1 Hello Everyone,
2
3 I am trying to play mpc files in mplayer but get the following error while
4 doing so
5
6 ==========================================================================
7 Requested audio codec family [musepack] (afm=mpcdec) not available.
8 Enable it at compilation.
9 Cannot find codec for audio format 0x2043504D.
10 Read DOCS/HTML/en/codecs.html!
11 ==========================================================================
12
13 Here are the USE flags when I compile mplayer and the relevant output after
14 configure gets completed

36 Now, it clearly shows that musepack is one of the optional codecs but how do I
37 enable it to compile with mplayer? I have tried installing various musepack
38 related packages so that mplayer's configure detects mpc support but in vain.

43 [ebuild R ] media-sound/musepack-tools-1.15v +16bit -esd -static 0 kB

45 No relevant use flags seem to be there in the ebuild. What should I do? Any
46 ideas will be highly appreciated.
