[linux-audio-user] Using Creative sb16 CSP(DSP) chip?

Hi, I've just switched my system to Kernel 2.6 and installed ALSA. I've perfectly configured everything... I've a Sound Blaster 16 with CSP (an ISA card ten or more years old!) that works very fine. I've modprobed snd-sb16 with the option that rise csp support. $ cat /proc/asound/card0/cspD1 Creative Signal Processor [v1.0] State: -x--- I do not know very well what a CSP, Creative Signal Processor, but I think, reading at ALSA sources, that it's a chip that speedups some compressions/decompressions using some audio codecs. I would like to know how can I actively use this gorgeous more-ten-years-old chip with some applications. Maybe, I'll save a cople of seconds when I transform a wav to mp3 (or ogg that's better!)? Thank you very much!, Pietro -- +------------------------------------------------+ | "Pietro" <p.alfa(a)email.it> | +------------------------------------------------+
