I have successfully streamed audio to ISO61883 complaint devices from Linux. I used a slightly hacked 1394 video kernel module to do so. This was back when the alsa documentation was non-existent, and I decided I didn't have enough time to write an alsa version. (I was using it to test a prototype firewire link layer chip, so actual OSS or ALSA support was superfluous ) One thing I do know though, is that the first MOTU boxes were not ISO61883 compliant in any way. They used their own proprietary format. I had a look at one with a 1394 bus analyser, and it looked easy enough to figure out. > If so, please tell me where to find more info! I'm afraid you now know as much as I do. The only reason I chirped up was that if someone needs help figuring out the format, or has questions about on-the-wire formats for 61883 or mLAN devices, I can help. If nothing else, I have a firewire bus analyser. Have you looked here? : http://www.linux1394.org/amdtp.html It looks like they are doing it the way I did - simple user-land access to an interface that gives you raw access to the bus.
