The samples appear to be unharmed. I have "speaker-test -c2 -tsine -Dfront" outputting samples through the emu1212m. A sine wave then appears on the input of another PC with an SPDIF capture card. I have not yet verified if the samples are being interpolated or not. The datasheets should give me enough information in order to get full 192kHz Audio capture and playback working, but that will take a rather large rework of the snd-emu10k1 driver. For example, 48kHz stereo uses 2 FX_BUS channels, 96kHz mono uses 4, 192kHz uses 8! The snd-emu10k1 driver is currently only set up to output 48kHz stereo using 2 FX_BUS channels. So, initially, I will only be implementing support for SPDIF and DAC/ADC inputs/outputs at 48kHz. My code needs a lot of clean up now, but I hope to be checking it in to hg this weekend. :-) Cheers James ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
