I have a Philips saa7134 tv tuner i have configured it because of not having eeprom recognition. Now i am facing xawtv a delayed sound "pcm buffer overrun..." is there any way yo fix it. I use KDE, and aplay when playing sound in TVTime but still the same thing happens delayed sound. and is there any option in those players that i can set the channel frequency manually?
View 0 RepliesI have just purchased a PCHDTV 5500 TV card and am trying to get it working with XAWTV. the following is a list of my hardware. EVGA Nvidia Ge Force 9500gt video card Sound Blaster live platinum sound card Q9550 Pentium quad core CPU EP45-UD3R Gigabyte motherboard Sony DVD drive Sony DVD recorder 500 GB Seagate Barracuda sata hard drive
The TV card is hooked up to my Direct TV receiver using svidio and the included cables audio connector is plugged into the line in jack on the sound card. I am using Ubuntu 9.10 and Alasa for sound I down loaded Gnome Alasa mixer and the line in slider is not muted and turned all the way up. if I go into sound preferences to the hardware tab I get two devices the cx23880/1/2/3 pci video and audio decoder(audio port) 1 input analog stereo input and the SB Live! emu10k1 1output/1 input analog stereo duplex.
I am confused shouldn't the TV card be showing an output not a input but there is only the input and off choices in the property field. under the input tab the cx23880/1/2/3 pci video ans audio card has the spot in the radio button and under the output tab the radio button is marked for the SB Live stereo stereo. NOTE: when xawtv is started and the small window pops up there are green vertical bars on the screen with the picture but if I enlarge the window they go away.
Something that has been bugging me. I'm not sure about where it should be so I put it here.
When I loaded up a flash game, the music/sound would be delayed. It's nothing with the performance of my PC because it's still fast.
is there a way to configure shutdown on critically low battery to give me a bit of time before actually shutting down?I've set Gnome to shutdown on low battery. Problem is, I don't get any notification about battery running low, and as soon as battery level reaches the critical threshold, the system starts shutdown without me having any possibility to quickly complete some tasks. Of course, I'd increase battery level thresholds accordingly.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI recently did a fresh install of squeeze. I have the stock 32 kernel along with the 34 from experimental (it is listed as stable by kernel.org). I installed version 195.36.24 of the Nvidia driver using the Nvidia installer, and after starting X the system became unresponsive.
grep '^(E' /var/log/Xorg.0.log
(EE) May 21 11:28:50 NVIDIA(0): Failed to allocate primary buffer: out of memory.
(EE) NVIDIA(0): *** Aborting ***
I find this strange considering that I have used this driver with no problem on a 33 kernel and the same video card:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation G72M [Quadro NVS 110M/GeForce Go 7300] [10de:01d7] (rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device [1043:1212]

I believe it has 256MB of video memory, and I have 1GB of system memory. Is this just a problem with the 34 kernel?
Running Compiz as a standalone WM.Managed to get Slim working, will post how later, but have no sound. If I boot using gdm3 the sound works.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI can play sound files with aplay, esdplay, and vlc, but I don't get any sound from iceweasel and chromium.
I installed a squeeze base system (without gnome and without the standard system utilities), then added (using --no-install-recommends) xserver-xorg-core, xdm, fluxbox, alsa-base, alsa-utils, alsa-oss, iceweasel, chromium-browser. Here I checked for sound and there was none from the browsers. I have since installed vlc, esound-clients, alsaplayer-esd, gstreamer0.10-alsa, and other software that didn't look sound-related and didn't change the symptoms.
Setting ICEWEASEL_DSP to "aoss" or "esddsp" doesn't help. Neither does "chmod -R 777 /dev/{audio,dsp,midi,mixer,snd}". snd-pcm-oss and snd-mixer-oss are loaded. Both my account and root are in group "audio". Running the browsers as root doesn't help.
This is the output of chromium:
In case it makes any difference, all of this happens in a qemu-kvm virtual machine with an emulated es1370 soundcard. Same with sb16 soundcard.
I would prefer not to install everything vaguely related to sound in the repositories in the hope of things fixing themselves. That's just ugly, plus I have only 200MB free space left.
I made a recent update to my Squeeze system and got this weird problem. mplayer, VLC and firefox (.....) all have sound. But when I try to run Amarok I get nothing. I looked into the Multimedia panel on the KDE4 system settings, and its not showing any devices at all. Previously it used to show HDA Intel etc., etc. Now the entries are completely blank. How do I get KDE to recognize my hardware? Shouldnt it pick things up automatically?

I can't seem to get DivX streams to buffer long enough to watch them. I have installed DivX plugins and tried to use VLC, neither which, allow me to pause the video and allow the buffer to load. On Winblows and Mac, There was a different player that handled DivX streams that allowed for large buffering. I checked the /tmp folder while attempting to watch and the stream is not there. Is there another folder I should see the stream in? Is there a bug with the software, or can you only buffer DivX streams as long as they are running? I have a slow DSL connection and have no other way, other than torrents, to watch movies. And I would much rather wait a few minutes to watch the entire movie, than wait a few hours for the torrent to finish downloading.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have made a server using a bananapi. The bananapi is an embedded linux mini PC, using an allwinner A20 SOC. This server boots and runs from an uSD card, and logs data from sensors to an attached 1TB hard drive. This works OK, but the hard drive consumes a lot of power (about 2.5W), this essentially doubles the amount of power needed. I am planning to power this setup from an accu, therefore I would like to keep power consumption as low as possible.
I am planning to let the application log to the uSD card. After a while the uSD card is almost full. At that moment I can wake up the HD, move the data to the HD, delete the data from the uSD card, set the HD to sleep, and wait until the uSD card is full again. Is there some clever way to do this? I can do this with basic shell scripting, but then I get all kind of issues like open files that are copied to the HD while they are still being filled by the logging application. This would mean they end up on the HD incomplete.

View 1 Replies View RelatedBecause I wanted a cleaner, simpler system I installed only the 'basic' packages with the Debian (Lenny 5.0.4) installer and then used "apt-get install KDE" to get the desktop. It worked well enough. KDE runs fine graphically, but I have no sound. System event sounds don't work and no media players can produce any sound. Yet, when installed "all at once" sound worked fine with KDE. What would be different between these two methods of installing KDE? DO I possibly need to install something else? (I tried installing ALSA and running alsaconfig but that didn't fix it.) Or could there be conflicts because of the two-stage install?

When I try skipping around in a video, the sound will randomly stop working.
I was having a problem with the sound not going up to a high volume on my machine, so I tried following some online tutorials and ended up destroying the sound system on my machine. Now, instead of just having quite sound, I have no sound. The machine is a Dell Precision server and the attached files show my sound configuration. Ideally, I would like a way to make the sound louder (>100%), but now I will settle for just having sound.

I'm on Jessie, and use KDE.
Sound keeps coming from laptop's speakers, even when HDMI is connected to an external TV.
I've tried to fix this issue using both Pulse Audio Volume Control and KDE's System Settings -> Multimedia -> Audio and Video Settings. No luck. I've read several topics around, but there are plenty of variables to consider.
recently installed lenny (5.0.4). I can't get any sound whatsoever (except pc speaker). I had to muck around with vlc to get video working, that works fine but there's still no sound. I have a C-media CMI8738 sound card, I've run alsaconf in root which seems to work fine, I've mucked around with alsamixer (v1.0.16) changing volumes and muting things but haven't had any change. Computer is an AMD Athlon xp2500.
View 5 Replies View Relatedi insalled Squeeze recently but i dont have aby sound in my system, in preference>sound> my speaker volum is up too
and alsa-pase also installed ,
what i could install or check for having sound ?
i'm running testing.it turns out i have no sound in deezer. whenever i play a track, it downloads for a few seconds without any sound, before shifting to the next track not having played anything. the controls seem to work, i can pause, stop and so on...sound works fine on my system, including when playing flash videos on videos, daylimotion and a few others.i've just tried another streaming site, last.fm, and it worked.
i don't think it's related, but i'll mention just in case that i have pulseaudio installed, and i run it from a system start (for the reason that i use this desktop as a sound server; pulseaudio is redirects sound towards the laptop in my bedroom when i'm doing xdmcp from one to the other).
I have a Dac Magic usb sound card based on C-Media 108'. I'm running a headless server and I want to configure MPD, but I can't get the sound to work. The card is known to work on linux and I have no problems with it on windwows (it's not defective )

I'm trying to manually install Squeeze/KDE - i.e. not the whole kitchen sink that comes with the DVDs but a cut-down version suited to my needs. Since it's a custom install, and since I'm no expert, I can't be sure (even after reading TFM, and browsing forums) wehether the problem I'm having is to do with KDE/debian, or with my install method. Anyway, the jist of the matter is that after several attempts to install debian/kde, each time using slightly different sets of packages, I either have sound in KDE notifications, but not elsewhere, or else everything starts okay, but after some untraced post-install tweak I lose sound to everthing except KDE notifications.
I'm certain that it's not simply a matter of not setting the sound levels high enough, as Wesnoth (one of the packages not making sounds) cannot be set in the preferences dialog to enable sounds (i.e. cannot place check marks in the sound preferences dialog). Other games are also without sound, and so are flash videos in iceweasel. Also, when I start systemsettings>multimedia all of the tests come up positive with the nice kde sound being made.I've installed all the phonon packages I can think of, with and without alsabase. I've also tried to use a different backend apart from xine, but other than that I'm stumped.
when I use mpd with pulseaudio, I get no sound but clients appear to be playing (ncmpcpp and gmpc). Other players such as vlc or mplayer work just fine.If I go under the mixer, I get "no application is currently playing or recording audio" under the "Applications" tab when playing through mpd. In contrast, when I'm using mplayer or vlc, both show up in that tab. It behaves as though pulse is simply not configured to work with mpd.
