However, before going off on that, there's issues w/ messages in the app that should be fixed first -- e.g. using GNU 'gettext' utilities for all messages and labels, and then adding tooltips to the language catalog mechanism setup in: /usr/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/*.mo ... but beyond that, there's some more fundamental usability issues to fix first. I'd have a better advantage if I had the motivation to add tooltips or a language catalog, which sounds very tedious to try and do by myself. Of course, if someone else wants to work on it, I'd be happy to investigate and integrate any patches coming my way. Right now I'd want to focus on correcting existing problems and submitting that as a patch to ALSA. -- Niels http://nielsmayer.com PS: Just learned of another ICE1712-based interface -- that isn't recognized by Linux and that comes up with ADC/DAC's totally unrecognized by snd-ice1712 -- and that fortunately causes the entire "Analog Volume" panel to not show (as opposed to crashing), but otherwise the new envy24control does allow mixer control of it... http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/aug02/articles/edirolda2496.asp (looks nice the Roland/Edirol DA2496). Meanwhile, pictures show Fons using the http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/oct99/articles/terratec.htm . Keeping same A/D-D/A section, the follow-on offering http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/apr04/articles/terratecphase88.htm ........ leading me to conclude that of all the ice1712 interfaces, the Delta 1010 has the best converters, using AK5383 versus AK4524 (Delta 44/66/1010lt & all terratec's from dmx6fire to phase88).
