jmk Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Hi, I'm wondering if I can use your images for running an audio streamer, outputing digital audio via USB Audio Class 2 (for connection to an external DAC). at : http://www.igorpecovnik.com/2014/11/18/olimex-lime-debian-sd-image/ you mention that it does not have audio driver : does this mean that even USB audio cannot be achieved ? If not, any hints on why this is not supported ? Thanks!
seppel Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Use the Version with 3.4.107. As far as i know only the newer Kernel-Versions dont support audio.
Igor Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Image descriptions are only on-board hardware related. It will work with any supported USB DAC. You might need to install base sound utilities which is trivial. And yes, 3.4.x has much better hardware support, audio cards included.
jmk Posted June 17, 2015 Author Posted June 17, 2015 Thanks for the quick replies. Igor, just to avoid any misunderstanding : 4.0 will work with USB DAC ?
Igor Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Thanks for the quick replies. Igor, just to avoid any misunderstanding : 4.0 will work with USB DAC ? Not at the moment. I have to check up on audio part. Maybe we only need to enable it? I just plug in my C-media USB and it's not recognized.
jmk Posted June 17, 2015 Author Posted June 17, 2015 I'm still discovering the code base, but found this : https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib/blob/next/config/linux-sunxi.config#L2807 https://github.com/igorpecovnik/lib/blob/next/config/linux-sunxi-next.config#L2679 This might explain why USB audio is working on 3.4 but not on 4.0.
