Summary: Audiotrak Prodigy 7.1LT is still unusable, only H.P.
chanel work and sound is quick...
Description:
Im very glad that was added support for Prodigy, but there is still only
two channel working (7,8), the others are silent (tryed all volume
settings).
The sound from 7,8 chanel is good in case of quality, but is faster than
it should be (turn off Multi Track Rate Locking didnt do anything).
I've tryed mpalyer and XMMS, both the same.
I've compiled form CVS and keep it as it was (patched 13.1.2006 to support
Prodigy 7.1LT)

I found how to increase front channel volume to normal level.

Use prodigytest by ungod (found in #1090), "# ./prodigytest 8 10 9 0"
then, you can get acceptable volume level...

maybe driver don't initialize soundcard correctly...

I made a small patch.

eeprom data returned to original prodigy's,
and using GPIO 5 to switch hp amp.

spdif optical output is works,
(i don't know it works correctly, but there's a light from optical jack :)
)
and external amp. setting is works, too.

when turn on ext.amp, 7,8 channel works as hp channel
turn it off, 7,8 channel may work as sb channel...
(not tested... does anyone use surround system? plz test it)

after applying this patch, i feel sound quality is a little poor than
before...
:(
