Re: [Audyssey] Portable interactive fiction game playing device/unit

The pi doesn't have a very good sound chip in it. It is only capable of stero at 48KHZ. It can't do surround sound, and all the tests I've done on it seem to indicate even front/rear speakers make no difference, there's only left/right on the pi. I did go hunting for sound cards that will

Re: [Audyssey] Portable interactive fiction game playing device/unit

There are wi-fi dongles for the pi, but I've not used any, so can't speak to how easy they are to configure. Jacob has though, and based on his comments on the raspberry-vi list, it wasn't difficult. Here at home, I have 2 wi-fi routers in the house, and a 48-port hub that everything plugs

Re: [Audyssey] Portable interactive fiction game playing device/unit

how easy is it to set up wi-fi? I am totally blind and would be using orca or speakup. though i prefer orca and a gui but speakup is fine if needed. follow me on twitter @joshknnd1982 On 11/15/2015 4:24 PM, Cara Quinn wrote: Hi Travis, I have been thinking about a Raspberry Pie for a while.

Re: [Audyssey] Portable interactive fiction game playing device/unit

Hi Travis, Actually OpenAL does support positional audio in software with a stereo setup. So if OpenAL can run on the Pie, (which I am assuming it can) we could have 3D audio. Just a thought for now. Cheers! Cara --- iOS design and development - LookTel.com --- View my Online Portfolio at:

Re: [Audyssey] Portable interactive fiction game playing device/unit

A 48 khz sampling rate has nothing to do with audio quality. Lack of surround sound is probably pretty big though. Dennis Towne On Mon, Nov 16, 2015 at 10:48 AM, Cara Quinn wrote: > Hi Travis, > > Actually OpenAL does support positional audio in software with a stereo

Re: [Audyssey] Portable interactive fiction game playing device/unit

Hi Dennis et al; Not sure if your comment was directed to me or not. I was simply responding to the stereo comment. To clarify this, OpenAL does simulate 3D positional audio using two speakers. It certainly can also take advantage of more speakers if more are available to it but it does a

I bought a raspberry pi, case, power adapter, and pre-installed raspbian system (never did get the sd card with the raspbian installed on it though) and the entire bill including shipping was around the 85-90 dollar mark. It's an excellent little unit. It has 4 cpus in it, and runs at 1GHZ,

Which reminds me. If anyone else has a raspberry pi, and wants to see what games are available for it, hop over to http://www.softcon.com/pi/ and check out what I've already ported/written for the pi for gamers. Admittedly, it's not much (yet) but I just started, and I expect to have plenty

Hi Travis, I have been thinking about a Raspberry Pie for a while. You answered many of my questions with this post but one that I have is how easy is it to set up with a visual impairment? Also, you had mentioned that the sound is not great. I assume you can plug a headset into one?
