I just obtained the Creative Audigy 2 NX USB today, and while it looks promising when I connected it (uaudio finds it, and recognizes what it can do), it doesn't quite seem to be able to play back yet. I haven't tried -- I just saw the errors below, and `mixer' reports it's only mixer-aware. I bought this because I think I read on the NetBSD list that one developer had no problems with it. This is a 16/24-bit card, capable of 96kHz sample, and 5.1 audio. I think that its capabilities are fooling the FreeBSD code -- when I search the NetBSD code for this, I can't find this check. play channel supported format list invalid pcm1: chn_init(pcm1:play:0) failed: err = 19 pcm1: pcm_chn_create(ua_chan, 1, 0xc19f4a80) failed record channel supported format list invalid pcm1: chn_init(pcm1:record:0) failed: err = 19 pcm1: pcm_chn_create(ua_chan, -1, 0xc19f4a80) failed This is right after uaudio_query_formats. I need to add debugging to see what is being found, but from reading the uaudio_query_formats() code in uaudio.c (the source which I have, based on the PRs and 4.x), it may have problems with the capabilities of the card. There is quite a bit in my dmesg that I need to look at, later. I'll also reboot into NetBSD and verify its operation there, as well as add hacks to try to make it work sometime soon... > I might plug my headphone in a microphone hole yesterday. > I'm ashamed for making a big mistake. Do not be ashamed, we all make mistakes like this :-) Oh, this Audigy USB card is the one I mentioned in my last mail that I would report if it worked or not... thanks barry bouwsma
