ALC888 - 4x LINEOUTS, 2x MIC, 1x LINEIN, 1x DIGIN 1x DIGOUT

Re: NEW AUDIO SOLUTION FOR ALL ALC888 USERS

well i could bring 2 versions:

1HP, 1LINEOUT, MIC, FMIC, LINEIN
1HP, 3 LINEOUT, DIG IN, DIG OUT

I guess there could be a recording version and no recording version, what do you think Macman? I'm only guessing on the 7.1 as Apple pumps all ports for ALC885 inside the verbs, that's why it gave me a clue to no limitations but maybe there is.

Re: NEW AUDIO SOLUTION FOR ALL ALC888 USERS

What if i do 5 paths maps for first version.

HP swap with Green Lineout
Back Mic Swaps with Front Mic
Linein
Dig In
Dig out

Make sense?

Yeah, I would call this a "Digital" solution.

And for an "Analog" Solution how about this:

• 
  Microphone swaps with Front Panel Microphone
  Line In
  Green Line Out swaps with Front Panel Headphone
  Orange Line Out
  Black Line Out
  Gray Line Out

I will see if it works, I will be only injecting verbs for the ports i use, this way verbs wont get injected for no real reason.

Thanks for the new kext, here are the results for my 888-2.
These sound assertions at startup:

Sound assertion "0 != result" failed in "/SourceCache/AppleHDA/AppleHDA-184.4.3/AppleHDA/AppleHDAWidget.cpp" at line 3794 goto handler
Sound assertion "0 != widget->setUnsolicited ( true )" failed in "/SourceCache/AppleHDA/AppleHDA-184.4.3/AppleHDA/AppleHDACodecGeneric.cpp" at line 1099 goto handler

Then i've got these ports:

Device ID:	0x1458A002
  Audio ID:	3
  Available Devices:
  Headphone:
  Connection:	1/8-Inch Jack
  Line Out:
  Connection:	1/8-Inch Jack
  Line Out:
  Connection:	1/8-Inch Jack
  Line Out:
  Connection:	1/8-Inch Jack
  Internal Microphone:
  Connection:	Internal
  Internal Microphone:
  Connection:	Internal
  Line In:
  Connection:	1/8-Inch Jack
  Headphone:
  Connection:	1/8-Inch Jack
  S/P-DIF Out:
  Connection:	Optical
  S/P-DIF In:
  Connection:	Optical

All analog outs are working. Two microphone ins? Neither one of them doesn't work. Digs and line in are untested. I don't have front panel.

So those are my results.

 

[atleeit]

so both mics nothing? a few errors i cannot remove from as insertion errors due to chamelon but i will see what i can do for these mics.

 

[atleeit]

I changed names to Internal mics because one of the names was none, doesn't affect it though. i'll muck around further but i will keep the 4 lineouts analogue, if i have to remove one times mic i will.

I've tried installing your kext, but still have no audio at all. The only way I've been able to get audio to work is through using a Vodoo kext, but that's just the green line out. I need my Mic input

I'm running a Gigabyte GA-P55A UD3. Could you tell me specifically which kexts I should have where, and any that I shouldn't have at all?

Many thanks go to anyone kind enough to help me

Tried out the kext tonight and here is what I found:
All analogue inputs work great; mic and line in
All analogue outputs work great; no popping or distortion
Digital output does not work at all; iTunes crashes and VLC will not output anything. My receiver receives no signal over Toslink.
