Hi,
Struggling to get the amp running with Arm Linux installed.
I use Arm Linux because of Mediaplayer and Songcast to get it tuned up with my Linn streamers.
Is there a manual to get it running with Arm Linux.
Regards,
Ad.

HiFiBerry team If ArchLinux is using the latest 3.18 kernel with device tress enabled, you can use this guide:

advr still no sound.
is Mediaplyer the cause of this? -
HiFiBerry team It looks like your media player is using a PCM format that it not supported by the driver. For 24bit, you need to use S24LE PCM format. Check with the developer of the software how this can be configured in the software.

advr Hi Daniel,
Thanks, I will ask him. Very strange because default is 16 bit 44.1 kHz.
I am using Pet Manchesters Mediaplayer which shout be 16 bit but I am also using Minimserver but it should be 16 bit converserion, I have a clue now.
Thanks!!

advr Solved the PCM 16/44.1 but still no sound.
Must be something else but what :-)
Will go on searching. -
HiFiBerry team Just checking that the hardware is installed correctly. You have power the Raspberry Pi by a single 18V power supply on the Amp - correct?
Best regards

HiFiBerry team For a check, you can simply use sox:
sudo apt-get install sox
play -n synth sine 1000
Does this work?
Best regards

Maybe that's it, stupid of me :-)
I only have power to the Pi.
There was no power adapter in the package and thought the power of the Pi would be sufficient.
But now I see the extra 2 powersypplies. This is stupid of me...
I have to order one?

advr What a fool am I....
Just found a 12V (at the board was printed 12-18v) and powered it and working!!
Now to find out which formats I can use :-)
But maybe an * at the HiFi Amp that an extra adapter is needed!
Thanks for the tip Daniel. I would certainly would take days to get this 'error'
Many thankful regards,

Thorsten Heitzmann advr - can you tell us a bit more about your setup? The perspective of getting the Raspi play in sync with my Linn stuff sounds tantalizing...
Or PMme, if you like. -
advr Hi Thorsten,
As I can't pm you somehow, this is my set up.
It can be done several ways.
But at the moment I am using a Rasp 3 with Runeaudio installed and a piface clock.
Besides that I installed Pete Manchester's mediaplayer and then play around a bit and it's working very nicely.
But the syn with songcast is not stable at the moment.
