Summary:                    Mark M-Audio Revolution 7.1 (and probably other
ICE1724 cards) as the one with no capture in card matrix
Description: 
Takashi said the following regarding M-Audio Revolution 7.1 card:

in https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=1096 :

"
No, there is no capture control at all on this board, indeed. At least,
the hardware spec I got tells nothing about the capture controls. No gain
control, no input selection.
";

in https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=1164 :

"
Again, revo has no capture control. At least, the hardware spec I got
tells so.
";

in https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=1187 :

"
The input selection of line-in and mic is unknown thing - i.e. we have no
technical information about this feature at all. 
".

The quoted words above were said in response to my questions regarding
enabling capture.

>From the same quoted words I understand that at the moment there is no
known
way to enable capture.

Because of this I think it would be fair to mark the card as the one with
unsupported capture. Probably other ICE1724-based cards have the same
problem
too.

It would be a pity if other people buy the card and wouldn't be able to
use its
capture.

I have uploaded current snapshot of ALSA card matrix, it says:
"
 (4) Capture of sound not supported.
",
so I think this marker should be added to the card's description.

Thanks,
  Sergei.
