How to add support for A_LAW pcm format to ALSA Loop driver ?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I see that the ALSA Loop driver supports only the following formats:

	.formats =	(SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S16_LE | SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S16_BE |
			 SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S24_LE | SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S24_BE |
			 SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S24_3LE | SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S24_3BE |
			 SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S32_LE | SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_S32_BE |
			 SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_FLOAT_LE | SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_FLOAT_BE),


I'd like to have Loopback service with A_LAW format, I though it would 
just require to add SNDRV_PCM_FMTBIT_A_LAW to the format above as the 
Loopback driver just loops the samples.

But it doesn't work, I still get only the following formats:

ALSA ERROR hw_params: set (FORMAT)
            value = A_LAW : Invalid argument

TICK_TIME: ALL
ALSA lib pcm.c:8644:(snd_pcm_set_params) Sample format not available for 
CAPTURE: Invalid argument


What am I missing, what needs to be added to the Loop driver to support 
A_LAW format ?

Thanks for your help
Christophe
