Hello,
I'm using an usb mic which(according to it's producer should support up to
48kHz sampling rate). The problem is ALSA allows me to use only 16 kHz for
this device. I do not want to resample the data, I want to sample it at
48kHz in order to be able to record some high pitch sounds 18-20kHz.
I would want to try to do any modifications necessary in order to try
support 48kHz, but I'm not sure where to start.
Some information:
cat /proc/asound/modules
...
1 snd_usb_audio
arecord --list-devices
**** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices ****
....
card 1: CameraB409241 [USB Camera-B4.09.24.1], device 0: USB Audio [USB
Audio]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
when I try to use: arecord -v -D hw:1,0 -f S16_LE -c 4 -r 48000 gigi.wav
I get this:
Recording WAVE 'gigi.wav' : Signed 16 bit Little Endian, Rate 48000 Hz,
Channels 4
Warning: rate is not accurate (requested = 48000Hz, got = 16000Hz)
please, try the plug plugin

Its setup is:
stream : CAPTURE

format : S16_LE

rate : 16000
exact rate : 16000 (16000/1)

stop_threshold : 8000
silence_threshold: 0
silence_size : 0
boundary : 2097152000
appl_ptr : 0
hw_ptr : 0
Any sampling rate I would try higher or lower than 16kHz, I will always get
16000 kHz.
Some more information:

At the moment I'm looking inside ALSA's source code to try to see from
where this limitation of 16000kHz for my device appears, but I have to
admit that I'm kind of lost.
Any pointers on what direction should I go to try make my desired rate
supported would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you and best regards,
Gordon

The device is queried for its supported sample rates during probe using
class-specific commands. If it doesn't return all rates that are
actually supported, we need to add a quirk and override this list.
The list of known sample rates is included in
/proc/asound/card1/stream0. What does that show for you?

I've appended the output at the end of this mail.
Since the output is long, I've also put it on pastebin:

I mention that while trying to record using arecord I see in

177346 is different from the runtime rate 16000"
The current rate reported here varies for each call of arecord. Eg it can
be: 676371, 508390, 139882 etc. The values reported are too high to be
real.

The interface only reports this single sample rate. If the vendor claims
that there are in fact more, it would be good to know which ones.
Then we can add a quirk to parse_audio_format_rates_v1() in
sound/usb/format.c - that shouldn't be too hard.

Something like the patch below could help. Can you try this?

Hello Daniel,
Thank you very much for your help and sorry for the late answer. I was
without internet access for the last few days.
I have tried the patch that you sent me(with a minor modification:
fp->rate_max(instead of min) = 48000; ).
If I try to record using 48kHz and then playback, it will playback in "fast
speed", voices being recorded as "chipmunks".
Only at 16000Hz it records at "normal speed".
So it seems that the recording is still done in fact at 16kHz, even though
now the driver appears to support sampling rates between 16000-48000Hz.
Dmesg is also showing me this everytime I try to record using the
microphone(These messages appeared even without the driver modification):
[ 165.364728] ALSA clock.c:242 current rate 175902 is different from the
runtime rate 48000
[ 171.838509] ALSA clock.c:242 current rate 51816 is different from the
runtime rate 48000
[ 206.950822] ALSA clock.c:242 current rate 281039 is different from the
runtime rate 48000
[ 968.713856] ALSA clock.c:242 current rate 6096811 is different from the
runtime rate 48000
Once again, thank you very much for your support!
Best Regards,
Gordon

Hi Daniel and Gordon,
Sorry for posting on such an old thread. I have recently started using the
PlayStation Eye for audio processing and I have run into the same issue of
ALSA only allowing the device to capture at 16khz sampling rate when it
should be capable of 48khz. Your last post indicates that even with a
patch, the device only sampled at 16khz and just played the samples faster.
I am just wondering if either of you came up with a solution to this
problem? Was it ever possible to record at a 48khz?
Any help or information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jacobson.
