Q

What is Moc on Ubuntu?

A

Music on Console (MOC) is a ncurses-based console audio player for Linux/UNIX. It was written in C language. The console-based feature of this audio player comes with many advantages which are: simple yet powerful interface, low memory utilization.

Q

Should MOC Continue To Support OpenBSD?

A

I've been working recently on bringing MOC up to the currently common C99 and POSIX.1-2001 standards. However, the road block I keep running into is with OpenBSD.

Q

Are We Nearly There Yet?

A

Those of you who have been watching the SVN HEAD might have had the feeling that not much has been happening over the past six months. But over that period many, many hours have been spent interrogating under bright lights those historical bugs which remained in order to fix as many of them as possible before the release of MOC 2.5.0.

Q

How to Report Bugs Effectively?

A

I'll be having more to say on what I would like to see in MOC bug reports after version 2.5 is out and I have more time to do so, but I recently reread an essay by Simon Tatham and it agrees with much of what I would have to say.

Q

Is MOC 2.5.2 and 2.6-alpha3 Released?

A

The infamous stuttering problem which makes long-playing audio sound like a broken record under some circumstances has finally been traced to ALSA's dmix component. So the circumvention for the ALSA stutter bug has been included in both the latest 2.5.2 maintenance and 2.6-alpha3 development releases which are now available.
