Bug+temp.fix for Audio input from Line-In

[fbsoft]

Hello guys,
Recently i stumbled upon the bug for how to actualy play audio from a device that uses the line-in for audio. The bug is as follows:
For Tv tunners ( the tests were with a BT878, BT878A, and a recent Leadtek DTV2000 H PLUS ) is most common this problem when you try to watch some channels/listen to FM through VLC and the audio is out... ( i have tryed with an USB Hybrid kworld tv tunner and the bug didn't appeared because it wasn't using line-in ofcourse ). Anyway after a little surfing, nowhere the sollution was found and i started to look at the cmd line.
After i enabled all the options i wanted, i've had the following line :

Code: Select all

dshow-vdev= [b]:dshow-adev=SoundMAX Digital Audio:dshow-caching=200 :dshow-vdev= :dshow-adev=SoundMAX Digital Audio[/b] :dshow-size= :dshow-chroma= :dshow-fps=0 :dshow-config :dshow-tuner :dshow-tuner-channel=yy :dshow-tuner-country=xx :dshow-tuner-input=2 :dshow-video-input=-1 :dshow-video-output=-1 :dshow-audio-input=-1 :dshow-audio-output=-1 :dshow-amtuner-mode=1 :dshow-audio-channels=1 :dshow-audio-samplerate=44100 :dshow-audio-bitspersample=24

This is the output with clicking even the advanced tab... After a little tinkering...

Code: Select all

:dshow-vdev= [b]:dshow-adev=SoundMAX Digital Audio :dshow-caching=200[/b] :dshow-size= :dshow-chroma= :dshow-fps=0 :dshow-config :dshow-tuner :dshow-tuner-channel=yy :dshow-tuner-country=xx :dshow-tuner-input=2 :dshow-video-input=-1 :dshow-video-output=-1 :dshow-audio-input=-1 :dshow-audio-output=-1 :dshow-amtuner-mode=1 :dshow-audio-channels=1 :dshow-audio-samplerate=44100 :dshow-audio-bitspersample=16

This is what i came up with ( no error on the sound device ),but i still had no sound ... The next IMPORTANT trick is to go to advanced and unselect ANY audio device input ( CD/line-in/etc... ( untick Enable ) for each of them and then go on with your settings. At the end VLC will ask about the input device that you want to capture the sound from and then you can select Line-in.

This is all.... sry for not posting it on Trac but my time doesn't permit to go to irc channels and stuff.. this is much faster for me. 10x and sorry again for the inconvenience
