Mitzel" Sender: owner-multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk hi all, I've been using FreeBSD-2.1-Release with GUS MAX and vat-4.0b2 a bit. my problem is that I have no control over the speaker volume or mic gain. I've gotten around it to this point by using headphones that have a volume control, and never using a microphone. I'd like to make this setup a bit more usable if possible. from the rah and mark tinguely web pages I've seen that vmix is supposed to handle this, but I'm having no luck. with vmix the only effect I can get with the mic is off or maximum distortion, and absolutely no effect on the speaker volume. and when I try to connect the vat -U to the /tmp/vmixsock then vat just locks up. I'd be quite happy with a correctly functioning half duplex setup, but am willing to try the GUS duplex drivers if that's my only hope. anyone have a suggestion on my vmix problems and connecting to vat? here's my system state: OS: FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE Config File: device gus0 at isa? port 0x230 irq 12 drq 1 flags 0x3 vector gusintr Bootup: gus0 at 0x230 irq 12 drq 1 flags 0x3 on isa gus0: gus0: /dev/sndstat: VoxWare Sound Driver:3.0-beta-950506 (Sun Feb 5 14:38:12 EST 1995 freebsd-hackers@freefall.cdrom.com) Config options: ffffffff Installed drivers: Type 4: Gravis Ultrasound Card config: Gravis Ultrasound at 0x230 irq 12 drq 1 Audio devices: 0: Gravis UltraSound 1: Gravis UltraSound - read only 2: GUS MAX (CS4231) Synth devices: 0: Gravis UltraSound MAX (512k) Midi devices: 0: Gravis UltraSound Midi Timers: 0: System Timer 1: OPL-3/GUS Timer Mixers: 0: Gravis Ultrasound 1: AD1848/CS4248/CS4231 /dev: lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 6 Dec 2 16:07 /dev/audio@ -> audio1 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 4 Dec 2 16:09 /dev/audio0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 20 Dec 2 15:37 /dev/audio1 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 36 May 24 1996 /dev/audio2 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 9 Dec 2 16:07 /dev/dsp@ -> /dev/dsp2 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 3 Dec 2 15:56 /dev/dsp0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 19 May 24 1996 /dev/dsp1 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 35 May 24 1996 /dev/dsp2 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 5 Dec 2 16:07 /dev/dspW@ -> dspW0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 5 May 24 1996 /dev/dspW0 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 21 May 24 1996 /dev/dspW1 crw-rw-rw- 1 root wheel 30, 37 May 24 1996 /dev/dspW2 thanks for any help! danny From owner-freebsd-multimedia Tue Dec 3 01:58:16 1996 Return-Path: owner-multimedia Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id BAA22095 for multimedia-outgoing; Tue, 3 Dec 1996 01:58:16 -0800 (PST) Received: from rah.star-gate.com (rah.star-gate.com [204.188.121.18]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id BAA22090 for ; Tue, 3 Dec 1996 01:58:12 -0800 (PST) Received: from rah.star-gate.com (localhost.star-gate.com [127.0.0.1]) by rah.star-gate.com (8.7.6/8.7.3) with ESMTP id BAA04457; Tue, 3 Dec 1996 01:58:02 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <199612030958.BAA04457@rah.star-gate.com> X-Mailer: exmh version 1.6.9 8/22/96 To: Charles Henrich cc: freebsd-multimedia@freebsd.org Subject: Re: CDI Streams?

I do know in my experience that at least one particular CDI movie (Live and Let Die) contained one big file that was an MPEG system-layer stream, which I was able to process using the usual mpeg tools under unix. It made for a good test file for playing with MPEG. What I did was mount the CD under W95 and copy the file over to a unix disk (that happened to be the most convenient setup for me), so the CD fs might not have been straight iso9660, but the data file was definitely straight MPEG system-layer. It also played very well using ATI's full screen software MPEG player for W95 - a bit jerky on a P120, but the sound was great, and the effect on a 20' monitor was good as long as you didn't sit too close.

I finally got the GUS to configure under DOS. IWINIT was having a heck of a time finding te card. Today I upgraded to the 2.0B2 drivers from gravi's web site. I had to change the 'mode=pnp' line in IW.INI to 'mode=legacy', and then it configured right up. So if you're having trouble getting your gus to detect under DOS and you're on a non-PnP machine (i have a P90 with Phoenix 4.03 bios and a SiS 54P motherboard), upgrade and try that change. Next is getting FreeBSd working. Can I apply guspnp6 to the 2.2-ALPHA, or do I have to go all the way to -current? reason is that if I have to go to current I'm going to buy a new disk... Thanks for info and hope this helps some of you out there.

Like I said that's encouraging that I'll give it a try again... but remember the looping seemed to vary from system to system. For Amancio it would never occur, for me it would happen consistently all the time. And the fact that you could only recover the audio device by rebooting your system made it not suitable for continued use with the MBONE tools... support to enable the vat sliders for volume and mike input control is still missing as well... multiple vats also offer problem and sound doesn't switch properly from one to another. -- Denis From owner-freebsd-multimedia Fri Dec 6 16:33:19 1996 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.4/8.8.4) id QAA20717 for multimedia-outgoing; Fri, 6 Dec 1996 16:33:19 -0800 (PST) Received: from INET-04-IMC.itg.microsoft.com (mail4.microsoft.com [131.107.3.29]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.4/8.8.4) with SMTP id QAA20711 for ; Fri, 6 Dec 1996 16:33:17 -0800 (PST) Received: by INET-04-IMC.itg.microsoft.com with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Server Internet Mail Connector Version 4.0.994.63) id <01BBE391.80692C80@INET-04-IMC.itg.microsoft.com>; Fri, 6 Dec 1996 16:21:14 -0800 Message-ID: From: Thomas Pfenning To: "'gwh@spiders.com'" , "'Denis DeLaRoca 825-4580'" , "'dwhite@RESNET.UOREGON.EDU'" Cc: "'multimedia@FreeBSD.ORG'" Subject: RE: GUS PRO: functional!

Guspnp6 does > indeed sound very good. Now that you mention it, once, but only once, I lost the audio device with my PAS-16 and the current sound driver: vat continued working but writes to /dev/audio were failing. I was able to recover only with a reboot. Amancio speculated that the problem may be in the dma handling routines. With vat in half-duplex mode there's a slight problem with sound samples overlapping very periodically -- only briefly, mind you. I it happens when the sound source is continuous and the playback buffer builds up... if vat is able to detect successfully the end of a talk spurt then the playback spurt is reset and no overlapping sound is heard. I am sure you can explain this better... -- Denis From owner-freebsd-multimedia Fri Dec 6 18:16:39 1996 Return-Path: Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.4/8.8.4) id SAA24665 for multimedia-outgoing; Fri, 6 Dec 1996 18:16:39 -0800 (PST) Received: from whizzo.transsys.com (whizzo.TransSys.COM [144.202.42.10]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.8.4/8.8.4) with ESMTP id SAA24660 for ; Fri, 6 Dec 1996 18:16:36 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost.transsys.com (localhost.transsys.com [127.0.0.1]) by whizzo.transsys.com (8.8.3/8.7.3) with SMTP id VAA09628; Fri, 6 Dec 1996 21:16:19 -0500 (EST) Message-Id: <199612070216.VAA09628@whizzo.transsys.com> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0alpha 12/3/96 To: Denis DeLaRoca 825-4580 (310) cc: dwhite@RESNET.UOREGON.EDU, multimedia@freebsd.org From: "Louis A.

The guspnp6 stuff seems to work better, but it's still dangerous to interrupt the process while a large write is going on. That is, if you do a "cat foo.au > /dev/audio" and kill the process with a ^C or kill signal from another process, you're almost guaranteed to be toast.

From what I can tell the hardest part is going to be to write a program to control the dma risc engine. Unlike traditional dma chipset dma instructions the 848 executes dma by running a dma program from the host's memory. At any rate, it looks like a nice video capture board and it is cheap.

Which one might you succeed in getting the mic and line controls working? That may be the deciding factor... :-) I'll plow my Gus PnP card and guspnp6 back into my system and take them for a drive.

It is not a big deal. The issue is that the AMD chipset does not fully emulate the CS4231 and that translates to that there is no separate control for mic and line input and the control mechanism is the gain line. What I intent to do is to change the driver with respect to mic and line level control is to redirect the mixing controls to igain. I may do this small change this weekend if I can find the time to do it. At any rate, vat, guspnp6 and vmix does provide all the funcationality that you need.

That may be the deciding factor... :-) The mixing controls for the AudioTrix Pro works due to that is talking to a real CS4231. Incidently, this CS4231 chipset is the same one used in the Sun Workstations and some SGI workstations. Amancio
