XBMC 9.11 (alpha2) + Firefox Flash (via Launcher) HDMI Sound - musti - 2009-11-23 Hi All, I wonder if someone can help, i'm struggling to get Flash sound in Firefox on my Minimal Ubuntu XBMC installation. I only seem to be able to get one of the other!! so frustraiting, so here goes: Acer Aspire Revo (ION) Ubuntu 9.04 Minimal XBMC 9.11 Alpha2 Launcher Plugin Firefox 3.0 (via Launcher) Flash (latest version via apt-get) I've set the environment variables FLASH_FORCH_ALSA=1 FLASH_AUDIODEBUG=1 Now, a /etc/asound.conf of: Code: pcm.!default { And a /etc/asound.conf of: Code: defaults.pcm.device 3 Gives me lovely HDMI sound in Firefox Flash!! But not XBMC :-(. I get 'Failed to initialise audio device'. Is it even possible to have both? Thanks in advance for any help! J - musti - 2009-11-24 Anyone got an Acer Revo who has managed to achieve the same? I'm pulling my hair out here! - Zarquon - 2009-12-08 My setup is also a Acer Revo 3610 and I am outputing to my Sony TV via my Sony Reciever. I was having the same issue and found this solution here and here. I changed my .asoundrc file to: Code: pcm.dmixer { Now sound works over HDMI in both XBMC and in Firefox/Flash as well as xmame. Additional info to help others here: Code: xbmc@xbmc:~$ cat /proc/asound/version - musti - 2009-12-16 Mate you're a legend, works perfectly!!! Now, if only Adobe would give us VDPAU acelleration under linux! - musti - 2009-12-18 By the way, when you launch firefox via the 'Launcher' plugin does it go fullscreen? Mine doesnt, it appears top left?? And i can't make it any bigger. If i click the fullscreen button on a flash video it fills the screen though? Any ideaS? - agroman - 2009-12-24 nevermind. thanks for this!! - linkin - 2010-01-12 Hi guys, if the settings from Zarquon doesn't work for you (it won't work for me either), just add to your ~/.asoundrc or /etc/asound.conf like musti already said: Code: defaults.pcm.device 3 Sound in Flash will work correctly, to get sound in XBMC just change the audiosettings from hdmi to default in XBMC. - linkin - tahvaja - 2010-01-13 Hi, I have a fresh install of XBMC 9.11 running on Ubuntu Karmic minimal (installed by this tutorial: http://peter.wurmsdobler.org/bricols/xbmc.html.) Now I would like to have a possibility to use a web browser launched in XBMC. I couldn´t find a simple HowTo for that purpose. I´m a more-or-less newbie with Linux so what I really need is a list of commands/very basic and simple tutorial how to make this happen. I would really appreciate your help. -t |
