Sorry to hear this. I spent one evening listening to music from your Pi4 via the 3.5mm jack socket into a pair of active speakers, so I know it was okay. Output was set to "Headphones" which is the default setting on a fresh install of pCP. I know nothing whatsoever about headphones, I don't own any. You would be better served posting this in one of the pCP forums on this site, where the devs may have more ideas. https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?114828-Announce-piCorePlayer-8-0-0 36851 +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: Headphones.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=36851| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ *Server - LMS 8.3.0 *Pi4B 4GB/Argon one case/pCP 8.1.0 - 75K library, playlists & LMS cache on Sata SSD (ntfs) *Study -* Pi4/Pi screen/pCP 8.1.0 > HiFiBerry DAC HAT > Edifier *Lounge* - Pi2/pCP 8.1.0 > HiFiBerry DIGI+ > Topping E30 > AVI DM5 *Dining Room* - Echo Show 8 *Garage* - Rpi4/pCP/AP mode > Touch > Edifier *Spares* - 1xTouch, 1xSB Radio. 1xSB3, 6xRPi, 1xDAC32, 1xCORE32 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kidstypike's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10436 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=115723 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
