Streaming the PC sound (youtube,...)

[YannM]

Hi,
I found how to simply upstream the sound of the pc card to Rune (Windows). So here is the way:

* Rune Settings - UPnP / DLNA -> ON
* Install
* A new logo appears near the clock, simply right click on it and select Stream to: RuneAudio UPnP

There is a lag of 2 sec. (so it's of no use for movies), the sound is what it is, and you get ALL the sounds of the laptop (outlook notifications a.o.)
You can disable the sound on the pc through Windows volume control (but not at the software level)

Best,
Yann

Hi Frank,
No I don't think that info is valid for my current rune.

Maybe I was misunderstood - I wasn't talking about the streamed content (e.g played file or youtube stream) but for the SWYH settings (right click on icon- settings). By default it is set to 48kHz.

Ok then I don't know what the problem is :/

Anyway, FYI mind that SWYH is actually a 1kHz recording of the sound, no matter what you play.

It may be a bit off-topic but I use a Google Chromecast Audio to cast sound from my tablet to my separate DAC, e.g. a concert on Youtube. No Pi involved - sorry!

The sound quality is as good as the Pi (so not bad for another £30 device) and no lag.
