It looks like squeezelite never releases the audio device, even when idle. If I start squeezelite before xbmc, xbmc doesn't even show the digital output device in the system settings. If I start xbmc first, let it release the audio device, then start squeezelite, xbmc no longer functions as it seems to wait forever to reacquire the device.
Could squeezelite release the device when idle (or when soft powered down)? or is there another way to solve the problem. What I want to do is use my box as a squeeze player when it is idle. I don't necessarily need XSqueeze, as i control it from the LMS web interface or one of the controller apps on a tablet.

Hi I am trying to setup XBMC (OpenElec) and SqueezeLite to use / share the same HDMI audio port, but so far I am unable to do it. When I try and run SqueezeLite in terminal it says: /storage/.xbmc/userdata/squeezelite/squeezelite-x86-64 -o hdmi:CARD=PCH,DEV=1 -m 00:00:00:00:00:fe [15:32:54.302558] test_open:124 playback open error: Device or resource busy [15:32:54.302620] output_init_common:365 unable to open output device Then I saw the above post by Roman trying to setup a similar thing, I have added the <streamsilence>1</streamsilence> to my XBMC advanced settings file. I am now trying to run Squeezelite with the -r switch, but I must have the syntax wrong as it always says: -sh: syntax error: unexpected redirection no matter what I try. These are the rates the HDMI port supports: <32000>,<44100>,<48000>,<88200>,<96000>,<176400>,<192000> How do I use the -r switch correctly? Thank you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cw-kid's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=50737 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
