how to get sound from hdmi

[aus9]

eek I had an error in my wiki.

I have not looked at any other stuff but the .X.d file is wrong
try

Code: [Select]

rm -rf .X.d/dbus
echo "dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session" > .X.d/dbus
cat .X.d/dbus
(hopefully you will get)
cat .X.d/dbus
dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session
I have no idea how you got a startx in there, it was not in the wiki.

Please see attached screenshot from pavucontrol.
BTW , startx was written in pulseaudio.tcz.info

Comments:       PulseAudio is a sound system for POSIX OSes, meaning that it is a proxy
                for sound applications. It allows you to do advanced operations on your
                sound data as it passes between your application and your hardware.
                Things like transferring the audio to a different machine, changing
                the sample format or channel count and mixing several sounds into one
                are easily achieved using a sound server
                ----------
                howto:
                alsa needs to be working for whatever sound device you have
                exit to console
                create ~/.X.d/dbus containing:
                "dbus-launch --sh-syntax --exit-with-session"
                [glow=red,2,300]startx[/glow]
                $ pulseaudio -vv [to test]
                create ~/.X.d/pulseaudio containing:
                "start-pulseaudio-x11" [once tested]
                ----------
                if a bluetooth sound devices is paired and configured, pulseaudio
                should find it automatically if the daemon is running
                ----------
                use pavucontrol to switch source & control volume
                ----------
                qpaeq can be used as an equaliser with the pyqt and dbus-python-2.7 extensions
                ----------
                to add echo cancellation, load webrtc-audio-processing and..
                $ pactl load-module module-echo-cancel aec_method=webrtc
                ----------
                This extension contains:
                pulseaudio-2.1 - LGPLv2.1 - http://freedesktop.org/software/pulseaudio/releases/pulseaudio-2.1.tar.xz
                ----------
Change-log:     2010/05/01
                added 78-sound-card.rules
                2010/05/17
                updated git 2010/05/01 -> 0.9.22 added avahi & jack interfaces
                2010/12/10
                updated 0.9.22 -> 1.0
                2011/09/30
                updated 1.0 -> 1.1

You said something about wrong index ?

If somebody got hdmi audio working with xfx radeon 5450 graphic card or similiar .
Please provide your valuable suggestion .
Thank you.

[aus9]

firstly startx from pulseaudio info file

ahhh, I see. What our maintainer is saying is you are outside X or graphical system and you startx
somehow you added startx to the X.d file

pls confirm your contents are now as per last command for cat .X.d/dbus

2) I like images, I gather you have no sound?
what happens when you run from a terminal

Code: [Select]

pulseaudio -v
3) index, I did but I think we can get pulseaudio (PA) to play ball.

4) I assume you know that when are playing a sound file those long bars are a sound volume bar
eg playback tab...png ending in 45 is empty while my wiki image shows a snapshot of a moving bar


5) what kind of sound file were you playing?
I don't have hdmi, but if you look at your output tab, you have not clicked for mpeg

[aus9]

ahh forgot to mention, for troubleshooting, can you now delete your .asoundrc file pls.
and reboot please.We want everything to be controlled by the configs for PA

please see attached screenshot , log of tiny core & ubuntu.

Tinycore 4.x is using kernel version 3.0.21. According to the footnote on the link below, you need at least version 3.3. (This is for xf86-video-ati, not catalyst. I never had any luck with the catalyst driver either, though)
http://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature/

Your chip turns out to be in the same line as me, so if you manage to find something I couldn't before TC5 is officially released, I'd very much be interested in how you did it!

[manit123]

I am ready to try any unstable , beta , testing release of tiny core that has an advanced kernel.

[gerald_clark]

Tinycore 6.0 Alpha has kernel  3.8.10.
It is still early alpha, so you may have to wait a bit for drivers and support extensions.
You can give it a try.

[manit123]

Tried them , even with radeon.audio=1 kernel parameter.
No success.
I think , alsa is last hope.
