@lloydsmart - This is because the sound device failed to open, please check your log for the reason why.

Everybody - If your video plays too fast, with no sound, check your log to see if it failed to open the audio device, if so, this is your problem, not AE. Check your settings, make sure speaker-test works, and if your using HDMI ensure that speaker-test with 6 or 8 channel output works. Any more reports of this issue will be deleted as it is not related at all to AE, and feedback will be added back to the GUI soon as to the failure to open the audio device.

Hello. I'm still working on finding out why the sound device failed to open, as it worked ok in Dharma, but I'll solve that problem seperately to this.

I'm posting now to report another crash. Happens with ae anytime I try to play any movie. Here's the crashlog:

Build failure - Cranial - 2011-04-29 12:51

gnif,

Had a couple of goes at building from your source for the ATV2, getting a build failure. Now, I premise this by stating I really have no idea what I'm doing, but this is the failure I get:

Quote:** BUILD FAILED **


The following build commands failed:
CompileC build/XBMC-ATV2.build/Release-iphoneos/XBMC.build/Objects-normal/armv7/DVDAudioCodecPassthroughFFmpeg.o xbmc/cores/dvdplayer/DVDCodecs/Audio/DVDAudioCodecPassthroughFFmpeg.cpp normal armv7 c++ com.apple.compilers.gcc.4_2
(1 failure)

Any more info I can give you? Or just wait until it's further along?

you should be building from gimli's branch, that's where AE work on ios is being done.

Thanks Davilla, I'll give it a go.

@lloydsmart - Thanks for the crash log, I will look at this some time today when I get some free time, at a glance it looks like it should be pretty simple to fix. In the meantime can you please send me the following:

* What soundcard are you using?
* How are your audio settings set?
* What are you trying to play? (eg, audio format, 2.0, ac3, etc....)
* Does this occur every time?

Thanks

  • Sound is via my Nvidia GT430, over HDMI
  • Audio settings are set with all passthrough options on and audio output device is plughw:0,9 (which is what worked on Dharma. I've disabled my onboard audio)
  • I've tried this with TrueHD 5.1, DTS 5.1, DTS-HD MA 5.1, Flac 5.1, DD 2.0, DD 5.1
  • Yes, this occurs every time.

If it helps, my GT430 is connected via HDMI to an Onkyo 705, which in turn is connected to a Panasonic TX-P50VT20.

The crash also happens if I set the output to hdmi, iec958, or default.

Thanks for looking into this!

Here is a preliminary Windows build of AE with EAC3/TrueHD bitstream support. Needless to say this is highly experimental and is mostly untested as I don't currently have a hardware setup in my office that can bitstream these formats.

Requirements:
  • Windows 7 (Vista may work, but there are no guarantees as it doesn't officially support these formats).
  • An ATI/AMD 5xxx or newer card, an Nvidia 4xx series or newer card, an Asus Xonar card or a newer Intel video chipset.
  • A receiver that supports these formats hooked up via HDMI.

HTPC with ATI 5450 (Windows7 64bit) to Pioneer 919 Receiver testet with the compiled Version from ArtVandelae


I can see on Audio- Subtitle settings DTS-HD HRA 5.1 but Output on Receiver is only DTS.
Tested with 2 mkv files and one file has 7.1 but on Audiosetting only 5.1.

TrueHD trailer crash XBMC. On Receiver only PLII Movie.


My English is bad. Sry

Thanks. Tried this quickly on Windows 7 64bit, Intel Core i3, HDMI to Denon AVR2310 receiver. Could not get it to bitstream DTS-MA - receiver still shows DTS track. TrueHD causes XBMC to crash. If you want logs etc let me know.
