We're up to -8 now. If you noticed you skipped a few releases; you're right. Here's what happened:

The fork source moved from sourceforge to github. We had a new dependency. I fixed additional dependencies to enable more features. I had to tweak the PKGBUILD due to repo change.

-5, -6, and -7 were non-functioning PKGBUILDS due to having missed declared paths. Additionally, -5 had a dependency for shine that I later removed.

Things enabled:

SidPlay & AdPlug

I had issues with these last year when I tried them because....my testing for dependencies didn't check AUR.

The only things remaining disabled from when I adopted this are: sndio, tremor, shine. sndio was still causing issues with ALSA last I tried. Tremor and Shine are floating-point decoders for Vorbis and MP3; which we really don't need.

FYI,

This fork sees infrequent updates. I have not had to force a rebuild in several months. Please do not let a lack of activity indicate abandonment. I use this myself and notice within a day or two of big system updates if it breaks. Poke me at my email if you notice it breaks before I do and I'll get on it. Sometimes I'm lazy getting pacman to do it's thing.

Please do not mark the package as out of date, because mpd-sacd is a fork of regular MPD

Hello.

Please specify the repository commit that the package builds on in PKGBUILD, e.g. like this:

_commit=12345
source=("mpd-sacd::git+https://github.com/manisiutkin/MPD.git#commit=$_commit"
...

Currently latest commit fails to build with error:

Run-time dependency libpsgplay found: NO  (tried pkg-config and cmake)

../src/decoder/plugins/meson.build:198:17: ERROR: Dependency "libpsgplay" not found (tried pkg-config and cmake)

If you want to always follow the latest commit, you should instead rename the package to mpd-sacd-git and add pkgver() function to the PKGBUILD, e.g.:

pkgver() {
  cd mpd-sacd
  printf 'r%s.%s' "$(git rev-list --count HEAD)" "$(git rev-parse --short=7 HEAD)"
}

For more, see package sources and pkgver() function.

Thank you.

The git sources moved to GitHub. PKGBUILD was updated to reflect this.

Also added some new dependencies to enable a few more things. If the AUR dependency doesn't work as expected; then you'll probably see a jump from -5 to -6 while I work on it.

rel4 changes nothing and is just to force a rebuild due to core library upgrades.

dewdude commented on 2025-10-11 21:16 (UTC)

rel3 fixes my mistake on the hash for the conf file. I noticed this because recent updates changed 'fmt' and broke current builds.

dewdude commented on 2025-10-07 20:37 (UTC)

Everyone should be getting release 2. Sorry bout that.

This resolves more dependencies, uses newer ffmpeg, and re-enables DVD-Audio output.

Make sure your database exists before launching with systemd or you will get a timeout error. Also make sure you uncomment and configure your device in /etc/mpd.conf if this is your first time installing.

dewdude commented on 2025-10-07 15:55 (UTC)

You guys never got rel2 because I'm an idiot and forgot .SRCINFO needed to be updated.

But recent FFMpeg updates broke mpd-sacd entirely. This may be a case where we need to go back to FFMPEG4 to prevent breaking changes. I will look in to this this evening (7-OCT-2025 UTC-4) and hopefully get all the proper updates up tonight.

DVD-Audio however has been tested and works fine. So it's getting re-enabled.

@dewdude: Thank's for the response. Hope somebody can pick this up and make it possible. rgds,

dewdude commented on 2025-09-14 04:18 (UTC)

@Anjo448: It's possible; however that in my opinion would be best suited for a fork as that changes core functionality. I will not be adding it to the AUR version; it will mostly track the existing version.
