Hey, I tried to run MOC but it launch an error:
Running the server…
Trying JACK…
Trying ALSA…
mocp: alsa.c:319: alsa_read_mixer_raw: Assertion `RANGE(0, vol, 100)’ failed.

FATAL_ERROR: Server exited!

Any hints?

I don’t know if there is.
You should check its documentation to see if the custom tweaks you intend making are supported.

Great player. Any way to link ranger (console file manager with VI key bindings) to launch mocp – the ALSA plug-in? (Since ranger ships with rifle, a file launcher that is good at automatically finding out which program to use for what file type, the solution might be here).

I can’t install it I gat this error:

Package moc is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package ‘moc’ has no installation candidate
E: No se ha podido localizar el paquete moc-ffmpeg-plugin

Someone?

Well, I’m glad you got to finally test it out. MOC is my preference but I think mplayer offers more customization features, right?
