Re: [Alsa-user] CMI8788.
Works great! One typo I had to find and fix though.
pcm_slave eightchannels should be pcm_slave.eightchannels
Notice the extra '.'
Thanks again!

Sorry, didn't test them.
Try this:
pcm_slave eightchannels {
pcm hw:0,0# or hw:1,0 for the second card
channels 8
}
pcm.stereo1 {
type plug
slave.pcm {
type dshare
ipc_key 8788
slave eightchannels
bindings [ 0 1 ]
}
}
pcm.stereo2 {
type plug
slave.pcm {
type dshare
ipc_key 8788
slave eightchannels
bindings [ 2 3 ]
}
}
pcm.stereo3 {
type plug
slave.pcm {
type dshare
ipc_key 8788
slave eightchannels
bindings [ 4 5 ]
}
}
pcm.stereo4 {
type plug
slave.pcm {
type dshare
ipc_key 8788
slave eightchannels
bindings [ 6 7 ]
}
}

I have a Bluegears b-Enspirer 7.1 Sound Card CMI8788 that I am looking

I would like to seperate out the stereo outs to multiple outputs, so I
can use it as a backend for my house with zones.
The hardware cannot control the four analog outputs independently, but
it's possible to use plugins for ALSA-aware applications.
Put the following into your ~/.asoundrc or /etc/asound.conf:
pcm_slave eightchannels {
pcm hw:0,0# or hw:1,0 for the second card
channels 8
}
pcm.stereo1 {
type plug
slave.pcm {
type dshare
slave eightchannels
}
bindings [ 0 1 ]

pcm.stereo2 {
type plug
slave.pcm { type dshare slave eightchannels }
bindings [ 2 3 ]
}
pcm.stereo3 {
type plug
slave.pcm { type dshare slave eightchannels }
bindings [ 4 5 ]
}
pcm.stereo4 {
type plug
slave.pcm { type dshare slave eightchannels }
bindings [ 6 7 ]
}
then use device names stereo1 to stereo4 instead of default or
hw:x.
I also would like to leave the Digital out as an 7.1 to work with my
stereo for Watching movies.
The SPDIF output is independent; it mirrors the front analog output only
when the spdif device is not being used.

What version are they for? 17? 18?
