Package: scummvm
Version: 0.6.0-1
Severity: normal
After some trial and error, I finally managed to get timidity up and
running. However, I'm having a hard time with scummVM and MIDI
(w/ both 0.6.0 and CVS).
When I start scummVM, everything looks normal, but I don't get any
MIDI output:
[fbriere] toroia:~ $ /var/tmp/fbuild.15535/scummvm/scummvm
tentacle
Looking for tentacle
Trying to start game 'Day Of The Tentacle'
ALSA client initialised [128:0]
WARNING: IMuse doCommand(6) - setMasterVolume (74)!
When I shut down scummVM, I'll suddenly hear the last note that it
was supposed to play, loud and clear. Then, if I start scummVM
again *right then* -- behold! the MIDI output now works perfectly:
[fbriere] toroia:~ $ /var/tmp/fbuild.15535/scummvm/scummvm
tentacle
ALSA lib pcm_hw.c:1155:(snd_pcm_hw_open) open
/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p failed: Device or resource busy
Looking for tentacle
Trying to start game 'Day Of The Tentacle'
WARNING: Sound mixer initialization failed!
ALSA client initialised [128:0]
WARNING: IMuse doCommand(6) - setMasterVolume (74)!
I need to restart scummVM right away for this trick to work; I suspect
it's the conflict on the sound device that makes it work.
Unfortunately, this means that to get MIDI to work, I have to give up
on the non-MIDI sounds. It ain't so bad with non-talkies, but with
games like DotT, I have to choose between the soundtrack and the
dialogue. :(
