@torrente If you want faster compilation, change PKGBUILD to use "make -j$(nproc)"

@torrente making -bin pkgbuild of user compiled Arch packages isn't welcome at all

torrente commented on 2022-07-09 04:38 (UTC)

Please keep an amarok-bin AUR, containing the versions you compile...

However, once loaded it won't play any music files. Library scan went fine, but any file gets queued for play and then there is no output (and no progress indicating that amarok thinks something is playing either).

This could be caused by missing the proper codec packages for your audio files. This package does not list any codecs as dependencies, presumably because the Phonon API allows you to choose one of two backends (phonon-qt5-gstreamer or phonon-qt5-vlc), and the codecs are technically dependencies of the backend. The Arch Wiki article about KDE includes a section about Phonon which explains how this works.

Consult the Wiki's article about codecs to figure out which packages you will need to play your files. Be sure to check the section about backends near the bottom and follow the links that are relevant to the backend you chose when installing Phonon. (GStreamer was the default selection when last I checked.) You may need to restart Amarok after installing the codecs.

I had the same experience as internetfox and needed to set DBusActivatable=false in /usr/share/applications/org.kde.amarok.desktop to get it loading from the desktop icon. However, once loaded it won't play any music files. Library scan went fine, but any file gets queued for play and then there is no output (and no progress indicating that amarok thinks something is playing either).

I have also experienced the The name org.kde.amarok was not provided by any .service files error. I was able to work around this error by changing DBusActivatable=true to DBusActivatable=false in the desktop file that I use to launch Amarok (/usr/share/applications/org.kde.amarok.desktop by default).

Anyone getting The name org.kde.amarok was not provided by any .service files when trying to launch amarok?

Thanks for letting me know. I'll apply the patch ASAP (maybe Monday).

There's a merge request upstream that makes the build work again (at least when applied as a patch on top of current Git master): https://invent.kde.org/multimedia/amarok/-/merge_requests/45

hi, this one fails to build against the new ffmpeg 5.0, could you use ffmpeg4.4 ?
