@fission,

No the mesa patch is on the ppa:wsnipex/mesa already, even if the Trusty devs include it or not.

so having trouble playing back videos.
Can navigate xbmc just fine, audio comes out fine, however when I goto play any type of video, it lags out and drops to < 1fps.

xbmc log: http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=176956

EDIT: went to try it again, and xbmc crashed out completely: http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=176966 (same as previous, but goes until crash)

EDIT2: looks like it's only lagging out when I enable passthrough audio to my receiver. If I uncheck that, playback is fine.

delete ~/.asoundrc

[Zxurian]

delete ~/.asoundrc

thanks. That fixed it.

Is that a system specific file that came preloaded with xbmcbuntu?

EDIT: Although now GUI sounds aren't playing...

[wsnipex]

the existence of this asoundrc is a bug in the beta iso that will be fixed in the next build.
for system sounds: make sure the correct audio device is configured in xbmc and its not muted in alsamixer. If you have an AVR, you might need to enable "keep audio device alive"

I like to thank you all for the hard work you've put in.

I don't get any Audio with this version of xbmc. (Worked fine in frodo). (Tried analog 2.0 as well)

quit xbmc and do:

speaker-test -c2 -D plughw:0,3 -r 48000

concerning the vdpauinfo, make sure you run that command with the very same user that is running the Xsession Also a debug log would be great. Choose the @@@ device

[kamchez]

Thanks fritsch,

no sound running the speaker-test command while I am in another tty (ctrl + alt +f2).

No idea. Log is perfectly fine. Make sure the device is not muted (alsamixer -c0) and provide aplay -L and aplay -L and amixer | pastebinit

[kamchez]

aplay -L | pastebinit

amixer | pastebinit

nothing is muted either.

Weird indeed.

[fritsch]

retry with speaker-test -c2 -D plughw:0,7 -r 48000

Also remove your AVR, if there is one and directly connect to the TV.

[kamchez]

it's directly connected to my projector.

Still no sound.
I'll try a ubuntu live CD and see if I get sound that way.. I'll let you know in a few minutes.

[fritsch]

I am not sure the projector can produce sound via the hdmi output - are you sure that works?

I installed and updated XBMCBuntu on my HTPC yesterday.
Is this Lubuntu 14.04 LTS realease version or is this the RC/Beta version ?

Can I configure a NAS, an OwnCloud and an e-mail server with XBMCBuntu and use XBMC at the same time ?

[fritsch]

Xbmcbuntu is a normal Ubuntu which ships xbmc session per default out of the box with some workarounds integrated and some packages preinstalled.

You can use it as every other normal Ubuntu. It is based up on 14.04, do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and you will be on the final 14.04 LTS.
