Hi, At the moment I'm debugging an alsa-oss emulation related bug. I'm using alsa .9.8 on a i810 card. Using native alsa code I can query the capabilities of the card. Alsa tells that only some 16bit formats are supported which is is correct. When I'm in oss emulation mode, the driver also advertises various 8bit formats which is wrong. Because of this problem the app I'm debugging (Wine) is crashing as it tries to use 8bit while it isn't supported.
After some digging in the alsa oss source I found this in snd_pcm_oss_get_formats of pcm_oss.c: if ((err = snd_pcm_oss_get_active_substream(pcm_oss_file, &substream)) < 0) return err; if (atomic_read(&substream->runtime->mmap_count)) { direct = 1; } else { snd_pcm_oss_setup_t *setup = substream->oss.setup; direct = (setup != NULL && setup->direct); } if (!direct) return AFMT_MU_LAW | AFMT_U8 | AFMT_S16_LE | AFMT_S16_BE | AFMT_S8 | AFMT_U16_LE | AFMT_U16_BE; The supported formats alsa returns in my case is what you see behind the if(!direct) line, so for some reason direct = 0. As I barely know anything about alsa I hope you guys can help me out. Thanks in advance, Roderick Colenbrander ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.
