[RDD] caed: unable to allocate stream for card 0

[starrbuck1...@gmail.com]

While I can import and export audio cuts just fine, I am unable to record
anything. I have jackd and RD configured correctly, but when I hit record
from RDLibrary, this appears in the operations log:

caed: unable to allocate stream for card 0

Any ideas?

jackd startup:

-

/bin/jackd -dalsa -dhw:PCH,0 -r48000 -p4096 -n3 -S

-

Audio resources:

-

SUPPORTED AUDIO DRIVERS
  AudioScience HPI [not active]
  JACK Audio Connection Kit [Generic]
  Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA) [1.1.8]

SUPPORTED IMPORT FORMATS
Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC)
OggVorbis
PCM16 Linear
PCM24 Linear

SUPPORTED EXPORT FORMATS
Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC)
MPEG Layer 2
MPEG Layer 3
OggVorbis
PCM16 Linear
PCM24 Linear

AUDIO ADAPTERS
  Card 0: JACK Audio Connection Kit
  Driver: JACK Audio Connection Kit
  Inputs 24
  Outputs 24

  Card 1[-24]: Not present

-

RDAirPlay is outputting to card 0 port 0.  RDLibrary is set to record in
PCM16 from card 0 port 1 and playback to card 0 port 1. RD is running as
"rivendell" in rd.conf with installed user "rd" which is a member of the
audio group. Hostname is "audio" and I am using a static IP address.
Running on CentOS 7.8.2003 using RD version 3.4 and I followed the install
procedure from Paravel Systems.

Mike,

You can use GlassCoder/GlassGUI, BUTT, or Darkice.  BUTT and Darkice you
would need to compile yourself.  It's not difficult.  If you decide to try
Darkice, make sure you get version 1.4.

To run Rivendell as not root (user rd in this example), edit
/usr/lib/systemd/system/rivendell.service and add this to the bottom of the
[Service] section:

User=rd

I'm running mine on a T20 with a Xeon E3-1246 v3 under ESXi and there's
plenty of power to spare.

Re: [RDD] Auto Mount of /var/snd On reboot Does Not Work

This works for me:

Re: [RDD] RDAirplay Crash - Double Free Corruption

[starrbuck1...@gmail.com]

And you really should upgrade them all.  Fred shouldn't have to support
much older versions.  It's just not realistic.
