Post subject:	Volume leveling in R6
I'm trying again to get volume leveling working in R6.04. I installed ladspa 1.13-2 and swh-plugins 0.4.15-1 Then according to footeo's post for changes made for R6: Quote: Ladspa volume leveler does not seem to work with mythfrontends internal player anymore and if it does work I don't have any volume controls i.e. mixer issues. -had to move /etc/asound.conf to /home/mythtv/.asoundrc -needed to blacklist snd_pcsp in /etc/rc.conf under modules It looks like snd_pcsp is already blacklisted in /etc/rc.conf Code: # Module Blacklist - modules in this list will never be loaded by udev MOD_BLACKLIST_=($ALSABLACKLIST !snd-pcsp ) # # Modules to load at boot-up (in this order) # - prefix a module with a ! to blacklist it I currently have asound.conf in a .asoundrc subdiectory Code: [root@mythtv mythtv]# ls -l /home/mythtv/.asoundrc total 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 mythtv mythtv 772 2010-05-19 22:00 asound.conf But get no volume at all after configuring Audio Device to ALSA:ladcomp Does anyone else have this working? Any suggestions?

Well I think I am making some progress. It looks like the contents of asound.conf need to be in a file .asoundrc and located in: /home/mythtv/.asoundrc Once that was done I did get sound after changing ALSA:Default to ALSA:ladcomp I got error messages complaining that it couldn't write to file /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/sub0/prealloc Code: ALSA, Error: Error opening /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/sub0 /prealloc: Permission denied. 2011-07-16 20:35:09.963 ALSA, Error: Try to manually increase audio buffer with: echo 128 \| sudo tee /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/sub0/prealloc 2011-07-16 20:35:09.963 ALSA, Error: Unable to sufficiently increase ALSA hardwa re buffer size - underruns are likely Changed permission to 777 for all files in the /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/sub0/ subdir But still getting the following message Code: AO: Opening audio device 'ladcomp' ch 2(2) sr 48000 sf s igned 16 bit reenc 0 2011-07-16 20:54:37.365 ALSA, Error: Setting hardware audio buffer size to 128 2011-07-16 20:54:37.407 ALSA, Error: Unable to sufficiently increase ALSA hardware buffer size - underruns are likely 2011-07-16 20:54:37.468 AudioPlayer: Enabling Audio At least it's different . Not sure what that error really means. I have noticed a difference with the sound level between channels being better but still think commercials and program are still noticeable. Also I can't find how to tell the music player not to use ladcomp. Any thoughts welcomed.
