A NOTE has been added to this issue. ====================================================================== <https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=2180> ====================================================================== Reported By: Andy Lyon Assigned To: tiwai ====================================================================== Project: ALSA - driver Issue ID: 2180 Category: PCI - atiixp Reproducibility: always Severity: minor Priority: normal Status: assigned Distribution: Gentoo Kernel Version: 2.6.15 ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 06-02-2006 14:45 CEST Last Modified: 06-15-2006 12:45 CEST ====================================================================== Summary: SPDIF output does not work atiixp shuttle ST62K Description: Drivers loaded fine, spdif output listed aplay -l, no output produced at all, no red light either. any suggestions? info I could provide that might help? ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Andy Lyon - 06-06-06 12:57 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, Fixed (sort of!) Over the weekend I rebuilt my system and reinstalled the os from scratch, I now have spdif working by passing spdif_aclink=0 to snd-atiixp, there are still some issues and I have some questions if anybody could help.. volume control does not work when output is plug:spdif, in fact I can mute every single channel playback/capture using alsamixer and it does not affect the spdif output at all, it keeps playing! likewise the line in / mic in etc do not output to spdif, but i can capture from them and playback to spdif using a named pipe and aplay/arecord. I am looking into using softvol to control volume. I take it that the iec958 is not "connected" to the ac97 chip, is there anywhere i can get documentation or datasheets explaining what the two different modes (direct and via ac97) actually are and how they differ? I'm interested in how the chipset works.. if i fast forward or seek a mp3 in xmms when i resume playback the rest of the track plays very quickly with no sound output. I can live with these issues, im just pleased that spdif works at all, I had tried using the spdif_aclink option before but it did not work, I now think that I had another issue with kernel modules or init scripts that was preventing the latest alsa from loading properly. :) andy ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Andy Lyon - 06-15-06 12:45 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, Is there anything I can do about the seek issue with spdif output? seeking or fast forwarding in xmms is impossible and unfortunately i have now found that the same issue exists in mythtv, but it accurs when i change channel :( causes the video to go very stuttery and the only way to resolve is restart myth. ive tried using artsd to keep a constant feed going to the spdif and then set xmms and myth to output to arts but that doesnt work at all, i cannot get any output.
