ABC/HR for Java doesn't work, it gives me an error when I try to play anything.

And "abx" gives me this error on the command line:

Code: [Select]

ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:990:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) The dmix plugin supports only playback stream

maybe this ~ http://lacinato.com/cm/software/othersoft/abx

Is this the latest ABC/HR for Java? rpp3po's Version 0.53a:

I solved my problem. The native "abx" program and the Java ABX tools work, but your PC has to support multiple audio streams at the same time. If it doesn't support multiple audio streams on hardware, you have to use a software mixer (dmix). ABC/HR for Java doesn't work.

I changed my /etc/asound.conf file from this:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

pcm.dsp {
   type hw  
   card 0
}

to this:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Code: [Select]

pcm.!default {
   type plug
   slave.pcm "dmixer"
}

pcm.dmixer {
   type dmix
   ipc_key 1024
   slave {
           pcm "hw:0"
           period_time 0
   }
   bindings {
        0 0
        1 1
   }
}

ctl.!default {
   type hw
   card 0
}
