Even then I think it will only work at 44.1kHz but that's all I needed. Can anyone confirm (or otherwise) that the ALSA drivers that come with Debian 3.0 will support SP/DIF input on the DiO 2448? The 2496 seems to be a better card generally - despite the only apparent difference of having a higher sampling rate, in fact it has a completely different chip and better software support for more platforms. -- Anahata anahata(a)treewind.co.uk -+- http://www.treewind.co.uk Home: 01638 720444 Mob: 07976 263827

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Thank you for answering for the answers to the question I posted long ago. I had no chance to connect since Nov. 25, which was quite an experience BTW. - - Burkhard Referred post: - ------------------------------------------- Hi all,         I am considering to buy a soundcard for around 100$ and there is an offer for a SB Audigy. Any recommendations? I read that the driver on Sourceforge is still experimental. Did anyone experience problems using that driver? What should I know or consider? Thanks a lot, - - Burkhard On Fri, Nov 22, 2002 at 12:39:03PM +0100, Burkhard Woelfel wrote: Creative Labs are slimy bastards: 1) They made the Live, claimed SPDIF digital I/O.  Turns out the card resamples everything to 48kHz/16-bit regardless of what you tell it to do. 2) They make the Audigy, claimed digital I/O and 24/96 operation.   Oops, turns out it works just like an SBLive... You'd be much better off saving for a low-end ymf-based card. - -- Ross Vandegrift ross(a)willow.seitz.com On Friday 22 November 2002 18:12, you wrote: - -- no html mail please, thank you. pub key at blackhole.pca.dfn.de 899B AFD7 14E9 D595 EA00 BE8B A348 851C 0F62 E91D
