.SH MIXER PANEL
|
|
The CMedia chip provides some unique features that are set up
|
|
by the Mixer chip. Running ossxmix will display the CMI8738 mixer
|
|
panel.
|
|
|
|
Most of the sliders and buttons are self evident. However there
|
|
are some options that need explaining:
|
|
|
|
Dual Dac: Enabling this button sets the CMPCI device as two
|
|
separate output devices with /dev/dsp1 audio going to the front and
|
|
/dev/dsp0 going to the rear outputs. Separate audio streams can
|
|
be send to the device simultaneously.
|
|
|
|
Speaker Mode: The audio can be sent just to the front speakers or
|
|
it can be sent simultaneously to all speakers in the "Spread" mode.
|
|
|
|
AC3 passthrough only works on Models 037 and higher. This is because of
|
|
a hardware bug in the earlier models so check the model number
|
|
(ossinfo -a).
|
|
|
|
SPDIF:
|
|
|
|
.IP \(bu 3

|
|
|
|

|

|

|

|
|
get distorted audio.
