Re: [Alsa-user] HDMI sound broken with Kernels 3.17

2015-05-23 Thread VDR User
For the record, hdmi audio works fine here with any kernel 3.17 and
higher (I'm currently using 4.0.3). I'm using an Nvidia video card
with Nvidia drivers. Alsa 1.0.28-1.

 when booting 3.17 pavucontrol says HDMI is unplugged



 There is no problem using kernel 3.17.when installing higher kernels
 (I tried 3), the problem appears:

 -after boot, the sound is actually working, but skipping the whole time

Make sure it's unmuted in alsamixer and that your /etc/asound.conf

 The problem is the analog volume.
 alsamixer shows all sliders at 100% but when I watch a video in

 I can't understand what's wrong...

I can't think of anything except a low set volume in alsamixer, or

Re: [Alsa-user] Problem with Nvidia HDMI

2010-07-29 Thread VDR User
2010/7/29 Igor Gueths igue...@lava-net.com:
 In previously posted output (most likely before you rebuilt your ALsa drivers
 from a snapshot), your aplay -l output included reference to an ALC888 chip
 present on your card. However, your latest aplay output references
 hda-generic; this is the first sign of an entirely new problem. Given that
 hda-generic is a generic codec used for testing/debugging purposes, it is 
 almost
 as if the newly built driver is not detecting your card at all. Mv any files 
 out
 of /etc/modprobe.d or any /etc/modules.conf entries referencing Alsa, and
 modprobe -r snd-hda-intel then reload it with no options. Once this is done, 
 can
 you post Dmesg output? Failing that, and assuming that you had working sound
 with your old drivers, check the kernel documentation, specifically
 HD-Audio-Models.txt for the most accurate description of your card under the
 ALC882/883/885/888 section.

There's no need for any of that.  He already said his sound didn't
work before, which makes sense since Debian packages don't contain new
enough drivers for ION.  He _has to_ compile the drivers himself.  He
wants to use ION HDMI audio, not ALC888 so it's pointless to bother
with ALC888 at all (hence why hda-generic shows up for ALC888 -- no
ALC888 drivers compiled since it's not going to be used).  No reason
to move files out of /etc/modprobe.d either.  Maybe you're confused
about what he's trying to do?

Jose, I actually pasted the /etc/asound.conf from the wrong box in my
earlier post (though I think it would work).  Here's the one from my
ION box:

pcm.!default {
type hw
card 0
device 3
}
ctl.!default {
type hw
card 0
}

 Mi apologies, I'm late to this thread, although I think I understand now; the

 Searching around doesn't seem to indicate that anyone has HDMI audio working
 with their ION boards unfortunately. Although, as far as I know, most NVidia
 boards do not include a standalone audio controller for HDMI out; I cannot 
 seem
 to figure out if this is the case with ION or not. If it is, great; odds are
 that the latest NV HDMI codec driver will support the controller. If not, the
 next best option would be to figure out what audio chip is being used (likely 
 in
 this case ALC888), and assume that HDMI audio is provided via an S/PDIF 
 header.
 Jose, have you tested each of the subdevices individually with MPlayer, to see
 if any of them produce any output?

I've had HDMI audio working on my ION  for quite some time now as
mentioned in my first reply.  There's actually a lot of texts on the
net about it, not sure why your searches came up empty.  Btw, you
don't use an SPDIF header with ION as you would for some Nvidia video
cards (like an 8400gs for example).  ION has an own audio controller
and has worked with alsa drivers for a while, but the Debian package
maintainers haven't bothered to update the Debian packages -- which
seems bad since a lot of users have ION now.

 Ok, nice instructions! I will follow it immediately, but I have only two
 questions:
 1.- The Debian pre-compiled kernels (2.6.32-5) have Alsa compiled as
 modules? How can I check it?

I have no clue about that since I don't use the pre-compiled kernels.
But you can check by typing lsmod.  If they're compiled as modules
you'll see something like this:

snd_hda_codec_nvhdmi 9750  1
snd_hda_intel  14764  2
snd_hda_codec  48881  2 snd_hda_codec_nvhdmi,snd_hda_intel

snd_hda_codec_nvhdmi,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_hwdep,snd_pcm,snd_timer
soundcore548  1 snd
snd_page_alloc  4669  2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm

 2.- Have I to uninstall some Debian package? I have several Alsa-related
 packages installed (alsa-base, alsa-utils) Can I keep them or I have to
 uninstall before installing my compiled Alsa version?

dpkg -P package name will uninstall a package but you can leave
alsa-base, alsa-utils, etc.  All you need from the alsa snapshot is
the driver.

The value hw:1,3 comes from here:

You need to install the alsa drivers from source instead of Debian

 Maybe you could pass `--verbose` to `modprobe`? (See `man modprobe`.)

I'm using Debian.  Somebody suggested to just comment out the

I did that and now the messages are gone.  Rebooted the box to make

Wei, which I believe will be in the 2.6.34 kernel.  My audio device is
the onboard audio on my Nvidia GT220 video card.

[Alsa-user] Zotac ION + HDMI audio -- Please help.

2010-01-28 Thread VDR User
Hi.  I've got a Zotac IONITX-C-U system and can't seem to get
audio-over-HDMI working.  The system is running Debian testing from an
sdhc.  For the time being, I just want stereo output (downmixed if
needed) over HDMI since I don't have multi-channel in that room yet.
I've read a zillion messages about this but have yet to come across a
clear howto.  Any help/suggestions to get this working would be
greatly appreciated.  Here are some specs about the system.  I've
attached the alsa-info.sh log in case the paste at the end of this
post is unreadable thanks to wordwrap.

 I give up, I have tried everything that I can find on this topic without any
 success.

 Getting audio out of HDMI was relatively simple but getting anything more
 than stereo is proving challenging. I have upgraded my Alsa
 dirvers/libs/utils to the latest release v1.0.21 so I have the latest NVidia
 HDA drivers which include 8ch support. I modified the code to change the
 Info string to be sure that 8ch was being used instead of the 2ch version
 (can be seen when doing an aplay -l)

 Under Linux I have used speaker-test -c6 -Dhdmi and XBMC, both only produce
 stereo from 5.1 based sources.

 I have tested this box with a install of Windows 7 RC and was able to get
 5.1 audio so I am happy that it can work with my setup.

I know of at least 3 other people besides myself with the exact same
problem.  I hope it gets fixed soon!

[Alsa-user] ANYONE have spdif working with the ADI AD1986A chipset? (Asus M2NPV-VM mainboard)

2009-07-16 Thread VDR User
This mainboard isn't that new but from what I've read spdif worked in
alsa some time in the past.

I get the IEC958/IEC958 D options in alsamixer but can not get any
sound.  Analog works fine.  If anyone has spdif working on this
mainboard then PLEASE post your exact setup  settings!  The only
other option would be to buy new hardware and that's not an option
right now.

Thanks for any/all help!

 Has anyone managed to stream any of the new lossless HD codecs (like

 I know that this isn't possible with SPDIF, but I'm hoping that the
 motherboards with integrated HDMI and sound (like Gigabyte's
 GA-E7AUM-DS2H motherboard) can make this happen.  And if the hardware
 supports it, a separate question is whether it's something that actually
 works in practice with ALSA?

 I'm more or less soliciting general feedback about people's experiences,
 and what hardware works or doesn't work.

I would like info on that as well, preferrably from first-hand user
experience.  I recently found out that alsa doesn't work with the
digital out on my mainboard (Asus M2NPV-VM) and there's nothing I can
really do about it so my only other option is to buy a mainboard that
is _known_ to be working.  Really sucks but that's the case it seems.

[Alsa-user] Problems with snd-hda-intel and Asus M2NPV-VM. Please help!

2009-06-24 Thread VDR User
Greetings.  I've been trying for several days now to get the internal
spdif working and am posting here as a last resort in hopes someone
will know what's wrong.  I'll post system details at the end.

My mainboard has 3 1/8 plugs on the back and an internal spdif_out
connector.  If I plug say headphones into the green connector on the
back, I hear sound in them.  I don't actually want to use analog sound
at all.  Instead I've plugged the internal spdif_out+ground into my
video cards spdif input.  Then I have the dvi output from the video
card going to an hdmi input on my tv.  Note, I have the same setup
(except for different mainboard) in another box and have used it to
test the video card, which worked fine.  The problem is spdif doesn't
seem to be working at all.  I've eliminated everything else down to
either a problem in alsa somewhere, or possibly my xine settings
(though I doubt it since I used the same settings from my working
box).  For alsa I've tried loading the snd_hda_intel driver with
model=3stack, model=3stack position_fix=1, and model=3stack
position_fix=1 enable_msi=1.  None of these worked, I still get
nothing on spdif out.  I've also tried (un)muting tons of combinations
in alsamixer.

Could the problem be my kernel version?  Alsa version?  libasound?
Any ideas at all guys??  Any and all help is GREATLY appreciated!

Best regards,
Derek

System details:
Please note there is no desktop/windows manager.  There is also no
keyboard/mouse plugged in.  This box is a dedicated htpc running VDR
and connected directly to a tv.  I'm using PuTTy SSH from my Windows
desktop for maintenance.
