Now the last piece of the puzzle is getting the 5.1 sound to work - its selected at both ends; the PC thinks its streaming 5.1 sound because the windows sound test plays all 6 channels, but my AVR only see stereo.

Has anybody come across similar? Are there specific Pulse audio settings that I need to setup to use 5.1 channels on HDMI?

Apparently by default PulseAudio won't use surround channels. So I added a custom PulseAudio config

vi /storage/.config/pulse-daemon.conf.d/custom.conf

and add:

default-sample-channels=6

OK, next question, I can't get my PS4 controller to work at all on bluetooth. I can get it paired, but no button presses work. This GitHub - chrippa/ds4drv: A Sony DualShock 4 userspace driver for Linux seems to be a recommendation, and looking at LibreELEC-RR/packages/5schatten/service/ds4drv/system.d at master-rr · 5schatten/LibreELEC-RR · GitHub it seems to be there, but I am unable to get the service to start.

Does anyone else use ds4drv with their PS4 controllers?

Hi,

For the life of me I haven't been able to get moonlight-qt to play audio on my client. It was working with moonlight-embedded.

I'm running the generic build RR-20191013-b5875c0 on an Intel NUC (MSI Cubi core i5 5005U) connected via HDMI to an AVR.

Audio works fine on Kodi and media playback, and it works fine through retroplayer and games, but nothing when opening moonlight.

I have tested moonlight on my android phone and I can stream games with audio to the phone without a problem.

Apparently my logs exceed the 1MB attachment limit - please see here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1i1ii9qoia8vxibsz1icqdevl48ldrsv6/view?usp=drivesdk

Please let me know what more info I can provide.

So, after much sleuthing...

Don't follow this advice from the 20190522 release notes:

"added Moonlight-Qt v1.0.0 to generic builds -> just run it & should be self explanatory" (or at least don't take it literally like I did and just try to run the "moonlight-qt" binary).

I figured that Kodi was blocking the audio, and that I had to stop Kodi then run moonlight (also that I needed to use Pulse). So I went looking for how it had been done for Spotify and the emulators, and I found this:

LibreELEC-RR/packages/5schatten/emulation/streaming/moonlight-qt/scripts at master-rr · 5schatten/LibreELEC-RR · GitHub

Which has everything setup already! Good to know.

TL;DR: run moonlight-qt by using the script /usr/bin/moonlight-qt.py
