AFAIK, most AC97 chips cannot re-assign the front output as input.

Hmm... "0ch" is hard to understand what it means. The mathematical concept was invented quite ago, but we often don't follow the ancestor's idea. Instead of "0ch", I'd use "All Input" or such, which one can understand better literally. thanks, Takashi _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
