Hello I was wondering how easy it would be to add a classification to each control element. (switches, volume, capture on/off etc.) The classification would be as follows: - 1) Used during capture. I.E. Switches and volume controls for anything one can record. 2) Used during playback. I.E. Switches and volume controls for anything one can play. 3) General control. I.E. Hardware config. E.g. The SB Live Digital/Analogue switch for Digital SPDIF out/Analogue Center and LFE audio out.
Then have alsamixer be able to filter the display using these 3 categories. User presses a key, and alsamixer displays only the controls used to effect sound playback. User presses another key, and alsamixer displays only the controls used to effect sound recording. User presses another key, and alsamixer displays only the controls used to do other stuff. This sort of functionallity could help users understand what each control does better. In my view the SB Live has so many controls, it is very difficult to sort out which ones to use. Currently, alsamixer seems to link playback and record volumes, that should be separate.
