I tried the driver but ...

$ LANG=C aplay -l
aplay: device_list:274: no soundcards found...

The PCI card is the original RME PCIe hdsp: https://archiv.rme-audio.de/en/products/hdsp_pci_e_interface.php

I'm sorry. The new snd-hdspe driver does not support this card. In order to do so, I'd need to get access to such card, and they are out of production. The old hdsp driver might still suit your needs though. Let me know. Best, Philippe.

jcelerier commented 2 years ago

are there any thing that I could look at to try to add the support ?

PhilippeBekaert commented 2 years ago

Before doing the effort, Jean-Michael, please check whether the old hdsp driver doesn’t already sufficiently cover your needs. It works with a user space configuration tool named hdspconf and with the hdspmixer.

I redesigned the driver in a oo way, so adding support shouldn’t be too hard and the risk of breaking other card support is low, but first see whether it’s worth the trouble: whether the existing driver isn’t already fine for your purposes.

I’ve been focussing on the current range of hdspe cards, and have one of each available for testing, thanks to amptec.be. I have the info how to drive the older cards, thanks to rme, but I have no access to the cards themselves. And neither do I have access to a computer with pci bus (only pcie).

Best, ph
