No sound on the HDMI output Yavdr 0.6.1

Hello everyone

I upgraded to the latest version of Yavdr and now I have no sound on the HDMI output.

Thanks

Which kind of audio output have you configured in the webfrontend: pulseaudio or alsa?
If you use pulseaudio you can experiment with the plugin pulsecontrol to get it working.

If you choose the right alsa device, it might be easier, but you won't get simultanous output from different applications.

Lars.

Hi Lars

I would like to have audio output with Kodi
In the webdfronted pulseaudio I think is the last option in the menu leaves
I have several HDMI outputs
I am now away from home then I can look and capture screen

thanks

I do not have sound

Thanks

Maybe you must add a "set-default-sink ..." line to the startup.script. Try "svdrpsend plug pulsecontrol list-sinks" to get the right name.

You can try different sinks via the OSD of pulsecontrol (under applications/ tools).

Hi Lars

Sorry but I do not quite understand.

As would be the script?

Sorry
This is correct in script

sudo nano /var/lib/vdr/plugins/pulsecontrol/startup.script

set-card-profile alsa_card.pci-0000_00_1b.0 output:alsa_output.pci-0000_01_00.1.hdmi-stereo-extra1

Thanks

mini73 · October 19, 2016 at 12:57 PM

Ok, the right sink seems to be the default sink, but your script is wrong.

Code

set-card-profile alsa_card.pci-0000_01_00.1 output:hdmi-stereo-extra1

You took the card identifier of the onboard soundcard.

Lars.

If you get sound, then yes.

If not, you can try the several profiles and sinks if you select "applications / tools / pulsecontrol" in vdr's OSD.

Lars.

gabychan · October 20, 2016 at 8:37 AM

Solved

I have sound but every time I start to go through applications / tools / pulsecontrol
They could do this by starting Yavdr
Thank you

mini73 · October 20, 2016 at 11:25 AM

What do you select in the OSD to get sound? Theoretically it could be done via the startup.script.

Lars.

gabychan · October 20, 2016 at 12:15 PM

Hi Lars
From the menu select the last option, which is to run the script, then Ok and have sound,. Problem is to turn off, I have to always go back to Menu

Thanks

mini73 · October 20, 2016 at 12:25 PM

Why do you want to turn off the sound? If you switch from vdr to kodi, the vdr-frontend is stopped so kodi should be the only application which generates sound.

I think I don't understand exactly, what you want to do.

I mean the computer shutdown
When starts again, you have to reactivate the script
I can activate the script when it starts Vdr??

Thanks

mini73 · October 20, 2016 at 3:22 PM

pulsecontrol executes the startup.script, if it's in its configuration directory (/var/lib/vdr/plugins/pulsecontrol). It should be visible in syslog.

Lars.

These are the orders

"gaby@YaVdr:~$ sudo nano /var/lib/vdr/plugins/pulsecontrol/startup.script"
"set-card-profile alsa_card.pci-0000_01_00.1 output:hdmi-stereo-extra3"
"gaby@YaVdr:~$ sudo chmod +x /var/lib/vdr/plugins/pulsecontrol/startup.script"
"gaby@YaVdr:~$ sudo chown -R root:root /var/lib/vdr/plugins/pulsecontrol/startup.script"
"gaby@YaVdr:/var/lib/vdr/plugins/pulsecontrol$ ls
startup.script
gaby@YaVdr:/var/lib/vdr/plugins/pulsecontrol$"
