HifiBerry Digi
Hi,
Fairly new Xbian/Rpi user and currently extract my digital audio off the hdmi cable to an amp using a little external powered box. I'd like to get rid of the box, extra hdmi cable and power etc replacing it with a HiFiBerry Digi. I'm running the XBMC Gotham build on xbian (afaik), can I make use of this little plug on board, will it be supported at some point etc? BTW great distro I had no end of crashing on Raspbmc before I found xbian |

RE: HifiBerry Digi
I have no idea as I don't need this sort of set up as I use HDMI via the AVR which works well.
The best thing I can suggest is just to try it!! If it fails, come back and we'll try and see what issue there is. Please read before you post How to post a log file If you liked my help, click on "Thanks" to show your appreciation.

RE: HifiBerry Digi
It won't work now, as official xbmc doesn't support yet output audio via alsa.
If you want to try, you should test the popcornmix newclock3 branch : https://github.com/popcornmix/xbmc/tree/newclock3 you need to compil it, it's experimental, and i didn't test myself but it should support alsa output. Please read rules and do a search before you post! . FAQs . How to post log file? . Looking for answers? Please start here |

Ok thanks I'll wait till Gotham is more mainstream and has it by default for now I can use the powered box to split off sound

RE: HifiBerry Digi
hi guys
i have one of these and have had it working in raspbmc/openelec but so far for xbain it wont work as the modules (snd-soc-hifiberry-digi and also snd-soc-wm8804)aren't currently built into the kernel but i would experiment with gotham builds of xbian to try and get it to work if the kernel was to include thwm |
