Re: [RFC] DMAsound 2.4.0-tx => 2.2.17 back-port.

Hi Henry,

However, on the Pismo it looks like that in additional to the LE
modes not being set, as previously discussed, the 8bit mode and rate
parms are also not getting set in the Screamer. The RAW_AFMT_S8_S_44K
sample sounds like Alvin and the Chipmonks and the lower rate samples
are just high-speed jibberish. Here's the stest ouput for a couple:

The rate, mode and so is all done in software by the dmasound driver.  The
only hardware assists are: different sample rates (where supported) and
LE/BE swapping.

Oops, my stest instructions were not good enough - you need to tell stest
what the format of the file is:  **It does not look at *any* header
information**

./stest with no params will give you all the options.

 [henry@osprey stest]$ ./stest -f AFMT_S16_LE_S_44K.wav

./stest -b16 -s -B -r 44100 -f  AFMT_S16_LE_S_44K.wav

(IIRC) would be right here...

and so on...

Sorry, I'll update the web page to point this out.

ciao,
Iain
