Okay, Lee, that confirms I need to do a little more homework. I'll try to get the sound to go into this SB card. My attempts so far have not worked. Before I do that, I'll try to get the HG code running on my machine. I'll also look at how we are using ALSA at the station. I thought it was via alsaplayer to get at the Mia card, which is then piped to ICES. Perhaps the original engineer did not include some flag or something. Thanks very much for pointing me in the right direction. As a small token of my appreciation, when (dare I say "if") I get the HG stuff up and running, I'll forward my experiences to you and you can do with them what you will. -Chris _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
