#837: A52 (ac3/Dolby Digital) encoding for SPDIF / Pulseaudio ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ Reporter: mcarans | Owner: lennart Type: defect | Status: new Milestone: | Component: module-alsa-* Keywords: | ---------------------+------------------------------------------------------ I am using Lucid 10.04 LTS.
I have managed to get A52 encoding through SPDIF to work with Alsa following broadly this guide: http://www.johannes- bauer.com/linux/dolby/?menuid=3 I have struggled to get this to work with Pulseaudio. I have tried a custom default.pa without the hardware autodetection and adding lines like: load-module module-alsa-source device=WebCamMic source_name=WebCamMic load-module module-alsa-sink device=HDMI sink_name=HDMI load-module module-alsa-sink device=Filter_RateConvert sink_name=SPDIF But the Pulseaudio server complains because of the Filter_RateConvert line with: E: alsa-sink.c: Assertion 'err != -11' failed at modules/alsa/alsa- sink.c:395, function try_recover(). Aborting. Is this a bug? Please can someone tell me how to get Dolby Digital encoding through SPDIF working with Pulseaudio on Lucid. -- Ticket URL: <http://pulseaudio.org/ticket/837> PulseAudio <http://pulseaudio.org/> The PulseAudio Sound Server _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-tickets mailing list pulseaudio-tickets@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-tickets
