   Hi,
 
   I have resolved my problem but my stereo recording troubles did not 
 involve the SPDIF. Unfortunately my SPDIF is connected to a yammaha 
 sound card that is unsupported under linux so I can not test SPDIF.
 
   My audio inputs are on lines 7/8 of my card.
 
   I have played around swapping lines.
 
   I think if I record in mono then it records all lines ?
 
   If I record in stereo then it uses 1/2. Hence the change from mono to 
 stereo made my input dissappear.

Interesting theory.
How do I find out on what lines my audio comes in?

   I am not sure how to make arecord record my different lines. I have 
 found and .asoundrc for selecting output but I am not sure about input.

If the default ice1712 config is broken it needs fixing.

Who can help here?

  Well the ADC inputs appear to be 0-7 so I guess the SPDIFF is 8-9 ?

Hi,

  OK I played with .asoundrc (quicker than trying to understand the docs).

  I can now record/playback on any lines. It appears that 
record/playback use the same entries in the .asoundrc ?  The ttable 
maps input channels onto output channels.Here is what I have got in 
.asoundrc . I had to modify the examples in the alsa docs changing some 
ttable.0 to ttable.1 to get stereo.

#
# allows you to play/record stereo to/from ice1712
# using various stereo pairs
#
#
#  arecord -c2 -f cd -D 7/8 slug.wav
#
#  aplay -D 3/4 slug.wav

pcm.ice1712 {

You could try

arecord -v -f cd -D dig   test.wav

No idea.  Must be a driver bug.  Please file a report in ALSA bug

 just tried
 
 arecord -r 48000 -f S16
 
 this is fine.
 
 So it looks like my problem is recording stereo.

I have the same issue on a DiO2496 from M-Audio.

 Do I need something in .asoundrc ?

Dunno. I posted some links to archived posts a efw days ago about this

Quoting Harald Gutmann [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 hello!

 i've installed a new gentoo system on my desktop pc. (gentoo 2006.1)
 then i tried to record something with arecord, but the soundquality is
 extremely bad.
 but recording with wavrec is at good quality, like i'm used to it.

 i don't know where to search for the mistake, i can't explain this crazy
 behavior from arecord.
 with jackd (and realtime-lsm) the recordings are also in a good quality.


 some informations on my system installed alsa-komponents:

 all alsa-kernel-parts  are installed as modules in the kernel.
 configuration i'd done with alsaconf.

 the problem is, that some other applications have also bad quality. (for
 example: skype)


 where can the mistake be?
 any ideas to this problem?

I have this same problem with my DiO2496. Also ice1712.

So what would be different here?
