[alsa-devel] Query about alsa ucm (use case manager) config files

[Ashish Chavan]

Hi,
   I am just curious to know if there is any centralized repository for
alsa use case manager configuration files. I tried searching and could
only find alsa-ucm-conf.git repo at alsa project git server, which is
actually an empty repo!

How people share/reuse ucm configuration files for a specific codec?
In near future, I will be developing few ucm configuration files for
some codecs and wish to share them with rest of the world. I think even
though ucm configs are board/machine specific, it makes sense to share
them. Is there any other, more visible place to put these config files
than board specific distributions?

This is the correct place, but I've been busy with other stuff to push our configs upstream to date (will do so today now). The eventual contents of this repo are intended to be copied into :-

/usr/share/alsa/ucm (or where ever alsa is installed on your distro)

However, I've not had a chance to push the UCM Nexus and Pandaboard files from Arun to this repo yet due to some other ongoing work.

FYI, Arun's current UCM configs are here :-

Interesting idea to create separate shareable codec UCM configuration. We currently have no way to "include" a shareable codec specific configuration into a machine specific configuration but it would probably not be too hard to add to the parser.
