Hi list, First post here. I have a problem. I have a atom/Ion based htpc and want to use HDMI and SPDIF on the Ion to output 2 channels. I have configured everything with the asound.conf file below and I get audio out of both HDMI and SPDIF nicely. I have two problems: 1) Audio is timed differently through the two interfaces. I'd like to add a hundred or so milliseconds delay to both channels of one of the outputs. Is there a way of doing this to get the two outputs in sync? 2) The HDMI output can only handle 48kHz output, the SPDIF can handle 44.1kHz or 48kHz. I want to be able to output bit-perfect 44.1 out of the SPDIF port when playing CDs. The SPDIF port will output 44.1kHz if I output to it alone (with a different config file), but the whole playback chain defaults to 48kHz as soon as the HDMI is used, no matter what sampling rate the source material has. Is there a way of getting a 44.1kHz signal out of the SPDIF port whilst replicating and sample rate converting it to 48kHz out through the HDMI port? Many thanks Andy -- asound.conf file: # # Define the "2ip_to_4op" port # Here it is a router that takes 2 input channels # and routes them to 4 output channels for the pcm.multi pcm to take # It defines a 4 channel output with the slave command # and then routes channel 0 input to channel 0 & 2 output # and routes channel 1 to outputs 1 and 3 # all with a unitary gain # pcm.2ip_to_4op { type route slave { pcm multi channels 4 } ttable.0.0 1.0 ttable.1.1 1.0 ttable.0.2 1.0 ttable.1.3 1.0 } # # Define the S/PDIF output (hw:0,1) as "digital_1" pcm.digital_1 { type hw card 0 device 1 channels 2 } # # Define the HDMI output (hw:0,3) as "digital_2" pcm.digital_2 { type hw card 0 device 3 channels 2 } # # Define the multi process which takes it's 4 channel input from # the "2ip_to_4op" pcm process.
