aucat can do multi-streaming. that is what you want. and this would explicitely not conflict with multi-streaming because you would need more than one dac for that. I'm not aware of azalia in audio "cards", or even two controllers in one mother board, so there is a limit of 5 channels from azalia. the only multi-channel "cards" supported by OpenBSD that I know of, besides envy(4), are cmpci(4). -- jake...@sdf.lonestar.org SDF Public Access UNIX System - http://sdf.lonestar.org
