<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi, I am using a sound card that has SPDIF optical
inputs as well as outputs (CMI8738-MC6) - wondering if mythbackend can capture
from the SPDIF input rather than the line in? I currently use v4l drivers for a
cheapo tuner card - /dev/video and /dev/dsp for video and stereo sound
respectively. I'm currently capturing from a digital terminal (DCT2524)
which has optical SPDIF out - I'd love to get 5.1 from some of the movies
coming through...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is my understanding that /dev/dsp only
interfaces analog input from ALSA? My digital input is on hw:0,2 - although
specifying this for sound input when setting up the capture card with
mythtv-setup led to an error - so did ALSA:spdif - does the mythbackend support
capturing sound with ALSA?</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any thoughts are
appreciated...</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
