  • Analog audio output not working (quite often)

    Good idea :)

    Can you read this ?

    This is a log when the audio does not initialize.

  • Analog audio output not working (quite often)

    Hi !

    I use Librelec 8.2.5 on a Intel NUC6I3SYH box.

    I have also a NAD amplifier which is bound to my box through an analog cable.

    So my audio output setting is set to ALSA: HDA Intel PCH, ALC283 Analog.
    Note that there is another entry in the menu, ALSA: Default (HDA Intel PCH AL283 Analog), it seems that it is the same one (they both output sound on my NAD).

    Here's my problem : quite often, when I start LibreELEC, I have no sound.

    It's like the audio output was ignored (but it is displayed in the dropdown).

    If I switch it to ALSA: HDA Intel PCH, SAM SAMSUNG on HDMI #0 (my TV device); I got sound on my TV.

    But if I switch it back to the analog... Sometimes it brings the sound back, other times (most often) it keeps silent.

    The best thing I've found is: to put the box in sleep mode then wake it up.

    When it wakes up, there is a little cracking sound out of my loudspeakers, and then most of the times, the sound is back on KODI + NAD.

    It also sometimes work when I restart my box, even if it seems that it works better (and is faster) with the sleep/wake up thing.

    I never had this problem before; and I have the feeling that I almost always have it now (especially since I updated to LibreELEC 8.2.4 ?).

    Well, does anyone knows what it could be ?

    Thanks.

  • Symlinks make addon crashes ?

    Hi guys,

    I made an addon that includes 'py-sonic' as a git submodule.
    The advantage of this is that I can easily update the submodule from the original Github repo.

    The library I want to include in my addon is in a subdirectory of that submodule, py-sonic/libsonic
    I think python won't let me load a path with a dash in it, and anyway, the py-sonic directory does not have an __init__.py file in it, so unless I make changes in the py-sonic files, I'm not able to load the library.
    And I don't want to make changes since I loose al the benefits of the submodule thing :)

    Anyway, there is a simple solution for that : symlinks.
    I made a symlink libsonic in /lib/ that links to py-sonic/libsonic.

    So I can load the library in python with

    Code
    import libsonic

    and keep the original submodule structure.

    It work great on KODI under Mac OS X; but when I try it in LibreELEC, it crashes, saying that libsonic cannot be found.
    If I replace the libsonic symlink with the libsonic directory, it works fine.

    Any ideas about that bug ?

    plugin.audio.subsonic with symlink (crashes)
    plugin.audio.subsonic without symlink (works)

    Thanks !
