LiveCode 7.0.2 (RC1) in Ubuntu launch mplayer
to play sounds and videos.
As soon a video or audio stops playing, LiveCode
shuts down mplayer, except after playing MP3 media.
Everytime that I play a MP3 file using:
play vc mymp3file.mp3
mplayer open and play the sound, but
after checking Task Manager, mplayer
is still open. This only happen after
playing mp3 files.
Are you seeing this error while playing mp3 files
on Ubuntu using LiveCode?
I haven't tried that specific recipe, but I rarely have good results
with multimedia playback in LC, even as all the other playback tools I
use in Ubuntu perform marvelously, often handling more formats more
gracefully than Mac's QuickTime.
Related, I just discovered that merely setting the filename of a player
object to an MP3 causes LC to hang:

In my dream world every member of the IDE team would be required to
spend at least one day each week on Mac, Windows, and Linux, with the
remainder spent on whichever system they prefer.
Given that one of the strongest selling points of LiveCode is platform
independence, I believe this practice would allow platform-specific
issues to be identified and resolved much faster than through any other
means.
And given that issues are generally less expensive to fix the earlier in
the process they're discovered, this would likely be very cost-effective
as well.
