Hi, I'm trying to patch the alsasrc&alsasink gstreamer plugins to be able to show nice names in user interfaces. Given a card number, using snd_card_get_name gets me what I want easily. Unfortunately, that's not what I have available : I just have a snd_pcm_t*, opened on a char* which may look like "hw:1,0". I know that I can snd_ctl_open a snd_ctl_t* with "hw:1", then get a snd_ctl_card_info_t*, on which I can call snd_ctl_card_info_get_card, to finally be able to call snd_card_get_name (sic). The problem with this approach (well, apart from the fact that it is overly complex), is that snd_ctl_open fails if something like "hw:1,0" is given to it. Is there a sane and simple way to obtain the name of a card from the data I have ? JP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
