alsa / mpv is dying in a spectacular way in the latest Armbian on the OPI0
<Xogium>
oh ?
<peterm6881>
[ao/alsa] Device underrun detected.
<peterm6881>
gonna try another player and another stream
<peterm6881>
ill try stream first
<peterm6881>
by the way it plays for a few minutes, starts stuttering,then gives up
<Xogium>
sounds like network issues
<Xogium>
packet loss maybe
<peterm6881>
arslan says he'll come back to me in an hour
<peterm6881>
i said ok how long is your hour?
<peterm6881>
as big as my shoes
<Xogium>
in the meantime I'll keep researching if there'd be a way we could use eMMC
<peterm6881>
also in the meantime, is there a quick and dirty way you could create a fully micro sd image?
<peterm6881>
with the whole map
<Xogium>
hmm I'll have to rework our stuff
<Xogium>
but shouldn't be too hard
<peterm6881>
so far ive only sent sc6502 a board, I should build him a proper box
<peterm6881>
looks like that alsa issue is the stream, bbc is playing ok so far
<peterm6881>
thats annoying, Mellow Mix is my favourite station
<Xogium>
nop more likely you have packet loss between you and that mellow stream
<Xogium>
you network stutters a bit, a bit and then its too much to handle and bam
<Xogium>
that's exactly what used to happen with my server and here when there was like 15% packet loss
<peterm6881>
what did you do about it? new network card right?
<Xogium>
nop I contacted the provider for my server and they fixed the issue
<peterm6881>
yeah its definitely a buffering issue, like you said, packet loss
<peterm6881>
im checking if mplayer handles it better, thats what i used to use
<peterm6881>
guess what Arslan's day job is?
<peterm6881>
ill help you, hes not a shoe salesman
<Xogium>
huh no idea
<peterm6881>
he services business 3D printers
<Xogium>
ahah
<peterm6881>
you couldnt make it up
<peterm6881>
mplayer is more robust with audio streaming
<peterm6881>
doesnt have that issue
<Xogium>
or by the time you tried it the packet loss went away :p
<peterm6881>
no it was consistent, it did it every single time, after a few minutes, since i went to mpv. Mplayer would occasionally trip out, but typically ran for days. Im gonna move the antenna outside the box, that would help
<peterm6881>
but yeah i think ill revert to mplayer, its leaner. MPV is fine on the NEC, i have a playlist
<peterm6881>
sounds great on the modified Jedel speakers
<peterm6881>
i found the zero ohm links and the no connection pads for R39, R40, R42 and R43
<peterm6881>
we can swap R40 to R39, and R42 to R43 if we want to use PA2 / PA3 and switch to UART0
<Xogium>
nice
<peterm6881>
i have news
<peterm6881>
i forwarded you the thread
<peterm6881>
Sony in Wales wanna play ball
<peterm6881>
Last time I spoke to them somebody called Nabila Williams said they weren't taking on new business at that time, presumably because they were flat out manufacturing Raspberry Pi's
<peterm6881>
woohoo, i reversed left and right on the OPi0 expansion board, its physically the wrong way round
<peterm6881>
left and right audio
<peterm6881>

If you're using ALSA, Add this to your ~/.asoundrc file:
<peterm6881>
pcm.swapped {
<peterm6881>
type route
<peterm6881>
slave.pcm "cards.pcm.default"
<peterm6881>
ttable.0.1 1
<peterm6881>
ttable.1.0 1
<peterm6881>
}
<peterm6881>
pcm.default pcm.swapped
<Xogium>
didn't know it was swapped lol
<peterm6881>
thats where speaker-test -c2 -t wav is invaluable
<peterm6881>
do you use the OPio box with the expansion board?
<peterm6881>
OPi0
<peterm6881>
if you plug headphones in, the nice lady will tell you front left and front right, but on this board they got them the wrong way round
<peterm6881>
note that fix is user specific
<peterm6881>
also, you need to reboot for the setting to be applied
<peterm6881>
oh, annoyingly it didnt work on the root account. Ah well
<peterm6881>
my bad, i missed out the last line
<Xogium>
you could have done it in /etc/asound.conf and it would be global
<Xogium>
iirc
<Xogium>
but don't bet on it, I don't use alsa
<peterm6881>
ohh
<peterm6881>
its a new file, would that be right?
<Xogium>
hmm
