Fwd: [Alsa-user] Recording spdif/iec958 on ice1724 terratec aureon 7.1 space

[Ian Malone]

Okay, I don't have much choice but to try the devel list, having
tried the Fedora mailling lists and alsa-users.  I'm unable to
record from a toslink source as described below, it's possible
I've just missed some detail.

Fedora Core 5
Kernel: 2.6.16-1.2122_FC5
Alsa: alsa-lib-1.0.11-4.rc2
details follow:

Summary:
Recording from SPDIF input on ICE1724 device (Terratec 7.1
Space, but same chipset as the 5.1 Sky) records only silence.
Rebooting the same machine into windows recording works fine.
Recording source is a DAB radio, apparently at 32kHz (at least,
arecord tells me it was unable to select the requested rate
if I choose anything else).

Tried the commands:
$ arecord -D hwplug:0,1 -f cd test.wav
$ arecord -D hw:0,1 -f S32_LE -r 32000 test.wav
$ arecord -D plug:spdif -f cd test.wav

have tried -f dat instead of -f cd where applicable.

The equivalent hw:0,0 (analogue) successfully records from
line-in with a loopback cable.

I have checked alsamixer, and the IEC958 source has capture
enabled, as does line-in.  The alsa matrix claims tosio for
the 5.1, does that work?

Is "Optical" chosen for "IEC958 Capture Source"? 
Better to show the mixer status (e.g. /etc/asound.state) for further
diagnosis.

Well, this is /etc/asound.state, whether it corresponds to what
I'm actually using I don't know.

Optical is selected for the IEC958 capture source, I also tried
CD just to see if it made a difference.

Thanks for your time.

Run "alsactl store" to verify that asound.state matches the mixer

Have you tried unmuting "IEC958 Capture Switch"?

That's it!  Thanks very much.
I had to use alsactl restore to make the change though;
toggling the IEC958 capture source in alsamixer doesn't
seem to have any effect.
Anyway, working nicely now, thanks again.

"IEC958 capture switch" should exist independently from "IEC958
capture source".  There might some confliction in the mixer
abstraction.  Could you show the output of amixer?

OK, the problem is the confliction of "IEC958 Playback Route" and
"IEC958 Capture Switch".

We need to fix either mixer layer or rename it, e.g. from "Playback
Route" to "Playback Source".

The patch below (for alsa-lib) is a temporary workaround to add the
automatic toggle of "IEC958 Capture Switch" over iec958 (spdif) PCM.
This makes the spdif recording working even without the fix suggested
in the above.

Please try the patch, and once turn off "IEC958 Capture Switch"
manually (via alsactl store and restore), then record via "spdif" PCM,
such as
	% arecord -Dplug:spdif -fdat foo.wav

If it's confirmed to work, I'll commit to HG repo.


Thanks,

Takashi

I'll have a look at it this evening, but I haven't built alsa from source
before, so there might be some delay while I figure that out.
Would it be problematic if I worked against the FC5 source rpm
for this?

You can even patch files in /usr/share/alsa/cards manually with the
patch.  It's just a change of configuration files.

Works here (except that setting HW 1&2 to IEC958 will still only
send SPDIF in directly to the speakers if IEC958 Capture Switch
is turned on in asound.state, although I'm not sure whether
that's by design, but recording works).
