    • Help Needed: How to select a audio channel from script (Karaoke script)

    March 10th, 2010 | portal.cgkz.com | edit

  • I am trying to develop a Karaoke script to playback Karaoke movies.
    Actually, I have done a PC Application to playback Karaoke MPEG files and using PDA as remote controller.

    Personal Karaoke (http://kwyshell.myweb.hinet.net/Product/KTV/index.html)
    (Sorry only Taiwanese page, I'll write a English version soon)

    I want to use XBMC as my media player and using SMB to playback the media files.
    My Karaoke server will connect the script via network TCP/IP and pass command from server.

    The PDA remote controller software has a function to select rhythm only or stereo.
    The only problem is that I cannot select a audio channel from Python player class.

    Karaoke mpeg files have 2 audio channels, one for rhythm only and the other for main voice.
    I know you can use UI DVD menu->Audio Settings->Select Channel but how to control it from script.

    If it's not possible to control it, any suggestion to do this?

    Thanks!:blush:


  • I'm also working on something similar and need to be able to change the audio stream of VOB files. Could someone please help. Thanks in advance.


  • should be


  • I am going to try xbmc HTTPAPI to replace python script.
    HTTPAPI seems to provide more control function than python api.

    Actually, I have succeeded to play a smb://mpeg file over HTTPAPI.
    I bought a external AMP for audio selection.
    Now I just put my XBOX under this AMP. :;):

    Not good but.... still workable ...
    I can enjoy my Home Karakoe system without putting a PC in my living room.
    :nod:

    I'm still can't find a way to change the audio stream of VOB files. Does any know a way around it from script?

    kwyshell, I don't how the external AMP would help?


  • well currently there isn't anyway to do this. but a patch would be accepted i'd think. so anybody up to the challange :)


  • All the HTTP API commands and XBMC's built-in commands should be available through python as well, ...I think? http://xboxmediacenter.com/wiki/index.php?title=WebServerHTTP-API#Python

    right? ???
