XBMC 9.11 (beta1) hdmi and optical audio output
#1
I upgraded XBMC 9.04 to XBMC 9.11 beta and noticed that my double audio output is gone. Under XBMC 9.04 the audio settings were configured like below:

And I use the following asroundrc script:

Code:
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave {
pcm “both”
}
}

pcm.both {
type route
slave {
pcm multi
channels 6
}
ttable.0.0 1.0
ttable.1.1 1.0
ttable.0.2 1.0
ttable.1.3 1.0
ttable.0.4 1.0
ttable.1.5 1.0
}

pcm.multi {
type multi
slaves.a {
pcm “tv”
channels 2
}
slaves.b {
pcm “optical”
channels 2
}
slaves.c {
pcm “amp”
channels 2
}
bindings.0.slave a
bindings.0.channel 0
bindings.1.slave a
bindings.1.channel 1
bindings.2.slave b
bindings.2.channel 0
bindings.3.slave b
bindings.3.channel 1
bindings.4.slave c
bindings.4.channel 0
bindings.5.slave c
bindings.5.channel 1
}

pcm.tv {
type hw
card 0
device 3
channels 2
}

pcm.optical {
type hw
card 0
device 1
channels 2
}

pcm.amp {
type hw
card 0
device 0
channels 2
}

How do I need to configure 9.11 to get this working? I noticed that in the guisettings "alsa:" is added for passthru and the default output is just plug:both. How does this work with xbmc 9.11?

i'm having a similar problem.
Can't get both hdmi and optical to work simultaniously anymore after updating to beta1.
Switching works fine though..

I also would like to get this working, I have a Logitech speaker system connected to optical connection. I want to also output to the TV via hdmi.

Huh
