The problem is that you need a special driver, specifically for the
Mytek, ('mytekusb2' (https://github.com/lintweaker/mytekusb2)), and that
neither the Touch or piCorePlayer has it, so I am not surprised that the
DAC is not recognised. I used to supply the driver (and a firmware
package - firmware needs to be uploaded to the DAC when the driver is
loaded), with another distribution for the Wandboard. I'll see today if
I can get it built for the piCorePlayer kernel.

Hi, I use picoreplayer v1.16a (but it displays v1.16 only) and I have trouble to get stereo sound with the *analog audio* output > tc@piCorePlayer:~$ amixer > Simple mixer control 'PCM',0 > Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined > Playback channels: Mono > Limits: Playback -10239 - 400 > Mono: Playback 400 [100%] [4.00dB] [on] > I don't understand why it is not stereo (I confirm that audio is only mono on the right channel) , can you help me ?

that would be very helpful, I followed your link to see if I would be
capable of doing it myself but I have no clue of what to do with all
this code! It's designed for specialists I fear ;o)

On that same subject, is there any downside (other than the time it takes) to switching back and forth between 7.8 and 7.9? The fact that from a user perspective it's just a couple mouse clicks makes it very tempting to play, but I wonder if repeated back and forth will cause trouble. I'm assuming that more often than not I'd want to run 7.9 for the useful new features but would want the ability to go back to 7.8 on the days when 7.9 is broken.

First off fantastic product, I love it, but one question I want to install motion alongside so I can use this player as a security camera. I cannot find how to do this though, and it doesn't show up when I use tce.

Re: [SlimDevices: Unix] Announce: Squeeze on Arch - developer version
I think the risk is that 7.9 and 7.8 diverge in terms of what the database and settings do. The reason for this is that upgrades are intended to be handled ok, but downgrades are not - so it depends what 7.9 is doing differently whether this is ok or not. The difference between 7.8/7.7 and 7.9 is the addition of the library_track table. None of the existing tables has been changed (nor indices fwiw). Up/downgrade should work just find. But - as with all schema changes - whenever you switch between the two, a full wipe & rescan will be triggered. Even though 7.8 could easily handle the 7.9 database, ignoring the new table. But that's how the schema up/downgrade mechanism works. I'm switching several times a week, though not on my main system. But besides the scan needed it should work just fine. -- Michael ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Maybe the fastest/easiest thing to do is just have two cards and use the 7.8 one whenever 7.9 is temporarily uncooperative. :) atrocity's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16009 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101624 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix

Steen has gone through a lot of development with the piCore guys to get piCorePlayer going, but I fear there might be some extra work to do to get camera going. I could be worth searching the Tiny Core forum and asking the question. http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/ regards Greg Erskine's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7403 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97803 ___ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
