BTW I've 'forced' (16 bits 44.1kHz) in arecord with -f cd and doesn't work, too (just A/B ins). If alsa split inputs in 2 (hw:1,0 and hw:1,1) both should work separately, not just the first. Then there's hw:1,2 (I agree, should be a 24bits with all 4 ins problem here) but, at least, C/D alone should work. Just my 2 cents. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
