Hi Alsa developers/users, I'm using snd_device_name_hint("pcm"..) and then snd_device_name_get_hint(.."NAME") to get the NAME parameter of pcm devices. >From what I understand each sound card can have multiple PCM devices. Is it true that all sound cards that support Alsa will *always* have "default" pcm device? I'm more inclined towards using "default:CARD=<vendor>" as the parameter to snd_pcm_open(). This way if the program configures hardware params for any number of channels then the appropriate PCM device will be selected on the sound card, correct? Thanks, Bankim. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
