xine patch to fix the issue

Description Benjamin K. Stuhl 2006-05-28 23:22:34 UTC 
Version:           SVN (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
Compiler:          gcc 4.1.1 
OS:                Linux

The new "do I have an mp3 decoder" check introduced in rev. 545330 also seems to fail on FLAC files... and so amaroK doesn't play them anymore.

not a real patch

The attached "patch" (not a fix!) demonstrates the problem: with out the patch,
none of my FLAC files play, but with it they all do.

Yes can confrim that here. 
It seems that this xine funtion does not work for flac files because in xine itselft it also says "has audio: no" while playing the audio fine.

This is a xine bug, testing a patch while I'm talking.

Remains the problem for the distributions that are not "on the loop" with xine, as a new release is unlikely ATM.

xine patch to fix the issue

This is the patch I've added to Gentoo's xine-lib and I'm sending upstream that
solves the issue.

Closing. Obviously not an amaroK bug.
