Idea #18349: There is no universal way to play module audio formats

Written by Dinth the 28 Feb 09 at 11:34. Related project: GStreamer. Status: New
Rationale
There are some module plugins for particular audio players like XMMS or Audacious but they are player-depended, so there isn't any way to play modules on next-generation players like Banshee, Rhythmbox or Amarok (Amarok have very simple mod support by xine but it is very buggy).

Bring good support for modules to Gstreamer - at least mod, it, s3m and xm formats

Solution #2: Bring support for UADE to Gstreamer

UADE is most accurate player (but it can be used as plugin) for MOD file format and also dozens of other, more exotic formats which arent supported by any other player/library

Solution #3: Bring support for libmikmod and/or libmodplug and/or UADE for Phonon

Like above, but for KDE4 users - it would be great to play module file formats natively with Phonon, for example using Amarok.
