I was asking about the actual hardware. The i.MX6UL has a Synchronous Audio Interface (SAI), where the data in the FIFO can be aligned anywhere within the 32-bit wide register through the use of the First Bit Shifted configuration field. In the corresponding Linux SAI driver the FBS field is set the way that data alignment for 24-bit data is: 31 30 29 28 | 27 26 25 24 | 23 22 21 20 | .. | 3 2 1 0 ## ## ## ## ## ## ## ## [ DATA[23:0] ] > > Meaning the left-most byte is zeroed, right? > > What does "left" mean when talking about memory? I should have said MSB first. _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list Alsa-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.alsa-project.org/mailman/listinfo/alsa-devel
