I recently installed the flac-encoder package for Vivid, but cannot rip cd's. The log file gives me this error message:

Code:

ERROR: ADDON: Could not locate audioencoder.flac.so

It looks like Kodi may be looking in the wrong place for the encoder as aac is working correctly, but is pre-installed. Is anybody else having similar problems?

Cheers, Bez

Post your complete Debug Log

[fritsch]

And also the encoder you have installed - use: dpkg -l

[BezZeMad]

Debug Log I'm using the Vivid kodi-audioencoder-flac from the Stable PPA (1.0.0-1~vivid ).

Everything seems to be there. Where does Kodi look for it?

EDIT: I've manually checked through Caja (just in case dpkg was at fault) and can confirm that audioencoder.flac.so is indeed where it claims to be.

na, the so files are in wrong dir

should be in /usr/lib/kodi/addons/audioencoder.flac/

either copy them there or symlink them.

or better yet, uninstall that and build from source.

That's sorted it, thanks!
As I installed if from the PPA that's probably a bug in the .deb file. Shall I report that through launchpad?

[un1versal]

No, that was already solved in packaging (I know because it was me reported this bug on another unrelated binary addon visualization.shadertoy), wsnipex needs only to push new packages to be built to ppa that contain the updated stuff.

see http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=...pid2011704 and http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=...pid2012676 and others onwards.

If you compile that will be fixed also.

When Kodi is patched to recognize multiarch then this wont be an issue either, but thus far no one has done that in any PR. So probably v16 Jarvis or after.

Ping wsnipex.
