[02:17:30] taylorr: jya: in case you missed my comment earlier, using 400000 worked for timestretch and the speaker test
[02:18:31] taylorr: HD audio passthrough is still broken... when I play an HD track it gives no sound and the indicator on the receiver occasionally show DTS HD but switched back immediately
[02:18:57] taylorr: jya: do you have the HD audio samples available anywhere?
[02:22:52] jya: taylorr: ping..

[02:25:38] jya: such as .dts , .eac3 etc..
[02:26:52] jya: use mythavtest
[02:28:05] jya: (trying to find the tag to switch to audio only mode ...)
[02:29:44] taylorr: jya: thanks, I'll give the samples a try later
[02:30:17] jya: if the amp switch on and off, the issue is with the video card being not compatible with the amp

[04:19:26] jya: taylorr: the only time I've seen the symptoms you describe is with a GT2xx. They aren't compatible with HD bitstreaming, but sometimes they work, sometimes it doesn't. When they don't work they do like you describe (the amp unable to get a lock)
[04:20:10] jya: now in regards to the 500ms bit, the same configuration is used in vanilla 0.24, so you would have had the same issue there with unpatched 0.24 (or trunk for that matter)
[04:20:23] jya: and this sounds like an ALSA lib bug

[18:12:24] taylorr: Anssi: so I've got a GT 430 and a Pioneer Elite receiver – it seems that HD audio passthrough never gets synced (DTS-HD lights go on and off) – do you think a different video card might work, such as the GT520?
[18:13:13] taylorr: jpabq-: did you ever upgrade your GT430?
[18:14:29] natanojl (natanojl!~jonatan@c83-252-237-63.bredband.comhem.se) has joined #mythtv
[18:20:56] Anssi: taylorr: unlikely though not unpossible; note that GT520 may require a newer kernel
[18:21:02] Anssi: taylorr: do you have http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=commi . . . 8f2ee3c9a00c ?
[18:21:15] Anssi: I don't know what receivers were affected by that
[18:22:11] jpabq_: taylorr: I am running ALSA driver 23 and have the exact problem you are describing with my GT430
[18:23:56] Anssi: I'm about to replace my GT520 with a GT430 probably next week (for better deinterlacer), I hope it doesn't break it :p
[18:24:46] Anssi: ... or was it GTS450, probably
[18:27:33] jpabq_: Anssi: I have the Asus ENGT430 DC SL/DI/1GD3 and it has been awesome — for everything except DTS-HD/MA and DD-HD. No heat problems at all, and it fits in my Antec Fusion (original version).
[18:28:27] high-rez: I've tested HBR Passthrough on my GT430 with an Onkyo TX-NR807 – and have no problems with any of the codecs.
[18:29:01] high-rez: (I understood the 520 was actually a bit of a step down from the 430 in terms of video decode capability)
[18:29:11] jpabq_: I may have to try that patch that Anssi referenced.
[18:34:33] taylorr: Anssi: the GT 430 has great deinterlacing... you'll enjoy it
[18:34:40] high-rez: Interesting. I don't have any such issues but I just patched my system just to see :)
[18:34:53] taylorr: Anssi: no I don't have that DTS-HD update... I'll apply and try again
[18:35:35] Anssi: well, I never had any problems either (TX-SR607)
[18:35:39] taylorr: Anssi: I also have the Asus ENGT430 SL/DI/1GD3 model :) – it's a single slot passively cooled card
[18:38:07] Anssi: probably would be good for me.. but I got so fed up with GT520 so I went straight for Sparkle GTS 450 passive
[18:40:39] high-rez: Anssi: For video decoding, does the 450 provide any benefit over the 430? I love my 430.
[18:40:58] Anssi: (well, GT520 is all-right, I just hate it when I notice that I actually would've needed a better model of something, like in this case)
[18:44:09] Anssi: high-rez: I think there was some difference in the performance, but I don't remember exactly.. I know XBMC VDPAU implementation is more demanding than others (due to the OpenGL stuff AFAIK), so I'm playing it safe (I want 1080i temporal-spatial deinterlacer to work reliably)
[18:44:12] taylorr: Anssi: are you using it for MythTV? or just XBMC?

[20:52:58] taylorr: Anssi: looks like TrueHD is working! not sure why the thd.spdif file didn't play properly but I guess it doesn't matter
[20:55:43] taylorr: Anssi: never mind me – I went back and both of the .spdif files I have played back fine with aplay – I think the first time my HDMI was in DPMS mode which shut the audio off to the receiver :)
[21:11:36] high-rez: taylorr: Are you using the CEC injector too ?
[21:11:47] taylorr: no
[21:11:54] high-rez: I've noticed some oddities with my receiver when it receives CEC commands from myth.
[21:12:54] high-rez: (passhrough sometimes freaks out, have to reboot the receiver)
[21:13:18] taylorr: which receiver do you have?
[21:13:26] high-rez: Onkyo TX-NR807
[21:13:56] high-rez: Having HBR Passthrough + CEC from myth is absolutely amazing :)

[22:49:20] jya: taylorr: if you are using the 0.24 backport, you can't play the .spdif as is as 0.24 doesn't play audio-only file
[22:54:12] jya: taylorr: I still don't get why 500ms buffer would cause the error you are seeing
[23:00:09] andreax (andreax!~andreaz@p4FC131B2.dip.t-dialin.net) has joined #mythtv
[23:03:56] taylorr: jya: I was playing the .spdif with aplay
[23:04:39] taylorr: jya: I don't know why it doesn't work 500ms maybe it has to do with how we handle the error when we reconfigure the audio
[23:05:08] jya: you can play it with mythavtest with the option -O AudioOnlyPlayback=1
[23:05:36] jya: the problem isn't there… the problem is that alsa shouldn't fail there.. ever
[23:06:35] jya: that API is precisely asking alsa lib to allocate a buffer as close to what is requesting… so if there is 500ms asked and 400ms only is available, that's what it returns. it shouldn't error
[23:06:43] taylorr: jya: totally agree, the library definitely has an issue.... when trying 500ms it says it can only handle 300 something but when set to 400ms it never reports any such restriction
[23:07:16] jya: did you read the thread I linked to before? I had noticed such error… need to track the bug in alsa lib
[23:07:33] taylorr: yes, I read it... did they ever address it for you?
[23:07:43] jya: doubt it… I didn't track either
[23:07:54] jya: I was seeing the error when using 250ms
[23:08:00] jya: which is why I changed to 500ms
[23:08:16] jya: because as that's what VLC and mplayer use, I figure it would be a value not giving problem
[23:08:35] taylorr: yes, and it's odd that 500ms works for jpabq and not me since we have the _exact_ same card
[23:08:46] taylorr: maybe because he's using 1.0.23 and I'm using 1.0.24
[23:09:57] jya: I'm using 1.0.24 myself and a GT430 too !
[23:10:24] jya: what I can do for the time being is add an extra command line parameter that let you set the buffer time
[23:10:38] jya: like -O AlsaLIBCrapAround=500
[23:11:20] jya: the problem is I can't just change the 500ms for 400ms… I can bet that it will now work for you and break it for others
[23:11:40] jya: such a pain that code… you put one fix, and it breaks something else.. almost every single time
