Hello everyone.

I ordered an Octo from the provided link to Australia China Cooperation Store and it took about 2.5 months to arrive. I have been trying for a couple of days now to get it to work on an RPi4 4gb. I've been reading everything I can find and I would like to get some information consolidated in one thread.

  1. Is this device still supported?

  2. Are there any Octo version issues to be aware of? Mine says:

Audio Inector.net Octo sound card PPI8 v1.16

  1. Is there a combination of RPi model, OS image, exact steps to take, magic incantations, etc... that are known to always work?

  2. Does the Octo work in 64 bit?

  3. Will the Octo work on the new RPi5 or for that matter is there a way to connect it to any other Pi (Orange) as long as the pins are connected to the right stuff? If so, how and what?

  4. Is there any information about installing the driver when it is not possible to use the provided deb file?

Thank you. James.

Following! The instructions on the readme don't work anymore (rpi 4b) I'm slowly working my way through trying combinations of os and kernel, still using the .deb file linked here. I'll post if I get it working, but it would be really helpful if someone had a simple workflow for getting the octo functioning with one of the OS images available from raspberry pi (currently bookworm and bullseye 32 or 64bit). If a different OS image is required, which one, and ideally, where do we get it?

James-Lehman commented 9 months ago

I got the farthest with this image.

https://downloads.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/images/raspbian-2020-02-14/

It doesn't work right. It just makes weird noises on all 8 channels. But at least the kernel modules seemed to load.

If you are going to use the deb installer, you must have a user named pi.

I think it gets messed up at the rpi-update stage when it gets a new kernel.

michaelbbaker commented 9 months ago

Hi James, with the kernel version @flatmax posted in one of the other issue threads, I can get to the weird digital noise point where you're at with Bullseye (32 and 64 bit versions). So it seems like this issue isn't specifically OS related. What I don't get is that when I use old kernel/os combinations that seemed to fix the noise problem for other users, I don't get any further.

James-Lehman commented 9 months ago

I have two of these devices now. The first one got stuck in US Customs, so I ordered another one. They both do the same thing. They just make weird noises on all 8 channels.

Downgrading the kernel worked for me, on the Bullseye Lite (legacy):

sudo rpi-update c145bdde6cf0a4096dc799a9067e05f64b463352

That said, the driver is outdated, it does not work anymore with newer kernels because you get the crackling sound.

James-Lehman commented 7 months ago

Wow!

It took a bit of messing around, but I got the 32bit Bullseye version with the desktop and it works!

rpi-update c145bdde6cf0a4096dc799a9067e05f64b463352

Did the trick!

Thank you!

I've been testing with firmwares. As suggested by jgeskens the card works ok with firmware c145bdde6cf0a4096dc799a9067e05f64b463352, this corresponds to 5.15.65+. You can upgrade to firmware f5c4fc199c8d8423cb427e509563737d1ac21f3c which is the last v5 5.15.92 and the card still works ok.

When running 5.15.65+ or 5.15.92, I always see this error: [ 30.598040] bcm2835-i2s fe203000.i2s: I2S SYNC error! [ 30.745596] bcm2835-i2s fe203000.i2s: I2S SYNC error!

The system mostly survives this message, but sometimes it hangs after posting these messages: [ 256.354900] Internal error: Oops: 96000005 [#1] PREEMPT SMP [ 256.355320] Code: 8b1302b3 b25f7be0 d34cfe73 8b131813 (f9400660)

Once you upgrade to v6, you get distortion. I see this error with v6: [ 13.889229] audioinjector-octo soc:sound: ASoC: driver name too long 'audioinjector-octo-soundcard' -> 'audioinjector-o'
