Hi All,

I'm in the process of building HD ready Myth box.
Hw is ASUS P5P800 (i865 + i810 ICH5).

My problem is SPDIF out.

Sound Hw is working OK - it tested SPFIF under Winblows.

Unfortunately under r5d1 I can't set-up SPDIF to work.

"aplay -l" reports that IEC958 in on card 0, dev 4.

Using
"aplay -D hw:0,4 test.wav" gives nothing (no any change, SPDIF is all the time dead).

File is OK, because "aplay -D hw:0,0 test.wav" (this is analog) is playing fine !

So question is: how can I debug and troubleshot this problem ?

many thanx in advance !

Is this even the correct forum?

search google for mythtv spdif - but basically I'd suggest you play with alsamixer. Your spdif output may be muted.

Re:google, the first link I saw even had "unmute" in the synopsis.

good luck
