(A GUS for quality, // |a a SB16 for compatibility. :) ) I have used the gus line input // |for SB audio mixing, and put the bktr output into the SB line input. // |Now, how do I tell fxtv which mixer to use ? Assuming /dev/mixer // |as default is not bad, but is too limiting. // // Ok. So do you have: TV Card -> SB Card -> GUS Card -> Audio out // // I can make the mixer and dsp devices used by Fxtv configurable via rsrc. // Just one mixer and one dsp though :-) Consider it on the my list. (I'll // get back to working on fxtv some day.) One mixer is enough. Better: One mixer per instance of fxtv, one on each of my bktr cards. :) Does DirectVideo support more than one program simultaneously ? But even if one of those is forced to map images, there's no problem. It's will not be a common setup. (But Unix is fun with strange setups, not the commom ones.) // | Also, if I wanted to // |use the internal CD audio cable instead of the external and noisy // |line cable to get WinTV sounds into my sound card ? // // Yeah, Luigi's made this request as well and it's on my list. However, with // cascading sound cards like you are, I don't think quality difference // between external and internal will make any real difference. (The Line In // on my SB32 is very low-noise BTW.) Yes, yes. I'm not using it, just thought if fxtv would support doing so. If I did not have a CDROM, I could put the SB output into GUS line input, and bktr output into GUS CD input. But for now I prefer to have more quality on my CD Audio than on TV Audio. Obviously. :) Jonny PS: Fxtv is already much better than WinTV application. With these changes, it will be unbeatable !
