Setting Sound Clock for all cases/patterns are very complex and difficult actually. (ADV7482 configuration) x (ADG divider / selector) x etc, etc... Thus, Current R-Car sound is assuming that audio_clk_a/b/c/i are providing route clock (= no configuration, fixed clock), and ADG divides it, and provide best clock to each SSIx. Current Salvator/ULCB already have 44.1/48kHz route clock (= CS2000 and Audio_CLK_A), and we can reuse it for all SSIx. Thus, ADV7482 clock is not necessary, I guess ? Or providing specific clock for some case is enough (ADG will automatically select it if necessary). If ADV7482 needs more detail clock settings combination, then, there is no method to adjust to it. We need to consider such system somehow. Thank you for your help !! Best regards --- Kuninori Morimoto
