You can call snd_config_search() with snd_config as root config. For example, snd_config_t *n; long val; if (snd_config_search(snd_config, "YOUR.CONFIG", &n) < 0) error(); if (snd_config_get_integer(n, &val) < 0) error(); Takashi _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
