there are small bugs regarding the calculation of hw-pointer. i hope now this choppy sounds fixed. could you try to grab via82xx.c again from the same url? the error shown above is perhaps because the applications tried to set up the different sample rates at the same time. since the sample rate is configured on ac97 codec, the sample rate must be identical among all applications playing simultaneously. also, there is the secondary pcm device (hw:0,1) for the multi-channel playback, i.e. 4 and 6-channel playback. if your board has rear or center/lfe jacks, please give a try. i guess this is exclusive with the first device, but not sure. please check whether both twos can play at the same time. ah, one more thing. via8235 has the secondary capture device. it's assigned to hw:0,1. it would be helpful if you can check both hw:0,0 and hw:0,1 can capture properly, or whether only one of them works. ciao, Takashi ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/alsa-devel
