[ANNOUNCE] Squeezeslave: 1.2 released

[ralphy]

Actually, I never did get anything at all to show up in the log. I did everything I could think of to make the file writeable by squeezeslave (chmod 777, etc.) Not sure what I did wrong there, but I still have a zero-byte, empty file.

This works for me on Lion.

Can you attach the debug log as you have enabled slimaudio_output it may provide additional clues?

Thanks.

Finally managed to get -dslimaudio_output to write to the log.

Updated packages for 'Backfire' and added 'Attitude Adjustment'.

Any package questions/problems feel free to PM me.

Thanks again to Ralphy for his hard work on Squeezeslave and continued guidance.

~MusicManiac

and thank you for building the openwrt packages.

Just uploaded an armhf build of squeezeslave.

Requires Debian Arm Hard Float (armhf) distribution or the new raspbian port for the raspberry pi.

Quick (trivial) question about squeezeslave-1.2-365-osx running on my 2011 Mac-Mini, OS X Lion:

Despite using --name HDMI or --output 2 with squeezeslave, I can't get any sound if there is a stereo-miniplug plugged into the headphone socket. VLC, if it's ouput is set to HDMI, doesn't have this problem and I'll get sound from my HDMI connected monitor's speakers. Any idea why this should be so?

Anyway, I'm finding that booting into Lion is such a PITA that I'm finding excuses not to do so. Lion doesn't play well with my KVM [unlike windows 7 or Fedora on the same hardware] so I end up having to now switch both video AND audio connectors.

I confirmed that vlc used coreaudio directly and there's talk of portaudio support being removed altogether.

From the slimaudio_output log it appears that portaudio is confused as squeezeslave should not open the device at 48KHz which the log clearly shows it has.

paDeviceInfo->deviceid 2
paDeviceInfo->maxOutputChannels 2
paDeviceInfo->defaultSampleRate 48000.000000

I was unable to reproduce this on my mid-2010 mini at home running snow leopard and I don't have access to hdmi equipment at the office where my 2011 mini running lion lives.

Until portaudio supports hot plug devices, I can't see being able to fix this issue anyway.

Hi,

I just installed mountain lion on my mac mini and noticed that squeezeslave was streaming the audio to a different output than before the upgrade.

Editing the plist file fixed the issue.

Just wanted to get this into the thread in case someone else has a similar problem.

[dborod]

I just upgraded to mountain lion, and on my machine, squeezeslave -L now returns

Output devices:
0: (Core Audio) AirPlay (6000/60000)
* 2: (Core Audio) Built-in Output (1/10)
3: (Core Audio) Soundflower (2ch) (0/0)
4: (Core Audio) Soundflower (16ch) (0/0)

There's an airport express device in my kitchen, but when specifying this output device in the plist file there's no sound that emerges from the device.

I currently use Airfoil to stream Soundflower (2ch) to the airport express base station, but would prefer to just stream to it directly.

I'm using version 1.2-311 of your excellent software.

Am I doing something wrong, or is squeezeslave just not able to handle this yety?

Thanks.

I have not tested squeezeslave on 10.8

First, do you get sound if you use the default built in output?

Then grab the latest beta build from googlecode.

Again, try the built in output (-o2), if it works,then try the AirPlay (-o0) one.

I'll have to wait till I'm home later to test it, but in examining a problem with squeezeplay, it seems that mountain lion changes the output numbers if you have an airplay device (apple tv or AEBS).

I suspect that everything still works properly. I guess I should refer to them by name instead of number.

Yes, using -n would be best.

I see you got squeezeplay working to the airplay device, that's great.
