Attached is my updated patchset, which includes the sticky stream/infoframe features.
Thanks, I'll take a look at it as soon as possible.
I've read through the latest set of patches you sent me and also compiled a kernel using them. The patches look good and work great (save for the fact that I still have a 0.2s silence, but it's still a big improvement). I'd be happy to see them go upstream :)
Thank you :)
You mean 0.2s silence, not 0.2s lost of audio samples? I'd say you have smart ears :) Did you compared the playback over HDMI vs over legacy audio and feel the silence at start of HDMI stream?
On a related note, I still think the only way to get a really flawless playback on my picky receiver is to implement some kind of "silentstream" as mentioned earlier (since then I've also tried messing with VCFG and V, but it seems to upset my receiver even more than complete silence since it will take even longer to provide sounds once audio starts flowing again).
Some other drivers seem to support it (though implemented via hardware specific means), one example: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-radeonhd/commit/?id=422ac...
Do you think you could ask your colleagues at Intel to explain how they've implemented silentstream in the windows driver?
Hmm, I'm not sure if it would be possible. I'll check it.
Thanks, Fengguang
