Toggling between audio outputs?

Post by jazzldazzl »

Dear All,

Is it possible to configure wtware to toggle onthefly between audio devices - HDMI, 3,5" jack, bluetooth and USB audio?

Thanks, so multiple audio outputs to choose from in device manager is not possible? Example: I use a headset connected on the 3,5" jack, and then decide the rest of the house should know what I´m listening to, and choose the output to be bluetooth streaming to the amplifier instead.

WTware is for boring office work. There are many media player distributions for Raspberry. I use OpenELEC on Raspberry in my car.

+1 for Openelec, although I´m more into Libreelec. Anyway, is it possible to send this command to wtware while it´s running:

amixer cset numid=3 1

and then

amixer cset numid=3 2

Then it should be doable. right? If in Raspbian, this can be done on the fly. Just dunno how to send commands to wtware when it´s running, only how to modify the config files.
