Right now I have Phonon working on windows with a DS backend. However, it will not play certain mp3 files and although it appears to be playing m4a files (the song progress bar keeps moving) no sound comes out. The application is built using PyQt4 on Windows and is aimed at Windows users.
I know that this is not the fault of my program as when I replaced a file with one that did not play normally with one that did, the song played perfectly. I have downloaded phonon vlc, and tried to build it, but I cannot get CMake to create a makefile. Whenever I try, it tells me that the dev-cpp gcc is not able to make a simple test file.
I also tried downloading clementine and amorak to see if I could get that to work, but I have had the same problems there as well. Has anyone run into this sort of problem before?
