Okay, I have a custom 2.6.23.8 kernel with sound enabled, but alsa disabled (see below). I have build all of alsa from source using aabuild And still I get (the same) errors. Any hints? How can I tell if the firmware got installed? Does this card need firmware? I see fw files.

How do I get ALSA to pass an ac3 file through to my receiver? I want the receiver to decode it, not my PC. Thanks JLM Jeremy Mordkoff Zazzle Technologies, Inc. 1 Monarch Drive, suite 200 Littleton, MA 01460 978-467-1395 x233

Re: [Alsa-user] Distortion via SPDIF

2007-12-19 Thread Jeremy Mordkoff
Interestingly, when I use mplayer to decode my DTS test file and play via SPDIF, it comes out distorted. If I tell mplayer to use DTS passthrough on the same file, it sounds perfect. What is mplayer transcoding/decoding the audio to? Is it still trying to use the HW decoder to play a file that

I haven't reset/resync'd the receiver at all, but when I switch to decoded audio the receiver displays 'PCM' instead of 'DTS', so it is detecting the change. I would not be surprised if 'DTS' means AC3 and 'PCM' means anything else (isn't PCM headerless?). Is mplayer transcoding to PCM?
