Are you still using ALSA:spdif? That will not work. spdif is an alias that sends the stream directly to the digital output (on your card, hw:0,4)--which is expecting 48000Hz PCM (for PCM, that is--AC3 would also work, but you won't get that from NTSC broadcasts). You'll need to change it to ALSA:mixed-digital or ALSA:digital or uncomment the appropriate lines of the .asoundrc to set your default output and use ALSA:default. Note that if using OSS emulation, you'll need to set the default output appropriately (meaning you might as well set it).

No, I also did this:

pcm.!default {
 type plug
 slave.pcm "dmix-digital"
}

... and set ALSA:default.


GF2 would probably have the same problems. It's probably because of using the wrong GL libraries (i.e. the ones in X instead of nVidia's), but that's a whole different thread... :)

I see that in the post from Howard Cokl.  I will give that a try.

I wouldn't necessarily say that's true. Audio processing tends to require little effort from modern CPU's. Once you configure yours correctly, it should work fine.

I'll try to get this one working, but if not, I can borrow a SB card, I think, to try out.


Don't know about the Hercules. The only hardware ones I have are SB cards with the Emu10K1, but I haven't bought a discrete sound card in 6 years, so...

I haven't either, since my Turtle Beach Montego II (and it was surplus). Onboard has worked well for everything I have tried until now.


Thanks again for the pointers.

Jeff.
