Hi,
I'm trying to emulate 5.1 for mp3, 2.0 videos, etc.
I'm using a .asoundrc file. It works but I only can play a sound at the
same time: I can hear music, but, while I'm doing this, I can't hear a
video.
I have been looking for a solution and I think that the problem is in
*dmix*. I don't know how to modify the asoundrc file, any chnage make
Amarok crash!
This is my sound card:
(hwinfo --sound)
28: PCI 507.0: 0401 Multimedia audio controller
[Created at pci.301]
UDI: /org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pci_1102_7
Unique ID: mO1u.WCfr2+peI1A
Parent ID: WL76.vuIf6LvchL4
SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:09.0/0000:05:07.0
SysFS BusID: 0000:05:07.0
Hardware Class: sound
Model: "Creative SB Audigy LS"
Vendor: pci 0x1102 "Creative Labs"
Device: pci 0x0007 "SB Audigy LS"
SubVendor: pci 0x1102 "Creative Labs"
SubDevice: pci 0x100a
Driver: "CA0106"
Driver Modules: "snd_ca0106"
I/O Ports: 0xa000-0xafff (rw)
IRQ: 17 (54561 events)
Module Alias: "pci:v00001102d00000007sv00001102sd0000100Abc04sc01i00"
Driver Info #0:Driver Status: snd_ca0106 is active
Driver Activation Cmd: "modprobe snd_ca0106"
Config Status: cfg=no, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown
Attached to: #18 (PCI bridge)
And this is my .asoundrc file:
################################################## #######
#This is the standard setting (see: "!default")
#This profile, the default loaded, upmixes stereo sound to 5.1.
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm "surround51"
slave.channels 6
route_policy duplicate
}
################################################## ######
#This is the normal spdif output profile (optical, toslink).
pcm.!spdif {
type plug
slave.pcm "hw:0,1"
}
################################################## #####
#This is what one could call the "factory default setting", in other
words, it only plays the actual channels. so if you fx want to watch
a 5.1 movie, on the analog output, this is the option you want.
pcm.analog {
type plug
slave analog_slave;
}
pcm_slave.analog_slave {
pcm surround51;
format S32_LE;
}
ALSA gives poor information about how to configure this sound card...
¿Any one has a asoundrc that works fine?
Sorry for my bad english :-P
