After some problems configuring jackd, I achieved making use of this card in the analog world, featuring 5ms of latency and superb audio quality. However, I tried to connect the optical output to the optical input on my minidisc and I am not being able to record anything. While listening to music using analog out, there's laser in the optical connector of the card. If I plug the cable there's laser in the other side of the cable. When plugged into the minidisc it says "NO SIGNAL". I read about lowering the mixer level to 0 in order to enable the S/PDIF out but that wasn't succesful here. Jack's running like this: $ jackd -R -dalsa -dhw:1 -r96000 -p256 -n2 I assumed that the same sound output was being forwarded to both the analog output and the optical output as S/PDIF, but I might be wrong. Any pointers welcome, thanks in advance. Cordially, Ismael -- Ismael Valladolid Torres "Il est vain de pleurer sur l'esprit, il suffit de travailler pour lui."
