I'm trying to get mplayer to play DVDs, running on top of an Android kernel (since I couldn't find any Android applications who could play DVDs straight from the drive). So far, the video works, but the audio doesn't. mplayer tells me: Opening audio decoder: [ffmpeg] FFmpeg/libavcodec audio decoders AUDIO: 48000 Hz, 2 ch, s16le, 384.0 kbit/25.00% (ratio: 48000->192000) Selected audio codec: [ffac3] afm: ffmpeg (FFmpeg AC-3) ========================================================================== [AO_ALSA] alsa-lib: pcm_hw.c:1293:(snd_pcm_hw_open) open '/dev/snd/pcmC0D0p' failed (-16): Device or resource busy [AO_ALSA] Playback open error: Device or resource busy Failed to initialize audio driver 'alsa:device=hw=0.0' Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound. Audio: no sound Now, I don't know much about this kernel, but it does have some of the expected ALSA files: # l /dev/snd/ total 0 crw-------. 1 root root 116, 0 jan 1 1970 controlC0 crw-------. 1 root root 116, 16 jan 1 1970 pcmC0D0p crw-------. 1 root root 116, 33 jan 1 1970 timer # But "amixer controls" shows nothing, and alsamixer tells me it finds a card called RK-HDMI-I2S (the "RK" is probably because the SoC used is a Rockchip), but with no controls whatsoever. OTOH the dmesg tells me: [ 1.140363] ALSA device list: [ 1.140384] No soundcards found. Does someone have an idea what might be going on or how I could figure it out? The HDMI audio support in the kernel does work for Android applications, but I know very little about what that means, when seen from a GNU/Linux point of view (I'm running a Debian user-space on this Android kernel).
