Using Volumio x86 latest version on an old mac mini.
Everything working beautiful.
As I connected this to an big TV screen with a remote keyboard/mouse, would like to increase mouse cursor size.
Being trying with
$ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface cursor-size [sizeInPixels]
command, which does not return any errors, but cursor keeps same size.
Not sure if you have the same issue that we should have solved by capping the resulotion to 1900x1080
Are you using a big TV with a higher than that resolution?
Which exact Volumio version did you install?
People should stop saying âlatestâ , this put support on the wrong foot many times.
well, the fix is not as it ought to be, but I will have a look.
As for your issue, when the resolution changes and the mouse is still too small/ did not change, then I have no solution, sorryâŚ
Please start with describing âissues with gfxâ and âsome of the latest Intel HWâ (use the proper x86 support thread for it).
Asking for newer betas wonât solve your problems because there arenât any and currently there are no plans to produce more or move to 6.1
Sorry, still no relevant information and no idea what âgfxâ means, please read the prerequisites (see OP) for x86 support in the x86 thread. see here
I am not used to write in so technical forum⌠Sorry. Before posting nonsense in such a popular topic: is it okay if I write something like the below?
Hello Volumio users. Iâve read various posts that seem to deal with problems like mine, eventually I still havenât found an answer (or I donât understand the sulution, as I am not an expert). The system is a Dell Wyse 3040 thin client (x64 mini PC) running Volumio 3 (ver. 3.512 released on 2023-06-25). With the analog âHeadset/speakerâ output there are no reproduction problems (stereo). With the HDMI 0 (or HDMI 1) output connected to an Onkyo TX-NR509 AV-receiver indeed, playback works with any format (wav, flac, mp3, DSD, etcâŚ), even in multichannel, except for any file sampled at 44.1kHz. When I try to play files (but also and audio stream like a radio) at 44.1kHz, the system displays the following error: "Failed to open âalsaâ (alsa); error opening ALSA device âvolumioâ; snd_pcm_hw_params_set_buffer_time_near() failed: Invalid argumentâ.
I also generated a log (http://logs.volumio.org/volumio/Km2Sueh.html), if I have correctly understood the guide (Sending logs for troubleshooting - Volumio Documentation).
I am wondering if this problem, which looks to be known, is currently solved (and how) or if it is still unsolved and therefore it is useless to do further tests. Thank you in advance to anyone who can explain me something about.
there means not here @Wheaten Could you move these (current included) to the x86 support thread please?
@Ger80s Stefano, I know Dell Wyse 3040 fairly well (sold around 60 of them, pre-configured with Volumio).
Iâll look into this, no further info needed for the time being, thanks.
Hello, Iâm also experiencing the same problem via HDMI output (Volumio3 on x64 PC), indeed no problem using the analog output. The error writes âFailed to open âalsaâ (alsa); error opening ALSA device âvolumioâ; snd_pcm_hw_params_set_buffer_time_near() failed: Invalid argumentâ. Did you find a solution?
Looking at the alsa capabilities of the HDMI audio interface, it appears that it offers sample rates of 32000âŚ192000 Hz with sample formats S16_LE, S24_LE and S32_LE. It is hardware dependent.
This means that 44100, 88200 and 176400 Hz are not part of the supported range.
In case you wish to use HDMI with 44100 Hz files, then I suggest to use the upsampling feature in the Playback Options. 48000Hz would be the nearest, upsampling is lossless but does use a little cpu, which the 3040 should be able to handle. Of course, in case you also have 88200Hz files, upsample to 96000Hz. Sample format can remain the same.
Thank you gkkpch. Sorry for my late reply, I was not well. The answer is clear, what a strange behaivour has this HDMI controller. In fact the solution you suggested is what I am doing now. Do you think the post is usefull to other user and therefore to be published in the topic you suggested few days ago?
It is not really, there are more controllers or drivers which do not support all rates or formats. Sometimes it is also the receiver tv/ av-receiver) not accepting some of the formats. I doubt whether that is the case with yours.
Thank you gkkpch. One question/suggestion more, this time about resampling. Resampling options are about âbit depthâ and âsample frequancyâ (both inclusive the possible option ânativeâ), and quality. After resampling process, the output is always stereo, even if the original surce is multichanel. Suggestion: is it possible to add an option âChannelsâ where the user can choose between e.g. ânativeâ or âstereo downmixâ?
I tried at first using an old asus laptop, with the usb booting, bit it would throw an error. Tried etching with balena and rufus, and still got the same result. So I found an offer on a Kamrui KAMRUI AK1 Pro Mini PC Windows 11 Pro, 8GB RAM 256GB SSD, Intel Celeron N5105 Procesador, Quad Core Micro Computer, with an AMI bios. So I tried running the same usb, and got the same error, which reads as shown below. Any ideas how can I fix this?
