[hanafi]

during my installation of LinuxMCE 1404 I managed to configure my sound through HDMI in awizard
once orbiter no sound
My assound.conf and asound.template.conf its ok
help me please

[Marie.O]

How did you determine that you do not have sound when playing media? What media did you try playing?

[hanafi]

thans for repley

in awizard i have sound dts on hdmi and when i play any think radio movie or music no sound
LMCE 1404
NVIDIA
and no card sound

[Marie.O]

[Marie.O]

That doesn't look out of the ordinary.

Please run the following:

Code: [Select]

pastebinit /etc/asound.conf
pastebinit /etc/pluto/xine.conf

and paste the references here so we can see the config files.  Thanks.

Sorry for the delay, I've been away.  Those files look good.  One more thing to check.  At the command prompt run 'alsamixer' and ensure that all of the output devices are un-muted.  Sometimes the mixer devices are not all un-muted on start-up.

Hi Guys, Been a while......

Firstly Apologies Hanafi, don't mean to hi-jack your thread, but I have a similar problem.  I cant get hdmi audio to work at all. I'm running Dianemo 14.04 though.

asound.conf

Code: [Select]

</etc/pluto/alsa/virtual_cards.conf>

pcm_slave.convert {
        @args [ RATE CARD DEV ]
        @args.RATE {
                type integer
        }
        @args.CARD {
                type string
        }
        @args.DEV {
                type integer
                default 0
        }
        pcm {
                @func concat
                strings [ $CARD "," $DEV ]
        }
        rate $RATE
}

pcm.spdif_playback {
        type plug
        slave {
                @func concat
                strings [ "convert:RATE=48000,CARD=spdif:0"
                        ",DEV="
                        {
                                @func refer
                                name defaults.pcm.iec958.device
                        }
                ]
        }
}

pcm.hdmi_playback {
        type plug
        slave {
                @func concat
                strings [ "convert:RATE=48000,CARD=hdmi:0"
                        ",DEV="
                        {
                                @func refer
                                name defaults.pcm.iec958.device
                        }
                ]
        }
}

pcm.asym_spdif {
        type asym
        playback.pcm "spdif_playback"
        capture.pcm "plughw:0"
}

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

pcm.asym_analog {
        type asym
        playback.pcm "plug:dmix:0"
        capture.pcm "plughw:0"
}
pcm.!default asym_hdmi
I suspect the problem is with the section pcm.asym_hdmi , "plughw:0" shouldn't it be "plughw:0,8" cause I can test audio by

Code: [Select]

aplay -D plughw:0,8 Front_Center.wavThat plays and I can hear "Front Centre" though my TV speakers that's connected via the HDMI cable. However if I play a mp3 file the same way, its distorted...... I must add that I had no Audio with AV-wizard or with Sarah.

I have also attached a pic of alsamixer. I cant seem to adjust audio levels..... or am I missing something?

Thanx in advance guys. 

[phenigma]

I'm not an expert in alsa, nor am I super familiar with the Dianemo stuff, however I think you need to make the following change:

Code: [Select]

"convert:RATE=48000,CARD=hdmi:0"
                        ",DEV="
to

Code: [Select]

"convert:RATE=48000,CARD=hdmi:0,DEV=8"

based on the aplay test you performed.

You may not be able to adjust the audio levels of the HDMI output in alsamixer, this is common for digital outputs that are expected to have a downstream device (amp/TV) with volume control.

I hope that helps, or pushes you in the correct direction!
