[Bug 25737] New: Battlezone 1 does not use CD Audio

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25737

Summary: Battlezone 1 does not use CD Audio
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.10
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

Terminal log after running bzone.exe

When installed from an original CD (from instructions on AppDB page), patched
to 1.4 (or even the newer 1.5Beta patch) Battlezone will play sound effects and
music from FMV, but will not access music from the original (mixed-mode) CD. 
There are a few difficulties with the game, though this is one that is, as far
as I can tell from testing, different from when it is installed in Windows XP. 
The game can obviously 'see' the CD as SP campaign can't be played without it
(and the videos play) but it doesn't play the background music audio tracks. 
On the CD, track 1 is the data track and 2-16 are the music tracks.

I have made sure that the mixed-mode CD is the lowest letter in winecfg (i.e.
it's the D: drive) and I have tried mounting the CD as a cue/bin file and using
winecfg to show that as the D: CD drive.  This doesn't make a difference.  I am
using Ubuntu 10.04 and this mounts the /media/BZONE disk (and you can see the
data) and seperately shows the Audio CD.

I include an attachment of the terminal log after running 'wine bzone.exe' -
the last 8 lines are the log from when the first FMV stops and the main BZ page
comes up - it is usually then when the background audio CD music kicks in.

Many Thanks

Can you relate this to bug #20555?
E.g. what happens when you try the work-arounds described there (symbolic link
in dosdevices/ for one, forcing winecfg to type CD-ROM instead of auto-detect
another one)?

Can you get Wine's mcicda test in dlls/winmm/tests/mcicda to play audio music
on your machine, with that app's CD or another one? (Either compile Wine
yourself, cd dlls/winmm/tests/; make mcicda.ok or download a winetest.exe
binary from test.winehq.org, extract the individual tests with -x then run
"winmm_test.exe mcicda").  Or use the MCI shell I mentioned.

If that doesn't help, please attach an +mci,+mcicda log.

This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for 11
months. Is this still an issue in current (1.4-rc5 or newer) wine? What about
the mcicda tests?

Ive done more testing and gotten to the bottom of this; basically there's a
version of Battlezone 1 online that is designed to be compatible with XP and
above. This must strip out a few things and is designed to be just run from the
harddrive. It doesn't even look to play the music cd.

Now the version that comes on the cd... if a drive is added to winecfg and set
to the mountpath of the mounted battlezone cd; music plays. Now there's jitter
and what not but music definitely works.

This bug can easily be closed.

> Battlezone 1 online [...] version that comes on the cd

Thanks for finding out about the difference.  They might as well have left in
the ability to play any audio-CD of your choice.  One app I know doesn't care.

I'm closing this bug, based on Christopher's comment, although Matt is the OP. 
Feel free to reopen if you have the CD version of the game and you configured
Wine's DOS drives such that mcicda works for you but you still get nothing from
that particular app.
> mountpath of the mounted battlezone cd

You can also run the mcicda test with that setting.
> there's jitter and what not

There are already other bugs in bugzilla about weird sound effects.  Please see
if it's one of those.  Do you experience this only with audio-CD?

When PulseAudio is running in Ubuntu Lucid, I can myself hear very strange
distortions while using mcicda to play an audio-CD.  That's partly PA's fault
(it's really broken in Lucid) and partly Wine's because it does not cope with
the huge latency that PA introduces.

BTW, you may consider filing a bug about wintest crashing in the attachment to
comment #4 (and give more details. I don't see why it crashed. The backtrace
looks odd).
