XBMC Hang - Audio Issues? - aberto2k - 2014-04-14 Hello, I've been setting up my HTPC over the last month or so using a spare TV. Everything was working fine until after I moved the HTPC to my living room and integrated it into my set up. Setup: Panasonic TC-P55ST60 Plasma Onyoko TX-SR313 AV Reciever Vintage Mirage speakers - 3.1 setup Since the move every time I try to : a. start a video/movie b. adjust my audio settings c. exit XBMC hangs - giving me choice but to force-quit. (see log: http://pastebin.com/PWyb0dev) http://pastebin.com/index My HTPC is running: 1 Win7 64bit (service pack1) 2 i3-4130 (3.4ghz), 8gb RAM - 64bit (ECS H87H3-TI mobo) 3 Intel HD Graphics 4400 4 Intel® Display Audio (6.16.0.3131) 5 Realtek High Definition Audio (6.0.1.6909) 6 XBMC 12.3 with PowerDVD I suspect it has to do with my AV Receiver being recognized by my PC (and the Intel Display Audio driver) - here's why: When I initially hooked it all up it was working fine - audio et al. However I shut down my AV receiver in order to reconnect a speaker, when I turned the AV Receiver back on I had no audio. So I rebooted, then XBMC started to hang on playback, exit and when I tried to change my XBMC audio settings. Out of XBMC, the audio works fine - once I kickstart it by running a youtube or server-stored audio - which is strange, on a clean boot I get no audio from testing the speakers until I run a video. I've followed advice I found on the forum on similar issues, my drivers are up to date (yet on 6 of 8 codecs are supported). I've tried to force my HTPC to use the Realtek drivers but it's no good- I get no audio out from the HDMI. And I'd love to change my XBMC audio setting, but every time I try it hangs. I'm open to suggestions - I have no idea why to try next. Be seeing you, Aberto2k RE: XBMC Hang - Audio Issues? - baijuxavior - 2014-04-14 Try intel audio instead of realtek. Also you should always start the avr before launching xbmc. RE: XBMC Hang - Audio Issues? - aberto2k - 2014-04-14 Nope, turning on the AVR before the HTPC didn't help - and I'm already using the intel audio drivers. I noticed that PowerDVD and VLC were also not outputting audio especially from MKV files so based on a few forum posts I downloaded and installed Sharks007 codec packs. I think it made things worse - now MediaPlayer can't play any video and I'm not further along. I'm gonna leave it for tonight and sleep on it. I may just start over with a clean install on Win7 and get the audio to work before installing XBMC. Ugh - a month of work down the tubes.
