Okay, I don't have much choice but to try the devel list, having tried the Fedora mailling lists and alsa-users. I'm unable to record from a toslink source as described below, it's possible I've just missed some detail. Fedora Core 5 Kernel: 2.6.16-1.2122_FC5 Alsa: alsa-lib-1.0.11-4.rc2 details follow: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Ian Malone <ibmalone@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Jun 16, 2006 8:19 PM Subject: Re: [Alsa-user] Recording spdif/iec958 on ice1724 terratec 7.1 space To: alsa-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Ian Malone wrote: Ping? Does anyone have any suggestions about what might be wrong here? Summary: Recording from SPDIF input on ICE1724 device (Terratec 7.1 Space, but same chipset as the 5.1 Sky) records only silence. Rebooting the same machine into windows recording works fine. Recording source is a DAB radio, apparently at 32kHz (at least, arecord tells me it was unable to select the requested rate if I choose anything else). Tried the commands: $ arecord -D hwplug:0,1 -f cd test.wav $ arecord -D hw:0,1 -f S32_LE -r 32000 test.wav $ arecord -D plug:spdif -f cd test.wav have tried -f dat instead of -f cd where applicable. The equivalent hw:0,0 (analogue) successfully records from line-in with a loopback cable. I have checked alsamixer, and the IEC958 source has capture enabled, as does line-in. The alsa matrix claims tosio for the 5.1, does that work? -- imalone _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
