ok, i'm trying to use an Rpi4 to host an headless session of kodi, useful for timed updates of the library, and correctly applied the 'headless' patches to matrix (once adapted, of course), but i end with the system doing what i want it to do but with the log flooded by 

Code:

WARNING <general>: CActiveAE::StateMachine - signal: 23 from port: timer not handled for state: 1

which is undestandable, as i have no audio output at all on that computer.
So, here is the question: is it possible to completely disable the audio engine (of course, only if running headless) somewhere in the code?

thanks for the help

ok, found, at least the way not to log that error

thanks

An chance you could share how?

I'm running the linuxserver/kodi-headless Docker container and it's log file gets flooded with those things so it would be nice to silence them:

Code:

I don't suppose you recall how you did this do you, @succo? Not a major deal at all, I've just been tidying things up and this log spam/entry has been a minor annoyance to me for a number of years!

i really don't remember the exact location, but it was a crude edit, commenting the line where that log is generated
looking at the code, it must be in xbmc/xbmc/cores/AudioEngine/Engines/ActiveAE/ActiveAE.cpp line 445
 

Code:

std::string portName = port == NULL ? "timer" : port->portName;
# CLog::Log(LOGWARNING, "CActiveAE::{} - signal: {} from port: {} not handled for state: {}",
__FUNCTION__, signal, portName, m_state);
