First, it seems like wine can't find the audio codecs, though it seems to find the video ones. Is this a to-be-implemented or a bug and any clues on where to look?
Is this in Solaris ?,
yes.
if so you wiould have to have OSS installed and even then I am not sure it would work properly.
I do have OSS installed (like Sun gives you a choice as far as audio drivers go), and it doesn't.
Investigating audio on Solaris I found that ACM was not happy unless the audio driver was available and installed properly otherwise it returns Device Busy.
I know there is a problem with 4front's devaudio emulation such that it will return an EBUSY if you open the device for READ and then WRITE (but it doesn't fail for WRITE, then READ) - they're too busy to fix the problem.
I do have a working Waveout Solution for native Solaris based on my libaudioio project. I've not tackled Direct Sound or Wavein yet. As yet this solution is not integrated with Wines Build environment so you can't set it up with configure. If you are prepared to grub through the relevant mods I can send you a patch kit.
actually, my main interest is to get the compressor(s) to work - don't care too much currently to get the audio working (mainly due to the fact that the audio drivers in solx86 is in such a sorry state). I'll be interested once I get the current CVS to work again.
