{{Package-Introduction|The Analog Realtime Synthesizer (aRts) enables the playing of multiple audio or video streams concurrently - be it on the desktop or over a network. ARts is a full-featured sound system and includes filters, a modular analog synthesizer, and a mixer. Its architecture allows developers to create additional filter plugins and users to apply sequences of filters using a graphical drag-n-drop approach. Video support is available for MPEG versions 1, 2 and 4 (experimental), as well as the AVI and DivX formats.

ARts is a core component of the KDE 3 desktop environment and provides the basis for the [[KdeMultimedia]] package. However, it can also be used independently of KDE (i.e. doesn't use Qt or [[KdeLibs]] for most things).|http://www.kde.org}}

== Dependencies ==

=== Required ===
* [[KDE Pre-Installation Configuration]]
* [[Qt3]]
* [[Glib2]]
=== Recommended ===
* [[libjpeg]]
=== Optional ===
* [[libvorbis]]
* [[ALSA]]
* [[Audio File]]
* [[libmad]]
* [[EsounD]]
* [[NAS]]
* [[MAS]]
* [[JACK]]

== Test Suite Note ==

The test suite can be run with:

 make check

It compiles and runs correctly with GCC 4.1.1, but it apparently does not work properly with earlier GCC 4.x versions.

== Non-Multilib ==

On x86_64, aRTS 'configure' fails to detect if the hardware provides MMX, SSE, 3DNOW! or floating point to int conversion instructions. Apply the following patch to allow aRts to use multimedia instructions and hardware float to int conversions on your x86_64 machine:

 patch -Np1 -i ../arts-{{aRts-Version}}-fix_mmx-1.patch

Correct error with new linux-headers:
 sed -i "39i\#include <linux/limits.h>" mcop/mcoputils.cc

Compile the package:

 ./configure --prefix=$KDE_PREFIX --disable-debug \
     --disable-dependency-tracking &&
 make

Install the package

 make install

== Multilib ==

=== 32Bit ===

Compile the package:

 CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD32}" USE_ARCH=32 PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}" \
     ./configure --prefix=$KDE_PREFIX --disable-debug --disable-dependency-tracking \
     --x-libraries=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib --with-qt-libraries=${QTDIR}/lib \
     --enable-libsuffix=none &&
 make

Install the package

 make install &&
 mv -v ${KDE_PREFIX}/bin/artsc-config{,-32}

=== N32 ===

Compile the package:

 CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILDN32}" USE_ARCH=n32 PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATHN32}" \
     ./configure --prefix=$KDE_PREFIX --libdir=${KDE_PREFIX}/lib32 --disable-debug \
     --disable-dependency-tracking --x-libraries=${XORG_PREFIX}/lib32 --with-qt-libraries=${QTDIR}/lib32 \
     --enable-libsuffix=32 &&
 make

Install the package

 make install &&
 mv -v ${KDE_PREFIX}/bin/artsc-config{,-n32}

=== 64Bit ===
