Description Chris Denice 2021-06-01 14:31:13 CEST
Description of problem:

With out current version of "audacious", there is only the Qt interface available. This one crashes on the Ladspa plug-in.

1) File -> Settings -> Plug-ins

2) Select LADSPA Host, try clicking on the "gear" to actually select a ladspa filter. A blank window appears preventing any selection


I've tested locally audacious-4.1, the problem is still there. However, audacious-4.1 allows to use the Legacy GTK interface instead of the QT one. And, doing so, selecting the "LEGACY GTK" interface on the menu Settings-> Appearence, allows to open the LADSPA window. But with the version we currently have on mga8, that is impossible.

Bug reported upstream as well:

Thanks for the report, research and the upstream bug. Can you report back here when you learn it is fixed?

We already have 4.1 in Cauldron, which with your work-around:
"allows to use the Legacy GTK interface instead of the QT one. And, doing so, selecting the "LEGACY GTK" interface on the menu Settings-> Appearence, allows to open the LADSPA window"
enables people to get by.

Assigning to DavidG who currently maintains this thing. It seems advantageous to push 4.1 despite the Upstream status.

Comment 4 Frédéric "LpSolit" Buclin 2023-06-04 18:52:30 CEST
Could the RPM be updated to audacious 4.3.1? Per https://audacious-media-player.org/news/56-audacious-4-3-released, it has a PipeWire output plugin, and supports GTK3 as well as Qt6. It's a pity to release 4.2.
Comment 5 Morgan Leijström 2024-04-24 20:27:26 CEST
Audacious is in mga9 release repo.

Please reopen if there is still the same problem.
