I know that people have gotten it to work on fedora 40. So I don't know if it's useful for me to install fedora and try to reproduce this. I wonder if you could give me more details. Have you tried different terminal emulators? have you tried different types of music files? |

Likely the problem is because you are trying to play .m4a (aac) files. I tried it on Fedora and had the same problem. Mp3 files work though. If you want to play .m4a files on Fedora you need ffmpeg the non "free" version, that is packages ffmpeg and ffmpeg-devel. Repositories for these need to be enabled and there should be guides online for how to do this. Then run make on kew again. |

I have made a change so that it does not crash but instead prints an error message when playing the .m4a file. Could be displayed in a prettier way, but for now this is better than crashing at least. This change is committed to the main branch. |
