Regression Bug in Wine MM (Bug #817)
Eric, List, I have reported what appears to be a regression bug in Wine's multimedia subsystem (Bug #817). When running Baldur's Gate with recent builds of Wine, the game plays but without any sound. Earlier build ran the game with wine. The last known good build from CVS appears to be 2002-05-21 21:45:00 EDT. This looks like it may be related to the patch mmsystem.c commited by Alexandre Tue May 21 2002 - 20:52:31 CDT? I have attached the output from 'wine --debugmsg trace+relay Baldur.exe' to the bug report. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to assist in debugging this. Ian
I have reported what appears to be a regression bug in Wine's multimedia subsystem (Bug #817).
Correction: that should be Bug #818 does the attached patch cures the regression ? A+

That did the trick! Thank you very much. I noticed that you took ownership of this bug. I assume you'll handle closing the bug? Thanx Again, Ian

I recently resurrected Baldur's Gate (with the TOSC add on) and got it working pretty well here too (thanks all), with the one exception that as of CVS June 22, it still locks up after playing any movie. While I know you can truncate the movie files to get around this, I was wondering if anyone had an idea what was going on, or if I might be able to help you debug the problem. (Also I've been running BGMain.exe -- would it be better to be running Baldur.exe?)

Yeah, I've seen that too. I have noticed that if you run wine --debugmsg trace+relay, Baldur's Gate slows to a crawl, *but* it doesn't lock up after playing movies. Don't know if that helps any developers or not...
While I know you can truncate the movie files to get around this,
How do you do that?
(Also I've been running BGMain.exe -- would it be better to be running Baldur.exe?)
I don't know that there's that much difference, except that with Baldur.exe you get the haunting music at the beginning ;) Ian

Interesting -- wonder if it's timing or a different code path that's helping there. In any case I'm happy to help track this down too if I can.

I believe there are comments in the applications database under either Baldur's Gate or Baldur's Gate II, but basically, if you've got a lot of disk space, make a directory, change your .wine/conf to think that directory is the CD drive, and copy the cd1, cd2, etc. dirs from the CDs to that directory -- I just do it whenever the game asks for a new CD, but in that case (if the game's running) make sure you copy to a tmp name and then rename the directory so the game won't try to use the dir before it's finished. Once you've done that, then (for example), after you've seen the initial movie, you can "mv cd1/movies/moviecd1.bif cd1/movies/moviecd1.bif.real" and then "touch cd1/movies/moviecd1.bif". It won't play the movie again. That's about all I know -- I'm not sure whether the above disables that one movie, or many movies (I'm guessing maybe the latter), and I don't know where the "resting tent movie" is yet, so that hangs the game too. -- Rob Browning rlb @defaultvalue.org, @linuxdevel.com, and @debian.org Previously @cs.utexas.edu GPG=1C58 8B2C FB5E 3F64 EA5C 64AE 78FE E5FE F0CB A0AD

I mean, if you wait for a while (at least one minute), do you get some extra messages on console ? A+
