I know thats inportant, but I dont know how important. Theres also the issue that some of these firewire ADDA converters might not use mLAN or A+M. In that case things may even e easier - assuming we can get specs from the mantufacturer. > As I understand it, Bob Ham had/is working on implementing 61883 support for > Jack, which seems like it's needed for mLan, a layer below it perhaps?

I think its quite 61883 flavoured though - so if/when its working it should be hard to make it real 61883. - Steve
