is your card this? http://www.berkeleyaudiodesign.com/alpha-usb/ In that case is a USB to S/PDIF interface and in his specifications I read is 24 bit word lenght capable. Problem is not the DAC but the lack of Linux (alsa) support for your device. You could try to open it using 24_3 format, maybe you are lucky, but better search the web (or asking support) for someone that already found the correct driver to use, if any. ____________________________________________________________ SB+, Klimo Merlino + Kent Gold, Monitor Audio Studio 20 Gold SE+, Klimo reference and DIS Interconnect. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ marcoc1712's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=34842 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97046 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
