[please reply to me specifically as I'm not on the email list right now]
I apologize if this is a newbie question which others deem obvious, but I
could not find anything relevant in the email lists.
Will (or at least "Could") the FFADO driver project work with an
iLink-enabled Home Theatre amplifier?
I see various individual devices listed, but I'm not quite sure if these
are controlled more in the sense of, say:
-- a PCI-style driver, with devices and registers that must be
programmed uniquely to each device.
OR
-- a USB-style "generic" driver, but many of them have quirks or
extension features.
...Or is there an "iLink" protocol which is fundamentally different from
what the FFADO driver stack does?
Yeah yeah, some have told me to "just buy a newer amp and use HDMI", but
most of the HDMI drivers in Linux suck, and many have problems with requiring
video to be active/a monitor/TV turned on.
Thanks for your time.
