@ DarkAngel

Thanks so much....

Thank you @ DarkAngel

I will try this asap.

Will you continue your work with Jarvis?

[DarkAngel2401]

I will ... if I have enough time. Job and family come first

[epicfail]

Your build is working perfectly....thank you very much.

[MikeDK]

First of all, thank you for this wonderful patch!

I am using this since XBMC 13, as it enables me to output via spdif to a 7.1 receiver, and simultaneously to a bluetooth headset which is used by my wife (who is hearing impaired).

Unfortunately, the 15.2 version is not working for my setup.

Everything is working if I have both audio outputs enabled ... but as soon as I disable the second output (which is the bluetooth headset), kodi crashes as soon as I open any video file.

Disabling the second output is vital for me, as I do not need the second output all the time ... and I can't keep it enabled, because when the headset is switched off, the corresponding ALSA device is not available in the system.

Does anybody have the same issue?


regards,
Mike

Same Issue here, Zotac Zbox AD04 (with AMD), maybe this can be fixed please!!! I don´t need dual audio all the time, just for my wife(she doesn´t know, how to switch...)

I tried to install the DA today in Win 10, Kodi version 15.2 without success. I downloaded from page one of this thread and relabeled the exe and 4 dll's. I can go into Kodi and perform the setup but after a second it stops working. I tried a couple configurations with no success. My setup was :
Audio1 Direct default, 2 channel, no pass through
Audio 2 WASPi,SPDIF, Pass through

When I try to exit Kodi the PC hangs and I wind up rebooting. I tried this earlier this year as I was new to Kodi and had enough new install challenges so I went back to a simpler setup. I could really get this working as my TV in the kitchen gets the audio through HDMI and I want my home theater to utilize the optical output to my preamp/processor. I am not sure what info you need to help out and your patience with me is appreciated.

I read back through the thread and saw someone's post on permissions. I checked the permissions on kodi executable and found it was not full control! I am now working! This is awesome! Time to donate

Is this addon working with audio DSP addon?

[AchimTuran]

Is this addon working with audio DSP addon?

I guess no, because it is an hack. Several post before you can read that DualAudio duplicates our entire audio engine, which is really bad. AudioDSP doesn't support this behaviour.

[daharn]

On the DA OE 5.0.8 raspberry Pi 2 build by DarkAngel, I only get the "boost center channel" option for the first audio device. However, if I enable this, it effects both devices (HDMI and optical hifiberry in my case). Is this an inevitable limitation or a bug somehow?

Hi

I have installed OpenELEC-Generic.x86_64.DA-6.0.0.tar on my HTPC and now Kodi reloads each time I try to stream video. Has anyone else experienced this or does anyone know how it can be fixed?

I could stream fine with the official OpenELEC-Generic.x86_64-6.0.0, apart from the fact that I didn't have dual audio.

This is taken from the Kodi log just before it reloads:

Try configuring the settings for both audio channels.
