MIDI / Alsa

Help and Support

Hello,
I’m trying to run Pianoteq’s new ARM build (https://www.pianoteq.com/) on the Vero 4K, because it has a decent DAC and might also more powerful than a Raspi 3. Unfortunately the Alsa Sequencer Interface is missing from the kernel /dev/snd/seq, is this something I can solve apart from building my own kernel? I’d like the osmc installation untouched.

Thanks
erik

It’s in the Pi build of OSMC:

osmc@osmc:~$ grep CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER /boot/config-4.9.29-10-osmc
CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER=m
CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER_OSS=y

but not in the Vero4K build:

osmc@osmc:~$ grep CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER /boot/config-3.14.29-42-osmc
# CONFIG_SND_SEQUENCER is not set

You could always build your own kernel but perhaps there’s a reason @sam_nazarko has excluded it.

Hi

I’ve now added this for you.

It will be included in the next OSMC update

Cheers

Hi Sam –

thanks so much, I’m looking forward to it (and hoping there aren’t any other issues, but we’ll see).

Happy new year btw
