Hi Takashi,

Juli support required some changes to ice1724.c/ice1712.h. Since Juli 
uses different clock scheme than most other ice1712/24 cards, I had to 
move all clock-specific code to card-specific routines. Most of them are 
redefined in juli.c.

The driver is tested, only analog-in and digital-in monitors are not 
working. I have coded according to manufacturer's documentation, the 
same procedure is in OSS Juli driver. I described the issue in detail in 
the code, perhaps someone will do more research.

The card itself has no HW master volume control. It would have to be 
implemented as a virtual control manipulating internal values of PCM and 
monitor volume controls. I will take a look at it later. For now, 
perhaps we could rename the PCM Volume to Master Volume, as most people 
will not need the monitoring anyway. I will leave it to your decision.

Signed-off-by: Pavel Hofman <dustin@seznam.cz>

* moving all clock-specific code to card-specific routines
* support for ESI Juli
* to-be-researched - monitoring of analog/digital inputs
* missing - master volume control, will have to be implemented as 
virtual, no HW support.


Thanks,

Pavel.

Pavel;

 

I have been following this closely since I have the juli@ card and have been
having problems getting it to work at rates and bit depths other than
44.1/16  and 48/16 on the spdif output. I will be happy to provide a Juli@
card to support the work and keep this going. I’m working with a record
company that is about to start releasing audio at 176.4/24 and the current
playback options are very limited and expensive for that format. The Juli@
can open a lot of new options but it needs proper support. Let me know if
you need it.

Pavel:

I want to thank you for getting the Juli@ driver sorted out. Its all working
right and I can play the 176.4 KHz 24 bit files now properly. Along with
96K, 88.2K 48K and 44.1K.  I had to borrow an Apogee 192K mini-dac to test
the system. The inexpensive DAC I got off eBay from China was never tested
properly for high bit rate files and let me off track until I got a known
DAC to test with. 

The unique clocking scheme of the Juli@ card should give lower jitter and
better audio than the other solutions since the clock isn’t generated from a
PLL. It’s a relative bargain compared to a Hammerfall or a Lynx card. And
now with a good Linux driver very useable.
