Comment(by yelo3):
Thanks for your explanations[[BR]]
1) I mainly asked for the name to be shown, just because whenever a user
has a problem with his card, he'll be able to know his card model when
experts ask for it, without having to execute some strange commands on the
terminal[[BR]]
You could add the model name in a tooltip or refactoring the treeview
model. For example:
{{{
Internal Audio (Intel HDA STAC9XX)
1 Input/1 Output
Analog Stereo Duplex
}}}
Or
{{{
Internal Audio
Intel HDA STAC9XX
1 Input/1 Output (Analog Stereo Duplex)
}}}
So you don't change the card name, but add only the model in the Hardware
tab. This will help users with problems.

2) I thought that Internal meant inside the computer (internal vs
external). In this case "Internal" should be renamed to "Integrated"[[BR]]
[[BR]]
3) I'm not asking to show the difference between front or rear mic. Just
the difference between "internal microphone" and "external microphone
plug". Is it possible to detect this?[[BR]]
[[BR]]
3.1) If you can correctly distinguish the speakers connector, why don't
you just use "analog speakers/headphones" instead of "analog output"?
Users will better understead.[[BR]]
[[BR]]
3.2) Is the word "alalog" really necessary in the output connectors? I
know it's analog because I selected "analog duplex" in the hardware
tab[[BR]]

Thanks for your support.
