What is the correct syntax for alsa?
The /dev/dsp* devices are for the old (obsolete) OSS interface. As far as i know, ffmpeg does not support ALSA directly, so you have to use the OSS emulation features provided (modules snd-pcm-oss and snd-mixer-oss), and specify the correct device for the -ad option for ffmpeg. > > Dave > ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
