I spent several hours once trying to get: mplayer -vo gl_nosw -ao alsa:device=hw=0.1 -ac hwdts,hwac3, to use a name instead of the hw=0 stuff and nothing I tried was able to send sound out the optical output that device talks to. I've actually never seen an example anywhere on the web that describes exactly how to use a name instead of a number showing exactly what the number looks like first and exactly how to determine how to change that specific number into a name given the info in aplay -l or -L, etc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Alsa-user mailing list Alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-user
