Hi, I'm newbie user and I'm currently getting into magic of asoundrc. But I have some problems and would like to ask some more or less beginner's questions:
I have two sound cards (expecting third Delta410 with 4 output channels) for whole house audio device. I have multiple apps producing sounds (speech synthesis, mp3ogg players, intercom feature between cards, voip apps...). I'd like to have as general as possible "black box" dealing with multiple sources and multiple outputs. I'd like to change parameters/connections in this black box dynamically (as situation requests - like incoming voip call, intercom from one card to another, interruption of music playing on speech announcements....). I'd like to start with Alsa and see what I can do on this level (will be happy on any info or advice for higher levels -Jack, Ecasound...): - I'd like to have two pcm dmix devices that will output toeach sound card and accept streams from more sources (alsaplayer, aplay, ...). I've done this with setting dmix as default for both cards, but it one is working and another is just silent.... - I'd like to have possibly separate pcm device, from where I could accept multiple streams and output them to both cards simultaenously (for speech announcements - if I get it right it seems not suitable for music cause of time drift on longer intervals - is this true ?) - I'd like to have possibility to route (cross) audio streams ob both cards (so they are able to "speak" to each other). How to do this in Alsa and can it be done dynamically ? Thanks in advance, Robert. ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
