yauiclient v3 no audio X11 build

[Lonewolf1061]

Testing out the new X11 build of yauiclent3 this is what I found. Interface looks great, video  plays and looks great, but no audio.  Noticed the player does not appear in the audio settings manager under apps playing.
Apparently it is not connecting to the sound server. When you toggle the V and B keys I see the volume going up and down but no sound. All other apps on my system are working fine with no issues. The NextPVR web page works fine with sound on Firefox. 
Only thing that changed is a clean install of NextPVR ver  7.1.1.260616. I had v7.0.5.260307 with the beta installed on top of it that you gave me the link in the previous thread. That is all uninstalled and deleted including the beta version of yauiclent 3. I no longer have the deb file for the beta version, somehow it got deleted by accident. But the beta version DID work with sound and all. 

Linux Mint 22.3 X11 

If you need I can send you the NPVR logs and the yauiclient .json file as well as the logs. 

Thanks,
Ken

In your previous install during testing were you using Pipewire? The legacy x11 builds don't support it.

This has nothing to do with NextPVR.

Yes I was using pipewire with the beta version and it worked perfectly fine.
Keep in mind that pipewire is the default sound server in Linux Mint 22.x now as well as all current Ubuntu and Debian distros. Pipewire replaced pulse audio due to sound issues with pulse audio.

Understood and the deb file should handle it

What do you see with dpkg -l | grep yauiclient

PC:~$ sudo dpkg -l | grep yauiclient
[sudo] password for ken:
ii yauiclient-x11-legacy 1.0.0-1 amd64 NextPVR media player client (X11, Debian 11 legacy)

That is the output I see in the terminal.
Debian 11 (Bullseye) is old. Debian is now on 13 (Trixie). I don't think they were using pipewire in Debian 11. That's like over 4 years old

I see the problem I just updated the wiki with the non legacy x11 version with newer support

OK. let me go check it out. I let you know how it works out

Thanks Martin

Thanks sorry I forgot there were two x11 builds.

Martin

Yes! Success! All good now.
I was wondering why the legacy install was pulling in 3 extra dependencies because the beta did not.
The release version is all self contained, no extra dependencies needed.
I'll let you know if I find anything else, but I think you got a winner!
You guys rock! I think I owe you another donation for your great work.

Thanks again Martin!
