Hi, i hacked together a little pcm config test program [dirty hack]. Grab it at
http://mistatapas.ath.cx:8888/pcm_config_test.tgz [that's my home machine, so it's not always on]. You can test for periodsizes, counts, samplerates, transfermethods and formats. You can test either cpature or playback or both.. THis program actually just opens the pcm device for each test and then tries to set the parameter. on success it is reported to the user. So it doesn _not_ try to actually output sound. you can use the pcm test program from the alsa-lib package for this. This program is to find ot what your hw can do if you don't know. Here's some usage examples: ./pcm_config_test hw:0,0 --playback --standard-samplerates test the device for some standard samplerates [see sourcecode for list] in playback mode ./pcm_config_test hw:0,0 --capture --playback --samplerates-range 44090 44110 tests for available samplerates in a range for playback and for capture ./pcm_config_test hw:0,0 --accessmethods --formats --playback --capture well, you get the point.. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/source/my_projects/pcm_config_test$ ./pcm_config_test --help -- alsa-lib pcm device config tester v0.0.1 -- usage: pcm_config_test <pcm-device-name> [options] options are: --playback --capture --standard-samplerates --samplerate-range x y --standard-periodsizes --periodsizes-range x y --standard-periodcounts --periodcounts-range x y --formats --accessmethods at least one of --capture and --playback is needed. you will also want at least one of the tests, pcm device name must be the first argument! My C stinks though. And the commandline parsing heavily relies on the user. If you specify a range test, you will have to specify range start and range end, otherwise you'll confuse the program. Please report bugs, and tips :) Flo -- signature :) ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
