Audio over HDMI does not work anymore
« on: December 30, 2013, 10:37:54 am »
Hi,

After doing a upgrade with the lastest pluto-boot-script and mce-diskless-tool (lmce 1004), audio over hdmi does not work anymore on 2 of my MDs (Ion and Ion2 motherboard).
I have try AVWizard to resolve those but have no success.

I also used the asound.conf.pbackup (it specifies the device in addition to the card, ex:plughw:0,3) on the MD but it does not solve anything.

Brief for the moment I do not understand what is happening.
Assistance would be welcome ;-)

Greetings
Philippe

Hello. I changed everything. However everything should work now much better... not expecting things to NOT work. Esp going through AVWizard.

cat /etc/asound.conf 
Paste here please.

Dropping into IRC would probably be very helpful, and a lot faster.

Hi,

I have no doubt that the changes needed to improve the system but for now it does not work for me. ;-)

Here the asound.conf for the 2 MDs:

Ion:
Code: [Select]
root@moon90:~# cat /etc/asound.conf
</etc/pluto/alsa/virtual_cards.conf>

pcm_slave.hdmi_convert48k {
        pcm "plughw:0"
        rate 48000
}

pcm.hdmi_playback {
        type plug
        slave hdmi_convert48k
}

pcm.asym_hdmi {
        type asym
        playback.pcm "hdmi_playback"
        capture.pcm "plughw:0"
}

pcm.!default asym_hdmi


Ion2:
Code: [Select]
root@moon20:~# cat /etc/asound.conf
</etc/pluto/alsa/virtual_cards.conf>

pcm_slave.hdmi_convert48k {
        pcm "plughw:"
        rate 48000
}

pcm.hdmi_playback {
        type plug
        slave hdmi_convert48k
}

pcm.asym_hdmi {
        type asym
        playback.pcm "hdmi_playback"
        capture.pcm "plughw:"
}

pcm.!default asym_hdmi

I've join the irc linuxmce channel (pga57)

Thank's for your help.

Philippe

I missed you.

I am here now. Something is going pretty wrong there.

Found it. Change line 284 from
if [[ "$AlternateSC" -ne "2" && "$AudioSetting" -ne "S" ]]; then
to
if [[ "$AlternateSC" -ne "2" && "$AudioSetting" != "S" ]]; then


Cannot do math with letters. DERP!

Your moon is weird... please make the change and take it through AVWiz again.

This is now solved. More things have been fixed. Everything should be happy happy happy. Repo will be updated in the next day or so.

Sorry for the breakage.
