Hello All; I am in release testing with a fix to our product to use 4 channels on a CMEDIA 8738-MC6 (previously we only used 2 channels on the CMEDIA and a separate soundcard for the 2 back channels). The 8738 is a pretty funny old duck of a chip and i am trying to work around a subset of it's many idiosyncracies. :-) The most glaring defect is the absence of hard volume on the back channels *and* that the back channel is louder than the front channel. Obviously, this is a great candidate for softvol! Softvol works quite well *except* that the max volume for the rear channel is now much quieter than it is without softvol. :-( Is there anything i can do to alter this behavior? I notice that there is an initial minimal DB in the file: #define PRESET_MIN_DB -51.0 is this where everything starts from? if i bump this up, will i get a higher max volume? tnx! johnu _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
