If you configure vlc to use jack it will probably use the wrong outputs (1 and 2) but you can change the connections manually using qjackctl. It's not a final solution but it allows you to test things. Ciao, -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia.

i worked with Ubuntu12.04 with Enlightenment and the packages from KXStudio before i made a clean install of KXSudio14.04 (with KDE). With 12.04 everything worked all right; i had Jack running with the same MAudio Delta 1010, and had a nice low latency. What i don't understand why things are so different with 14.04 on the same system. I was hoping that someone could help me in debugging this.

Looking at the Patchbay/Router in mudita24 (1.0.4) the last two columns are s/pdif out and on mine they are set to s/pdif out. The fist way to test, is to change this so that they are both set to H/W In 1 and put some audio into channel one (no jack needed for this test, but a good, high level yes) and see if you then get audio out from s/pdif. If you don't: - mudita sw bug - alsa sw bug - d1010 fw bug - d1010 internal hw problem. - d1010 Hardware settings mistake. Are the things that would make sense. The Hardware Settings tab in mudita has S/pdif Output settings. Try both Professional and Consumer settings. Make sure Data mode is Audio. In consumer set copy permitted and original. I am not sure what your amplifier needs as input... it may only look at Copyrighted/Original or some odd thing. I don't know if I can tell anything from scoping mine as my scope is plain analog no digital functions so it may be difficult to sync a zero DC signal. (I have a d66 with no word clock) SW/FW bugs are unlikely as I would expect others would have mentioned that already, there are a lot of d1010s around. (lots of delta series boxes in general) I would expect you are not the only person who has tried to use s/pdif out. -- Len Ovens www.ovenwerks.net

The good news, I had the time to test S/PDIF out today with one of my Envy24 cards, the bad news, I wasn't able to get S/PDIF out working. With a TerraTec EWX24/96 I tested Envy24 S/PDIF optical out -> Sony DTC-670 S/PDIF optical in With and without Sony DTC-670 S/PDIF optical out -> Envy24 S/PDIF optical in mhwe outL -> jkmeter in-1, playback_1, 3, 5, 7, 9 mhwe outR -> jkmeter in-2, playback_2, 4, 6, 8, 10 $ mudita24 -v -c1 $ envy24control -v -c1 Digital in works, analog out works, but I don't know what to do, to get digital out working. JFTR I don't know if the DAT recorder's optical S/PDIF in is ok. If it should be possible with Linux to set my RME HDSPe AIO ADAT IOs to become S/PDIF IOs (the manual says it's possible when using Windows), I could test if the Sony in is ok, or simply connect an Envy card to the RME card. Mudita version 1.1.0 envy24control version 0.6.0 $ uname -rm 3.16.1-1-ARCH x86_64

Lev, Ralf, thanks for your efforts to try to help here, much appreciated! Nice idea to make a connection with jack from a hardware input to the S/PDIF directly with a rythm and test it. I've set the mixer to the corresponding hardware input. I do see the meters going up and down and i do have the sync signal on my amp. But no sound. Even when the hardware playback is NOT connected, i have the analog sound on the digital mixer output. Can this indicate this an internal routing bug? And: Because the S/PDIF output works in Windows XP, i suspect that there is a software bug somewhere, perhaps alsa?? -- View this message in context: http://linux-audio.4202.n7.nabble.com/Delta1010-S-PDIF-out-has-sync-but-no-… Sent from the linux-audio-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
