OrangePi PC HDMI no sound in mph

[mantouboji]

I use mpv in Armbian 5.10 on a OPiPC, HDMI attach to my audio and TV .

 

I checked the audio devices at first:

mpv --audio-device=help
List of detected audio devices:
  'auto' (Autoselect device)
  'pulse/alsa_output.platform-audiocodec.analog-stereo' (audiocodec Analog Stereo)
  'pulse/alsa_output.platform-sndhdmi.analog-stereo' (sndhdmi Analog Stereo)
  'alsa/default' (Playback/recording through the PulseAudio sound server)
  'alsa/plughw:CARD=audiocodec,DEV=0' (audiocodec, /Hardware device with all software conversions)
  'alsa/plughw:CARD=sndhdmiraw,DEV=0' (sndhdmi, /Hardware device with all software conversions)
  'oss' (Default (oss))
  'jack' (Default (jack))
  'openal/audiocodec Analog Stereo' (audiocodec Analog Stereo)
  'openal/sndhdmi Analog Stereo' (sndhdmi Analog Stereo)

and then play some movie with a  AC3 soundtrack and another movie with dts-hd soundtrack by this:

mpv --fs  --audio-device='alsa/plughw:CARD=sndhdmi,DEV=0' IMAX\ -\ Bears.2001.1080p.BluRay.x264-HDmonSK.mkv

no any sounds.

Use this format for audio:

mpv --ao=alsa:device=[hw:1,0]

I am not sure about hw: configuration. You can check device number with "aplay -l".

I tried every options , no sound at all.

That's strange. Armbian for OrangePC (maybe all H3 also) have long time known problem with pulseaudio. There is some topics in the forum about this. But calling alsa device directly in aplications worked. The above config for mpv work for me in Armbian_5.07_Orangepih3_Debian_jessie_3.4.111, and 5.05 from download section too. I am not tried latest build yet, if you are using some newer version, i don't know. What does:

aplay -l

says? If there are no audio devices, perhaps your account is not part of the "audio" group:

sudo usermod -a -G audio <username>

and check again. If this is not the case i have no idea. Maybe mpv is the problem. You can install mplayer2 just for quick test (because there will be no hw acceleration through vdpau if you don't build it from source):

sudo apt-get update
Sudo apt-get install mplayer2

and check some audio file with the following argument:

mplayer -ao alsa=hw=1.0 <some_audio_file>

[mantouboji]

Now. I use 'h3disp -m 1080p60' to use only with HDMI and TV, no DVI, then speaker-test -c 2 -D hw:1 runs well. 

 

but use gst123 -a alsa=hw:1 and no any sounds yet.

 

mplayer2 is OK as you said.

[RagnerBG]

Well, if built-in mpv in Armbian desktop is the case, you can try to build it from source. I explained how i used to do it in other topic - here. Or try to built mplayer from source which is a little easier and with less possible troubles. I can show you how i do it too, if you want. But mpv is better player and i prefer and recommend it, plus mplayer can't play hevc/h265 contents. I guess there is something to be done with internal ffmpeg, but i don't know how to pass built arguments for it yet.

Same problem here, this works for me:
 

mpv -ao=alsa:device=[hw:1,0] somefile.mp3
