Tried it, still had the second-track-produces-silence bug on my receiver so I couldn't test it properly. I however did manage to create a different patch which fixed my receiver bug (yay!)...by sending "refer-to-stream-header" audio infoframes from pcm close to pcm open...something like this quick hack: --- linux-2.6.32-rc5/sound/pci/hda/patch_intelhdmi.c 2009-10-16 02:41:50.000000000 +0200 +++ ../linux-2.6.32-rc5/sound/pci/hda/patch_intelhdmi.c 2009-10-26 23:39:54.000000000 +0100 @@ -552,8 +552,16 @@ struct snd_pcm_substream *substream) { struct intel_hdmi_spec *spec = codec->spec; + struct hdmi_audio_infoframe ai = { + .type = 0x84, + .ver = 0x01, + .len = 0x0a, + .CC02_CT47 = 0x00, + }; hdmi_stop_infoframe_trans(codec); + hdmi_fill_audio_infoframe(codec, &ai); + hdmi_start_infoframe_trans(codec); return snd_hda_multi_out_dig_close(codec, &spec->multiout); } @@ -571,6 +579,7 @@ hdmi_set_channel_count(codec, substream->runtime->channels); + hdmi_stop_infoframe_trans(codec); hdmi_setup_audio_infoframe(codec, substream); return 0; Not sure how/if something like that could be turned into an acceptable patch though... -- David Härdeman ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
