I have found the following: For the working capture (spdif input in my case), the function snd_pcm_lib_read1 gets called first with SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED, and consequently repeatedly with SNDRV_PCM_STATE_RUNNING. strace arecord : ... write(1, "data\0\0\0\200", 8data) = 8 ioctl(4, 0x800c4151, 0xbfbf5310) = 0 write(1, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 16384) = 16384 ioctl(4, 0x800c4151, 0xbfbf5310) = 0 write(1, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 16384) = 16384 ... Whereas for the broken analog input, the sequence is 1. snd_pcm_lib_read1 with SNDRV_PCM_STATE_PREPARED - returns 0 2. snd_pcm_lib_read1 with SNDRV_PCM_STATE_SETUP - returns -EBADFD strace arecord: write(1, "data\0\0\0\200", 8data) = 8 ioctl(4, 0x800c4151, 0xbfa6cff0) = 0 poll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN|POLLERR|POLLNVAL, revents=POLLIN|POLLERR}], 1, 1000) = 1 ioctl(4, 0x800c4151, 0xbfa6cff0) = -1 EBADFD (File descriptor in bad state) write(2, "arecord: pcm_read:1346: ", 24arecord: pcm_read:1346: ) = 24 The broken input falls to polling - is it somehow blocked? Thanks a lot for further hints. Pavel. _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
