better yet, grab this file..< xmms-wma >
Be sure to remove the .html off the end of the file, and install as a normal .dsl
And just to let you know, I got the pageful of errors as well when compiling.

There were a lot of dependancies needed, so I don't know if having onlygcc g++ make was enough to satisfy the build.
But I didn't study the makefile enough..
I found this in an experimental repository for debian apps,
and rebuilt it into a .dsl file with the dependencies included ..
Works fine for me, sometimes , others I get a fault...
wma files do play fine in mplayer...

Gdk-WARNING **: locale not supported bx C libary libmikmod.so.2: cannot open share file: not file or directory /usr/lib/xmms/libcdread.so: undefined symbol: playlist_undefined_shuffle_list libGL.so.1: cannot open share object file: no such file or directory |

1. Your missing a lib it would like to see.. libmikmod.so.22. libGL.so.1 = Open GL graphics for XFree86 xserver.. doesn't exist in DSL ..
Having it will not offer any benefit, I believe..
3. From LiveCD ? xmms can't write a cd playlist .. no biggie..
4. The locales were probably stripped out when DSL was mastered
If you try to run a wma in xmms froma shell, you get a nice message from
XMMS about "You have found a bug ! "
Oh Joy !Again, mplayer for wma files..

Until one of us come up with something better....There is a long string of issues regarding compiling these plugins
at xmms.org.
Also, I found this plugin which claims to have wma wmv support
Show details avi-xmms

About: avi-xmms is a plugin for XMMS to play files supported by avifile library, formats supported is avi (including DivX) and asf. It is able to resize movies with aspected ratio, fullscreen and lots of other useful features like seekbar in fullscreen.
Changes: * Included a stripped version of avifile 0.53.5 that compiles staticly into the plugin. This will make avi-xmms work no matter what avifile version you have installed on the system.
* Added wma and wmv support.
