Using hw:1:0, I get the error message "sample format non available" most of the time, I guess the reason is that it is a 24bit sound card and my files are 16bit. So what I want is: No dmix, but automatic conversion to 24 bit. Is there a simple way to do that? > (your "default" PCM is defined in $PREFIX/share/alsa/cards/ICE1712.conf) On my system it is /usr/share/alsa/cards/ICE1712.conf. Should I really edit that file? I have some hesitations to touch files in the /usr/-directory ~michael ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
