Hi Romain, Russell, Jose,

This is a little out of scope, but I was wondering why the CTS calculation was not left
in AUTO mode in the dw-hdmi driver ?

In the Amlogic Vendor tree, they don't set the HDMI_AUD_CTS3_CTS_MANUAL bit and leave
the CTS value to 0.

I am wondering if the AUTO feature is specific to newer IP version, or it was disabled
in the iMX.6 IP configuration ? or simply tied to the AHB audio specificity.

It would be simpler and smarter to leave the AUTO feature enabled for I2S and S/PDIF
input when the IP supports it.

Jose, is there a config bit for this feature, or a specific IP version where it landed ?

Anyway, we should really differentiate the AHB audio and I2S/SPDIF audio in the CTS/N calculation,
since the I2S/SPDIF depends on an different clock for audio input and the AUTO CTS calculation
feature will certainly offer a better clock synchronization.

Thanks,
Neil
