Here are some observations done during the strive of making phplay (under
Photon/QNXRTP) play some music!
The sound card is stated (by Windows 2000) to be: ESS Maestro PCI Audio
(WDM)
My computer is a Dell Latitude CPx with 256 Mbyte RAM and a 650MHz Intel 686
I’m using QNXRTP as downloaded from www.get.qnx.com on 26th. sept 2000
(I downloaded the CD image and made an installation CD)
----- STARTING THE AUDIO DRIVER -----
#/sbin/deva-solo
This is the driver with the closest match to my soundcard according to qnx
web info.
Is this the correct driver?
----- STARTING THE MediaPlayer ------
phplay -p mpegaudio.so -r file:///usr/birdstep/cdarc/mp3/smooth.mp3
Unable to find mpsettings file
snd_ctl_open error: No such file or directory
Loaded DLL 0x08086dc4 ‘mpegaudio.so’
MvInit() succeeded
snd_pcm_open failed: No such file or directory
snd_ctl_open error: No such file or directory
phplay error dialog: "Player Error: Could not connect to the audio driver.
May not be running.)
----- STARTING THE Mixer ------
#mixer
mixer error dialog: “Mixer Error: Unable to open/read control - No such file
or directory”
------ Checking the PCI status ------
#/usr/sbin/pci
