I can run both kaboodle and noatun in R14. Both play
.wav, .mp3
and .ogg files
fine. I do NOT like the way noatun stays resident in systray. I
prefer kaboodle
for a one-shot play of a music file.
What about videos in kaboodle?
I am discovering that some user accounts can open both apps but
some accounts can't. On the accounts that I can open both, I can
get both to play audio files, but I can't get kaboodle to play
video files. Just hangs.
Check to make sure you have the needed codecs
installed.
The apps work in 3.5.13.2 so I don't think that is the problem.
Even if that was the problem, I'd expect the apps do just do
nothing rather than freeze and hang. I also would expect some spew
in the xsession-error log but there is nothing. I build all of my
packages with debugging enabled.
Deleting rc files makes no difference.
