Me either, I just meant that this is a well known model for structuring this sort of hardware and software so it should be a good model to follow. > Also, IMO, it would make more sense to implement it as a Virtual card > independent > of ASoC(outside of linux/sound/soc/), with number of devices equalling > the number > of shifters registered. I agree, though it would be nice to have some facility for implementing an interface between the two since you can get IEC958 I/O on ASoC CODECs. I don't think that's needed at first pass, but it may come up at some point. _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
