Subject: advice for creating special ALSA driver or plugin
Date: Sun, 11 Apr 2021 12:01:51 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c1954dd5-fe9e-883e-6119-e7f3ae58745a@hacklava.net> (raw)

Hi ALSA developers.

I'm completely new to ALSA developing, so I'm being lazy and ask for 
advices.

I have a USB recording device for four 16bit/48Khz channels, "encoded" 
in a stereo 16bit/96Khz track; because it is a USB audio recording 
device, so no special recording software is required, but a (proprietary 
Windows) converting software is provided (that I can't use).

Output channels are alternated at the sample level: L: 1313131313, R: 
2424242424, etc...

So basically the driver/plugin would alternates between input samples of 
a stereo track to output 4 channels (at half the input sample rate).

Is there a code base I could study and adapt to start my simple project?

Thanks for your attention.

Marc
