Hi,

I wonder if it's possible to get audio output simultanously on HDMI, SPDIF and jack output device ?

Regards

There is a patch :

But this patch need to be merged in MatrixTV and/or OpenELEC for Matrix and XBMC need to be recompiled.

Thanks mikebzh44, but i'm not sure i can be able to do that. If you got any howto i will try, but i don't have enough knowledge to proceed on that.

Otherwise searching to the internet, i've found this : http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=145430, which could help me. The problem is that (connected thru ssh in root in OpenElec) i can't modify any file. Always got a "read-only file system" message and can't modify or create any file.

Any idea on how to solve that ?

Are you sure to edit right files because it's mentionned :
/storage/.config/asound.conf
/storage/.xbmc/userdata/advancedsettings.xml

And those files are in your user space so you can edit them.

I don't think asound.conf trick works anymore because XBMC uses audio output directly.

@mikebzh44
You're right, i wasn't try to edit the correct files (tried to edit in /etc directory). So I tried in /storage/.config and /storage/.xbmc and then can create/modify these files, but that haven't resolved the problem. But it seems to work with others...

@vpeter
Means you may be right: asound.conf isn't use anymore. The only away should be to recompil XBMC with the patch you've talked about...
