pulseaudio - beefke - 2008-08-24 I have tried xbmc for a few days and this is exactly what I was looking for, thanks! I don't know if pulseaudio is supported, but these are the problems when I enable pulseaudio: -100% cpu load in the menu's -no video (blank screen, tried different formats), have to press ctrl + alt + f1, kill xbmc.bin and press ctrl + alt + f7 -when I exit, I also have a blank screen (same procedure as above to get rid of it) Music is working fine (except the 100% cpu load). I can also see two alsa streams in the volume control of pulseaudio (I suppose 1 for the menu and 1 for the music) Has anyone else encountered the same problems? I like pulseaudio very much, it gives me the opportunity to play music in different rooms. My setup: amd barton 2500+ ati 9800se Ubuntu 8.04 xbmc alpha3 (tried also svn 15100) - beefke - 2008-08-29 I'm a bit further now: when I install the package libsdl1.2debian-pulseaudio, the cpu was back normal, video worked again and I could normally shutdown However no audio was heard during video playback. I got the error "Unable to set hw params for playback" This bug is fixed with alsa-lib 1.0.16 and alsa-plugins 1.0.16 which are both in intrepid. Now I have the error: 14:45:00 T:2724150160 M: 26669056 ERROR: CALSADirectSound - snd_pcm_hw_params, alsa error: Invalid argument It seems like the alsa plugin for pulseaudio doesn't support (yet) all the native alsa functions. - althekiller - 2008-08-29 No, pulseaudio is not supported. - proctor - 2008-08-30 ASUS M2N-E SLI Ubuntu 8.041 I had to remove pulseaudio to get sound to play in music or movies - beefke - 2008-08-30 althekiller Wrote:No, pulseaudio is not supported. OK, that's clear. No plans do to so in the future? I admit that for a standalone media center, pulseaudio adds little or no value (it adds even delay), but for a distributed sound system, pulseaudio is the way to go. - Gamester17 - 2008-08-30 beefke Wrote:OK, that's clear.
