[CentOS] alsa asound.conf or .asoundrc that combines multiple playback and capture
I have searched all around and combined items in an /etc/asound.conf file
to have by default a capture and multiple playback for alsa.
I am looking for a way to:
something like "aplay --nonblock test.wav" having at least 2 active
one time
and at that same time do "arecord --nonblock -d 1 input.wav"
I have something like:
pcm.!dmixer {
type dmix # plugin type
ipc_key 5678293 # unique ipc id
ipc_perm 0666 # would like to use icp_group
instead
ipc_key_add_uid no # share the same mixer with all
users
slave {
pcm "hw:0,0"
period_time 0 # needed by oss (= 0)
period_size 1024 # needed by oss (= 2^n)
period_size 8192 # needed by oss (= 2^n)
format S16_LE
rate 48000
}
}
pcm.!dsnoop {
type dsnoop # plugin type
ipc_key 5678293 # unique ipc id
ipc_perm 0666 # would like to use icp_group
instead
ipc_key_add_uid no # share the same mixer with all
users
slave {
pcm "hw:1,0"
period_time 0 # needed by oss (= 0)
period_size 1024 # needed by oss (= 2^n)
period_size 8192 # needed by oss (= 2^n)
format S16_LE
rate 48000
}
}
That sort of works. However when playing a wav file and recording sometimes
I get record overrun errors and then the "-d1" does NOT stop after 1
second.
Does anyone have a working mulitple playback and capture asound.conf
file????
Thanks for sharing if you do.
Jerry
