uhm, what about the Sound plugin in the Plugins ? O.o

[fabioamd87]

there isn't a sound for a new mail?

[ADRez]

done and attached!

the sound for new mail must be "newemail"

[lukeluke]

i put the Sound.py in .config/emesene1.0/pluginsEmesene/
i close the emesene program but when i reopen it, in the plugin i don' t see the Sound plugin.....

what can i do

THANKS

Bye

I think you should put the plugin in /usr/share/emesene/plugins_base/, maybe that's the problem

Even if doing that you get the error, if you launch emesene from a terminal you should one line: Sound plugin couldn't be initialized (or something like that )
Above this line there should be a python traceback, post it here

[fabioamd87]

i feature that i miss is, when you receive a mail when you aren't running and after you open emesene, it will not be noticed...

[lukeluke]

ok thanks!!! 

This is my output:

The problem is:

Plugin plugins_base.Sound could not be initialized
Reason: playbin
The connect operation timed out

I don't know if it's because you have to install some package else or update emesene.
Are you using svn? And do you have python-gst installed?

[lukeluke]

i have the repository in my apt on kubuntu 7.10, and you update daily....

i have this problem from the first installation, yes i have the python-gst installed on my box. :-)

THANKS

Bye

[lukeluke]

have you any idea ?

i have tried on my laptop with kubutu 7.10 ( fresh installation ) but nothing in the plugin menu i don't see the sound plugin ! :-(

THANKS A LOT

Bye

I would say that you're missing some gstreamer package. These are the packages I have installed here and the Sound plugin works fine:

Code:

gstreamer0.10 0.10.15-1
gstreamer0.10-alsa 0.10.15-1
gstreamer0.10-base 0.10.15-1
gstreamer0.10-gconf 0.10.6-1
gstreamer0.10-gnomevfs 0.10.15-1
gstreamer0.10-good 0.10.6-1
gstreamer0.10-mad 0.10.6-1
gstreamer0.10-ogg 0.10.15-1
gstreamer0.10-python 0.10.9-1
gstreamer0.10-ugly 0.10.6-3
gstreamer0.10-vorbis 0.10.15-1

[lukeluke]

yes! i have installed all the plugin and extensions of the gstreamer package. Now it works!

THANKS

Bye
