A NOTE has been added to this issue. ====================================================================== <https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=2188> ====================================================================== Reported By: Cimmo Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: ALSA - utils Issue ID: 2188 Category: alsamixer Reproducibility: always Severity: feature Priority: normal Status: new ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 06-07-2006 16:56 CEST Last Modified: 07-02-2006 05:13 CEST ====================================================================== Summary: Alsa mixer lack of some functions Description: Is it possible to add to the alsa-mixer the possibility to change these things: - dolby surround configurations: 2.0, 2.1, 4.0, 4.1, 5.1, 7.1 and the possibility to duplicate front sound to the rear speakers. - modify high and basses best things is changes are immediatelly available without relogging. These feature are missing to linux community that have always to trouble with configuration files. thanx for attention Marco ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Raymond - 07-02-06 04:38 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >> kmix sucks - it's alsa support is terrible. The most common complaint is that >> it can't properly distinguish a capture from a playback control. Before >> reporting bugs you should try with a "known good" mixer like alsamixer. You can't blame kmix when there is a bug in alsa simple mixer api, even amixer report AC97 3D Control are capture controls https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=1971 amixer Simple mixer control '3D Control - Switch',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Simple mixer control '3D Control Sigmatel - Depth',0 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 3 Mono: 0 [0%] Simple mixer control '3D Control Sigmatel - Rear Depth',0 Capabilities: volume volume-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Limits: 0 - 3 Mono: 0 [0%] It'e easy to write customized applications to handle specific control of sound cards using the same chip (e.g envy24control, ...) , but it is difficut ot write an USER FRIENDLY mixer application to handle all alsa drivers. alsamixer is actually a debug tool for alsa developer and user to debug the ALSA mixer api, it is not USER FRIENDLY. (e.g IEC958 Playback AC97-SPSA, I think only a few user know the exact meaning of this control ) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Raymond - 07-02-06 05:13 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Cimmo, >> I have no asound.state file in etc alsactl -f test.state store post the content of test.state and output of amixer Issue History Date Modified Username Field Change ====================================================================== 06-07-06 16:56 Cimmo New Issue 06-08-06 02:52 Raymond Note Added: 0010104 06-08-06 11:22 Cimmo Note Added: 0010111 06-09-06 07:08 Raymond Note Added: 0010134 06-09-06 11:20 Cimmo Note Added: 0010139 06-24-06 10:39 Cimmo Note Added: 0010471 06-24-06 17:04 rlrevell Note Added: 0010476 06-24-06 17:11 Cimmo Note Added: 0010477 06-24-06 17:20 rlrevell Note Added: 0010478 06-24-06 18:01 Cimmo File Added: alsa 06-24-06 18:02 Cimmo Note Added: 0010479 06-24-06 18:11 rlrevell Note Added: 0010480 06-24-06 18:26 Cimmo Note Added: 0010482 06-24-06 18:33 rlrevell Note Added: 0010483 06-24-06 18:37 Cimmo File Added: alsa-test 06-24-06 18:38 Cimmo Note Added: 0010484 06-24-06 18:55 rlrevell Note Added: 0010485 06-24-06 19:05 Cimmo Note Added: 0010486 06-24-06 19:17 rlrevell Note Added: 0010487 06-25-06 04:32 Raymond Note Added: 0010498 06-25-06 04:33 Raymond Note Edited: 0010498 06-25-06 12:16 Cimmo File Added: alsamixer.png 06-25-06 12:18 Cimmo Note Added: 0010506 06-25-06 12:20 Cimmo Note Edited: 0010506 06-25-06 14:05 Raymond Note Added: 0010508 06-25-06 14:46 Cimmo File Added: pcm 06-25-06 14:46 Cimmo File Added: cards 06-25-06 14:47 Cimmo Note Added: 0010509 06-25-06 15:24 Raymond Note Added: 0010511 06-25-06 15:26 Raymond Note Edited: 0010511 06-25-06 15:32 Cimmo Note Added: 0010512 06-25-06 18:29 Cimmo Note Edited: 0010512 06-25-06 18:30 Cimmo Note Edited: 0010512 06-25-06 18:32 Cimmo Note Edited: 0010512 06-27-06 09:01 Raymond Note Added: 0010569 06-27-06 09:29 Raymond Note Edited: 0010569 06-27-06 18:56 Cimmo Note Added: 0010597 06-27-06 19:07 rlrevell Note Added: 0010598 06-28-06 04:25 Raymond Note Added: 0010606 06-28-06 04:33 rlrevell Note Added: 0010607 06-28-06 10:45 Cimmo Note Added: 0010612 06-28-06 10:46 Cimmo Note Edited: 0010612 06-28-06 16:15 rlrevell Note Added: 0010619 06-28-06 16:36 Cimmo Note Added: 0010621 06-28-06 17:30 rlrevell Note Added: 0010623 06-30-06 11:05 Cimmo Note Added: 0010725 06-30-06 12:06 Cimmo Note Added: 0010726 06-30-06 12:18 Raymond Note Added: 0010727 06-30-06 12:24 Cimmo Note Added: 0010728 06-30-06 13:04 Raymond Note Added: 0010729 06-30-06 13:07 Raymond Note Edited: 0010729 06-30-06 13:08 Raymond Note Edited: 0010729 06-30-06 13:24 Raymond Note Added: 0010731 06-30-06 13:40 Cimmo Note Added: 0010732 06-30-06 15:04 Raymond Note Added: 0010736 06-30-06 16:14 rlrevell Note Added: 0010737 06-30-06 16:42 Cimmo Note Added: 0010741 06-30-06 16:50 rlrevell Note Added: 0010742 06-30-06 17:04 Cimmo Note Added: 0010743 06-30-06 17:09 Cimmo Note Edited: 0010743 06-30-06 17:11 Cimmo Note Edited: 0010743 06-30-06 17:11 rlrevell Note Added: 0010744 06-30-06 17:15 rlrevell Note Added: 0010745 07-02-06 04:14 Raymond Note Added: 0010769 07-02-06 04:24 Raymond Note Edited: 0010769 07-02-06 04:38 Raymond Note Added: 0010770 07-02-06 05:13 Raymond Note Added: 0010771 ====================================================================== Using Tomcat but need to do more?
