[Alsa-user] Alsa ignores rate setting in thread, unlike normal function call, is there a reason?

2007-04-28 Thread stan
Hi, I'm writing an app that generates and sends sound to the sound card via ALSA. When I run it with a regular function call, everything works fine. But I thought I could scavenge a few cycles by spawning the write to alsa using snd_pcm_writei in a thread. So I modified the function to unpack t

[Alsa-user] chaintech AV710 on FC6 using spdif output for analog stereo, recording with audacity

2007-04-28 Thread stan
Hi, This isn't a problem. I just configured the Chaintech AV710 card to work on FC6 and thought I would post the results so others don't have to do the research. Driver is ice1724. The Wolfson DAC is the black receptacle right next to the SPDIF optical output, back surr. That is where to plug

Hi, I found out that the problem was a bad optical cable. SPDIF input works fine. Sorry for disturbing. -- Mikhail On Thu, Apr 19, 2007 at 02:31:38PM +0400, Mikhail Kryshen wrote: > Hi, > > I'm trying to record audio from Roland VS-880EX Workstation by optical > cable using the iec958 input

Only front two speakers work in my 5.1 surround system. If I set to Duplicate Front, rear two work too when front have to, but center and subwoofer still don't. I use kubuntu Feisty Fawn (7.04), 2.6.20-15-generic kernel and alsa version 1.0.13-3ubuntu1, which is the latest in (k)ubuntu repositori

I finally bought that card. The confusion is that the card is sold as Aureon 5.1 PCI, but after unpacking I realized that it is actually Aureon 5.1 Fun (the board is labeled so). The chipset is CMI 8738, supported by ALSA module snd-cmipci. Until now I have tested SPDIF with stereo PCI, Dolby D
