 |
|
Hi,
I have mythtv up and running for the root user - but it may seem somewhat risky...so I've created a user called my
This is whats happening:
The use can start X and he can start mythtv and browse around but if he tries to watch TV (or listen to music) he'll get an error saying:
| Code: | ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:868:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave
(snd_pcm_open(default):Permission denied.
|
I know that it is some device or something that I haven't given 'my' the correct rights to - but which one.
I guess that my problem is that I've never really understod the alsa architechture - How does alsa relate to /dev/
My .asoundrc looks like this:
| Code: | pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm "swmixer"
}
pcm.swmixer {
type dmix
ipc_key 1234
slave {
pcm "hw:0,0"
period_time 0
period_size 1024
buffer_size 4096
rate 44100
}
}
pcm.dsp {
type plug
slave.pcm "swmixer"
}
ctl.mixer {
type hw
card 0
}
