[Alsa-devel] mtpav MIDI and MOTU PocketExpress

2002-03-07 Thread Jan P.
Michael && ALSAList: I am trying to get your MTPAV drivers to work with my MOTU PocketExpress on the parallel port. The short of it is, sending works, but receiving doesn't. I am on IRQ5. I tried IRQ7 but this causes sporadic hangs. I understand the drivers were written for the TimePiece, but if

ALSA has rather complete support of IEC958, compared to OSS. At least for hardware that can handle it. I also believe ALSA had multi-open before OSS did. -Dan -- [-] Omae no subete no kichi wa ore no mono da. [-] ___ Alsa-devel mailing list [EMAIL

ALSA's midi routing/scheduling functionalities are unique. Without this it would be impossible to use different midi applications which also interact via midi, sync or share the same hw interfaces. For OSS i'm pretty sure you had to write a kernel part first before you could start to code your m

As a programmer, alsa is just much easier to use. alsa provides a consistent api interface for all sound cards thanks to the alsa-lib. (shared user space code) So, if I write an app for my sound card, I can be pretty sure the app will work on all other sound cards. With OSS/Free, hardly any of th

Why is ALSA the better alternative? That's a question I've been asked quite a few times recently. Below is a reply I just wrote to ecasound-list. I'd be very interested in hearing your comments on this issue. Have I missed some important points? One thing that seems be causing a lot of confusion

Hi, On my beige G3, using the powermac driver, neither the oss mixer nor the alsa native mixer work at all. Sound output works, but it is not possible to enable play-through for the sound input, or to turn on the internal speaker while something is plugged into the output jack. This all works fin

Hello! For EWS64XL (at least for my rev 1.2) you should use cs4236. It worked for me a couple of weeks ago. In fact, you don't need to initialize a sam9407 device to use CoDec device with latest ALSA revision. Uros. BTW: I'm developing a driver for sam9407 device. I already can tal
