Haiku cannot play any module music

[miqlas]

On current ( hrev51801 ) x86_64 Haiku i got troubles with module music files ( ​https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Module_file ). I got a bunch of .xm, .it, .mod, .s3m files but Haiku cannot play them.

1) MediaPlayer says they aren't media files
2) media_client plays silence
3) ffplay plays silence
4) mpd plays silence

I suppose it is something with libmodplug, but maybe it is something with the buffer size on ffmpeg side.

Here you can find plenty example files : ​https://modarchive.org/

Not tested on 32 bit yet.

Libmodplug is from 2004 and have no active development. It have plenty known bugs with different module formats, and it is in "deprecated" status.

OpenMPT is newer, have better error handling, and it even provides an ABI/API compatible library for libmodplug based programs so they can use it without any changes.

FFMPEG already provides integration for the OpenMPT library. Building FFMPEG with openMPT results in working module file playback in MediaPlayer.
