hdsp update

hdsp update

[Thomas Charbonnel]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 604 bytes --]

Hi,

The attach patch fixes problems with speed modes for H9632 cards (many
thanks to Pentti Ala-Vannesluoma for testing the driver and helping
finding bugs), and the AutoSync mode issue (for all cards) reported by
Anders Torger at the end of september.
A new version of hdspmixer is also available here :
http://www.undata.org/~thomas/
It is mostly a bugfix release for H9632 users.
There is also a new version of hdspconf, but it only adds a .desktop
file and a nice icon (to bring it to par with the new hdspmixer), so
Takashi, feel free not to commit this one if you don't have much time :)

Thomas

ok, now they are on cvs.
i modified the configure to add --with-desktop-dir and
--with-pixmap-dir options, so that they can be specified separately.
also, the --with-soundbase option works properly now.

there were several compile warnings in hdspmixer, namely, non-used
static variables defined in some header files for label, etc.
i added ifdef for each of them to shut up the warnings.

still there is a warning which must be fixed.
HDSPMixerCard::getAutosyncSpeed() returns no value if external_rate =
6.  i assume it's 0 since the minus value will result in the error at
starting.  please let me know the correct value it should be.

I updated hdspmixer and hdspconf to fix all these problems :
http://www.undata.org/~thomas/
I just checked cvs to send you a clean patch instead, but the latest 
changes were not in there yet. Sorry for the extra workload this gives you.

Thanks,
Thomas

Thanks !
While we're at we should shut up the warnings in hdsploader too. Trivial 
diff attached.

hdsp9632 mixer fix + gcc 2.9x compile fix

Hi,

The attached patch fixes matrix mixer and metering problems spotted by 
Pentti Ala-Vannesluoma for H9632 cards and gcc 2.9x compile errors

Re: hdsp update

[Benouille]

Hi list, hi thomas,

A big thank you for all your great job on the rme hdsp.
I've installed the alsa cvs dated from the november 5th on 2 pc:
one with a hdsp multiface, one with a hdsp 9652.

Since this update, I can't access anymore the level of the channels with
amixer, and alsamixer reponds 'no mixer element found' on both system.
Is it a normal behaviour?

Then, when I boot, the hdsp multiface is still locked and I need to call
'hdsploader' about 3 or 5 times (I have the 'post-install snd-hdsp
/usr/local/bin/hdsploader' in modules.conf)
then, I have to reboot, and run hdspmixer to unmute the channels.
I woul like to know if there is a way to start the system with the card
properly running and all channels unmuted.
Maybe you could show us your modules.conf?

Thanks again,

Benoit

It is. I removed those simple mixer controls because I could find no 
proper way to deal with them while changing speed mode.
Anyway, anything you could do with those you can do either with 
hdspmixer or amixer in console mode, using the 'Mixer' ctl.

The amixer syntax is as follows :

amixer -c X cset numid=5 in,out,level

Where:
X is your alsa card number
0  <= in  < 26  : physical inputs
26 <= in  < 52  : playbacks (software outputs)
0  <= out < 26  : physical outputs
26 <= out <= 27 : line outs (phones), if any
0  <= level < 65536 : gain (65535 = +6dB, 32768 = 0dB)

(H9632 users should read :
0  <= in  < 16 : physical inputs
16 <= in  < 32 : playbacks (softwre outputs)
0  <= out < 16 : physical outputs
)

Here's an example :
amixer cset numid=5 26,0,32768
amixer cset numid=5 27,1,32768
This routes software outputs 1/2 (playback_1 and playback_2 in jack) to 
physical outputs 1/2 with a 0dB gain.
It is the same as formerly setting the level to 50% in the first 2 
alsamixer strips.

Below is a small script that does the same as the first hdspmixer preset 
(for non-h9632 cards, and assumes the hdsp card is the default one) :

#! /bin/bash

for out_left in $(seq 0 2 25);
do
let out_right=$out_left+1
let in_left=$out_left+26
let in_right=$out_right+26
amixer cset numid=5 $in_left,$out_left,32768
amixer cset numid=5 $in_left,26,32768
amixer cset numid=5 $in_right,$out_right,32768
amixer cset numid=5 $in_right,27,32768;
done;

I know this problem, but didn't find a solution yet. For some reason the 
specified wait time isn't always respected, so even if the firmware has 
been correctly uploaded ('host' light turns off on the io box), the 
function returns too early with an error, and the initialization process 
in stopped (the alsa pcm and midi devices are not created). Running 
hdsploader a second time usually fixes this.

I have nothing special in my modules.conf, I usually run hdsploader by 
hand. You may use the above script to set the levels up.
