I have not had time to look at the AC97-TLV, but if it works, I can't
see why I would object.
I have never come across a sound card with linear volumes.
Could you identify a few of them, and also better explain the formula
you are using for the conversion to dB gain.
*db_gain = (long)(100.0 * 20.0 *
log10((double)(volume - rec->min) /
(double)(max - min)));
So, 0 dB is when (volume - rec->min) / (max - min) == 1
So, for +6 dB gain, the volume will need to be higher than max?
Does this sound right? In that case, maybe "max" is not a good name for
it because volume can be greater than max.
