OpenShot Video Editor

how to select an audio device?

Asked by Claudio Laurita

when I run openshot in a terminal, I see the message
[consumer sdl] SDL failed to open audio: No available audio device

I'm using Mint 11 64bit (ubuntu 11.04) and pure alsa, without pulseaudio.
Is there a way to tell openshot to use a particular alsa device?
where is the configuration stored?

Thanks in advance
Claudio

Hi,

Following this thread : http://openshotusers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1060, and if my memory is good, you can use libsdl1.2debian instead of libsdl1.2-pulseaudio. Changing just this dependency should be the trick without your intervention.
