If there are two different streamss on I2S and S/PDIF, and if the audio subsystem wants to route these streams to the same connector (widget 'hdmi-out'), then, somewhere, there should be a software or a design bug. No? Anyway, the tda998x cannot know if the double route is wanted or not. -- Ken ar c'henta? | ** Breizh ha Linux atav! ** Jef | http://moinejf.free.fr/
