To test and get functionality working just get an "arecord" working at a shell prompt with your input device and saving to a file in CD format. Using "arecord" enables you to see any ALSA errors which may be preventing audio capture. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112447 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Synchronise line in input?
What is a reasonable price for you? My solution was a 2nd hand line-in to USB ADC which then plugging into an already in place Raspberry Pi that was running LMS ... and the WaveIn plugin that I mentioned in the first reply.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Synchronise line in input?
i was hoping to play the output of a record player (inbuilt phono preamp, analog line output) using LMS but the record player is too far away: no wires no bluetooth stream plenty of network (wired and wireless) i was happy with a small commerical streamer box that has line in and an mp3 url stream to play, but never found one at a reasonable price delay getting started doesnt matter as long as it keeps on streaming through the pauses whilst vinyl is changed dunk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=47124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112447 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

pcp-streamer creates an icy stream, either in flac or mp3. Supports full input rate of you line in dac.Your LMS server can be anywhere.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Synchronise line in input?
Player sync together playing a source. It is not the source thats synced. Waveinput can "play" a line in but there will be a delay and Line-in must be on the same system as LMS PCP has an option to take line-in on a player (i.e. not on LMS system) and convert it into a HTTP stream which is then played - again there is latency. With Waveinput line-in is usually converted into CD quality (i.e. 44.1kHz 2 channel s16p) bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112447 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Yes. There may well be more than one but I use WaveInput. If you are using pCP then you have other options built into it.
