Re: [slim] How to ear vlc or chrome(NETFLIX) or over multimedia reader by LMS (KDE 14.04 lts)
I have just read through this thread. There is no doubt that it is technically possible to take the audio from any source and convert it by whatever means (wavinput is only one) to a stream that LMS can read and play. However if I read things correctly you want to see video in one place and send audio by stream to LMS. It won't be usable. There will just be too much lag on the audio to make it acceptable as a viewing experience.

OK - I have found the 2015 post which detailed these steps. You need to
check whether you have done them correctly.
1. Do you have entries in WebUI Setting/Advanced/FileTypes for
WaveInput - and are they correct (i.e. parec/lame, parec , parec) ?
2. What is the URL in the Favorite you created to play the stream ?
3. Get a log with player.source set to INFO when trying to play the
Wavin: Favorite ? - copy log to a file, zip and paste to a post. Make
sure log start before you try the test and finished 20 secs after
pressing play.

Unless you get a recording of what you want - do not think you are making progress. I'm still going back through old threads to find relevant instructions.

Re: [slim] How to ear vlc or chrome(NETFLIX) or over multimedia reader by LMS (KDE 14.04 lts)
Pulseaudio requires a totally different strategy than Alsa and it usually much more convoluted. It has been documented/discussed already at length in the WaveInput plugin thread. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108585 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

On a command line the foillowing command will play the Default alsa device and copy audiostream in 44.1kHz/16bit/2chan WAV format into a file call test.wav Code: aplay -D default -f cd -t wav >test.wav Play something on the audio outout you want recorded. Issue the above aplay command. Let it record for say 30 secs - use CTRL/C to stop and then play back test.wav and check if it was the audio you wanted recorded. If you want to know what devices are available to aplay - use the "-l" lower case letter L. The device can replace "default" in the -D option above. Code: aplay -l To test under the LMS userid - it would be best to login under than id but you could use "su" but it is not 100%. The actual userid will depened on your installation but use "ps" to see what userid the LMS server process is using. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108585 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

All wavinput does is copy an audio source and feed it as a 44.1Khz PCM stream into LMS. If your system uses pulseaudio then obtaining the correct "device" to act a source can be very tricky. If your system uses ALSA No pulseaudio) then it is usually straighforward by using aplay. Before using wavinput - make sure you have a command that when executed at a shell prompt under your LMS userid can copy the desired audio stream into a WAV file. No point using Wavinput until you have such a command. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108585 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Hi, VLC can manage this very well too. But today WaveInput is not working here (so I am not yet in sync issue). Do you want to say that the only way is to use waveinput to feed with my local players my squeezelite boxes ?

Waveinput will not normally work with video as audio and video will be out of sync due to different network paths. The only way to make it work is to use somehting like mplayer and to manually tell mplayer to alter the time gap between audio and video stream and even then sync may not be good. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108585 ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
