Hello, I have been working on my setup for a while now, and the only thing that has been troublesome has been the sound. Many thanks to this list and to Jarod for his guide!
I picked up a TB Riviera card, and can't seem to get the Myth to put sound out the SPDIF. I can play sounds/music through the SPDIF at the shell (either via aplay or mplayer). I have been using the Digital Sound HowTo at - http://www.mythtv.info/moin.cgi/DigitalSoundHowTo. This document has been tremedously helpful. I am acutally using the .asoundrc file listed on that site. I believe even though I have different hardware, that the SPDIF for the Riviera is on device 2 of card 0 (hw:0,2) Here is the output of my aplay -l aplay -l **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** card 0: CMI8738MC6 [C-Media PCI CMI8738-MC6], device 0: CMI8738-MC6 [C-Media PCI DAC/ADC] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: CMI8738MC6 [C-Media PCI CMI8738-MC6], device 1: CMI8738-MC6 [C-Media PCI 2nd DAC] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: CMI8738MC6 [C-Media PCI CMI8738-MC6], device 2: CMI8738-MC6 [C-Media PCI IEC958] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 What I am hoping is that someone would either A) share a .asoundrc file that allows them to use the SPDIF on a Turtle Beach Riviera (or similar chipset: C-Media CMI8738-MC6) card. or B) help me understand how to figure out which audio device is the SPDIF so I can modify the asoundrc I have. I've been lurking for a few days, searching the archives and google trying to find out what I am missing. I've learned a lot - and hope someone can save me more head trauma !! Thanks!
