It's not clear what you are doing to play a stream.

I'm assuming you have credted a Favorite, something is playing and the
pulseaudio sytero mintor device is valid, and then you truied to play
the Favorite.

Favorite will nto play if
1. The URL is invalid
2. The device is invalid
3. The filetype wavin is not setup correct

The first two look OK - I don't know pulseaudio on Ubuntu 16.10 nor how
it is running (e.g. system daemon ) but you should check permissions of
user which runs LMS and whether that user can run Pulseaudio stuff.

Check WebUI Setting/Advanced filetypes - under wavin what settings are
valid.

If all above are OK - then nee to do logging.

1. In WebUI Setting/Advanced/logging - set player.source to DEWBUG and
click Apply.
2 Note time
3. Try playing the wavin Favorite
4. Assuming it doesn't work - wait 10 secs and note time.
5. From time noted in step 2 until time noted in step 4 copy all entries
in server.log file into a text file. zip the text file and attach to a
post.

Ubuntu 16.10 as Guest in a Vmware-Player VM.

Network is Gigabit Ethernet, but as if LMS plays e.g. Spotify without
any issues (except the bad ui), I don't think there are issues about my
general Hardware setup. 
Sound to local speakers plays fine, even from Host as also from Guest. 
If you say, that's the problem, i hm. maybe have to find another PC for
testing.

I hope, i didn't forget something important!

Thanks for help! 
Stephan

Sorry it is over a year since I wrote the ppst - the custom-convert.conf
is correct.

After you made the test recording  - did you listen to the file
recording.flc and did it record OK ?

edit:

For reference can you please give details of your system which is
running Pulseaudio including version nos.

/confused: has it to be named "waveinput.conf" ? I just took the
existing file "custom-convert.conf", because the content was exactly the
same

Zip and attach your waveinput.conf file to a post so it can be verified.

Don't forget you must restart LMS after each change to a conf file new
conf file is not read

Re: [SlimDevices: SqueezeCenter] WaveInput for Linux

2015-12-29 Thread bpa 

I think part of your problem is that you are playing application which
are using pulseaudio but trying to record them using alsa.

If the application you want to record is playing to an alsa output
device then waveinput should use the alsa device "pulse" and arecord in
the conf file
If the application you want to record is playing to a pulseaudio then
waveinput should use a pulse audio monitor device such as 
"alsa_output.pci-_00_1b.0.analog-stereo.monitor" and use parecord in
the conf file

>From your description I tiunk you are mainly using pulseaudio
appl;ication so first find the relevant monitor device.  When the
application is playing to a speaker try the following command

pactl list short | grep RUNNING

This will show the running devices and then look for the monitor device
applicable to your output device.

If the monitor device is
alsa_output.pci-_00_1b.0.analog-stereo.monitor

try the following command to check output is being recorded
parec -v -d alsa_output.pci-_00_1b.0.analog-stereo.monitor
--file-format=flac recording.flc

This will record the stream in Flac format into the file recording.flc

Then you can update the waveinput conf file to 

Code:


  #
  # wavin 
  #
  wavin pcm * * 
# R
[parec] --channels=2 --format=s16le --rate=44100 --file-format=raw -D 
$FILE$ 
  wavin mp3 * *
# RB:{BITRATE=-B %B}
[parec] --file-format=wav -d $FILE$  | [lame] --silent -q $QUALITY$ -v 
$BITRATE$ - -
  wavin flc * * 
# R
[parec] --file-format=flac -d $FILE$ 
  



and create a Favorite for the pulse audio monitor 
wavin:alsa_output.pci-_00_1b.0.analog-stereo.monitor

I iony tested this with VLC and Flac output format - but it worked OK on
Ubuntu with 4 sec delay.
