Hi all, please can you help me. I can't play 24bit samples on ESI Juli@ thru optical out. driver: snd_ice1724 alsa version: I need to find out when I get home. But something in Fedora11. I guess 1.0.21. $ aplay -D plughw:1,1 01.Desafinado.wav Playing WAVE '01.Desafinado.wav' : Signed 24 bit Little Endian in 3bytes, Rate 96000 Hz, Stereo $cat /proc/asound/card1/pcm1p/sub0/hw_params access: MMAP_INTERLEAVED format: S32_LE subformat: STD channels: 2 rate: 96000 (96000/1) period_size: 2048 buffer_size: 8192 result: no sound Note I didn't get any error/warning. same results with speaker-test -c2 --device plughw:1,1 --rate 96000 --format S24_LE but I can hear some noise with: speaker-test -c2 --device plughw:1,1 --rate 44100 --format S16_LE speaker-test -c2 --device plughw:1,1 --rate 96000 --format S32_LE I guess noise is expected (OK), isn't? My goal is to play bit perfect 16/44.1 and 24/96 via optical out into my DAC Styleaudio Topaz. thnx. in advance :) Peter. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Return on Information: Google Enterprise Search pays you back Get the facts. http://p.sf.net/sfu/google-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
