AFAIK this constraint is for applications to know, that only the 24 bit MSB is valid in S32_LE (for example the ice1712 also sets this constraint to let application know). The datasheet of twl4030 series states, that it supports this coding, so IMHO it does not hurt to let applications know this fact. But yeah, it will discard the the 8 bit LSB for sure. -- Péter _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
