 Posted: Mon Oct 24, 2005 8:04 pm Post subject: SN25P digital out. Any clue how to get working? [SOLVED] |
 |
|
After a quick googlewhack, it looks as though someone's figured out how to make basic sound for the SN25P work under alsa. Won't repeat details here, just follow the link if interested: http://www.nakack.net/2005/03/31/via-envy24ptht-sound-chip/
This gets basic sound up and running, but doesn't enable the digital out capabilities on the FN25 motherboard. Any alsa/hardware gurus out there got a clue as to what extra info is needed to turn the digital out on?
Any program I can run to poke at registers or whatnot to see if I can make them work? Tried filing a bug at bugtrack.alsa.org, but the website keeps dissing me, saying connection refused. So thought I'd give a wag here and see if anyone had any ideas.
Cheers,
-A
[edit] have not tried the ac97/5.1 passthru yet.

|
|
Got some quick feedback from Takashi Iwai, one of the lead ALSA developers.
So I've gotten sound to come out from the COAX and optical out now.
Having a problem with "stuttering" or beating when I try I play mp3's through Rhythmbox with a gstreamer backend. Will increasing the buffer size or period help out here? Time to break out the alsa docs I guess.
Here's the quick hack:
From Takashi:
As an experiment, try to set 0x40 to k8x800_eeprom[3] in
vt1720_mobo.c (currently 0x00).
My tweak on his hack:
This didn't work for me, but looking at the vt1720 docs it needs the lsb enabled for spdif to work at all so I changed k8x800_eeprom[3] to 0x41, and voila! I got sound from spdif.
Hope someone else finds this useful. |

BTW,
you will have to recompile the kernel and do a make modules_install to get this fix working.
but on the plus side, no need to reboot. just /etc/init.d/alsasound restart |

Seems the stuttering was not really a hardware problem. Downgrading the gst-plugin-alsa to version 0.8.8 fixed it. Listening to music through rhythmbox piped thru optical out right now.  |

Hey,
This is good news 
Just stumbled over your post.
Been waiting for this news since May and have already given up.
Have news from the Alsa guys?
Any chance this hack will be in alsa some time soon?
It's just annoying hacking the sources each time you try a new kernel version 
Thanks, Thanks and Thanks again
Will try this as soon as I get home. I'm sick of all the noise coming out of my amplifier (10 meters of basically unshielded audio cable )

In the Changelog it says there is support for SPDIF on SN25P, but I installed alsa-driver-1.0.10 and there is no spdif device in alsamixer and no sound coming out of my receiver 
Know a solution for this? |

I haven't checked to see if the patch made into the next alsa rev. Takashi was committing it so if now this one then the next for sure
Here is the patch Takashi sent me

I also wanted to route sound to the headphones simultaneously. So he sent me this other patch as well, which I haven't tried yet. He said it could be flakey, so I've been holding off.

Thanks, will hack my way ASAP 
@Cintra
Have more silent boxes at work (even with dual core cpus), but it is not as loud as a cheap pentium 4 box
But with 2 250 GB Maxtor HDDs and a passively cooled NVIDIA 6600 GT there is quite a little warmth to get out of the box.
And I would never take the boxes at work under one arm and the display under the other arm to go elsewhere  |

I changed to vt1720_mobo.c to
| Code: | | 0x41, /* SPDIF: - */ |
recompiled & rebooted
the optical out still does not light up, and i didn't see any changes in alsamixer.
you said spdif is working - is that both the coax and optical? |

I also noticed that the inputs are not 'labeled' correctly:
'Sur' jack - the lower left of the 4 out on the back - is controlled by 'headphone'; 'master' as no effect on it.
'L/R' jack - upper right - is effected by master, nothing else.
the front headphone jack is effected by 'master', nothing else.
plugging headphones into the front turns off the 'L/R' jack.
Anyone else have this mixed-up mapping?
Anyone have optical-out working? |

I have alsa-driver-1.0.10 and spdif works smoothly. No hacking necessary any more!
You need to use an .asoundrc you can get at the alsa homepage in the commentaries for the ice1724 chipset driver to get spdif working. This one will route any sound through the spdif. |

I tried what I found at http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=AudioTrak&card=Prodigy+7.1.&chip=Envy24HT&module=ice1724

It lights-up pretty early in the WindowsXP boot.

When optical is on, it lights up the port (with no cable plugged in) enough to see that it is on.
Anyone else have working optical?
When I plug the coax digital into my amp, it says 'Din Unlock' - meaning its got no signal.
Your coax digital out works, right? Did my config files look like yours? |

optical out is now working!
in alsamixer it is controlled by:
IEC958 [PCM Out] (left channel?)
IEC958 Output [Not Muted]
IEC958 1 [PCM Out] (right channel?)
I've done many things, so not sure which one fixed it - multiple reinstalls of different version of alsa-driver.
Problems now:
Nothing(!) controls the volume of digital out - the windows driver had a SPDIF volume control - by no mute for some reason.
No other output at all.

|
|
Thought this was gone, but it seems that the alsa-1.0.11-rc3 and gstreamer-0.11 combo has once again brought my SN25P to audio hell.
I get stuttering whenever I try to play anything through an alsa/gstreamer combo. gstreamer-properties, totem, rhythmbox, quodlibet. Stuttering all around. Funny thing is I can through bmpx just fine, although then software volume control does not work.
I have played with my .asoundrc for another hour or so to no avail. I don't even know where to begin to collect info for a bug report.
Anywho, here is my .asoundrc.
| Code: |
pcm.ice1724 {
type hw
card 0
device 1
}
pcm.ossmix {
type dmix
ipc_key 1024 # must be unique!
ipc_perm 0660 # sound for everybody (at least in your group)
slave {
#pcm "hw:0,1" # you cannot use a "plug" device here, darn.
pcm {
type hw
card 0
device 2
}
period_time 0
period_size 1024 # must be power of 2
buffer_size 8192 # dito. It
format "S32_LE"
#periods 128 # dito.
#rate 8000 # with rate 8000 you *will* hear,
# if ossmix is used :)
}
# bindings are cool. This says, that only the first
# two channels are to be used by dmix, which is enough for
# (most) oss apps and also lets multichannel chios work
# much faster:
bindings {
0 0 # from 0 => to 0
1 1 # from 1 => to 1
}
}
pcm.ossin{
type dsnoop
ipc_key 5150
slave.pcm "ice1724"
}
#pcm.dsp0 pcm.default
pcm.dsp0 {
type plug
slave.pcm "ossmix" # use our new PCM here
#slave.pcm "output"
#slave.pcm "hw:0,1"
}
pcm.ossduplex {
type asym
playback.pcm "ossmix"
capture.pcm "ossin"
}
# mixer0 like above
ctl.mixer0 {
type hw
card 0
#device 1
}
pcm.output {
type dmix
ipc_key 1234
ipc_perm 0660
slave {
#pcm "ice1724"
pcm {
type hw
card 0
device 1
}
#period_time 0
period_size 1024
buffer_size 8192 # buffer size < 6653, but pow(x, 2)
#period_size 2048
#buffer_size 16384 # buffer size < 6653, but pow(x, 2)
# rate 44100 # we want to play CDs only
format S32_LE
}
}
# Allow reading from the default device.
# Also known as record or capture.
pcm.input {
type dsnoop
ipc_key 2048
slave.pcm "ice1724"
}
## Possible artsd full duplex fix:
# slave {
# period_time 0
# period_size 1024
# buffer_size 8192
# }
# This is what we want as our default device
# a fully duplex (read/write) audio device.
pcm.duplex {
type asym
playback.pcm "output"
capture.pcm "input"
}
pcm.!default {
type plug
#slave.pcm "spdif"
#slave.pcm "output"
slave.pcm "duplex"
#slave.pcm "acopy"
}
pcm.doom3 {
type plug
slave.pcm "spdif"
#slave.pcm "acopy"
}
#pcm.acopy {
# type copy
# slave
# {pcm "hw0:0"
# }
#}
ctl.ice1724 {
type hw
card 0
}

Crossing my fingers, a future update will finally put this to bed once and for all. |

I have got my SPDIF out working at last. But I cant get any 5.1 sounds working, only stereo. My VLC quits when trying to watch a ac3 coded movie. In xine, MPlayer I cant get any other sound but stereo. in aplay it says that the SPDIF is already in use and I cant control the volume at all in the softwares. I use the .asoundrc file that I found in the comments for vt1724.
Anyone that got 5.1 from SPDIF working at all with this soundcard? |
