I created a file /etc/asound.conf with this in it:
Code:
pcm.swappedw {
type route
slave.pcm "hw:0"
ttable.0.1 1
ttable.1.0 1
}
ctl.swappedw {
type hw
card 0
}
Then indeed, qmmp's alsa output plugin dialog presented a new device "swappedw".
The final "w" is a sign for me that changes in /etc/asound.conf have indeed been noticed by the rest of the system. Every time I change something there, I change that letter, too. And through various attempts, I saw it get "x", "y", "z" and as you see now "w".
But, qmmp's balance slider behaves the same every time. Slide it to the left and sound goes to the right.
I have seen variants of above syntax with a c-like ";" at every line end. But that also didn't work for me. Is ";" just a marker for comments here?
Ok, I would like to swap the channels in ALSA, but I don't know how. Any hints?
