Ah, ok. This solution makes even more sense, since it is more generally
useful. Especially for [broken] alsa apps that don't let you specify
seperate pcm's for playback/capture..
I think of this plugin as making a full duplex pcm out of two half
duplex pcm. So why not call the plugin "duplexer"?
Flo
P.S.: One question that comes up though: What happens when you specify a
full duplex device as one of the two pcm's? Will there be an error msg?
Or maybe some of the "multi" functionality could be used...
