[alsa-devel] help with idt 92hd206 codec for intel hda?
Hi all, I recently acquired an ECS GF7100PVT-M3 motherboard, which appears to use the IDT 92HD206 codec for HDA. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to have full support under ALSA. It gets detected as another Sigmatel chip. Analog stereo output appears to work, but the mixer doesn't find any of the normal inputs.
I found the tech specs for the chip at http://www.idt.com/products/getDoc.cfm?docID=13461840 I've attached an lspci output and the codec file to this email. I'm not much of an driver hacker, but if someone could give me an idea of what needs to go into the patch_sigmatel.c file to make this thing work, I'd be willing to try. I'm also more than willing to test out patches on my setup.
Thanks in advance for your help. -Greg

The below is an entirely untested patch quickly made from the codec information you posted. Could you give it a try with the latest ALSA HG version?

Well, when I first installed my distro, I managed to get the spdif to output 2 channels. I could only get two channels, unless i sent a raw DTS or AC3 stream for decoding on the receiver end.
Now, on after I reinstalled (changed from raid0 to raid5), I cannot get any audio whatsoever (even via analog outs).
So there are really two separate issues now.
1) Getting audio to work. 2) Getting 6+ Channel audio via spdif.
Should I try applying these patches or should I try compiling ALSA by hand instead of using the distro supplied package?
Also, after looking at the sigmatel patch for hda-intel, the 92xx chips are limited to two channels via spdif... On my first install, I changed the limit, and recompiled by hand. ALSA would then tell me that 6 channels was ok, as opposed to throwing an error, yet I still only got two channels.
Ideas?

SPDIF is limited to 2 channels when using PCM. DTS/AC3 is the only way to get multi-channel out of SPDIF.
Unless you run ADAT, which is 8 channels uncompressed 24bit/48kHz, but I'm not sure that's supported in Linux.

Ok, that's good to know.
So, it looks like I'll either need to encode everything to a DTS/AC3 stream in ALSA before sending via SPDIF, that should work, right?
Also, this is a chip limitation, not an SPDIF limitation, right?
Thanks for the support!

Well, when I first installed my distro, I managed to get the spdif to output 2 channels. I could only get two channels, unless i sent a raw DTS or AC3 stream for decoding on the receiver end.
Now, on after I reinstalled (changed from raid0 to raid5), I cannot get any audio whatsoever (even via analog outs).
So there are really two separate issues now.
- Getting audio to work.
- Getting 6+ Channel audio via spdif.
Should I try applying these patches or should I try compiling ALSA by hand instead of using the distro supplied package?
Also, after looking at the sigmatel patch for hda-intel, the 92xx chips are limited to two channels via spdif... On my first install, I changed the limit, and recompiled by hand. ALSA would then tell me that 6 channels was ok, as opposed to throwing an error, yet I still only got two channels.
Ideas?

I recently purchased an ECS A740GM-M Motherboard which has also an IDT 92HD202 integrated audio chipset.
ALSA is recognizing it as a SigmaTel 9221 A2.
I'm willing to test these patches as well as give any information you

might need.

Chip has nothing to do with it, it's a SPDIF spec limitation. More info here:

Yes, you can encode everything into AC3 and output to your receiver.

Ok, that's good to know.
So, it looks like I'll either need to encode everything to a DTS/AC3 stream in ALSA before sending via SPDIF, that should work, right?
Also, this is a chip limitation, not an SPDIF limitation, right?
Thanks for the support!

SPDIF supports only compressed 5.1 channels. It's no bug.
Now, on after I reinstalled (changed from raid0 to raid5), I cannot get any audio whatsoever (even via analog outs).
Did you check the mixer setup properly? I guess it's rather a setup issue.
So there are really two separate issues now.
- Getting audio to work.
- Getting 6+ Channel audio via spdif.
Should I try applying these patches or should I try compiling ALSA by hand instead of using the distro supplied package?
If the same package and the same version worked, no reason to patch.

Hi Takashi, Steven, et al, My apologies for not getting back to you earlier. I applied the short patch to the hg-20080502 snapshot. That seems to have done the trick. All of the different analog output channels are now available, as well as a bunch of input channels. I only tested output, but that seemed to work. I will hopefully be able to test the inputs this weekend. Given the discussion that I saw, it looks like I won't bother with the digital output. Thanks very much for your help on this. -Greg
