Failed to Initialize Audio Settings - Shoutcast
#1
Hi - I'm trying to get my Live ATC stream (located at http://d.liveatc.net/cyyz_twr_app.m3u) to work in XBMC, but am getting some errors. This worked before, but I'm not sure if I have tried it since upgrading to Camelot (I'm running the XBMC Live version).

I've followed the wiki and put the above address in a .m3u text file, and as I've said, this worked before....but now when I click on it, XBMC hangs up for a few seconds, then pops a dialog box indicating it is connecting, buffering, then pops the Failed to Initialize Audio Settings toast...but still shows that I am connected to it, timer runs, etc. (but no sound). When I hit STOP, XBMC hangs for another few seconds, then stops and returns to normal.

I'm using an Acer Revo 3610, audio out via optical. All other audio works perfectly.

Here's the debug log:

Appreciate any help.

Thanks.

Fixed my own issue using this technique:

Turns out the shoutcast streams are mono, and there are some issues with Alsa handling that using native setttings.
