correct version of Linux x64 and with other plugins there aren't this problem only with mp3 and ogg encoders.
I can't make the test with command line prompt, but making the executable the problem showed. And compiling for other Linux like x86 too.

Hello.

I just tried running the MCVE both as a script and compiled for Debian x64 and in both cases I got the same debugprint: 2134734247

Humm, very strange that in my Linux Mint gives this problem, because I have update it, not as my Windows 7.

Remember that if you compile the script, you need to enable debug output, which is disabled by default when compiling. Otherwise, when you execute the compiled MCVE, you'll only get the black display briefly and nothing else.
