"Failed to Initialise Audio Device" with VOB file - alanh - 2012-04-17 XBMC Eden 11.0 - installed from PPA Ubuntu 11.10 Zotac Zbox mini (i686) Problem: When I play .VOB video files, I get an error message "Failed to Initialise Audio Device, Check Audio Settings". The video itself plays ok but with no audio. All other video file formats play fine, as do audio files & internet streams. VOB files previously played ok with audio on Dharma and when I first upgraded to Eden. Video Settings: Audio Output: HDMI Audio Output Device: DEFAULTS (ALSA) Passthrough Output Device: HDMI (ALSA) I have the xmbc.log but I'm not sure how to attach it. I believe the relevant lines are: 15:36:08 T:6473520 NOTICE: DVDPlayer: Opening: /home/zbox/smb4k/QNAPTS-112/home/Videos/Home videos/1997/VTS_01_1.VOB 15:36:08 T:6473520 WARNING: CDVDMessageQueue(player):ut MSGQ_NOT_INITIALIZED 15:36:08 T:2958027632 NOTICE: Creating InputStream 15:36:08 T:2958027632 NOTICE: Creating Demuxer 15:36:09 T:2958027632 NOTICE: Opening video stream: 0 source: 256 15:36:09 T:2958027632 NOTICE: Creating video codec with codec id: 2 15:36:09 T:2958027632 NOTICE: CDVDVideoCodecFFmpeg::Open() Creating VDPAU(720x480, 2) 15:36:09 T:2958027632 NOTICE: vdp_device = 0xffffffff vdp_st = 0x00000001 15:36:09 T:2958027632 ERROR: (VDPAU) unable to init VDPAU - vdp_st = 0x1.

RE: "Failed to Initialise Audio Device" with VOB file - alanh - 2012-04-25 anyone? RE: "Failed to Initialise Audio Device" with VOB file - VlatkoB - 2012-04-28 I had the same problem with some movies. This is how I solved it: 1. Installed ATI/AMD fglrx driver. 2. Made changes to advancedsettings.xml according to http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=116996 gedit ~/.xbmc/userdata/advancedsettings.xml insert the following: <advancedsettings> <loglevel hide="false">0</loglevel> <gui> <algorithmdirtyregions>1</algorithmdirtyregions> <visualizedirtyregions>false</visualizedirtyregions> <nofliptimeout>0</nofliptimeout> </gui> <cputempcommand>sensors|sed -ne "s/temp1: \+[-+]\([0-9]\+\).*/\1 C/p"</cputempcommand> <gputempcommand>/usr/bin/aticonfig --od-gettemperature | grep Temperature | cut -f 2 -d "-" | cut -f 1 -d "." | sed -e "s, ,," | sed 's/$/ C/'</gputempcommand> </advancedsettings> 3. Deinstalled fglrx driver (on my system XBMC is constantly having CPU on 25-30% with that driver) I do not know why is 1. and 3. necessary, but it worked that way. Now all movies play as expected, no XBMC crashes. |
