Where can I get the complete list of controls which an audio codec has to support. there is no such list. and lets get the terminology straightened out here before this goes any further. codec comes (in this context) from coder/decoder. that maps roughly to what is more properly referred to

My driver is almost complete and I'm working to make it acceptable for inclusion in alsa-driver. It drives 8 different cards and it raises some problems. The main file is echoaudio.c and is contains all the control interfaces of all cards. It registers only the controls a card has at runtime, so
