OK, I hacked together something that seems to work. I'll still need to squash it with the earlier patch, but in case you want to see what the relative changes look like I pushed it to git://github.com/vsyrjala/linux.git lpe_audio_multipipe -- Ville Syrjälä Intel OTC _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
