Bug 435472 – media-tv/xbmc - add support for pulseaudio channels map

• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Matthias Fulz 2012-09-19 04:47:03 UTC]

In the XBMC git the channels map are not set when using pulseaudio.
Therefore multi channel sound like 5.1 surround is in wrong speaker layout.

There is a patch available: http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/13211

This one is working perfect for me, perhaps it could be included into portage.

there's very little patching that we're doing to the live code for now.  we'd rather let upstream sort things out.  you can use /etc/portage/patches in the mean time.
