[Solved] No more than one audio source at a time.

I used alsa, now I'm using pulseaudio. The exact problem and all errors persist regardless of that.
If any program uses audio, even if it isn't at the moment doing that, I can't use other audio sources. For example, speaker-test says "Playback open error: -16,Device or resource busy" when another program that uses audio is running.
When vbox is running, without immediately playing any sound, I also have this problem. But I avoided it lately by setting "Null audio driver" in vbox settings so that I can listen to music while working in windows. Even when speaker-test is running, mpd, youtube, skype, vbox, can't play any sound.
Something maybe worth noting is that I recently had this problem resolved: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=184314 . I don't know if I did some changes back then which are important for this problem.
Thanks.

Did you install pulseaudio-alsa package? You would need to disable ~/.asoundrc or any other configuration overwriting the redirection of alsa to pulseaudio. Does virtual box work with pulseaudio?
Did you switch to pulseaudio, because of skype?

  • Why won't data merge allow more than one data source at a time?

    I need to number tickets, 8 up on a tabloid page, in InDesign (CS5)
    I have found out how to use data merge, but it won't allow me to select more than one data source at a time, therefore, making me use 800 sheets of paper instead of 100. That's not acceptable!! Is there a way to merge the pdfs if I make 8 different ones in the places they need to be? Each file that I export will have 100 pages, so is there a way to merge the files to put all eight tickets on each sheet, sequentially? This is driving me nuts!!!!!!!

    Past users have solved this frustrating problem. You can find their solutions with a Google search like "InDesign data merge multiple sequential items on one page" without quotes.

  • Changing a length of more than one audio file in same time

    Hi! I'm searching a way to change a length of the several audio files at the same time (this applies to ads that will be broadcast at the radio. The sounds need to have same time accurate to milliseconds). Let's say I've got 20 audio ads, which were originally meant to have 30 seconds, but each of audio file has small differences reaching less than a second. I would like to do a one-off activity, that will change length of each file to equal 30.000 seconds. In a word, is there a way to stretch several audio files, which have different time, to the same length at a same time ?

    Thank you for your reply, problem solved with the help of Adobe CC, but it turned out that one of open-source applications also can do it.

    GB can only record 8 tracks at a time, however that is 16 channels, so with some extra effort you can get the outcome you desire, see the second tip here:

  • Select  More than one Data Source in UM Configuration

    hi,
    We configure our portal EP 6.0 with the CRM Dev system, such that the users created in CRM Dev system reflect in portal as well.
    now the problem is in CRM Test system. when we create users, users are going to create in CRM test system.but our portal is configured with CRM Dev system.
    is there any way to configure portal with both CRM Dev system users and CRM test system users.
    thanks

  • HT1473 how can I download an more than one audio cd to itunes, scramble all and then transfer all back to a R/W cd?

    how can I download an more than one audio cd to itunes, scramble all and then transfer all back to a R/W cd?

    Import the CDs to iTunes one at a time, following these instructions.
    Once the tracks are in your iTunes library, put them into a playlist, and get them into the order you want.  Or if you by "scramble" you mean a randomly shuffled order, use the crossing arrows at the lower left to do so.
    When you are ready, insert a blank CD, use the command File > Burn Playlist to Disc, and create an audio CD.  I strongly suggest using CD-Rs rather than CD-RWs, since the latter often have trouble in normal CD players.

  • Binding a component to more than one data source in Design Studio 1.3

    Hi All,
    Is it possible to bind more than one data source to a component in Design Studio 1.3?
    I have 2 Bex queries- one having the current year data(say 06.2013-05.2014) and the other having the previous year data(say 06.2012-05.2013).
    I want to create a column chart with x axis labels as 06,07,08.............01,02,03,04,05.
    The 05 will show 2 columns for 05.2014 and 05.2013
    The 04 will show 2 columns for 04.2014 and 04.2013
    and so on
    The 06 will show 2 columns for 06.2013 and 05.2012.
    Can this be achieved in Design Studio if only one data source is possible for a column chart?
    Thanks in advance for your responses,
    Sarah

    I don't see where this is possible out of the box as the properties for the chart show only one data source
    Is the data coming from one InfoProvider?  If so could you create one query that shows current year and with a BEx variable/offset show prior year?

  • Create a logical column with more than one data source

    I'm having a problem to create a logical column with more than one data source in Siebel 7.8.
    What I want to do is the union of 2 physical tables in one logical table.
    For example, I have a "local_clients" table and a "abroad_clients" table. What I want is to have a logical table "clients" with the client data from the 2 tables.
    What I've tried is dragging the datasources I need onto the logical column.
    However this isn't working because it only retrieves the data from the first data source.

    Hi!
    I think it is not possible to do this just by dragging the columns to the logical table. A logical table can have more than one source, but I think each column must have just one direct source column.
    I'm not sure, but maybe you should do the UNION SQL to get the data of the two tables. In the physical layer, when you create a new physical table, it's possible to set the "table type" as a "SELECT". I didn't try that, but it seems that it's possible to have the union table in the physical layer.
    Bye.

  • How to use left outer join on more than one table (source)

    Hi all,
    In our project we are converting the Unix shell & SQL scripts into OWB mappings. We are facing problem converting left outer join in OWB. here is one of the example. i have just pasted the FROM and where condition.
    FROM ym_scr t1, branch_finmonth t3
    LEFT OUTER JOIN item_image t2
    ON (t1.branch_no = t2.branch_no
    AND t1.item_no = t2.item_no
    AND t3.to_date between t2.tran_dt and t2.to_dt
    AND t2.to_dt >= '$start_images' ) <<<========= '$start_images' THIS COMES FROM THE UNIX VARAIBLE ,
    We converts the same when we are putting it in OWB join Operator
    INGRP1.branch_no = INGRP2.branch_no(+)
    AND INGRP1.item_no = INGRP2.item_no(+)
    AND INGRP3.to_date between t2.tran_dt and t2.to_dt
    AND INGRP2.to_dt >= INGRP2.start_images
    But as you see in the OWB opreator we can put left join with INGRP1 with INGRP2.
    We can not make same join with INGRP3 & INGRP4 , becoz it failed saying "you cannot left outer join on more than one table/source".
    so overall this OWB code makes incomplete left outer join as per the above ANSI SQL join in Oracle.
    Bcoz of the problem we are getting less number of rows...........
    SO please please help me on this
    Regards
    Ashok

    Hi.
    I know this topic is here for a while now, but I had the same problem today, searched for help and didn´t find anything.
    Later I figured out how to do this.
    You just have to put the (+) one time, and the OWB converts in an LEFT OUTER JOIN statement.
    For this case, all you have to do is:
    ( INGRP1.branch_no = INGRP2.branch_no(+) AND INGRP1.item_no = INGRP2.item_no AND INGRP2.to_dt >= INGRP2.start_images )

  • Can a master data will have loading from more than one data source

    Dear gurus,
          I have a master data object which has every day loading from one particular data source. Now I got a requirement to load data from another data source. If we load data from more than one data source , will there be any problem with data? Will it accept loading from more than one data source.?
    Regards
    Rs

    Hi Ram,
    We can load the data to target morethan one datasource.Thats advantage in BI compare to BW. It will accept loading from more than one datasource.but you have to take care about characteristic and attributes are the same in both datasources like that.

  • View more than one audio instrument midi window at same time Logic 7

    Hello,
    Is it possible to open up more than one audio inst midi window at the same time?
    It would save me so much time if I could view what is going on ie on the guitar & piano tracks on 2 separate tracks at the same time.
    I know it is possible to double click on the grid of an audio inst midi window to view all midi in one song at the same time but because I have a lot of audio insts in my songs it gets really confusing. It would be ideal if I could pick and choose specifically which audio inst tracks are displayed within the same window when doing the double click thing or be able to view 2 tracks at once.
    Thanks in advance.

    Are you refering on how to be able to view the Matrix Editor/Piano roll of 2 Audio instrument tracks in one window?

  • Drill down more than one characteristic at the same time.

    Hi,
    Is there any way to drill down more than one characteristic at the same time?
    When I drill down by 0cust_sales I would like to have drilled down: division/distrchan/salesorg/cust_sales without having to do that one by one.
    thank you!

    Hi,
    This cannot be done unless these characterstics are related to each other in some way as Charactertics & Display Attributes.
    The reason being when you drill down the 0cust_sales , there is no link from 0Cust_sales to the other characterstics hence there is no prompt for these characterstics to be drilled down.
    However, a smiliar thing might be acheived by adding these chareacterstics into the 0cust_sales in teh query designer by dragging n dropping them over 0cust_sales. you can try this and see if this is close to your requiremetn.
    Kind Regards,
