Re: [LAD] supporting a dedicated DSP chip with ALSA

Ok I have taken the advise to use gstreamer when working with encoded streams (I read a bit and understood it fits my case better) I still left with offloading the PCM stream - this is a mandatory request from me to do it under ALSA. I have looked at LADSPA interface and saw there are for port types: #define LADSPA_IS_PORT_INPUT(x) ((x) & LADSPA_PORT_INPUT) #define LADSPA_IS_PORT_OUTPUT(x) ((x) & LADSPA_PORT_OUTPUT) #define LADSPA_IS_PORT_CONTROL(x) ((x) & LADSPA_PORT_CONTROL) #define LADSPA_IS_PORT_AUDIO(x) ((x) & LADSPA_PORT_AUDIO) If I declare my plugin as control only will I get all the information such as rate, format, etc... like a driver and will the frames will be passed to the driver directly?
