Hello. New user here. I purchased an Odroid C1+. I would like to use RuneAudio to put together a DSP crossover per this site: http://rtaylor.sites.tru.ca/2013/06/25/ ... are-howto/

I would need to use ecasound. Does RuneAudio support ecasound?

Hello All,

Thanks for the replies. I am using a newer external USB card that uses the CMedia CMI6620 chipset. The link is here:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00K1O ... ge_o05_s00

I currently have ArchLinux installed on my Odroid and it works pretty well. When I run aplay -L the card shows up with all its PCM options. I can get speaker test to work fine to locate the analog outputs just fine. I recognize that this particular C-Media chip is not listed in the ALSA matrix. But since I can see it all and get surround sound to work it seems like I should be able to figure it out. Alas, I am not skilled enough I fear.

I have been successful in getting it to playback in surround sound using the PCM surround51 per the website I mentioned in the initial post - but only so long as the music file is load on the SD card internally. I am using the analog outputs and going out to a tri-amped setup. Two channels each for the sub woofers, mids and treble.

What I am having trouble with is getting the system to input audio from an external source through the USB card line-in, get processed by ecasound and then output through the analog outputs.

I am fairly comfortable with the command line but I fear my understanding of the inner workings of ALSA are limited.

Thanks, James

Hi,

Posting a reply to my reply. Will the code above in my prior post editing the mdf.conf file break the use of RuneAudio? I am trying to find out if inserting the ecasound code within the mpd.conf will cause problems.

Thanks,

James

Hello again,

I can see in folder mpd-rune there is a mpd .xz file with pipe-out enabled. When I run mpd -V I see that pipe out is not enabled. How do I switch to the pipe out enabled mpd please?

Thanks. James
