Hello all
My first post here! And my first Raspberry Pi - 2 Model B.
I’ve just started here. I wanted to configure it as a media centre so I installed OSMC. The Pi is connected to my monitor via HDMI, then the monitor decodes audio and feed it via analogue to a mixer.
No sound. Eventually realised that sound works but only if I unplug and re-plug the HDMI cable while playing. If I then go and select another clip, I have no sound again.
I have searched online and tried all the options in the config.txt: hdmi_drive=2 and =4, hdmi_force=hotplug=1 etc.
Also tried dumping the EDID, amending it (it seems it only allows for 6ch LPCM) and activating it via hdmi_edid_file=1.
Nothing. Sound works only when HDMI cable is unplugged and replugged.
Here is my EDID: Dropbox - Error
Could anybody help me please?
Oh, yes, I could feed the sound directly to the mixer via analogue but my PS3 works this way and I’d like the Pi to do the same.
Thank you!!
Tony
Edit: let me add that this is when running OSMC. Under Raspbian I couldn’t have any sound regardless - but didn’t try too hard. Under OSMC I get sound with default settings - but only when hotplugging during a video.
