Bugzilla – Bug 4436
No AES output when wordclock signal is disconnected then reconnected
Last modified: 2008-08-04 14:02:45 UTC
Slimserver version used : 6.5.1 SlimServer_6.5_v2006-10-28.dmg Transporter firmware updated with firmware included with slimserver. Initial setup - connected Transporter word clock input to a 44.1 kHz word clock - connected Transporter AES output to Tact RCS 2.2X AES input - powered up Transporter - selected word clock as reference Works OK. Steps to reproduce the problem : - disconnect word clock input - reconnect word clock input There is no usable signal on the AES output If clock reference is set to internal clock, it works. If clock reference is set to external word clock (with clock on and cable connected), no AES output. The transporter has to be hard reset (unplug power cord) to get a signal on the AES output. Not very important but can cause a big loss of time. I think that problem is hardware or firmware related ant that SlimServer OS is not important. Frederic
Richard, is this something that could be fixed in firmware somehow, or is it truly a hardware issue?
I think this may be a xilinx issue. Will need to check with Sean.
Sean: can you comment?
Sean, any thoughts?
No idea, but I am revisiting a bunch of this stuff in the next couple of weeks and will look at this case.
Sean is working on this.
Could not reproduce this issue in trunk 17060 / firmware 40. Either the cause of it has been fixed in FW40, or it was some other problem with the setup.
Changing fixed target to 7.1 as FW 40 will be released then, not in 7.0.1
This bug has now been fixed in the 7.1 release version of SqueezeCenter! Please download the new version from http://www.slimdevices.com if you haven't already. If you are still experiencing this problem, feel free to reopen the bug with your new comments and we'll have another look.
